Director Roland Emmerich explores the mystery surrounding William Shakespeare in this period drama set in Elizabethan England, when tightly-guarded political secrets were often exposed on the stages of London's most prominent theatres. For centuries, historians have searched for clues as to who really wrote the plays credited to Shakespeare. Now, for the first time in film, Emmerich and screenwriter John Orloff offer one possible solution to this enduring enigma.

Reviews
USA Today - ANONYMOUS is a well-acted yarn that also is a tribute to the unstoppable force of art -- even if it implies that only an aristocrat could create it., Daily Express - A gripping historical thriller, Chicago Sun-Times - A splendid experience: the dialogue, the acting, the depiction of London, the lust, jealousy and intrigue., Variety - A handsomely staged and decidedly straight-ahead costume drama
