I avoided this film for years, under the assumption that it's subject matter was just something that I would absolutely no interest in.

Antonio Salieri believes that Mozart's music is divine. He wishes he was himself as good a musician as Mozart so that he can praise the Lord through composing. But he can't understand why God favored Mozart, such a vulgar creature, to be his instrument. Salieri's envy has made him an enemy of God whose greatness was evident in Mozart. He is set to take revenge.

Pros and Cons of Films: Vol. 1 (121 movies items)

"Pros: Tom Hulce, and F. Murray Abraham The attention to detail, especially the costumes. The music, obviously. It’s one of the best musical and musical bio films ever. Con: Some might take issue, with some of the liberties that movie takes, especially with Saleri."


lkl0117 posted a review 1 year, 6 months ago

“Probablemente, una de mis películas preferidas, la ambientación es excepcional, y el cómo manejan esta rivalidad entre esos dos es bastante increíble, además de los temas que llega a tocar como los celos y el talento, la escena en que componen el réquiem simplemente sublime.” read more

" "All I wanted was to sing to God. He gave me that longing... and then made me mute. Why? Tell me that. If He didn't want me to praise him with music, why implant the desire? Like a lust in my body! And then deny me the talent?" Directed by Milos Forman Written by Peter Shaffer Music by Cinematography by Miroslav Ondrícek Editing by Michael Chandler and Nena Danevic"
