Anonymous (original title) - 2011
The plot of this film is based on the Shakespeare authorship question that is the argument about whether someone other than William Shakespeare of Stratford-upon-Avon wrote the works attributed to him. The setting was established during the period of the end of the Elizabethan era, the time of political struggle between the whole kingdom and several most influent counts , and so the Tudors dynasty had to protect its name from the poison dagger of Cecil family . And the main hero of this story, Edward de Vere had to live with Cecil family from the early age. His prominent talent woke up just in the beginning of his life, showing us the very stunning depths of his works. He also had an bad opportunity to marry an unloved woman and by the William Cecil he was forced to stop his works and writing at all, because this craft gave some evil seeds ( De Vere came to live in his household as a ward of the Queen at age 12 and became Burghley's son-in-law at age 21) . De Vere later became the Queen's lover (unknown to him – an illegitimate son of her, as the incest act was very common for that time, especially with such woman) . Banned for life , De Vere decided to give his manuscripts to his friend Ben Jonson, but after the dismissed proposal, a young actor William Shakespeare had decided to use his knowledge to blackmail De Vere - a dirty deed, but De Vere had to pay this man a real cash in order to create a mysterious image of anonymous - to be sharp blade of the society in the darkness of robe. William, who was full of bright and audacious plans built the Globe theatre to put "his" plays on its stage. Aa acute and conflict play as "Richard III" , written by De Vere was a first serious step and also a subtle hint of ruthlessness to Cecil family. After Christopher Marlowe's found out the real essence of Shakespeare's inexplicable talents hide the genius of another hand, he was found dead, with his throat slit. The fame of the play made Essex to march with the Earl of Southampton to the Palace in order to capture the castle , but their attempt failed , 'cause of betrayal of Johnson and the queen easily could take them as hostages and the Queen wanted them to be hang on the rope . Robert Cecil told grief de Vere, that he was one of those Elizabeth's bastard sons ( and actually he was the man, who had an incest with her own mother). After the private communication during which the Queen was forced to save Southampton , but de Vere had to be anonymous up to the end and use Shakespeare as a shield. William came to Stratford to become a businessmen, the Queen was dead and the rule gloves came to James I and de Vere finally had died in 1604, giving all his papers to Johnson, but Cecil was in roar and went to the Globe theatre in order to burn it to the stones, but the manuscripts were saved and the essence of a hidden truth was covered by the veil of secret.
Well, I think that this film is very vivid and interesting interpretation of the William Shakespeare authorship question, as it gives us another way to thing and to understand the themes, ideas, conflicts of those people, who were connected with the genius of that "anonymous" - but the issue of manuscripts is very controversial. I can't agree or disagree with such interpretation of such a burning theme, but to my mind the appearance of all these papers with plays and stories give us a chance to understand - that the genius of the Middle Age is a 100% fact.
The cast of this film is extremely accurate, Rhys Ifans as Edward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford was the man of thought and the man of ideas, with such deep look. The whole provoke of Emmerich was rapid and strong, because he was really brave to show this ultimate English question on public. The atmosphere of that epoch was summoned by the mastery of working group . The streets are covered with mud and garbage, poor people in dirty closes, the breath of damned air, stone castles, wooden features, the mess of the Middle was shown really propositional. I liked that film , I liked that story, but nevertheless , even after the escape of that tail - I'm sure, that William Shakespeare was the real author and genius of Elizabethan's time - but this vision was also stunning performance, and there is no any sense to complain Emmerich , because it's not a documentary production - it's a good PSEUDO-historical drama.
