What Mayerling Is About
Rudolf, the only heir to the throne of Austria-Hungary, is trapped inside a loveless marriage and inside his father’s empire. Meeting the young Marie Vetsera looks like a way out, but the court is determined to end the affair. Anatole Litvak’s film, adapted from a novel by Claude Anet, deals with something that actually happened in 1889: the two bodies were found on the morning of 30 January at Rudolf’s hunting lodge at Mayerling, and the deaths were officially recorded as suicide. What carries the film now is less the history than the charge between Charles Boyer and Danielle Darrieux.
