AMADEUS
Posted by Tony Benevento under AFI's 100 Years...100 Movies , AMADEUS , Drama , Milos Forman , Music , Oscar Winner , Oscar Winner - Best Picture , biographyIt’s impossible to pick one; tomorrow I could have chosen Jaws or Godfather, Raging Bull.
But this movie for me was a film that simply was brilliant, in every aspect a a film: writing, acting, directing, costumes and on and on. The story is a universal one; in that it entails mediocrity v.s. genius. Of course this opens up jealousy, revenge, and plotting. All of them executed to perfection. How this film missed the AFI 100’s and a film like Six Sense made it, is beyond me.
It also made me a fan of heir Mozart ![]()
