Amadeus might just be the perfect movie.


It takes a topic many have heard of but few have really looked at in-depth. It provides a main character so twisted and beguiling that every scene is a triumph of intrigue.They take the best of Mozart and layer it into the most sublime score, perfectly complimenting the story but without overdoing any of it.I feel as though through watching it, we understand every aspect of Salieri's intent but don't have to agree or even like him. It's a story that shows us one of the greatest, most creative minds, whilst simultaneously showcasing the most depraved and lowest acts human kind can be capable of.I have never seen a movie spring between blossoming hope, endless desperation and titanic longing so readily, mixing into a cocktail that fascinates and captivates.It also hasn't appeared to age despite it being almost 40 years old, each scene is layered and shot in a way that shines with sophistication.Despite a nearly 3 hour run time it leaves us wanting even more, and somehow allows an entire cast to shine, only made stronger by the performance of F Murray Abraham. via /r/movies https://ift.tt/3JWGD64
