1
00:00:09,375 --> 00:00:11,915
A NETFLIX SERIES
2
00:00:38,375 --> 00:00:39,625
Your Majesty.
3
00:00:40,416 --> 00:00:41,456
It's time.
4
00:01:11,833 --> 00:01:12,833
Sisi!
5
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:17,920
Sisi!
6
00:01:20,291 --> 00:01:21,581
Where are you?
7
00:01:28,333 --> 00:01:29,633
Sisi!
8
00:01:30,916 --> 00:01:33,036
That girl is driving me mad!
9
00:01:35,333 --> 00:01:36,543
Come, hide with me.
10
00:01:38,958 --> 00:01:40,628
Did you look in the cellar?
11
00:01:40,708 --> 00:01:41,708
In the attic?
12
00:01:47,166 --> 00:01:48,576
She isn't dressed yet?
13
00:01:49,708 --> 00:01:53,208
This can't be.
The Duke will be here any minute.
14
00:01:57,708 --> 00:02:00,828
Mother says the Duke
is going to propose to you.
15
00:02:01,416 --> 00:02:02,576
But I don't want him.
16
00:02:02,666 --> 00:02:04,126
Why not?
17
00:02:04,208 --> 00:02:05,918
Have you seen how he dresses?
18
00:02:09,208 --> 00:02:10,208
Are you unwell?
19
00:02:12,083 --> 00:02:14,883
"I'm bleeding to death on the inside."
20
00:02:14,958 --> 00:02:18,078
"All because of this child!
Bring me a schnapps."
21
00:02:21,791 --> 00:02:23,831
-Is she with you?
-No, Mother.
22
00:02:24,541 --> 00:02:25,751
I mean it this time.
23
00:02:25,833 --> 00:02:29,383
We have to bathe her, dress her,
lace her up and fix her awful hair.
24
00:02:29,458 --> 00:02:31,458
I won't allow this to go wrong now.
25
00:02:33,416 --> 00:02:34,326
Sisi!
26
00:02:36,625 --> 00:02:37,625
I'm warning you!
27
00:02:40,458 --> 00:02:42,788
I want a man who satisfies my soul.
28
00:02:44,541 --> 00:02:45,631
Do you understand?
29
00:02:48,750 --> 00:02:49,830
Sisi!
30
00:03:02,333 --> 00:03:03,253
Where is she?
31
00:03:03,333 --> 00:03:06,253
She said she wants a man
who satisfies her soul.
32
00:03:11,625 --> 00:03:13,415
Sisi!
33
00:04:04,583 --> 00:04:06,423
Stay calm, Puck.
34
00:05:21,750 --> 00:05:22,750
Your Majesty?
35
00:05:26,250 --> 00:05:27,250
It's time.
36
00:05:40,333 --> 00:05:43,423
Your Imperial Highness,
I wish you a good morning.
37
00:05:55,375 --> 00:05:56,955
Your Imperial Highness.
38
00:05:57,041 --> 00:05:59,461
-Your Imperial Highness.
-Your Imperial Highness.
39
00:05:59,541 --> 00:06:01,581
After breakfast,
you'll have a brief meeting
40
00:06:01,666 --> 00:06:03,126
with the Bohemian delegation,
41
00:06:03,208 --> 00:06:05,788
followed by the fitting
for the winter wardrobe.
42
00:06:05,875 --> 00:06:07,575
But first, the execution.
43
00:06:08,583 --> 00:06:10,503
Not another fitting.
44
00:06:11,625 --> 00:06:13,285
-Postpone it.
-Very well.
45
00:06:22,583 --> 00:06:23,673
Your Majesty.
46
00:06:25,541 --> 00:06:26,711
Mother.
47
00:06:34,916 --> 00:06:38,376
Always up so early, I hear.
Did you even sleep at all?
48
00:06:38,958 --> 00:06:40,918
This is not a pleasant morning.
49
00:06:41,500 --> 00:06:42,830
You'll get used to it.
50
00:06:42,916 --> 00:06:45,786
I think there are things
one never gets used to.
51
00:07:00,791 --> 00:07:01,881
Come.
52
00:07:02,791 --> 00:07:03,791
Puck.
53
00:07:06,291 --> 00:07:07,751
Everything will be fine.
54
00:07:24,666 --> 00:07:25,496
Father.
55
00:07:26,708 --> 00:07:27,708
Wake up.
56
00:07:31,500 --> 00:07:32,500
I need your help.
57
00:07:37,708 --> 00:07:38,958
Sisi will be here soon.
58
00:07:39,916 --> 00:07:42,456
Morning prayers are very important to her.
59
00:07:43,708 --> 00:07:45,748
She matured over the summer.
60
00:07:46,250 --> 00:07:47,880
She is ready for marriage.
61
00:07:57,333 --> 00:07:59,043
Some more tea, yes? Marie?
62
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:02,460
He took off and fell.
63
00:08:03,541 --> 00:08:05,421
But I don't think it's so bad.
64
00:08:09,541 --> 00:08:11,791
You get into trouble every single day.
65
00:08:13,208 --> 00:08:17,578
What are you even doing out there?
You should be in there getting engaged.
66
00:08:19,666 --> 00:08:22,376
The life she wants me to live,
I don't want it.
67
00:08:23,333 --> 00:08:25,673
There must be something else out there.
68
00:08:32,958 --> 00:08:34,078
What are you doing?
69
00:08:35,541 --> 00:08:36,711
No!
70
00:08:38,250 --> 00:08:39,670
His leg is broken.
71
00:08:40,250 --> 00:08:41,460
It will never heal.
72
00:08:42,416 --> 00:08:43,416
You do it.
73
00:08:44,791 --> 00:08:46,421
He'll get through it.
74
00:08:47,125 --> 00:08:51,455
He'll never be able to walk right again.
What kind of a life is that?
75
00:08:52,916 --> 00:08:55,786
You ignore all the rules.
You do as you please.
76
00:08:56,375 --> 00:08:57,995
Now it's time to pay the price.
77
00:09:28,625 --> 00:09:31,495
"Death does not separate, death unites."
78
00:09:31,583 --> 00:09:33,383
"Life is what separates us."
79
00:09:35,375 --> 00:09:36,785
From Heinrich Heine.
80
00:10:13,625 --> 00:10:15,165
They must see your face.
81
00:10:17,625 --> 00:10:20,575
These are the moments
when a ruler shows strength.
82
00:10:40,333 --> 00:10:41,383
Give us bread!
83
00:10:45,916 --> 00:10:47,206
We are hungry!
84
00:10:50,125 --> 00:10:51,165
Murderer!
85
00:11:01,083 --> 00:11:02,133
Nooses!
86
00:11:06,375 --> 00:11:09,415
Sentenced to death for conspiracy,
87
00:11:10,166 --> 00:11:12,166
revolutionary behaviour,
88
00:11:12,791 --> 00:11:15,921
lèse-majesté and high treason.
89
00:11:17,125 --> 00:11:19,245
Solely His Majesty the Emperor
90
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,710
has the power to pardon the condemned.
91
00:11:29,708 --> 00:11:32,708
Do those condemned to death
have anything to say?
92
00:11:36,375 --> 00:11:38,575
You sit in your palace. We sit in filth.
93
00:11:39,375 --> 00:11:40,535
Your Majesty.
94
00:11:42,125 --> 00:11:43,455
You can kill us,
95
00:11:43,541 --> 00:11:45,131
but it'll do you no good.
96
00:11:47,416 --> 00:11:50,076
-The people will rise against you.
-Yes, we will!
97
00:11:50,166 --> 00:11:51,496
Yes, we will!
98
00:11:52,416 --> 00:11:55,036
-I'm dying for the people.
-Yes!
99
00:11:55,625 --> 00:11:56,785
For the peo--
100
00:12:36,916 --> 00:12:37,916
Shut the door.
101
00:12:40,791 --> 00:12:43,501
Two counts and two dukes
you've driven away.
102
00:12:44,208 --> 00:12:45,578
They were good men.
103
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:53,330
My ulcer.
104
00:12:53,416 --> 00:12:55,246
The doctor says it could burst,
105
00:12:55,333 --> 00:12:57,463
and I'll die because of you, Sisi.
106
00:12:57,541 --> 00:12:58,921
My name is Elisabeth.
107
00:13:05,166 --> 00:13:06,166
You!
108
00:13:10,916 --> 00:13:11,916
Mother?
109
00:13:27,208 --> 00:13:29,578
Why can't you be more like your sister?
110
00:13:29,666 --> 00:13:31,916
What does she do
when something makes her unhappy?
111
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:32,830
I don't know.
112
00:13:32,916 --> 00:13:35,286
Neither do I. That's how it should be.
113
00:13:36,458 --> 00:13:40,208
I want to make my own life decisions.
What is so bad about that?
114
00:13:41,083 --> 00:13:44,503
What do you want to do with your life?
Write poetry?
115
00:13:45,083 --> 00:13:46,293
Why not?
116
00:13:47,500 --> 00:13:49,580
You don't know what it's like out there.
117
00:13:51,458 --> 00:13:53,248
No one's waiting for a girl like you.
118
00:13:59,375 --> 00:14:00,535
You can't force me.
119
00:14:07,666 --> 00:14:11,456
You know there are institutions
for young women who've lost their minds.
120
00:14:11,958 --> 00:14:14,038
An insane asylum? That's excessive.
121
00:14:14,125 --> 00:14:15,375
That's enough!
122
00:14:18,458 --> 00:14:20,498
Helene's future looks bright.
123
00:14:21,333 --> 00:14:23,333
A very special wedding.
124
00:14:23,875 --> 00:14:26,705
And you will not ruin that for us,
understand?
125
00:14:28,833 --> 00:14:30,883
Mother, please, I am not crazy.
126
00:14:32,666 --> 00:14:33,916
Then prove it to me.
127
00:14:53,250 --> 00:14:54,670
What is this?
128
00:14:55,291 --> 00:14:57,791
A ruler who harms himself.
You know how that looks?
129
00:14:57,875 --> 00:14:59,415
I don't enjoy hanging people.
130
00:14:59,500 --> 00:15:02,330
You think I do?
Those people wanted to kill you.
131
00:15:02,416 --> 00:15:05,326
-Not those people.
-But they're future assassins.
132
00:15:07,041 --> 00:15:08,581
There must be another way.
133
00:15:11,208 --> 00:15:12,458
Another way?
134
00:15:15,291 --> 00:15:18,171
Cold winter, bad harvest.
People are hungry and ill.
135
00:15:18,250 --> 00:15:19,960
That leads to riots and hatred.
136
00:15:20,041 --> 00:15:22,211
We cannot hang everyone who is discontent.
137
00:15:23,333 --> 00:15:25,333
There are things even we can't change.
138
00:15:25,416 --> 00:15:27,076
The people's rage.
139
00:15:27,166 --> 00:15:28,826
It is like an illness,
140
00:15:28,916 --> 00:15:29,916
an ulcer.
141
00:15:30,708 --> 00:15:32,828
And ulcers must be cauterized.
142
00:15:44,125 --> 00:15:45,125
What is that?
143
00:15:46,416 --> 00:15:49,126
A gift from Tsar Nicholas
for Your Majesty.
144
00:15:52,041 --> 00:15:53,041
Read it aloud.
145
00:15:58,333 --> 00:16:02,043
"My beloved friend,
may this gift give you strength."
146
00:16:02,125 --> 00:16:06,245
"Even a powerful empire like yours
is easy prey when it is weak and ill."
147
00:16:07,166 --> 00:16:10,206
"Your people need a vision,
a new objective."
148
00:16:10,291 --> 00:16:11,921
"I await your consent
149
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,380
and promise you an empire
where the sun never sets."
150
00:16:19,125 --> 00:16:20,035
How kind.
151
00:16:22,833 --> 00:16:25,883
He wants us to join him
in the war against the Sultan.
152
00:16:25,958 --> 00:16:28,878
The Ottoman Empire is about to collapse.
The time is right.
153
00:16:28,958 --> 00:16:31,878
War is the last thing
our people need right now.
154
00:16:33,250 --> 00:16:35,170
I know what our people need.
155
00:16:42,500 --> 00:16:44,000
Your Imperial Highness.
156
00:16:46,125 --> 00:16:47,165
Please.
157
00:16:50,666 --> 00:16:51,916
Helene from Bavaria.
158
00:16:54,375 --> 00:16:55,705
That's your solution?
159
00:16:55,791 --> 00:16:56,881
I am to marry her?
160
00:16:56,958 --> 00:17:00,078
The people will trust you again
if you give them a bride.
161
00:17:00,166 --> 00:17:02,536
Believe me. And an heir to the throne.
162
00:17:03,041 --> 00:17:05,081
Just take a look at her.
163
00:17:05,166 --> 00:17:08,326
-Helene is pious and beautiful.
-That's not enough for me.
164
00:17:11,416 --> 00:17:12,706
This isn't about you.
165
00:17:13,333 --> 00:17:15,673
The Prussians want our throne.
166
00:17:15,750 --> 00:17:18,670
Napoleon is an imposter.
We won't marry into that.
167
00:17:19,166 --> 00:17:22,326
And aesthetics disqualify
the Belgians' daughters.
168
00:17:24,125 --> 00:17:28,375
A marriage with Bavaria will validate
our claim to the German states.
169
00:17:28,958 --> 00:17:31,078
And it will seem honest.
170
00:17:36,041 --> 00:17:40,381
I didn't fend off the revolution, Franz,
for you to be picky with your brides.
171
00:17:42,750 --> 00:17:46,880
You will meet each other in four weeks
at your birthday celebration in Ischl.
172
00:17:47,625 --> 00:17:49,745
Then we'll announce your engagement.
173
00:17:56,083 --> 00:17:57,713
These are difficult times.
174
00:18:01,375 --> 00:18:03,825
Let's give the people
something to dream about.
175
00:18:41,125 --> 00:18:44,205
All this poetry is why Mother
wants to send you to a madhouse.
176
00:18:47,750 --> 00:18:50,630
If he starts talking to you,
I'll take you with me.
177
00:18:54,166 --> 00:18:55,666
I'm happy you're coming.
178
00:18:58,541 --> 00:19:01,421
She wants to keep an eye on me.
That's all.
179
00:19:02,875 --> 00:19:04,535
I wanted to have you here.
180
00:19:06,166 --> 00:19:06,996
Really?
181
00:19:07,708 --> 00:19:09,208
I'm afraid that you…
182
00:19:10,750 --> 00:19:12,170
that you'll get lost.
183
00:19:14,875 --> 00:19:18,875
No need to worry about me.
You know me. I have thick skin.
184
00:19:18,958 --> 00:19:19,958
No, you don't.
185
00:19:24,625 --> 00:19:25,705
Let me see.
186
00:19:26,333 --> 00:19:27,503
It's not done yet.
187
00:19:28,916 --> 00:19:33,706
"Swallow, lend me your wingsTake me with you to the faraway land
188
00:19:33,791 --> 00:19:36,421
And should I with you soar up there
189
00:19:36,500 --> 00:19:38,830
-In the ever blue firmament-…firmament…
190
00:19:39,458 --> 00:19:42,168
How I then shall ferventlyPraise the god
191
00:19:42,250 --> 00:19:44,000
From whom freedom was sent."
192
00:19:50,750 --> 00:19:52,210
Don't let her see that.
193
00:19:53,916 --> 00:19:55,286
I will be invisible.
194
00:19:56,875 --> 00:19:59,035
I promise. I will behave.
195
00:20:06,208 --> 00:20:07,538
Starting now.
196
00:20:20,291 --> 00:20:22,081
Welcome, Your Royal Highness.
197
00:20:22,916 --> 00:20:23,956
Is the Emperor here?
198
00:20:24,041 --> 00:20:27,581
His Majesty and the Imperial family
aren't expected until tomorrow.
199
00:20:30,833 --> 00:20:33,503
Please prepare some food before I starve.
200
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:41,330
The Emperor is not here to chat,
so no personal questions.
201
00:20:41,416 --> 00:20:45,786
He's not interested in emotions.
No womanly opinions or remarks.
202
00:20:50,666 --> 00:20:51,626
Sisi!
203
00:20:53,458 --> 00:20:55,458
No emotions. Understood.
204
00:20:57,958 --> 00:21:00,828
You know
the Emperor's brothers will also be here.
205
00:21:00,916 --> 00:21:04,326
I'm not hopeful, but sometimes
crumbs fall on the floor for the dog.
206
00:21:04,833 --> 00:21:06,173
Let's go. Hurry up.
207
00:21:06,250 --> 00:21:08,290
You should bathe before bedtime.
208
00:21:14,875 --> 00:21:16,625
Ow! Be careful.
209
00:21:16,708 --> 00:21:20,418
Sorry, soon you'll have
a maid to do this for you.
210
00:21:25,958 --> 00:21:27,628
What if I cannot bear him?
211
00:21:31,291 --> 00:21:34,211
I heard he has hair all over his body,
212
00:21:34,833 --> 00:21:35,923
like a wild boar.
213
00:21:36,666 --> 00:21:39,706
And he loves it
when the ladies scratch his fur.
214
00:21:45,583 --> 00:21:47,173
I'm sure he's a good man.
215
00:21:50,166 --> 00:21:51,786
What if he doesn't like me?
216
00:21:52,916 --> 00:21:53,876
If he…
217
00:21:57,791 --> 00:21:59,211
If he thinks I'm boring?
218
00:22:00,666 --> 00:22:02,376
You'll be a wonderful empress.
219
00:22:03,625 --> 00:22:06,415
You are always elegant
without even trying.
220
00:22:06,500 --> 00:22:08,540
You know what to say and what not to.
221
00:22:08,625 --> 00:22:10,245
Unlike you.
222
00:22:12,666 --> 00:22:15,536
I sometimes wish
I could be a bit more like you.
223
00:22:17,791 --> 00:22:18,751
Come here.
224
00:22:28,333 --> 00:22:29,713
I'm going to miss you.
225
00:22:39,416 --> 00:22:41,166
Good evening, My Emperor.
226
00:22:49,875 --> 00:22:51,665
Is this your secret fantasy?
227
00:22:52,791 --> 00:22:54,131
Your Majesty, the bear
228
00:22:55,291 --> 00:22:57,291
and me, the helpless squirrel?
229
00:23:15,208 --> 00:23:16,248
And if it were?
230
00:23:19,625 --> 00:23:21,995
Whatever floats your boat, I'd say.
231
00:23:23,833 --> 00:23:25,583
I'm no stranger to the abyss.
232
00:23:27,750 --> 00:23:29,170
We don't have much time.
233
00:23:31,625 --> 00:23:32,825
I've heard rumours
234
00:23:32,916 --> 00:23:34,456
you are getting engaged.
235
00:23:36,416 --> 00:23:37,416
Is this her?
236
00:23:38,625 --> 00:23:40,455
She looks very obedient.
237
00:23:41,875 --> 00:23:43,035
Do you like her?
238
00:23:47,708 --> 00:23:50,668
Something isn't right about her.
I wonder what it is.
239
00:23:50,750 --> 00:23:51,580
Come here.
240
00:24:10,125 --> 00:24:11,785
Does she have a moustache?
241
00:24:15,291 --> 00:24:17,961
I haven't seen you laugh in months.
242
00:24:19,625 --> 00:24:22,455
What has to happen for you
to laugh once, My Emperor?
243
00:24:26,625 --> 00:24:29,375
My marriage is about political interests.
244
00:24:31,333 --> 00:24:32,673
And an heir to the throne.
245
00:24:33,916 --> 00:24:35,456
And what are we about?
246
00:24:37,291 --> 00:24:39,081
It's not about love, is it?
247
00:25:20,541 --> 00:25:24,751
Good morning, Your Imperial Highness.
I hope you had a pleasant journey.
248
00:25:26,333 --> 00:25:30,333
-Your Majesty, welcome to Ischl.
-I want to go for a ride before breakfast.
249
00:25:38,375 --> 00:25:39,205
No!
250
00:25:39,708 --> 00:25:40,708
No!
251
00:25:40,791 --> 00:25:42,171
This can't be.
252
00:25:47,333 --> 00:25:49,383
We had one more trunk with us.
253
00:25:49,458 --> 00:25:52,168
Your Highness,
that's all that was on the carriage.
254
00:25:52,250 --> 00:25:54,380
Maybe the other one will arrive later?
255
00:25:55,333 --> 00:25:56,293
This cannot be.
256
00:25:58,750 --> 00:25:59,960
Your funeral clothes?
257
00:26:00,041 --> 00:26:02,541
-Why?
-Uncle Georg died.
258
00:26:02,625 --> 00:26:03,955
Who is Uncle Georg?
259
00:26:04,041 --> 00:26:08,131
-That doesn't matter right now.
-So it's this or dirty clothes?
260
00:26:08,708 --> 00:26:10,668
What you wear won't matter.
261
00:26:10,750 --> 00:26:14,710
Of course, it does! He's the Emperor
and tomorrow is his birthday!
262
00:26:15,666 --> 00:26:18,326
Would you be so kind
and bring me a glass of sherry?
263
00:26:20,291 --> 00:26:24,001
I read that in London and Paris,
all the artists only wear black.
264
00:26:24,083 --> 00:26:27,883
You understand nothing of this!
Please leave us alone for a moment, okay?
265
00:27:01,458 --> 00:27:04,788
-Good morning, Your Royal Highness.
-Good morning.
266
00:27:04,875 --> 00:27:06,825
Good morning, Your Royal Highness.
267
00:27:08,750 --> 00:27:10,830
Come on, pay attention.
268
00:27:16,208 --> 00:27:17,038
Thank you.
269
00:27:26,166 --> 00:27:27,206
Oh my goodness.
270
00:27:55,833 --> 00:27:56,673
Come now.
271
00:28:22,416 --> 00:28:23,576
Why are you hiding?
272
00:28:32,041 --> 00:28:33,081
I'm not hiding.
273
00:28:33,708 --> 00:28:35,828
Do you always do that?
Secretly watch others?
274
00:28:35,916 --> 00:28:37,206
No, Your Majesty.
275
00:28:40,791 --> 00:28:42,461
Where are your shoes?
276
00:28:43,041 --> 00:28:44,131
I like going barefoot.
277
00:28:47,541 --> 00:28:51,001
-Why the bird in your hands?
-Why all the questions this early?
278
00:28:59,458 --> 00:29:03,378
-It was in the villa and couldn't get out.
-I know the feeling.
279
00:29:08,666 --> 00:29:10,036
You are Helene's sister?
280
00:29:11,583 --> 00:29:12,583
Yes, Your Majesty.
281
00:29:20,625 --> 00:29:22,495
Beautiful morning for a ride.
282
00:29:24,500 --> 00:29:27,330
Yes. It helps me think clearly.
283
00:29:28,250 --> 00:29:29,330
I know the feeling.
284
00:29:37,875 --> 00:29:39,075
If you'll excuse me.
285
00:29:40,666 --> 00:29:41,576
Of course.
286
00:30:22,041 --> 00:30:23,501
Your Imperial Highness.
287
00:30:30,625 --> 00:30:32,745
Your family will be delighted.
288
00:30:32,833 --> 00:30:34,463
We'll see about that.
289
00:30:40,125 --> 00:30:41,825
They'll die in Venice
290
00:30:41,916 --> 00:30:44,996
when I tell them I celebrated
the Emperor's birthday here.
291
00:30:45,083 --> 00:30:49,423
Maximilian, what a surprise!
You made it after all.
292
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:52,750
My beautiful boy.
293
00:30:52,833 --> 00:30:54,133
And who is this?
294
00:30:54,875 --> 00:30:58,075
The enchanting Francesca,
Baroness of somewhere.
295
00:30:58,166 --> 00:31:00,416
I thought the Italians couldn't stand us.
296
00:31:00,500 --> 00:31:01,540
This one can.
297
00:31:01,625 --> 00:31:03,245
It's an honour to meet you.
298
00:31:03,333 --> 00:31:06,333
I heard you sowed
your wild oats on your journey.
299
00:31:06,833 --> 00:31:09,423
I hear you've found a new empress.
300
00:31:10,708 --> 00:31:13,038
This is my little brother.
301
00:31:13,125 --> 00:31:15,205
My little brother Ludwig-Viktor.
302
00:31:15,291 --> 00:31:16,421
Hello, little one.
303
00:31:17,416 --> 00:31:20,666
No time to announce she was coming.
It was on the spur of the moment.
304
00:31:20,750 --> 00:31:23,920
Maximilian,
what you do doesn't matter at all.
305
00:31:29,666 --> 00:31:31,916
The guests are waiting in the parlour.
306
00:31:45,208 --> 00:31:47,498
Her Imperial Highness, the Archduchess
307
00:31:47,583 --> 00:31:50,543
and their Imperial Highnesses,
the Archdukes of Austria.
308
00:31:57,458 --> 00:31:59,078
My dear sister.
309
00:31:59,666 --> 00:32:00,706
Sophie.
310
00:32:02,291 --> 00:32:05,001
You must forgive us.
We had a mishap with our clothes.
311
00:32:06,125 --> 00:32:08,125
His Majesty, the Emperor.
312
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:16,130
Ladies.
313
00:32:18,625 --> 00:32:19,535
Your Majesty.
314
00:32:20,416 --> 00:32:22,326
-Your Majesty.
-Your Majesty.
315
00:32:23,291 --> 00:32:24,541
And this is her.
316
00:32:25,208 --> 00:32:26,958
Let him look at you, Helene.
317
00:32:27,666 --> 00:32:29,286
The pleasure is all mine.
318
00:32:32,625 --> 00:32:33,455
And this is?
319
00:32:33,541 --> 00:32:34,921
-Sisi.
-Elisabeth.
320
00:32:38,333 --> 00:32:39,333
How is the bird?
321
00:32:44,375 --> 00:32:46,455
Your Majesty, the table is ready.
322
00:32:46,541 --> 00:32:48,581
Wonderful! Shall we?
323
00:33:06,500 --> 00:33:08,330
The Tsar wants our help
324
00:33:08,875 --> 00:33:11,785
to destroy the Sultan
and divide up the Ottoman Empire.
325
00:33:11,875 --> 00:33:13,955
-But that is a bad idea.
-Why?
326
00:33:14,041 --> 00:33:17,581
The English and French won't allow it.
There'd be an unnecessary war.
327
00:33:17,666 --> 00:33:19,706
Isn't the Habsburg Empire invincible?
328
00:33:23,250 --> 00:33:25,130
No one is invincible, Luzi.
329
00:33:40,833 --> 00:33:44,383
Your hair, Helene,
it is so beautifully braided.
330
00:33:44,958 --> 00:33:46,128
Don't you agree, Franz?
331
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:48,250
Very pretty.
332
00:33:48,333 --> 00:33:49,793
I do it myself.
333
00:33:49,875 --> 00:33:52,285
Helene has never done much work at all.
334
00:33:54,500 --> 00:33:55,630
And you?
335
00:33:55,708 --> 00:33:57,538
Which sister are you?
336
00:33:58,125 --> 00:34:00,035
The boring or the naughty one?
337
00:34:00,125 --> 00:34:01,205
What do you think?
338
00:34:02,750 --> 00:34:03,880
That's what I thought.
339
00:34:05,958 --> 00:34:09,708
And Helene?
Is she the right one for my brother?
340
00:34:11,333 --> 00:34:13,583
I'll leave that
to His Majesty and my sister.
341
00:34:13,666 --> 00:34:14,956
I evaluate all brides.
342
00:34:15,041 --> 00:34:17,251
-Sounds like an important task.
-It is.
343
00:34:24,125 --> 00:34:25,455
You'd make a good wife.
344
00:34:27,041 --> 00:34:27,881
Pardon me?
345
00:34:28,750 --> 00:34:31,580
You'll never get fat.
I can tell from your wrists.
346
00:34:31,666 --> 00:34:34,996
It's different with her.
I'll have to get out of this soon.
347
00:34:36,750 --> 00:34:38,960
Don't worry, she doesn't understand.
348
00:34:40,041 --> 00:34:43,581
-You're as beautiful as a flower.
-Thank you, darling.
349
00:34:52,750 --> 00:34:53,750
Later.
350
00:34:57,375 --> 00:34:58,575
Luziwuzi.
351
00:35:00,083 --> 00:35:01,543
You're ruining my appetite.
352
00:35:02,333 --> 00:35:04,253
Maybe go pet your doll in your room.
353
00:35:04,833 --> 00:35:08,333
That is quite funny.
I wanted to ask you to do the same.
354
00:35:18,958 --> 00:35:22,828
Please forgive me, Your Majesty.
I didn't mean it like that.
355
00:35:28,625 --> 00:35:31,075
Helene speaks excellent Bohemian.
356
00:35:32,041 --> 00:35:34,881
She has also made
excellent progress in French.
357
00:35:34,958 --> 00:35:37,498
-Isn't that right, Helene?
-Yes, Mother.
358
00:35:39,375 --> 00:35:40,535
So…
359
00:35:43,666 --> 00:35:45,996
How about we go for a little walk?
360
00:35:46,625 --> 00:35:49,205
That way,
they could get better acquainted.
361
00:35:49,291 --> 00:35:50,631
Undisturbed.
362
00:35:50,708 --> 00:35:52,708
A walk in the afternoon sun.
363
00:35:53,333 --> 00:35:54,963
An excellent idea.
364
00:36:08,583 --> 00:36:09,423
Mother.
365
00:36:11,125 --> 00:36:12,125
Cuckoo.
366
00:36:15,291 --> 00:36:16,831
That was brazen earlier.
367
00:36:18,083 --> 00:36:19,883
I beg your pardon once again.
368
00:36:19,958 --> 00:36:22,418
No need. You were honest with me.
369
00:36:22,500 --> 00:36:23,790
I liked that.
370
00:36:23,875 --> 00:36:25,075
My pleasure.
371
00:36:25,916 --> 00:36:27,496
Do not be concerned.
372
00:36:27,583 --> 00:36:28,833
He will ask Helene.
373
00:36:29,458 --> 00:36:32,248
Because all the men
in this family do what you say?
374
00:36:32,750 --> 00:36:35,500
Because he knows
it is the right thing to do.
375
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:40,580
Prepare some music for this evening,
my dear Margarete.
376
00:36:41,166 --> 00:36:43,496
Something lively, Highness?
377
00:36:45,125 --> 00:36:48,575
On the contrary.
I'm in the mood for something tender.
378
00:36:49,666 --> 00:36:52,996
Thank you for leaving
the vagabond at home.
379
00:36:53,083 --> 00:36:56,383
My husband bites
when he has to put on real pants.
380
00:36:56,458 --> 00:36:59,998
There's room with my Karl in Auhof,
as I've already told you.
381
00:37:14,958 --> 00:37:16,418
I have a gift for you.
382
00:37:18,750 --> 00:37:19,960
For your birthday.
383
00:37:31,958 --> 00:37:33,208
Did you make this?
384
00:37:34,291 --> 00:37:35,541
Yes, Your Majesty.
385
00:37:38,291 --> 00:37:39,671
Thank you very much.
386
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:48,920
Please.
387
00:37:57,125 --> 00:38:00,665
Once you get to know me,
you'll see I'm not a bad person.
388
00:38:01,250 --> 00:38:02,330
I believe you.
389
00:38:05,666 --> 00:38:08,376
I'm just the black sheep
of the family like you.
390
00:38:16,250 --> 00:38:17,170
Baroness!
391
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:23,290
The Archduke was looking for you.
Look what he picked for you.
392
00:38:27,208 --> 00:38:28,578
Thanks.
393
00:38:30,041 --> 00:38:31,921
-Go!
-Yes, I'm going.
394
00:38:33,375 --> 00:38:35,165
Let's have a toast.
395
00:38:35,875 --> 00:38:38,955
Thank you so much
for coming to Franz Joseph's birthday,
396
00:38:39,041 --> 00:38:41,501
which we'll celebrate together tomorrow.
397
00:38:41,583 --> 00:38:43,003
A new year,
398
00:38:44,333 --> 00:38:45,753
a new chapter.
399
00:38:46,833 --> 00:38:48,463
And to you, dear Helene,
400
00:38:48,541 --> 00:38:51,921
I hope we'll soon have
something big to announce.
401
00:39:00,666 --> 00:39:04,826
He just gave the handkerchief back to me.
And what was that with the bird?
402
00:39:04,916 --> 00:39:06,376
What did he mean?
403
00:39:06,458 --> 00:39:08,878
Nothing.
He saw me this morning in the park.
404
00:39:08,958 --> 00:39:10,328
You two spoke?
405
00:39:10,416 --> 00:39:11,246
No.
406
00:39:12,041 --> 00:39:13,461
Last warning, Sisi.
407
00:39:14,541 --> 00:39:17,001
We have to see if the suitcases are here.
408
00:39:17,083 --> 00:39:20,713
He wanted to know so little about me.
He hardly asked me anything.
409
00:39:20,791 --> 00:39:23,831
All he wants to know is
if you're pretty and polite.
410
00:39:23,916 --> 00:39:26,416
If he wants to learn,
he'll go to the library.
411
00:39:44,333 --> 00:39:47,503
It's good to see you.
I feared you wouldn't make it.
412
00:39:48,833 --> 00:39:51,213
So you wish to marry the Bavarian sheep?
413
00:39:52,500 --> 00:39:53,710
Not a good idea?
414
00:39:53,791 --> 00:39:56,131
Sure, it is. She is perfect for you.
415
00:39:56,208 --> 00:39:58,168
-Not my taste. Too…
-Virtuous?
416
00:39:58,250 --> 00:39:59,250
Predictable.
417
00:40:01,708 --> 00:40:03,078
Tell me about your trip.
418
00:40:03,166 --> 00:40:05,416
Everything's fine with your troops.
419
00:40:06,458 --> 00:40:07,578
And our empire, Franz,
420
00:40:08,333 --> 00:40:09,753
it is so exciting.
421
00:40:10,333 --> 00:40:13,003
-The people are so colourful and diverse.
-I'm glad.
422
00:40:13,083 --> 00:40:15,673
Funnily enough,
they all have one thing in common.
423
00:40:15,750 --> 00:40:16,830
They don't like you.
424
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:21,210
I'm joking, Franz.
425
00:40:22,333 --> 00:40:24,963
But, honestly, I am worried.
426
00:40:26,083 --> 00:40:27,423
We're not well-liked.
427
00:40:27,500 --> 00:40:28,880
Well, you're not.
428
00:40:28,958 --> 00:40:31,458
The general opinion is
that Maman calls the shots
429
00:40:31,541 --> 00:40:34,421
and you shit your pants
when the French or Prussians come.
430
00:40:34,500 --> 00:40:36,540
I say,
"He hasn't shit his pants in years."
431
00:40:36,625 --> 00:40:39,955
-Thank you. That's enough.
-They say you have no vision.
432
00:40:42,166 --> 00:40:43,496
But what do I know?
433
00:40:48,208 --> 00:40:51,958
Let me know when you need me
to dedicate another barn for you.
434
00:40:52,041 --> 00:40:54,501
I want you to return to Vienna with me.
435
00:40:57,416 --> 00:40:58,416
As my counsellor.
436
00:41:05,083 --> 00:41:06,923
I need someone I can trust.
437
00:41:13,291 --> 00:41:14,541
I'll think it over.
438
00:41:45,541 --> 00:41:46,791
Are you unwell?
439
00:41:48,708 --> 00:41:50,828
No, I'm fine.
440
00:41:52,500 --> 00:41:53,540
What are you doing?
441
00:41:54,666 --> 00:41:57,826
It was so hot,
and the floor is nice and cool.
442
00:42:00,375 --> 00:42:01,415
It's soothing.
443
00:42:25,458 --> 00:42:26,458
You're right.
444
00:42:28,083 --> 00:42:29,133
It feels good.
445
00:42:35,041 --> 00:42:37,041
I heard what you said to my brother.
446
00:42:40,875 --> 00:42:41,875
I'm sorry.
447
00:42:42,708 --> 00:42:44,958
Sometimes, I say exactly what I think.
448
00:42:45,583 --> 00:42:47,133
Maybe you could teach me.
449
00:42:54,458 --> 00:42:55,708
You have something there.
450
00:43:00,958 --> 00:43:01,958
It's not mine.
451
00:43:02,625 --> 00:43:04,035
It's braided in.
452
00:43:05,541 --> 00:43:06,751
Whose is it?
453
00:43:08,208 --> 00:43:11,248
Puck's.
So I'll never forget what he was like.
454
00:43:13,208 --> 00:43:14,208
My horse.
455
00:43:19,125 --> 00:43:21,205
Don't tell me I've lost my mind.
456
00:43:22,125 --> 00:43:23,995
I hear that often, but I haven't lost it.
457
00:43:29,416 --> 00:43:32,246
When we were little,
I knocked my brother's tooth out.
458
00:43:33,041 --> 00:43:34,501
I secretly kept it.
459
00:43:35,750 --> 00:43:37,500
Now that's completely crazy.
460
00:43:43,875 --> 00:43:45,205
Does that still hurt?
461
00:43:48,291 --> 00:43:49,131
No.
462
00:44:01,291 --> 00:44:02,381
Thank you.
463
00:44:04,458 --> 00:44:06,078
That was very interesting.
464
00:44:20,250 --> 00:44:24,500
I assume we'll be able to announce
the engagement before we return.
465
00:44:24,583 --> 00:44:27,133
You can begin choosing the court ladies.
466
00:44:27,208 --> 00:44:30,788
I already prepared a list of candidates,
Your Imperial Highness.
467
00:44:30,875 --> 00:44:33,575
But, please,
not just inexperienced birdbrains.
468
00:44:33,666 --> 00:44:37,496
I think we will include
a lady from our ranks amongst them.
469
00:44:37,583 --> 00:44:39,083
Someone with experience.
470
00:44:39,166 --> 00:44:41,956
Very clever, Countess.
471
00:44:42,041 --> 00:44:44,041
But not you, Margarete.
472
00:44:45,291 --> 00:44:46,711
I still need you.
473
00:44:46,791 --> 00:44:49,501
I'm looking forward
to your performance later on.
474
00:44:49,583 --> 00:44:52,673
-Go on ahead.
-With pleasure, Your Imperial Highness.
475
00:45:07,125 --> 00:45:11,205
I think he looks much better
than he does in this picture, don't you?
476
00:45:14,541 --> 00:45:17,331
What is with you?
Are you even listening to me?
477
00:45:18,250 --> 00:45:19,420
Yes, of course.
478
00:45:26,416 --> 00:45:29,206
I can hardly wait for tomorrow to come.
479
00:47:16,375 --> 00:47:19,915
Your Royal Highness.
If you would please follow me.
480
00:47:20,750 --> 00:47:21,750
Me?
481
00:47:44,416 --> 00:47:46,456
Her Royal Highness, the Duchess.
482
00:48:08,750 --> 00:48:11,880
You have me called in the middle
of the night to drink champagne?
483
00:48:12,833 --> 00:48:14,253
It is my birthday.
484
00:48:16,625 --> 00:48:19,035
I wish you a happy birthday, Your Majesty.
485
00:48:24,333 --> 00:48:26,963
I must return
before she realizes I'm gone.
486
00:48:27,041 --> 00:48:27,881
Stay!
487
00:48:30,083 --> 00:48:30,923
Please.
488
00:48:34,166 --> 00:48:37,286
I promised not to cause
any confusion this weekend.
489
00:48:37,791 --> 00:48:39,331
It is too late for that.
490
00:48:48,625 --> 00:48:52,075
Can we abandon the formalities? Elisabeth?
491
00:48:59,041 --> 00:49:00,631
That's your name, right?
492
00:49:03,666 --> 00:49:04,666
Yes.
493
00:49:05,250 --> 00:49:07,380
I just haven't heard it in a while.
494
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:20,880
You reminded me of something today.
495
00:49:23,583 --> 00:49:26,213
You reminded me
of how I was before becoming Emperor.
496
00:49:28,333 --> 00:49:29,923
So how were you back then?
497
00:49:31,500 --> 00:49:32,500
Alive.
498
00:49:46,125 --> 00:49:46,955
No.
499
00:49:47,041 --> 00:49:48,041
No!
500
00:49:53,250 --> 00:49:54,710
You're marrying my sister.
501
00:49:56,166 --> 00:49:57,786
That has been arranged.
502
00:50:00,541 --> 00:50:01,421
But I want you.
503
00:50:07,166 --> 00:50:10,246
Everyone's always told me
what to do my whole life.
504
00:50:14,333 --> 00:50:15,963
I can't do that anymore.
505
00:50:18,750 --> 00:50:20,750
For months I've felt dead, and…
506
00:50:23,333 --> 00:50:24,293
But with you,
507
00:50:25,708 --> 00:50:27,918
I suddenly want to celebrate my birthday.
508
00:50:35,666 --> 00:50:37,036
But you don't know me.
509
00:50:38,875 --> 00:50:41,035
You tell the truth when no one else will.
510
00:50:42,666 --> 00:50:43,626
And…
511
00:50:45,750 --> 00:50:48,130
you don't see things like the others.
512
00:50:54,291 --> 00:50:55,881
I need someone like you.
513
00:52:16,333 --> 00:52:18,133
Long may he live
514
00:52:18,208 --> 00:52:20,248
Long may he live
515
00:52:20,333 --> 00:52:23,633
Long, long, long
516
00:52:23,708 --> 00:52:26,078
Long may he liveLong may he live
517
00:52:26,166 --> 00:52:27,826
Long, long, longMay he live
518
00:52:31,791 --> 00:52:34,381
What luck that our clothes came in time.
519
00:52:34,958 --> 00:52:36,378
Thank you very much.
520
00:52:37,750 --> 00:52:40,500
Thank you all for being here.
I'm very pleased.
521
00:52:45,333 --> 00:52:46,963
I have something to announce.
522
00:52:48,791 --> 00:52:51,381
I'd like to ask a young lady for her hand.
523
00:52:54,541 --> 00:52:55,961
The Duchess in Bavaria…
524
00:53:02,333 --> 00:53:03,213
Elisabeth.
525
00:53:07,916 --> 00:53:08,956
No!
526
00:53:09,041 --> 00:53:10,291
Congratulations.
527
00:53:37,208 --> 00:53:38,168
Cheers.
528
00:53:42,916 --> 00:53:44,206
Please wait!
529
00:53:44,291 --> 00:53:46,291
Please, Helene, I didn't want this.
530
00:53:47,625 --> 00:53:49,535
You must say no, do you hear me?
531
00:53:53,208 --> 00:53:54,288
Please.
532
00:53:55,416 --> 00:53:56,416
Please.
533
00:53:57,375 --> 00:53:58,205
Please say no.
534
00:54:02,166 --> 00:54:04,246
I've never felt anything like this.
535
00:54:08,625 --> 00:54:11,575
Did you sneak into his bed last night
so he'd pick you?
536
00:54:11,666 --> 00:54:12,996
-No.
-Then what happened?
537
00:54:13,083 --> 00:54:15,173
Why would he want to have you?
538
00:54:18,541 --> 00:54:20,921
You will never be able to be an empress.
539
00:54:23,500 --> 00:54:24,830
You will ruin him.
540
00:54:36,541 --> 00:54:40,251
This woman will be the empressof the second-largest empire in Europe.
541
00:54:41,041 --> 00:54:44,501
-You had your fun with your little game.
-It's not a game.
542
00:54:45,958 --> 00:54:48,708
I thought a lot
about which woman is the right one.
543
00:54:54,333 --> 00:54:56,213
Helene is so well-prepared.
544
00:54:57,458 --> 00:55:00,378
She won't cause you any trouble,
Your Majesty.
545
00:55:01,250 --> 00:55:02,670
Sisi is still so…
546
00:55:05,916 --> 00:55:06,916
immature.
547
00:55:13,125 --> 00:55:14,495
Elisabeth or no one.
548
00:55:19,916 --> 00:55:23,496
His Majesty, the Emperor.
Her Imperial Highness, the Archduchess.
549
00:55:31,083 --> 00:55:33,963
Tell your aunt
that this is a misunderstanding.
550
00:55:34,666 --> 00:55:35,496
Immediately.
551
00:55:35,583 --> 00:55:36,583
Enough.
552
00:55:40,208 --> 00:55:42,708
I'm not interested in what the others say.
553
00:55:45,416 --> 00:55:47,536
I want to hear what you have to say.
554
00:55:51,208 --> 00:55:53,538
Do you want to be the Habsburg Empress?
555
00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:05,880
Yes.
556
00:56:24,916 --> 00:56:26,326
Until we meet again.
557
00:56:58,583 --> 00:57:02,333
VIENNA
AUSTRIAN EMPIRE
558
00:57:02,416 --> 00:57:05,286
Your Majesty,
my congratulations on your engagement.
559
00:57:05,375 --> 00:57:06,705
What a great change.
560
00:57:10,333 --> 00:57:12,213
Much more will change, Theo.
561
00:57:13,833 --> 00:57:16,213
You, an empress? Who could believe it?
562
00:57:16,291 --> 00:57:20,131
This will be a lot of work.
You are lucky I know what matters.
563
00:57:20,208 --> 00:57:21,538
Are you listening, Sisi?
564
00:57:24,166 --> 00:57:25,376
Call me Elisabeth.
565
00:57:28,333 --> 00:57:31,173
Do not be concerned,
Your Imperial Highness.
566
00:57:32,041 --> 00:57:34,291
Even the wildest grass can be bent.
567
00:57:34,375 --> 00:57:36,075
I am not concerned.
568
00:57:40,375 --> 00:57:42,995
If something won't bend,
it must be broken.
569
00:58:13,541 --> 00:58:14,381
Get up!
570
00:58:16,625 --> 00:58:17,625
Let me go!
571
00:58:17,708 --> 00:58:19,378
The Emperor has outlawed begging.
572
00:58:33,958 --> 00:58:35,248
We're getting an empress.
573
00:58:39,500 --> 00:58:41,130
WEDDING
FRANZ JOSEF I., ELISABETH
574
00:58:41,208 --> 00:58:43,168
This is the chance we've waited for.
575
00:58:48,333 --> 00:58:49,423
For the people.
576
00:58:52,166 --> 00:58:53,166
For the people.
