Anonymous

Set in the political snake-pit of Elizabethan England, Anonymous speculates on an issue that has for centuries intrigued academics and brilliant minds… who was the author of the plays credited to William Shakespeare? Anonymous poses one possible answer, focusing on a time when cloak-and-dagger political intrigue, illicit romances in the Royal Court, and the schemes of greedy nobles hungry for the power were exposed in the most unlikely of places: the London stage.

Special Features:

• Commentary with Director Roland Emmerich and Writer John Orloff
• Who Is The Real William Shakespeare?

Critic Reviews:

• " A wonderful hypothetical about the identity of William Shakespeare, Anonymous is incredibly credible, a story of intrigue and facades. " – Andrew L. Urban

• " I felt absolutely drawn along in this film. I had a really boisterous, Elizabethan good time. " – Margaret Pomeranz

• " This film is not really about promoting an alternate theory of authorship so much as presenting an intriguing (if unlikely) scenario and seeing how it would play out. It makes for a ripping good story, whether or not it's factual. " – Christopher Lloyd
