The Life of Mozart Wonderfully Present to Viewers Who Loves High Quality Movies

Rating: 10/10 (18 October 2003)

Antonio Salieri (F. Murray Abraham, in an outstanding performance), the Vienna court's composer, is in the end of his life in an asylum. He receives the visit of a priest and tell him how he destroyed Mozart (the actor who has disappeared from the screens Tom Hulce, also in a marvelous performance). Then, the story of Mozart, through the jealousy and admiration of Salieri, is told to the viewers in a spectacular movie. The performances of the cast, the direction, soundtrack, costumes and photography are wonderful. A curiosity: Cynthia Nixon (Miranda, from Sex and the City) has a small, but relevant participation in this movie as the servant Lorl. A movie to be watched many times. The viewers who appreciate excellent movies and classic music will certainly love it. My vote is ten.
