Comments

EdmanXERO

Danny: "Watch it Jack! He killed Mozart!" Jack Slater: "In a movie?" Danny: "Amadeus, it won 8 Oscars!" - from "Last Action Hero". 🤣

Matthew Maxon

I haven't seen this in years. Going to be great to watch it with your reactions.

Micah Mann

OMG! Incredible movie. Hope you enjoy.

Backlog Andy M.

There waa classic 80s song around this time, ROCK ME AMADEUS 😆😅

TBR Schmitt

Yes!! Hope you enjoy the rewatch, Micah! -Sam

PIG

Brightened my day. Really looking forward to your reaction and thoughts.

Smooticus

Always happy to see movies made before '88 that aren't action pics get more love. Some more tragically under appreciated ones are- Mississippi Burning The Year of Living Dangerously Eight Men Out Salvador Under Fire Year of the Dragon Breaker Morant Gallipoli The Right Stuff Paris, Tx The Mission And many many more

Smooticus

Watching this tomorrow night...unless Eagles/Cowboys is a drag, the I'm switching over

Florian Meier

All Great Ones !!! Mississippi Burning is my Favorite of these !!

Florian Meier

Love this Classic ... Maybe you have the Chance one Day to Visit Vienna ... Great City ... Also the Song from Falco "Rock Me Amadeus" was such a Big Hit

Florian Meier

We live in the Near of Austria Andy ;) Rock Me Amadeus is still played in The Radio ;)

Backlog Andy M.

Wow! Austria 🇦🇹 is on my bucket 🪣 list.

Steve Mercier

Absolutely spectacular movie...based on a lie. Salieri didn't really plot to kill Mozart. But who fucking cares!!? This movie is goddamn magnificent anyway. "I speak for all mediocrities in the world! I am their champion. I am their patron saint." The slender line between brilliance and the capacity to recognize it hangs like a noose where human ambition and ego come into play. Good shit.

Ellie Williams

I never think badly about any current fashion trend because nothing will be crazier than grown men all over Europe wearing stupid white wigs for over a century.

Ellie Williams

A couple more things. 1. This movie makes the strong case that nitpicking historical accuracy is wildly unimportant. The movie being entertaining and emotionally moving is what is important. 2. I love the scenes where people give Mozart their "reviews" of his work. This is one of the great geniuses in history and the foolish people around him think their opinions of him should matter. Perhaps all of our opinions and reviews and comments are inconsequential. Time is the ultimate critic. All that matters is the whether the music/movie/art will last.

Donna Castellano

I cannot wait to watch the reaction. Unfortunately, I have to wait til tomorrow night, after work. 😭. But thank you so much for putting this on the poll and I'm so glad other members wanted to see a reaction too. Hope you both enjoyed it!

Paul Cox

I know you guys were googling a little during the outro, but I wonder if you clocked where else you know F. Murray Abraham from. He's almost always giving an MVP performance, and he's great in Last Action Hero and Scarface, but my other favorite performance of his—neck and neck with Salieri—is playing the elder Zero in Grand Budapest Hotel. I get teary every time when he says he never speaks of Agatha, because I know why. So thrilled that you both enjoyed this. Next time, give the extended version a whirl and see which you prefer. Strong pros and minimal cons for both versions.

Great film! Saw a bit of this movie in a class years ago. Loved finally getting a chance to watch it in full with you guys! 😁

Backlog Andy M.

Actress Meg Tilly of The Big Chill was originally cast as Mozarts wife. And apparently fantastic in rehearsals. But she was on location playing soccer ⚽️ in the street with some local boys. And badly injured her leg. And was recast!

Jen Barnes

I love this movie, my favorite part is when Mozart and Salieri work together. Salieri gets to witness the genius in real time. Beautiful! Also, Mozart was buried in a "common" grave, very typical of the middle class in those days.

Yann Laliberte

I love this movie. I went and see a presentation featuring a live orchestra. The scene when Salieri looks at the originals was amazing. The orchestra going from one piece to another without skipping a beat was mesmerizing. I also went to see the Requiem here at the Notre Dame Basilica in Montreal and this will forever be imprintend in my brain. A little bit of trivia, I think I saw a doc that showed that the venue where theyr filmed Magic Flute was an authentic theater where Mozart really played. Oh and I did not read the comments but I am certain someone already told you that, NO, this is not accurate at all. Mozart had pupils, Salieri was a respected composer and taught Beethoven among others and he was good friend with Mozart. But this movie is pure entertainment and should not be taken at face value.

I was so excited to watch this reaction! Amadeus is among my favorite all time films and Mozart is up there with Beethoven as a favorite composer. He was buried in what they called a pauper’s grave, for people who can’t afford an individual grave and headstone. I noticed the metal crosses in the graveyard, indicating it was for poor people since a metal cross is much cheaper than a carved headstone. This was written by Peter Shaffer, considered to be one of the greatest playwrights of the 20th century. It’s entirely made up, the rivalry between Mozart and Salieri, but made for great storytelling. Mozart was a sickly person who suffered various illnesses all his life, and he did die very young. I love that composition scene too, reflecting Mozart’s musical genius. You picked up that the Emperor’s sister was Marie Antoinette, who was murdered during the French Revolution - I don’t think any other reactors realized that. There is a film about Beethoven, “Immortal Beloved”, and he suffered great abuse from his father, another tragic story of musical genius. Really enjoyed your reaction - Dan was smiling a lot throughout the film!

Pam Nail

This is in my all-time top ten. The scene where Mozart is dictating "Confutatis" to Salieri is so incredible and every time I hear that music I can hear every interconnected piece of it, thanks to that scene. At the Oscars that year, Maurice Jarre won the Original Score award and in his speech he said he was thankful that Mozart was ineligible. Margaret Thatcher, who was Prime Minister of England when this movie came out, was deeply offended at seeing her favorite composer portrayed as this child who couldn't stop talking about shit and farts. She apparently wrote to Peter Schaffer and complained, but he responded by sending her copies of actual letters Mozart wrote -- which were indeed full of scatalogical references and jokes. She basically rejected it as "fake news" because she just couldn't reconcile this musician she admired with his immature real-life persona.

Jen Barnes

Whenever you guys get around to watching Parenthood you'll get another look at Tom Hulce's acting chops. He's amazing.

Paul Cox

He's in Dominick & Eugene too, with Ray Liotta, which was really good for the time. In retrospect, sometimes it's a little dicey watching older films where a non-disabled actor plays a role in which the character has an intellectual disability, but I think Hulce came through pretty well.

David Wilkins

Just finished, and it’s a great reaction and discussion. One of my favorites since it was in the theater. Watched countless times, owned in every home media format, and it has lost none of its impact after all these years. Yes, aspects of it were fictionalized, but much of his life was not well documented, so there’s room for speculation. He lived just before the era when artists were able to attain great wealth and independence, but survived mostly through the power of the Church and wealthy patrons. The power of his genius stands high above most until this day.

David Wilkins

I wish Hulce had done more. Another role I like, but is too brief, is the sleazy personal injury lawyer in Peter Weir’s movie ‘Fearless’ (1993). That one didn’t get the kind exposure that most of Weir’s work has enjoyed, but it’s very powerful.

PIG

Can we have Sam's dad be interviewed by Daniel and Sam about Amadeus? I would really love to hear his thoughts and why it's one of his top favorite movies. I think it's one of my top ten favorites, too.

Donna Castellano

Im so happy you guys loved this movie. I hadn't seen the theatrical in a while but this is still an A+++ version. I like one scene in the DC that's cut from this version because it truly sets up that Stanzi knows what kind of person Salieri is and explains why she's so pissed to see him in her house. She basically says she'll do anything to get the tutoring job for Mozart, Salieri tells her to come back later that night. I think he intended to sleep with her but seeing her so willingly get undressed to do this for her husband changed his mind. The way he dismisses her not only embarrassed her but made her feel like she was the filthy one in that moment. I could tell you were into the film because of how focused you were on it. And it will be a tough edit for YouTube but it was great to watch along with you. The outro discussion was great. And that you were looking up any info on Mozart on camera just shows how curious the film made you. The performances in this are top notch tho. F Murray Abraham definitely earned that Best Actor Oscar. Too bad Tom Hulce couldn't have won for Best Supporting Actor, instead of being in the Best Actor category with Abraham. Still of the 11 nominations it received, it only lost in 3 categories - Hulce (which would've been impossible), Best Cinematography and Best Film Editing. Again, thanks for putting it on a poll and thanks to all who voted for it. 😁

The little man riding on the horse was Kenny Baker (R2-D2).

John DiGiantomasso

In theory, all of Mozart's music is public domain. Any copyright would be on the official movie score. Fyi, my favorite "famous" Mozart work is Rondo Alla Turca: Check out this video from this search, rondo alla turca https://share.google/5SOld4CYOo2XuC8Jp

PIG

That sounds awesome

Yann Laliberte

I strongly recommend you go see it if you have the chance

PIG

It’s not the composition that’s copy righted at this point, it’s the actual performance from the orchestra that’s copyrighted. Other reactors have had this movie taken down from YouTube.

Smooticus

Switched over to the full movie reaction as soon as the lighting delay happened
