Review of Anonymous (2011) by David Denby for New Yorker — 23 Oct 2011
The Oxford theory is ridiculous, yet the filmmakers go all the way with it, producing endless scenes of indecipherable court intrigue in dark, smoky rooms, and a fashion show of ruffs, farthingales, and halberds.
The more far-fetched the idea, it seems, the more strenuous the effort to pass it off as authentic.
