Plot: In the 1890s, Clarence Darrow was a corporate railroad lawyer who had a crisis of conscience when he saw the plight of the underprivileged. In response, Darrow quits to fight in the courts on their behalf. In a career that would mark him as the Lawyer for the Damned, we follow Darrow's life through his highs like his labor victories to the low of the hopeless McNamara trial that got him indicted for jury tampering. After all that, he rebuilds his life as a master criminal defense lawyer that would lead him to one of his greatest cases with the Leopold and Loeb trial.

Plot: In London, August 1914, Austrian star Elsa Duranyi (Gertrude Michael) and English matinee idol Alan Barclay (Herbert Marshall) are in love and plan an immediate marriage. But the War comes and Elsa mysteriously disappears. Alan's ease in speaking German results in his appointment to the British Intelligence and, to aid his use as a spy, they announce he was killed in action. He takes the name and personality of "shell-shocked" Hans Teller, a German prisoner, and is sent into Germany on an exchange of prisoners. Elsa, now a spy in the service of the Fatherland, is in Monte Carlo, where Allied officers on leave can be tempted into revealing war secrets. In Germany, Alan, posing as Teller, is listed as unfit for service, contacts Carl Schrottle (Rod LaRocque), another British agent. They are to locate the German "Big Bertha," the long-range gun bombarding Paris. They are successful and the gun is destroyed. Elsa is recalled and given the assignment of locating the British spy organization and its members. Through her surveillance of Carl, she meets Hans Teller and recognizes him as Alan, but doesn't let on. Alone, she agrees to flee to Holland with him but her superior officer, Ludwig (Lionel Atwill), is not fooled and is in pursuit.

Genres: Comedy,Im Allgemeinen beschränkt sich die öffentliche Wahrnehmung von Ludwig II. auf das Klischee des verrückten Märchenkönigs, der Wagner verehrte und Steuergelder an Fantasiebauten verschwendete. Im Grunde trifft diese Beschreibung auch auf Luchino Viscontis Ludwig zu. Doch der italienische Regisseur hat sein Porträt des bayerischen Monarchen nicht auf populäre Stereotypen reduziert, sondern die reale Gestalt zum Anlass genommen, das Scheitern eines ästhetischen Traumes in stilvollen Bildern zu zelebrieren. Der Film setzt ein, als Ludwig im Alter von 19 Jahren zum König gekrönt wird. Man lernt ihn als scheuen jungen Mann kennen, der von guten Absichten geleitet sich der Verantwortung seiner Position stellen will. Doch die Routine des Regierens interessiert ihn kaum, denn ihn leitet die Vision e...

Fan of Richard Wagner, betrayed by him, in love with his cousin Elisabeth of Austria, abandonned by her, tormented by his homosexuality, he will little by little slip towards madness.

Darsteller: König Ludwig - Helmut Berger Prinzessin Sophie - Sonia Petrovna Richard Wagner - Trevor Howard
Em uma colagem visual, sonora e histórica, Syberberg literalmente disseca a vida de Ludwig II da Baviera, enfocando seu envolvimento com Richard Wagner, as crises constitucionais, as relações européias, seu antagonismo com a industrialização, seus problemas com a Prússia, sua fixação em construir castelos e palácios, seu isolamento e fantasias irrealizáveis. No filme, Ludwig morre três mortes: a real, a oficial e a espiritual.
Romy Schneider diesmal nicht als die klischeehafte "Sissi", trotzdem in der gleichen Rolle, nämlich als "Kaiserin Elisabeth von Österreich" und Helmut Berger als Ludwig II. in der Verfilmung von Luchino Visconti
(Alemagne / France / Italie - 1972 - 3h55 - version intégrale) Avec Helmut Berger, Romy Schneider, Trevor Howard, Silvana Mangano Sortie le 3 août 2011 En 1864, Louis II de Bavière est couronné roi. Il n'a que 19 ans et ne s'intéresse guère à la politique, préférant la musique et la littérature. La même année, il fait la connaissance de son idole, Richard Wagner, et décide de subvenir à ses besoins ainsi qu'à ceux du chef d'orchestre Hans von Bülow et de sa femme Cosima. Mais quand il apprend que Wagner et cette dernière sont amants, il prie le compositeur de quitter Munich. Bien que son pays soit en guerre contre la Prusse, Louis II se désintéresse totalement du sujet, préférant courtiser sa cousine l'impératrice d'Autriche...
