Amadeus
The Man... The Music... The Madness... The Murder... The Motion Picture.
Directed by Miloš Forman
Produced by The Saul Zaentz Company
A grand, visually sumptuous exploration of genius, envy, and the corrosive nature of resentment, told through the eyes of a talented man consumed by jealousy of a greater talent.
Disciplined Italian composer Antonio Salieri becomes consumed by jealousy and resentment towards the hedonistic and remarkably talented young Salzburger composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
