Wow, what a different era...hard to believe this was only like 110 years ago. The world's changed so much it feels like centuries ago that Europe's royals still truly ruled.
Fun fact: The phrase in 6:49 "Es war sehr schön und hat mich sehr gefreut." ("It was very lovely and I was very delighted.") was something of a typical catchphrase that the old Emperor would often use when talking about his opinion cultural matters. This started after a critic remark of the Emperor about the newly built court opera house caused one of its architects, Eduard Van der Nüll, to commit suicide. From then on, the Emperor, mindful of what impact his judgement could have, refused to give his unfiltered opinion on cultural matters and instead used this phrase, which - after a time - became iconic and one of his trademarks.
Franz Josef was a tough old coot like his colleague Alexander III of Russia. It was a miracle he managed to keep the Empire together during his long reign. Truly one of the strong men of Europe.
FJ I was tough, and he was also very tough on his military, as you probably know if your family served under his reign. No slackers allowed. They didn't tolerate a lot of nonsense. The A-H Empire was a highly militarized society, which is a large part why it held together so long.
@@julbro8451 His military was a joke. Read "A Mad Catastrophe". In the early 1900's they did military exercises that were attended by other countries -- who were shocked to seethey still did Napoleonic maneuvers in the age of the machine gun. He was 0-3 in war. Lost to the French, the Prussians and of course WWI.
In contrast to the other films/series (Like Radetzkymarsch) this is from 50ties Austrian "Heimatfilm" era. An era of feel good nice story films of which many are set in the monarchy - The older Franz Josef tends to be depicted as an elderly father figure. It's mostly historicistic Romances and Romcoms. Romy Schneider was a staple of those films, though she developed into a serious character actress later on - and died too soon unfortunatly. Her most remembered part from that era is not from that film but from the "Sisi Trilogy", a set of three very kitsch romances that shows the early life of Empress Elisabeth as she marries Franz Joseph. So its a bit of an in joke, that Romy Schneiders character in this film meets the elderly Emperor. Some of the other actors also were part of the earlier Sisi productions.
Dream on. These are the people who created WW2. However, not Franz Joseph. You people always want the past even though your ancestors would have been treated horribly by the powerful of that era.
@@SC-gw8np I am sure that you are far better off under the “global oligarchy” than you would have been as a 19th century peasant.

And eventually good things trickle down to the rest of us. Things are steadily getting better for more and more people.
A couple of historical details. The film was probably made at the Hofburg rather than in a set in a studio. If it is a set it is a very good reproduction. The desk on which the Emperor stands was normally occupied by the aide-de-camp. The emperor sat at a large desk to the right. On the aide-de-camp's desk was a log which indicated the names of people coming for an audience and what the issue was. You can still see these things today in Vienna at the imperial palace. i

I'm fluent in German. It is Austrian accent but unlike Swiss German it's more similar to Standard (High) German with a few changes in vocabulary. It can be hard to understand if one has learned standard German as a second language. In German it often depends how strong a local dialect is used. Pure Bavarian or Cologne dialect is very hard to Understand for Northern Germans, for example. It's easier for Americans to understand Aussies and kiwis
@@Dilley_G45 Yeah, it is interesting, Austrian German is closer to Bavarian dialect; which makes sense, since Austrian Germans are practically ethnically identical to Bavarians; they are like brothers, whereas, Austrians are more like cousins to Prussians. Plus, Austrians and Bavarians are Catholic, and Prussians are Calvinists.
Das alter stimmt zwar nicht ganz. Franz Joseph I. wurde 1830 geboren und der Deutschmeistermarsch wurde 1893 komponiert, aber es ist trotzdem ein sehr schöner Film, der sowieso größtenteils fiktiv ist.
Der Hoch- und Deutschmeister-Marsch ist ein österreichischer Militärmarsch, der 1880 komponiert wurde. Die Musik stammt von dem Wiener Kapellmeister Dominik Ertl, der damals im Rahmen seines Militärdienstes als Sologeiger bei der Kapelle des angesehenen k.u.k. Infanterieregiment „Hoch- und Deutschmeister“ Nr. 4 diente.
@@HeinzBecker-ih5fv Es geht hier aber um den Deutschmeister-Regimentsmarsch von Wilhelm August Jurek und der wurde erst 1893 kommentiert. Die werden oft verwechselt.
I wonder what kind of security they had in place to prevent a would be attacker?If some beggar said 'I want to meet the Emperor.' would they say 'Sure thing buddy.'
Can someone translate what Franz Joseph and the girl are saying? I think the scene showed the old practice of people being able to come and meet the Emperor and tell whatever they have on their mind.
Her aunt was the baker for the Emperor (Salzstangerl - a type of white bread crusted with salt). She put a composisition for a new march into the bread (one composed by her lover) to get the Emperors recognition for the new March (for his Deutschmeister Regiment). But because smuggling letters through bread to the Emperor wasn't seen as appropriate her aunt lost the contract as court baker. So the young woman petitions the Emperor to look at the new composition and to reinstate her aunt as the court baker. Naturally the elderly Emperor complies. Esentially it is a comedy about how one of the staple marches of the Austrian Imperial army was created: ruclips.net/video/n0GFr2Mmo0I/видео.html
As pointed out by one of the viewers above, this desk was normally occupied by the aide-de-camp. The kaiser sat at a desk to the right. I don't know quite why the filmmakers decided to stage the scene in this way. By the way, this is not a set, but the real Hofburg.

(Can somebody help me translating the first comment to English, please?) Hi, the automatic translation is not very good and I can't understand very well what you meant, but I'm very interested. Could you please explain it with more details? Translation says: Franz Joseph said to somebody that if that person were Elizabeth, that person wouldn't have died; and therefore, 1st World War wouldn't have happened either... It's that correct? What other person is that? You? Or the translation should be: Franz Joseph said that if Elizabeth didn't died, 1st World War wouldn't have happened? Last sentence is not clear either, who talk at the end? I hope you answer! Thanks!
Mir war klar, dass Franz Josef gelinde gesagt kein sehr freundlicher Mensch war. Mit Ausnahme seines Freundes Wilhelm von Deutschland behandelte er sogar andere europäische Monarchen und Fürsten arrogant😏
Des Kaisers Spruch: "Es war sehr schön und hat mich sehr gefreut" war leeres Gerede, im Endeffekt hat es ihn nie interessiert. Der Totengräber des Habsburgerreichs.
He was no kind, old grandpa. He was a senile old man and an archconservative reactionary, who was completely out of touch with his time and then gambled away an empire, by declaring war on Serbia. Which led to the death of millions.
How nice for you that you don´t have to, or even can , show how to do it better. Besides, the Serbs killed A-H's heir apparent, so what should FJ I. have done? Send them a bunch of flowers or what?

Romy plays a much more sophisticated Sisi in the film, "Ludwig." I think she found that role very refreshing.
As per the Emperor Franz Josef, my late Grandfather Stefan Tercsak said they referred to him as Grandfather.
