Selected clips from a 2010 press conference about the (then) upcoming Shakespeare authorship film Anonymous, featuring a powerful, memorable statement from former Shakespeare Globe Theatre Director Mark Rylance (clip no. 2)


Here is a top ten list from Anonymous director Roland Emmerich on why the
"traditional" Shakespeare (i.e,
Mr. Shaksper, the man from Stratford) wasn't the true author.



This video turned up on You Tube recently. It's author and philosopher John Michell (Who Wrote Shakespeare?) speaking
at a conference in 1995. This is
a major figure in the debate, expounding on the real problems that constitute the "Shakespeare Authorship Mystery."


Here is the streamed video of the Shakespeare Authorship Debate in
England from June 2011, featuring Roland Emmerich, Charles Beauclerk, Stanley Wells, Paul Edmonson, and others. It is available at the debate sponsor English Speaking Union's website. Check it out here, or visit their site.
