If you haven't seen this great movie, go watch it! If you have seen it, watch it again!

For Salieri, Mozart is a mirror of moral depravity and orgies.
——The Chronicle of San Francisco

"Mozart" not only allows you to have the pleasure of watching a movie, but also allows you to witness a disturbing reality.
--Chicago Sun-Times

"Mozart" is a rare film, as evidenced by its near-perfect script, beautiful music, elegant images, extraordinary performance, dazzling director, and compelling story.
——The film critic

"Mozart" is a work of wit and grandeur, indisputable. ——The behind-the- scenes production of
Apollo Movie Navigation changed the tradition of depicting classical musicians as "perfect people" or "saints", subverted the "golden movement" started by his wife after Mozart's death, and restored his innocence. The contradiction between the perfect life and the perfect music. The film, which won seven Oscars (57th), can be considered a biography of two musicians, along with Mozart and his colleague Salieri. The film reflects Mozart's mad genius through Salieri's point of view. The film's location is the director's hometown of Prague, the European city least devastated by World War II and where many of Mozart's works premiered. The film has gorgeous sets and costumes; as for the acting, the two leading men had a similar infighting of their characters during filming, but the actor who played Salieri ended up winning the Oscar for Best Actor. In 2003, the famous Italian singer Bartoli released a record of Salieri's works, proving that he is not the mediocrity described in the film. 【New version, new understanding】






In 1984, "Mozart" won eight Oscars, including the most valuable Best Picture award. It's a testament to the greatness of this movie, even though there are many great movies that don't get that recognition.
In director Foreman's latest cut, many of the opera scenes have been expanded, and at least half of the shots have been reworked so that we can gain a deeper understanding of the film and its characters.
Many viewers who have seen the older version may wonder why Mozart's wife, Constance, has such a bitter hatred for Salieri. The latest version clearly explains it. Indeed, these newly added scenes prove that Elizabeth Bridge is a great actor, but this greatness has been sealed for nearly eighteen years. She could have gotten an Oscar.
When we watch the latest version of a familiar movie, we always focus on those new scenes and modifications, but perhaps so carelessly that we ignore its overall power. Don't forget that the whole is our purpose.
Today, perhaps the most memorable of Mozart's biography remains Abraham's performance, Salieri, who flashes back in confession to tell his story with Mozart. This earned him an Oscar for Best Actor. In the latest version, his power is not lost, however, for Tom Hughes, who plays Mozart, there is an updated explanation.
According to Saliered, Hux portrayed Mozart as an obscene child who was selfish and immature. But at the same time, Hughes also created a creative genius, a heart-wrenching genius that audiences will probably never forget, the vacuous look in Mozart's dying scene, which is heartbreaking. It wasn't easy for Hux to do this, perhaps, that power came from God.

[Painful Soul]

Whenever and wherever someone mentions Mozart's name to Salieri, he always stops, and people must feel the pain in his heart, the pain in his perception of Mozart's genius.
For Salieri, Mozart is a mirror of moral depravity and revelry. In his efforts to stop and destroy Mozart, he jumped off a moral cliff. But both his depravity and ecstasy came from an honest perception of music, and perhaps, along with sin, only he could understand Mozart at that time.

【Honor】

In 1985, "Mozart" won eleven Oscar nominations, and finally won eight. At the end of the ceremony, Lawrence Oliver took to the stage to announce the Best Picture award. In expressing his gratitude to the Academy Awards committee, he had already opened the envelope and, instead of announcing the nominees, shouted, "The winning film is Mozart." The
film also had an impact on pop music and musicians . A very famous example is Austrian pop singer Falcao's "Mozart, Let Me Rock! "The birth of this song, this single caused a sensation in the music world in 1985. A Finnish heavy metal band even quoted Salieri to promote their single "Heart of War," which read, "From now on, we're enemies, you and me."
Abraham in the 1993 film Plays John Plunketts in Heroes of the Phantom. A young boy, Danny, tells Schwarzenegger not to trust Abraham because he killed Mozart. Schwarzenegger asked, "In the movie?" Danny replied, "Mozart! Eight Oscars."

    @电影音乐大师展 I feel that the most awesome thing about a musician is that he can use the music written before his death to arrange a biographical film that people write for him after his death.

    When a mediocre meets a genius, only jealousy is left after envy! There are two places in the film that impressed me particularly deeply: one is Mozart’s smile, and the other is the sweetness of Mozart’s wife. It’s so sweet~~

Amadeus quotes

  • Constanze Mozart: Wolfie, I think you really are going mad. You work like a slave for that idiot actor who won't give you a penny. And here, this is not a ghost! This is a real man who puts down real money. Why on earth won't you finish it? Can you give me one reason I can understand?

    Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: It's killing me.

  • Antonio Salieri: All I wanted was to sing to God. He gave me that longing... and then made me mute. Why? Tell me that. If He didn't want me to praise him with music, why implant the desire? Like a lust in my body! And then deny me the talent?
