Amadeus

“The man... The music... The madness... The murder... The motion picture.”

Antonio Salieri (F. Murray Abraham) is a disciplined Italian composer in 18th-century Vienna who has spent his life asking God for talent and believes he has earned it. Then Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (Tom Hulce) arrives, a hedonistic young Salzburger whose music comes easily and whose behavior Salieri finds impossible to forgive. Miloš Forman follows the two men as admiration turns to a resentment that Salieri is determined to act on.
