All Is True

All Is True (2018) is a historical drama film that explores the last years of William Shakespeare'ss life. The movie begins with Shakespeare's return to Stratford-upon-Avon after the Globe Theatre burns down during a performanceperformance of his play Henry VIII. Shakespeare, played by Kenneth Branagh, must confront his troubled past and his neglected family, including his wife Anne Hathaway (Judi Dench) and his two daughters, Susanna (Lydia Wilson) and Judith (Kathryn Wilder). The film delves into Shakespeare's relationships with his family, particularly his wife Anne, who feels neglected and isolated due to his long absences in London. The couple's marriage has also been affected by the death of their son Hamnet, who died at the age of 11. Shakespeare's relationship with his daughters is also strained, especially with Judith, who resents her father for not loving her as much as her dead brother. As Shakespeare tries to mend his relationships with his family, he also faces challenges from the outside world. Susanna is accused of adultery and faces a public trial, which leads to a confrontation between Shakespeare and her accuser. Meanwhile, Judith's outspokenness about the role of women in Jacobean England leads to tensions within the family. All Is True features an all-star cast, including Ian McKellen as the Earl of Southampton and Nonso Anozie as Actor playing Aaron. The film was directed by Kenneth Branagh and written by Ben Elship and Ian Power. It premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2018 and received generally positive reviews from critics for its performances and historical accuracy.
