Empress Elizabeth or Sissi has inspired many books, movies and even a musical. The early Romy Schneider version was especially loved by teenage girls. She had a complicated life, about there is much to say. It eludes me why you would choose a historical figure and then tell a story that is far off the historical facts. The anachronisms of music and props, and also of facts and personages become annoying. There is hardly a story line or a plot and the end is totally absurd. The film does not become interesting or gripping at any point. A superfluous and unnecessary addition to the movie library.
