What happens

The Crown Prince (German: Kronprinz Rudolfs letzte Liebe; French: Prince Rodolphe: L'Héritier de Sissi; Italian: Il destino di un principe) is an Austrian-German-French-Italian television film from 2006 and deals with the last ten years of the life of the Austrian Crown Prince Rudolf von Habsburg. The film was co-produced by EOS Entertainment and MR Film for Degeto Film, ORF, and RAI. For German television, the 180-minute two-part series was shortened by around 75 minutes and shown under the same title as a one-part film reduced to the romance with Mary Vetsera. It was broadcast in Austria by ORF, in Germany by ARD and in Italy by RAI. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
