View "Mozart's Biography"-the story of a genius

Watching a movie, I never expect to have any insights that can be reflected in the so-called film reviews. I just enjoy pouring out the thoughts in my head, as if to forget the scenes that have appeared in my mind.

Mozart, it seems that he was born synonymous with genius, his light is enough to cover the talented musicians of his time. Therefore, it is said that in that lonely Rococo era before the glorious Baroque era, only Mozart was guarded alone.

A teacher once told me that most of those geniuses are neurologically problematic. In other words, most of those who have neurological problems are very close to geniuses. It may sound like a ridiculous theory, but the Mozart shown in the film is indeed a somewhat unreasonable person. Laughter is arrogant, like a madman, rolling frantically on the ground with the girl he likes, saying these disgusting words that make the lover happy. A person whose behavior seems absurd, but when he hears his own music is played, he immediately leaves everything behind and throws himself into the music. This is the awe of music.

I remember the German emperor said in the film that there are too many notes. He said his ears could not hold so many notes. Mozart said that they really should exist, and that's how they existed naturally. In his body, the music inspiration seems to come faster than the recording speed, and it is impossible to record in time. Maybe he is also a container, a container that will overflow at any time. However, his brain can be loaded a lot, because he can excrete them. However, ordinary people cannot understand the mystery after all, and they will only feel too tired.

Most of the film mainly records how Salieri used his various means to make this God's darling sin and step by step into desperation. Even so, this innocent man has always regarded his enemy as his sincere friend. Yes, because he only has music and his own happiness in his eyes, he has no time to take care of too many useless things. He only hopes that his music will be appreciated by others, even if it is not respected by the emperor, even if the music once played in the court can only be an entertainment program for the common people, he is satisfied. He has devoted his whole life to his music.

However, he could not escape the tragedy of reality after all. He has to face his livelihood, he has to take care of his family. He can only keep writing, keep writing, keep trying to record the turbulent melody in his head. Until the last moment of his life, he was still singing the melody in his heart, and his eyes were bloodshot. Later, he said that I would sleep for a while, so this once-in-a-lifetime genius passed away.

What exactly are mortals and geniuses? This question lingering in my head has never been answered. I seem to have gained something in Mozart and Salieri, maybe mortals and geniuses have talents. It's just that mortals will be troubled by external factors so that they sadly find that their talents are exhausted, and even do whatever they can to leave the tail of their talents. On the other hand, geniuses, they just keep playing their talents and never stop.

Therefore, being open-minded is the most basic quality of success. Disturbed by impetuous social emotions, one day, great talents will only be worthless dross.
In a genius, we can see many things that we can never see in ourselves, but we must understand that we are all children of God, God is fair, and He will not let us suffer too much . Just like Mozart, when his body was too painful, God summoned his children to go home. Then, when we are in pain, we have to believe that we can do a lot, and the time has not yet come.

Though we suffer a lot, we can still do a lot.

    In a play if more than one person speaks at the same time, it's just noise, no one can understand a word. But with opera, with music... with music you can have twenty individuals all talking at the same time, and it's not noise, it's a perfect harmony!

    Outstanding existence seems to always have a fateful sadness and helplessness, leaving the world with endless sighs and emotions. God sent him to bring the most beautiful melody to the world, but mankind used the original sin of vanity and jealousy to destroy this gift from heaven. When he passed away, he was impoverished and there was not even a tombstone in his place of sleep. He could only rent a coffin to carry the corpse, and was buried in the same dirt pit as the trafficker's pawn.

Amadeus quotes

  • Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: [suddenly realizing] My music... they started without me!

  • Antonio Salieri: [to Father Vogel] So rose the dreadful ghost from his next and blackest opera. There, on the stage, stood the figure of a dead commander. And I knew, only I understood that the horrifying aparition was Leopold, raised from the dead! Wolfgang had actually summoned up his own father to accuse his son before all the world! It was terrifying and wonderful to watch. And now the madness began in me. The madness of the man splitting in half. Through my influence, I saw to it Don Giovanni was played only five times in Vienna. But in secret, I went to every one of those five, worshipping sounds I alone seem to hear. And hour after hour, as I stood there, understanding how that bitter old man was still possessing his poor son even from beyond the grave. I began to see a way, a terrible way, I could finally triumph over God.
