During that scene when Mozart says A minor and stalled was a real reaction on his part because his ear piece stopped working so he improvised. Milos kept it in and good move
I was 14 when this came out. I had already been studying classical piano since kindergarten and I was obssessed with this movie. My friends thought I was weird.
Tom Hulce was Impressive! They actually kept the notes and instruction vague for F Murray Abraham, so he actually was somewhat confused by the dictation. It made for an amazing and dynamic scene. You should watch the entire film. It's great!
That was great! I've seen that movie 20 times at least. Ran across it in about 92. Great scene and fantastic movie. Well done guys...enjoyed your reaction
I’m thrilled you love this movie- I’d recommend the lighter scenes , too, to first timers. Like when Mozart upgrades Salieri’s lame composition in front of Emperor Franz Josef. The music here at the end is Mozart’s Requiem- so beautiful and powerful- he died before he could finish it. My German great grandfather found Mozart’s pauper’s grave. ❤❤❤❤❤ Beautiful words of wisdom from Pops at the end!!!!!!
There's no evidence to suggest Salieri poisoned Mozart... this is a use of artistic license to create this masterful drama. Most likely, Mozart died from syphilis. That said, let me write a few of the reasons this scene is among my favorites of all movies of all time. 1) It concerns classical music, which I love, and breaks the pieced of it down in a way people unfamiliar with it can learn about it more easily. 2) Besides being about music, there is a musicality in their dialogue, a cadence to their back and forth: "Do you have it?!?" "You go too fast!" "Do you HAVE it?" "You go to fast!" A wonderful touch by Mr. Forman, the director. 3) This scene is the key scene of the entire movie because it threads together all the themes of the movie: - Recall in the beginning, Salieri prays to God to have the talent to write great music for Him. Well, in this scene, his wish is granted, but not as he imagined! - Salieri is deliberately trying to kill Mozart: so watch Salieri's reaction when Mozart asks if he believes in the eternal flames...! He contemplates in that moment that he is headed there. No man more deserved an Oscar for best actor than F. Murray Abraham, who conveys so much with so few words... - Near the end of the scene (you do not include in your video) Mozart apologizes to Salieri, saying he didn't think Salieri liked his music. Remember that Salieri thinks of Mozart's music as the voice of God, and he is trying to kill him. Consider the impact when Mozart says, "Forgive me." I am probably leaving out 5 or 10 more good reasons, but that's my take for now. One of the greatest movies ever made and will remain so because it concerns itself with eternal themes. So glas you reacted to it!
I like how you don't stop the video and give your reviews at the end. A well done video. If you translate the words from Latin you will see they are as beautiful as the music.
I love this movie, and you guys are fun! New subscriber. How FAST, how perfect. I can understand Saliari's frustration. *I can't even keep up with writing this DOWN, much less composing it*
The movie built up the conflict, Salieri respected Mozart and conducted many of his works after his death. The only issue in the scene is Mozart had the piece completed in his head and Salieri couldnt write it down fast enough. Salieri knew he was in the presence of genius.
A thousand of people had conducted Mozart work. So that doesnt proove anything about theyre friendship. Mozart is the most famous composer in history so that normal for him to conducted Mozart music
@@alistar92 Of course, no one knew that Mozart was the most famous composer in history at the time because history had not been written. That's how history works. The thousands of people conducting and performing his music came after the events of this movie. In fact, most scholars think that the two were on very friendly terms, so friendly that Mozart had Salieri teach his son, Franz Xaver Mozart. If they had actually hated each other, Mozart would surely not have chosen Salieri to teach his own son.
@@scottdavis7730 No its was constance who choose him because he was a great teacher. I dont think they ate evidence about their friendship and they were rival because they both had to sell their music but Salieri was not specially his enemy. In this time it was pretty difficult to earn money without a boss. The music right didnt exist
@@scottdavis7730 Oh and secondly Mozart was very famous during this lifetime, he performd in front of king and aristocracy. He was not famous as he is now but george Washington knew who he was. He was already famous in US
@@myvideosetc.8271 Yes that possible, but Mozart never been Salieri student. He was perfoming in front of royal court when Salieri was playing in this childood! Salieri starting music when Mozart wrote his first opera! So how Salieri could be his teacher ? Hes got his father and a Jc Bach to teach him music. Mozart always been above Salieri all this short life so what can he learn something from him? And there absolutely no proof about Salieri teaching anything to Mozart Absolutely nothing
Salieri had several famous students such as Franz Schubert and Ludwig van Beethoven, but not Wolfgang Mozart. Salieri did teach some other Mozarts though. He taught some of Wolfgang's kids.
Heyyy! Another great reaction 👍 Have you guys ever reacted to Donny Hathaway on the channel? If not, I highly recommend the song “A song for you” GREAT SONG..
What's going on? This is the wrong clip. In the film you hear the actual music playing over the top of this. It doesn't really make sense, and certainly has no real power without it
The greatest fiction: The two were protagonist and antagonist. This is a creation to make a movie. In truth, the antagonist truly was a friend and admirer. He never wished for his death. That is a fiction, which gives a creation of a movie. Mozart was a broke (because of his own lifestyle choices) but greatly admired person in his own time. Which is more than many artists can ever ask.
Mozart was a genius, an absolute GENIUS!
During that scene when Mozart says A minor and stalled was a real reaction on his part because his ear piece stopped working so he improvised. Milos kept it in and good move
OHHhhh so that was why Mozart in Amadeus told Salieri to write sotto voce down cause he couldn't check by hearing him scribbling the quill!!
"Three-dimensional thinking!" Dad summed it up right there.

A requiem is a piece for death. Mozart was writing already as a child. The movie is factually inaccurate but it is still amazing.
this movie scene deserves to be passed around UA-cam more than it is

Salieri had to be a talented composer to realize Mozart's true genius. He could feel and understand it. That says so much about Salieri's worth.

Amazing heartbreaking scene
Congrats on 9k, my main men!
Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.
In reality salieri was Mozart teacher. They weren’t rivals. But this scene is amazing.
Salieri , Mozart teacher ? !Pff and Salieri was better than Mozart ?!😂😂😂
@@alistar92 Students are not allowed to surpass therir teachers?, Salieri was extremelly talented, but Mozar was a genius among genuises.
@@myvideosetc.8271 Yes that possible, but Mozart never been Salieri student. He was perfoming in front of royal court when Salieri was playing in this childood!

@@Trobtwillis yes that true
Mozart was a musical genius.
There was no poison involved. Salieri simply worked Mozart to death (Mozart also did a lot of drinking).
You are watching a master at work
His “poisoning” was the result of how people lived in those days.
Mozart's genius couldn't be denied even at an early age!🎼🎶🎵Salieri was also a gifted Composer, just not on the level of Mozart!
Heyyy! Another great reaction 👍

It's not from the movie but rather a wonderful edit from a UA-cam channel by Martin Gonzalez. Personally I like seeing the writing of the notes.
Mozart was a pretty good song writer.
