 CORSAGE MOVIE TRAILER 
EMPRESS GOES CRAZY
Corsage is now in German cinemas
We are international today starting with the full, rather bizarre, trailer for CORSAGE historical drama about Austrian empress Sisi which is currently playing in German and Austrian cinemas and will hit Spain and France in winter. Vicky Krieps leads the cast as Empress Elisabeth of Austria in this bold, revisionist Cannes prize winner that uncinches the Sissi legend forever. Empress Elizabeth of Austria was idolized for her beauty and was renowned for inspiring fashion trends but in 1877 Christmas Empress turns 40 and is officially deemed an old woman and she is now desperately trying to maintain her public image. Florian Teichtmeister plays her husband emperor Franz Joseph.
