Ludwig der Zweite, König von Bayern (1930)
Historische film over de laatste jaren van Ludwig II van het Beierse leven, dat uiteenvalt door zijn ambitieuze visie op een koninkrijk dat uitsluitend gewijd is aan artistieke perfectie. Het volk keert zich tegen hem, evenals zijn hofhouding, die Ludwig steeds meer isoleert van de buitenwereld. De monarch is geestelijk gestoord en wordt uiteindelijk omringd door vijanden en sterft in de Starnberger See.
Regiseur: William Dieterle
