For the hundredth year anniversary of the assassination of the Archduke Ferdinand and his wife Sophie. Yes, the actors dont nearly match the youthful age of the actual leaders, but this is still entertaining. Archduke was only 51, and literally caught a bomb thrown at him, you know the kind thats round with a fuse on top, like an outfielder, and chucked it out of his limo before it could hurt Sophie. Caught it mid-air. He was upset that he did not deflect it well enough, that it hurt a policeman, that he demanded to travel once again through assassin filled Belgrade to visit that policeman in the hospital and thank him for risking his life to defend the Archduke. This is the chivalry that died in WWI.
