Amadeus

My favorite when reading Mozart’s biography is the shameless in the Requiem. In the editing of the movie, this music was used when the wife's speeding carriage appeared. Shameless is divided into two parts AB, and the two parts AB exchanged. The first thing that attracted me was the pause of part A. A certain solemn, rushing, struggling melody held my heart tightly. Then, there is the ligature of part B. I feel that the author has seen a beautiful music produced by a sacred sight that is not part of the human world. The female voice is gentle and full of hope. The image of light and the image of light appear in my mind, covering the darkness. The struggling self in the middle of the world covered the rough hands of destiny in the dark, but the author did not let these end, the pause of the struggle continued to appear, pain, shame, despair, continued struggle... Part B continued to replace it, and the light appeared again, as if It appears longer, as if prayer will take away all despair and shame, as if the world is pure... the voice is getting smaller and the vision disappears, as if eternal hypnosis and peace are coming.
Mozart's coffin was put down, let the sadness of the world come to your heart's content, and the music on the day of weeping sounded. Lamenting, crying instrumental music, tragic harmony, beginning to grow stronger in the middle, the funeral procession seems to be right in front of you, you should leave holy, I should give you the most peaceful blessing, but, the sadness is coming again, gradually strengthening Music is my crying mood, and I sigh for all your retention and sorrow! The final end, in the continuously elongated AMEN, the painful day is over.
In my heart, the Requiem is over, and the music can be rewritten. As a music layman, I feel that everything in the seventh paragraph is over. I can no longer enjoy any subsequent artistic conceptions. This story ends here, yes A complete answer that I can accept in my heart.


In the movie, the essence of the character's charm lies not in Mozart himself, but in Salieri in the story. He believed in God, but felt deeply abandoned by God; he hated Mozart, but regarded Mozart as his idol. He knew the shame of his behavior, he saw all the pain of Mozart, but he still cruelly used his method to end Mozart's life as soon as possible. At the moment of destroying Mozart's life, he also destroyed the face of human struggle and directly chose the distorted and most ugly face. He completely abandoned God and completely put his soul in the abyss of pain. In his eyes, there is actually no essential difference between murdering Mozart and murdering God. Without the wretchedness and pain of human beings, there would be no peace and happiness in heaven. The door of desire can only be closed when the desire is completely burned, and the door of heaven can be opened. It is the most tender kiss that God has left on the forehead of each of His people. Salieri is no exception.

    I can't bear this artificial and neurotic laughter of Mozart...The voices are all saying, "The genius of this great genius is less than twenty-five, come and laugh at me!!!" He wants to laugh two more times and I hate it. The ground directly burned him to death! ! ! ! What a humiliation to Mozart! ! ! ! Except for the clothes, the whole drama is full of American style... It's so disgusting... Both points are the original music for the original Mozart...

    Even though her husband was impoverished, mad and crazy, even if he betrayed his body, he still loved him without hesitation because he was Mozart. Even if this person is a hundred times more talented than himself, even if he hates him and gritted his teeth with hatred, but because of his talent, he still helps him indefinitely. Even if he is already in the doldrums, even if there is no one in the world to visit his music temple, but because he believes in himself, he still creates creations one after another. To say that God has given enough to be jealous of talents.

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.
