I really want someone to make a more accurate show about Suleiman The Magnificent and Hurrem Sultan. I enjoy the Magnificent Century but it's not very accurate and majorly down plays how much of an impact Hurrem had on Suleiman the Emperor and history.

People asking why is it dubbed: Because it allows for more accessibility for more viewers. Some people are sight-impaired and can only hear; if they include audio description with this it will be very helpful. There are also those who have a hard time with subtitles due to other disabilities or eye-sigh issues. Something to consider. Especially when Netflix usually offers their shows in both languages with subtitles. so you'll likely be just fine.

idk, I have questions already about her characterisation. From what I understand Sissi was a shy, quiet and very beautiful woman. This Sissi is shown throwing things at people, forcing guards to open gates. The scene where her mother in law says that if she won't bend she'll have to break kind of confirms what I suspect. Sissi was young, coupled with the quiet personality, there was no need for breaking when Sissi was easily made to bend to her mother-in-laws will. Not even her husband did anything. She was a great woman who was strong and made vital contributions for her country, but I didn't get the image that she was so fiery like is portrayed here. She had more of a quiet strength. Or am I wrong?

I'm very curious about this series and if they will take the "fairy tale" version of the movies or if they stay closer to the historical facts. Hopefully, it's going to be the latter - even if I suspect that a lot of people would like her character less in this regard. I used to be obsessed with the empress Elisabeth when I was a teenager and I learned everything about her that I could find. I hope, the romance is not to exaggerated, because from Elisabeth's side, it definitely wasn't as strong as from Franz-Joseph's perspective. Sure, she fell in love with him in the beginning or at least had a strong crush (after all, he was the emperor and he was good looking and showed a lot of interest in her - any fifteen year sold girl would be affected by that), but later on, she preferred to spend her life farther away from him. Also, she didn't like to sleep with him. For her, it was just a chore that she had to do out of duty. She even picked a mistress for him, so that he could satisfy his needs without her having to take part in that. Therefore, some historians think, that she might have been asexual. Others suspect that she might have been lesbian, because she collected pictures of beautiful women from all over the world. But since there is no proof for either of these claims no one knows for certain. Also, she wasn't the perfect and self-sacrificing mother the movies portray her as. She actually didn't really care about her children (except for her last daughter, who got all her love and care that the older siblings had to miss out on). Yes, she fought to have a say about the education of her son Rudolf (which probably saved his life, since his original teacher was to harsh and brutal for his weak constitution and made him ill), but she linked those demands to her own freedom and after she won and installed his new teachers, she abandoned him and traveled the world instead. Furthermore, she had an eating disorder. She was obsessed with her own beauty and had a strict diet and exercised obsessively. In a time, when the beauty standard was still seen as having a corpulent body (as to show off the fact, that you had enough money to buy a lot of expensive food), she was the first who started to steer it into the other direction. Due to her slim waist she was called "the fairy empress" by the people and she wanted to be remembered as young and beautiful. Therefore she never allowed for pictures to be taken of her or painted after she reached her thirties. No one should ever see her old.
@larkmacgregor3143

It's not exactly true that she didn't care for her children. Her mother-in-law, the Archduchess Sophie, after Sisi's first child, a daughter, died in infancy, literally took each of her children from her to raise herself, saying that Sisi being an awful mother was the cause of her daughter's death, and rarely allowed her anywhere near them. Franz-Joseph did nothing to stop her. In truth, Sophie hated Sisi, and this was just another way of her abusing the "wrong" choice her son made. Her youngest daughter was born *after* Archduchess Sophie died, and so was the only child she actually got to raise. Sisi had severe mental health issues, succumbing for long periods to depression, and possibly to OCD and anorexia, though no one knows for sure. The poor woman had an absolutely miserable life. Hungary was the only place she felt free, so she lived there apart from Franz-Joseph most of the time, returning to Vienna only when she absolutely had to. She was an intelligent, free-spirited woman who had never wanted to be Empress, in a time when women were expected to be ornaments and bear children, with no wills of their own, no say over her own fate. As for Rudolf, she made sure that he followed her father's progressive path, hoping to have the rest of the empire enjoy the sort of rule she shepherded in Hungary, and she never recovered from his suicide. How tragic that her fate should foreshadow the fate of the entire empire.

She could have had a form of anorexia, but it could have been some form of bulimia as well, since she also had moments where she ate very much (though they were very few). She didn't vomit after eating, but the excessive exercise she did daily can also be a symptom for that, since this also is a way of getting rid of the calories again. Concerning taking the children from her, I had heard contradicting opinions and versions. Some say that they were taken from her against her will by Sophie, but others say that, since it was a common practice back then, that the queen or empress didn't deal with her own children and the "grandmother" and other people took the job, Elisabeth wasn't bothered by it that much. Yes, Elisabeth was very intelligent and free-spirited. In many ways, her mindset and way of thinking had been far more modern than the ones of the court. I really love, how many facets there are to her. She is not the perfect heroine of this love story, as it is presented very often. In the end, I can imagine, that even if she would have been disappointed at first (and might have suffered some heard break), she might have had a much happier life, if Franz-Joseph had followed his mothers wishes and married Elisabeth's sister.

The notion that 19th c europeans beauty standards were more into bigger bodies is a 20th c invention. It's more broadly true that prior to ~aboutish~ the turn to the 20th c, fashion tended to focus more on acquiring (via structured garments) the correct curve, rather than sheer size. But that varies significantly? Among modern era Europeans, the first popular diet I know of that was *explicitly* for weight loss was in 18th c England, and there are earlier ones couched in more complex ideology (like today's "wellness" language). The earliest cases I know of European women (of the modern era) being praised for their thinness-as-beautiful was in 15th c Italy, though having that extant may have more to do with the advent of proto celebrity culture than with that being actually the earliest occurrence. (Also, this isn't really a refutation, but myb a sympathetic reframing. In the modern era, research into eating disorders suggest they often have less to do with vanity and are much more about ppl's attempt to assert control when they feel helpless in their lives. Kinda seems like she was in a shitty/abusive situation? Which also makes sense with the various other symptoms of anxiety & perhaps-ocd-or-similar? Which would be cool to see on screen if they can avoid either romanticizing or villainizing.)

Honestly I don’t understand why so many tv shows and films are made about her.( there’s another Sisi tv show came out in 2021) and a film will come out in 2023! But honestly her life is sad if you think of it…. Except for the young love part she had with Franz. But then it all turns sad😭 there must be another royal woman for the media to focus on in films we haven’t heard much aboit

As an austrian, on one side i am pleased to see our pride being brought to big screens, on another i do not see any particularly beautiful woman here?? Sisi had looong curly brown hair she was very proud of and she was obsessed with her own beauty. She had a mad diet and would beat the hands of the maid, if her one hair will fall when she was being brushed. She was also acknowledged as one of the most beautiful women of her time while here is someone average... Pity, they did not find a better fit actress. True, she was quite a snowflake who did not even participate in children's upbringing and the Mother-Empress was very critical of her. But i see they made her a rebel here... I do not think that's the right image, but lets see the series....

Like wtf Netflix, do you really think that sissi kissed Franz the night before the engament??? You were supposed to show how tormented she was learning that she was picked to become empress, SHE HAD NO CHOICE! instead, the show deliberetly makes her look like she wanted this! So stupid! I'm not blaming the actors but the one that also came up with the script did such a bad job! Like the main couple on their first encounter weren't supposed to know each other. That's why Sissi liked franz in the first place, because she taugh he was a stable boy or whatever!

Elisabeth, Empress of Austria was a famed beauty who shared the title of the "Two Most Beautiful Ladies named Elisabeth" with Elisabeth of Hesse and by Rhine, who was later Grand Duchess Elisabeth of Russia (who was then later named Saint Elisabeth as she gave up her luxurious life for a life of service to the church). Both beautiful women who lived a life of splendor but both died because of the common people.

Watching this series actually made me discover something really cool that I didn’t know before (I’m currently only into ep 3). This past May I was in Jerusalem as a pilgrim, and one night I was wandering around the old city with my friends and stumbled upon a building named the Austrian Hospice. One of my friends is a history nerd especially on the Austrian & German, and as pilgrims who wanted to take advantage of our status (we were allowed into several other institutional/religious buildings as pilgrims previously) decided to visit this place. It had a locked gate like any other buildings in the city with a few teenage boys hanging outside the door, we rang the bell and a few seconds later was unlocked for us. We went inside and was greeted by the receptionist. Knowing that we weren’t going to be questioned for our intention to come inside, we began exploring. I then discovered a chapel, a really beautiful room with highly decorated insignias of all the previous emperors (Including Franz Joseph of whom I knew nothing about at that time) of Austria on both sides of the wall, as well as beautiful paintings and statues. We spent some time in prayer and later walked around the building for a few minutes. The next day we came back during our free time to smoke cigars in the court yard. Here’s the cool part. After I watched the second episode of this series, I was curious about the historical part so I began looking a few of these people. It then sparked my memory of the Austrian hospice in Jerusalem and made me wonder if it had any connection with the characters in the series. So then I read the history of the hospice. Little did I know that Franz Joseph I actually stayed there during his pilgrimage in 1869, which was a very symbolic act, since he was the first European monarch to visit the Holy Land since the end of the Crusader Empire. It was originally built as a consulate in the midddle of the 19th cent by Austria in order to consolidate its political influence. It was definitely a neat experience to have, now realizing how much impact both Franz and the hospice on the history of the world especially WW1 being the biggest one.
