Mayerling
Austria's Crown Prince Rudolf and Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria disagree on how to forward the country's progressive agenda. Soon, Rudolf comes to feel like a man born in the wrong period in a society that doesn't understand the need for social transformation. Prince of Wales (later King Edward VII of England) adds lightheartedness. Instead of staying in an unhappy marriage with Princess Stéphanie, Rudolf has a mistress, the Baroness Maria Vetsera. Their tragic end at the imperial family's hunting lodge, Mayerling, is shrouded in mystery.
