ANONYMOS Refletion

In this play it gave us a different view on who actually wrote the plays that William Shakespeare is known for writing.  I'm not really sure which one to believe though.  On the one hand I've always been told they were written by William Shakespeare.  On the other hand this movie gave a very good insight into their belief that William didn't write it.
Assuming that it is historically accurate it is very believable based on how it happened.  The Earl can't be known for writing but yet he was the son of Queen Elizabeth who loved plays, so he was born loving plays.  I think that it is plausible for this to be the true story.  However, I think that Shakespeare actually wrote the plays.  I think it is hard to tell for me because I like the backstory of how it happened, but on the story that Shakespeare wrote it I have no background info to know for sure.

  1. It is definitly plausable but I don't think it is probable. I would say there is not enough evidence to say that he didn't write them, so I'm just gonna keep thinking he did. This movie sucked anyways.

  2. Your right, theres a possibility he didn't write them, but theres no solid proof that thats the case. Also, Queen Elizabeth had several different illegitimate kids, so who knows which were hers?

  3. Honestly, We shouldn't focus on who did what and who did who. The plays are still written and the future will always remember that it was Shakespeare who wrote them.

  4. I totally agree with Liam on that one. I think the movie was very good, kinda dragging at parts, but it was an interesting tale. I think that Shakespeare wrote them though, because that seems more plausible than some wealthy nobleman pretty much starting a war over writing.
