   Is Amadeus a true story?

   • “Amadeus” is not only about as much fun as you’re likely to have with a movie, it also is disturbingly true. The truth enters in the character of Salieri, who tells the story. He is not a great composer, but he is a good enough composer to know greatness when he hears it, and that is why the music of Mozart breaks his heart.

   Why did Forman and Zaentz make a new 'Amadeus' video?

   • Many of them seem inspired entirely by the desire to sell another video. Forman says his new version of “Amadeus,” which runs 20 minutes longer than the 1984 version, is in fact the original cut: Afraid that a historical biopic about Mozart would find tough sailing at the box office, Forman and Zaentz made trims for pragmatic reasons.

   Amadeus. 158 minutes ‧ PG ‧ 1984. Roger Ebert. September 19, 1984. 5 min read. Milos Forman’s “Amadeus” is one of the riskiest gambles a filmmaker has taken in a long time — a lavish movie about Mozart that dares to be anarchic and saucy, and yet still earns the importance of tragedy.
