when he was born and baptized, he was named Joannes Chrysost[omus] Wolfgangus Theophilus. Theophilus means "God's Love". This name is equivalent to Gottlieb in German, Amedeo in Italian and Amadeus in Latin, but no one has called him by this name during his lifetime. Now, the name Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart we know as Mozart is the name Mozart uses on formal occasions.
After watching this film, I am afraid that people who are not familiar with classical music, such as me, will also be moved by the brilliance of genius. People say that music is the common language of the world, perhaps because music touches the common emotions of mankind. Mozart is indeed a genius. He wrote minuet at the age of six and completed his first opera at the age of eleven. As the court composer Antonio Salieri said in the film: "The hymn full of joy and love is the voice of God (Figaro's wedding)." God chose Mozart as a tool for evangelism in the world.
The Mozart in the movie is so dazzling. Before seeing Mozart for the first time, Antonio Salieri bet with himself: Will that peerless genius show up on his face? Who would have thought that what he encountered turned out to be a urchin rolling all over the floor. Watching this movie was recommended by his classmates. He said that he was most impressed by Mozart’s laughter in the film. It was sharp and hearty. When he first met with the Holy Roman Emperor Joseph II, he laughed wildly from time to time. He once shocked the emperor and his court musicians from ear to ear, just like his outstanding musical talent. In the film, Mozart is always as innocent, kind and romantic as his music and his laughter. In this way, everything is logical, shouldn't geniuses be like this? If Mozart is not such a person, can he write beautiful and romantic music? If a genius is as meticulous and intriguing as a mortal, what kind of dim black will his music be? Yes! Mozart should be like this. When Mozart in the film directed his own work, he used his body language to fully express the joy, anger, sorrow and joy of the work, exuding an angel-like brilliance, and the laughter that frightened the emperor. It also indicates that his music creation across the ages will shake the world.
Watching this film which won 8 Oscars 20 years later, I think its success lies in the "contrast". The film portrays two completely different images of the composers, one is pure, kind, and rebellious Mozart-he is hailed as the darling of God. One is the insidious, hypocritical, and jealous of Mozart's palace musician Salieri-a man who is an enemy of God. As a result, genius fights against mediocrity, friendship fights frame-up, sincere fights hypocrisy, and even in Antonio Salieri’s mind, there is probably a war between admiration and jealousy. He is in the final confession. Also said "I feel like I have become two people." So, who is the winner of this confrontation? As Antonio Salieri said at the end of the film: "No one will play my music after I die, but when Mozart is dead, his music will be immortal." In the insane asylum, he kept confessing: "I killed Mozart!" and he kept yelling: "I forgive you! Mediocrity!" Yes, he killed Mozart, but even though he only had short In his 35 years of life, Mozart is still one of the most prolific composers. There is such a greatness that can obliterate the flesh and cannot cover it. You have to say that Mozart may indeed be the "favor of God" for no one before and no one to come.
I don't want to discuss the death of Mozart in the film too much, because in historical facts, Antonio Salieri was innocent, and Mozart died of a rash infection (but indeed, his death is related to the overwork). What I want to say is that the scene of the movement written by Mozart and Salieri before his death in the film is undoubtedly a classic scene in the movie. In this scene, the dramatic tension has reached an unprecedented height: the "Mediocre" court. The composer, the ghostwriter of the "genius" on the sickbed that he carefully planned and murdered, was dictated by Mozart and recorded by Salieri. The beautiful and turbulent music was written into a score in this way. There is no doubt that Salieri admired this Genius, in the film, he is also the only person who can understand Mozart’s music, as he himself said, "I am jealous of this music. I used my power to make it only perform 5 shows, but I secretly come every time. hear". Salieri understood the beauty of Mozart’s music, but was crazy jealous of him. In the last moments of Mozart’s life, when he listened to the enemy’s dictation and recorded notes, when he was suddenly enlightened under the guidance of the enemy, He was very excited about the music, especially when Mozart apologized to him at the end, what was his mood? From this point of view, "I forgive you, mediocrity!" Salieri's life is the real tragedy, and Mozart, although he was buried in haste, will be remembered by future generations.
The death of a genius is unclear, because some people still don't understand that the physical death of a genius is really not that important.
