Sinopsis:

    En el marco del derrumbamiento del imperio austro-húngaro sobreviene la tragedia del joven Alfred Redl, quien ingresa en el ejército, ascendiendo de forma meteórica para tener, años después, un terrible final. Redl llega al grado de coronel en la carrera militar y es asignado a los servicios de contraespionaje, donde realiza una impecable labor. Su condición de homosexual, que trata de mantener oculta, será el detonante de una estrepitosa caída.

Comentario personal:

    El húngaro István Szabó dirige esta trágica historia, inspirada en una obra de teatro de John Osborne que, a su vez, se basa en hechos reales. Segundo título de una trilogía sobre el imperio austro-húngaro, precedido por ’Mephisto’ y seguido de ’Hanussen’.

AMG SYNOPSIS: Oberst Redl is the latest movie version of an oft-filmed tale, based on a true story. Redl (Klaus Maria Brandauer), a poverty-stricken Ukrainian of the early 20th century, laboriously works his way into the highest circles of the Imperial Austrian Army. Throughout his upward ascent, Redl is able to keep his homosexuality from becoming public knowledge. Because of his mastery of several languages, Redl is sent by Emperor Franz Joseph to spy on the Russians. Playing one country against the other, Redl enjoys the sexual and monetary favors from both sides of the espionage spectrum until word of his gayness leaks out and he is blackmailed. To pay off his accusers, Redl is obliged to increase his counter-espionage activities on behalf of the Russians. Finally trapped by his many deceptions, Redl is given the option of killing himself to save his honor (Hal Erickson).

AMG REVIEW: The second film in the trilogy made by director Istvan Szabo and actor Klaus Maria Brandauer -- hammocked between Mephisto and Hanussen -- Colonel Redl continues Mephisto's fascination with a man overwhelmed by history. In that film, Brandauer played an actor who tried to ignore the rise of the Third Reich, and here he's an ambitious military officer in pre-World War I Austria whose career path is set early on. In military school, he's forced to inform on a student who's the source of a practical joke; though he beats himself up for being a Judas, he soon realizes that to rise in the ranks he must overcome his peasant background and hide his homosexuality by ingratiating himself with his superiors. Though he professes to hate politics and politicians, Redl also can't avoid them. When the Archduke Ferdinand (Armin Mueller-Stahl), for whom Redl is supposedly spying among the officer corps, draws up a list of who can't be exposed for traitorous activities (including Austrian nobles, Hungarians, Czechs, Serbs, Croatians, and even the usual scapegoats, Jews -- the aftershocks of the Dreyfuss affair are still rumbling), he tells Redl that he must find a double of himself, a Ukrainian. Now certain that he will be exposed, Redl surrenders to fate, quoting to his wife from Montaigne: "It's no sin to be involved. It's a sin to remain involved." Brandauer is a wonder as the self-loathing Redl, and Szabo's camera picks up every nuance on his expressive face. The film eschews music except for several party scenes, and the absence of a score is most effective in the final shots of Redl's fellow officers awaiting his fate (Tom Wiener).
