Overview

On September 10, 1898, Empress Elisabeth of Austria was tragically assassinated in Geneva. Since then, this illustrious empress has fascinated adults and children alike. A century later, we present to you a historical documentary on the exceptional destiny of this legendary empress. Her legendary beauty, her charm and her independence of mind, her thirst for travel and her passion for sports were as magical as they were dramatic, but the memory she left behind for eternity is that of a woman close to all. This film highlights the political role of Empress Elisabeth, neglected by historians, as well as her tastes and passions. The important stages of her life are also widely mentioned, such as her marriage to the young Emperor Franz Joseph, the disappearance of her cousin King Ludwig II of Bavaria and the tragedy of Mayerling.

Sisi/Last Minute

Sep 19, 1991

The immature young ruler of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Franz Joseph, was extremely shy around women but (according to this film) was constantly being propositioned, lewdly or otherwise, by ambitious courtesans. When he was finally married to his Empress, the teen-aged Bavarian princess Sisi (Elizabeth), it seems that his relief knew no bounds, for he was now sure that he would never have to think about sex ever again. According to the filmmakers, this is the true history of that marriage. This story is a complete reversal of the romantic legend depicted in the popular 1955 film Sissi, which helped brighten the emerging stardom of Romy Schneider.
