Posing as a cinematic promotion of the Oxfordian theory of Shakespeare's authorship, which contends that Edward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford, wrote the plays and poems traditionally attributed to William Shakespeare, Emmerich's ANONYMOUS, chasing a victory of its closest cousin SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE...

A product of Shakespeare's "skeptical" identity, he believes that the entire script was written by Edward Weir, Earl of Oxford, who was the illegitimate son and lover of Elizabeth I. The plot seems to be very "dog blood", but there is also some historical evidence. The whole film is well-made, the actors are excellent, and it is worth watching. Compared with Shakespeare's movie "It's All True" that I watched a few days ago, I am more willing to believe the speculation of this film. We directors, like playwrights, have always cherished works of art as their own children. Why didn't the old Shakespeare leave any last words or writings on his main "children" in his life? How come the manuscripts of so many masterpieces are not left? Such a brilliant masterpiece is completely inconsistent with his origin, family, and educational background? The drama series was only published by others 10 years after his death, which is indeed full of doubts! Knowing that Shakespeare's authorship has been debated for a long time, there are not many skeptical supporters. Even if the author is him, there should be an explanation for these anomalies. Continue to read books and movies on both sides as a "deep reading", which is also a joy in old age and during epidemics!
