Set in the political snake-pit of Elizabethan England, Anonymous speculates on an issue that has for centuries intrigued
academics and brilliant minds, namely: who was the author of the plays credited to William Shakespeare?
This movie 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 of the throne were
exposed in the most unlikely of places: the London stage.
Rated PG-13. [see
Internet Movie Database description].
