A Waste of Shame: The Mystery of Shakespeare and His Sonnets
Opis filmu
Opis oryginalny: angielski
1609: Shakespeare is struggling to complete his sonnets while plague rages. He sees the body of a young child and remembers the moment in 1596 when he learned of the illness of his son Hamnet Shakespeare while rehearsing a play in London. Returning to Stratford-upon-Avon he was subjected to abuse from his shrewish wife Anne Hathaway (Shakespeare) for neglecting them by living in the capital. His son died, and an embarrassing argument between his father John Shakespeare and Anne disrupted the funeral. John later told him that the family was in financial difficulties. William agreed to pay off the debt, but to do so he had to return to London.
