Summary:
"
Amadeus
triumphs as gripping human
drama
, sumptuous period epic, glorious celebration of the music of
Wolfgang
Amadeus
Mozart
--
& as the winner of eight 1984 Academy Awards, including Best Picture (produced by Saul Zaentz), Actor (F. Murray Abraham), Director (Milos Forman) & Adapted Screenplay (Peter Shaffer). It's 1781 & Antonio Salieri (Abraham) is the competent court composer to Emperor Joseph II. When
Mozart
(Oscar nominee Tom Hulce) arrives at court, Salieri is horrified to discover that the godlike musical gifts he desires for himself have been bestowed on a bawdy, impish jokester. Mad with envy, he plots to destroy
Mozart
by any means. Perhaps even murder."--Container.
