The new film Anonymous is annoying. Not because it is good or bad - I am sure it is well made - but because it promotes a stupid thesis. ie that someone else wrote the plays attributed to Shakespeare.
Sigh.
No. They. Didn't.
The contemporary secondary evidence, primary textual evidence, and the character and consistency of the texts all say this is a stupid idea.
It is only promoted by people who don't believe lower class people can't be creative or clever.
