For this film adaptation of Peter Shaffer's Broadway hit,
director Milos Forman returned to the city of Prague that he'd left
behind during the Czech political crises of 1968, bringing along
his usual cinematographer and fellow Czech expatriate, Miroslav
Ondricek. Amadeus is an expansion of a Viennese urban legend
concerning the death of 18th-century musical genius Wolfgang
Amadeus Mozart. From the vantage point of an insane asylum, aging
royal composer Salieri (F. Murray Abraham) recalls the events of
three decades earlier, when the young Mozart (Tom Hulce) first
gained favor in the court of Austrian emperor Joseph II (Jeffrey
Jones). Salieri was incensed that God would bless so vulgar and
obnoxious a young snipe as Mozart with divine genius. Why was
Salieri--so disciplined, so devoted to his art, and so willing to
toady to his superiors--not touched by God? Unable to match
Mozart's talent, Salieri uses his influence in court to sabotage
the young upstart's career. Disguising himself as a mysterious
benefactor, Salieri commissions the backbreaking Requiem, which
eventually costs Mozart his health, wealth, and life. Among the
film's many pearls of dialogue, the best line goes to the Emperor,
who rejects a Mozart composition on the grounds that it has too
many notes. Amadeus won eight Academy Awards, including Best
Picture, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Actor for
F. Murray Abraham. In 2002, the film received a theatrical
re-release as Amadeus: The Director's Cut, a version that includes
20 minutes of additional footage. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie
