Amadeus, the most beautiful scene

[@DoubleGauss]

The priest is one of the most under appreciated actors in the movie. He just sits quietly making faces as Salieri talks, but his expressions are important to the flow of emotions as the story unfolds.

My favorite scenes are when it cuts back to Salieri's retelling with the priest. He is such a fan of Mozart he can't help himself. His vocabulary and command of language is so perfect it somehow takes me to the point of laughing with tears in my eyes. He is such a mess but shines brighter describing Mozart than any other time in the film. It is like he was waiting his whole life to finally cry out to God, from his heart, for once.

[@seejayjames]

Exactly...it's like he desperately wants to hate Mozart because he's such a petulant child, but Salieri's true passion is music, and he can't dent how incredible Mozart is with it. He's at once unbelievably jealous and in awe. Incredible acting on both parts, but especially Salieri's...particularly the subtle expressions of emotion as he reads through his music and tells the priest about it.

[@dennisvillegas]

Before I used to think that Tom Hulce (Mozart), should have gotten the Oscar for Best Actor, but now every time I watch this movie (for the 88 times I think), I completely agree that Murray Abraham was well deserving to be the Best Actor..very convincing Salieri..bravura performance from start to finish

[@abehambino]

Agreed, and it actually does work in a historical context better than its critics admit. That Salieri at least once claimed that he killed Mozart is as far as I can find accepted. I see this movie as a dramatization of his delusions on the subject.

[@robertlappa3142]

Well, it really is filled with so many inaccuracies in order to entertain. Nearly all great composers of previous ages had fascinating lives, filled with enough intrigue, humor and passion without the need for total fabrication. Like Immortal Beloved or Impromptu. Hollywood manages to trivialize, sexualize and dumb down most histories. I loved Amadeus as a young man, but thankfully I understand the differences between total entertainment and history. Many walked away from the play and the film mis-informed. Entertained, but sadly mis-informed on Mozart, Salieri, Vienna and the entire true and fascinating stories of these people and this era.

[@thomashogan16]

The most beautiful scene in this film is when Constanzia brings Mozart's sheet music to Salieri, who then sight reads it in his mind. In shock, he drops the music to the floor and leaves for another room and throws a crucifix into the fireplace declaring, "Now we are enemies!" My heart stood still when I first saw this.The whole movie then made sense.

[@MivusComedy]

Suzanne Murphy (the soprano singing the aria) is FLAWLESS. Other sopranos specially in the highest notes of the score become lazy and just make one continuous sound rather than proper form. This woman on the other hand hit every single note with precision and grace. Truly my favorite soprano of all time!

[@jamescollinson2179]

Mozart singing his opera along with the performers as he conducts is wonderful. He's like a child playing with his new toys on Christmas morning. Compare this to his visible emotional pain later in the film as he conducts Don Giovanni.

[@MichaelHeath-vu3iy]

OH, YES! He's wildly pumping his fists and grinning ear to ear during "The Abduction from the Seraglio"! And the way he's meeting lustful eyes with Caterina Cavalieri during it... And then compare his emotional pain with his emotional AND physical pain when conducting "Die Zauberflöte," where he collapses and is carried to his deathbed.

[@babyeyelashes3415]

I know you wrote this comment several years ago, but I wanted to say that I love his pink wig too! I don't know how historically accurate in fashion that wig would be. Most of us know Hollywood takes artistic liberties. I think that the wig is a nod to the modern hair styles that were popular at the time (1980's). It reminds me of the new wave band members hair. A flock of seagulls comes to mind. Mozart was young and very forward thinking. I think he would approve of a pink wig and probably enjoy modern times if he were to time travel. Sorry to ramble on.

This is one of my favorite films. Class always music is my guilty musical pleasure. Especially this scene's music because of them tempo and passion that Mozart put into this.

Bottomline - noone knows where he is buried. No place to bring flowers to and commemorate him. This is what saddens me. Thanks for the info, though.

Everyone is fantastic in Amadeus Mozart. Love this movie.
