Amadeus


1984 Milos Forman tour de force starring F. Murray Abraham, Tom Hulce.
Adaptation of Peter Shaffer's play about Mozart and Salieri who, jealous of the composer's popularity and talent, was suspected of poisoning Mozart.
The acting is superb, the music incredible ( come on, it's Mozart) but what's fascinating is how this film works on so many different levels: from a bio pic standpoint, a look at the nature of creativity, an exploration of faith, and more.
An amzing film about an amazing talent.
