I studied Empress Sisi whilst at the University of Vienna,, many Austrians were shocked I was unfamiliar with her because she was so widely admired. The Sisi Museum is dedicated to her that was very popular. Her life was so tragic, but she’s seen as “the people’s Queen” similarly to Princess Diana. And she’s a symbol of resistance, not only in Austria but in surrounding countries, particularly Hungary.
This was… beautiful. I wish there were some sort of tv show based around her life that didn’t try to create a narrative around her or anything of the sort but just… showed her life as it was. I feel like there is potential for some profoundly beautiful cinema that can come from her biopic. That is, if the writers and directors actually pay attention to that person’s real life instead of “being inspired by it”
I've always loved Empress Sisi, I think people judge her too harshly, because they often forget that she was very young, and she couldn't choose her own spouse.
