Ludwig
Ludwig. He loved women. He loved men. He lived as controversially as he ruled. But he did not care what the world thought. He was the world.
Caligula without the togas. Ascending to the throne of Bavaria at 18, young Ludwig pursues Wagnerian fantasy and royal absolutism to operatic extremes. The film is a hothouse of aristocratic decadence, a feast of Visconti's obsessions, and Helmut Berger's haunted beauty.
