Ludwig - Requiem for a Virgin King
From the creative mind of Hans Jurgen Syberberg comes this highly imaginative interpretation of the life of mad King Ludwig II of Bavaria. In the mode of Syberberg s unique masterpiece Our Hitler, the film consists of a series of sketches and tableaux with cabaret music, Oscar-nominated costumes, and colorful characters. Star Harry Baer, one of Rainer Werner Fassbinder s favorite actors, offers a strikingly original portrait of Ludwig.
