rubbish

There's a lot of good evidence that shakespeare never wrote the plays he's given credit for. Apart from his plays, his will is the only surviving piece of evidence he even existed so making an accurate film of his life seems pretty unlikely. There are no copies of his plays written in shakespeare's hand that exist today. His handwritten will is the only evidence that he ever lived. How is it possible that for hundreds of years we've been taught shakespeare was the greatest english writer? I dunno. Ask lance armstrong. Producing films like this certainly helps perpetuate the myth.

Excellent film! Student-approved!

Most of the students in my advanced class on literature and documentary films highly praised this work, often calling it one of the best films we had viewed all term.
