Review of Ludwig (1973) by Miriam W — 26 Jul 2007
I bow to Visconti and Berger. This biography of the most famous Bavarian king is clearing up all sappy and cheesy myths that might exist. His madness Ludwig II was a fascinating figure, twisted bipolar mind, visionary and provider of the much frequented castle Neuschwanstein.
The set design, lightning and costumes are excellent. Romy Schneider is again playing the Austrian Empress Elisabeth, but thanks to Visconti far away from that 50s-Sissi-Kitsch.
