"Ludwig and Otto"
www.bfi.org.uk/gallery/visconti/ludwig.html
The Ludwig of the film's title, Ludwig (1973), is Ludwig II, King of Bavaria, sometimes known as the Mad King and sometimes known as the Virgin King. The film tells the story of his reluctant assumption of the duties of kingship, his love of art, and his tormented discovery of his own homosexuality, with all the consequences this had for the survival of his dynasty in the new order dominated by Bismarck's Prussia.
