1781, Vienna. Court composer Antonio Salieri believes that Mozart's music is divine. He wishes he was himself as good a musician as Mozart so that he can praise the Lord through composing. But he is unable to understand why God favored Mozart who is such a vulgar, bawdy and impish creature, to be his instrument. Salieri goes mad with envy and has made himself an enemy of God. He is set to take revenge and plots to destroy Mozart by any means necessary.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Amadeus submitted by SBNB on June 24, 2014, 7:25pm This movie was a lot better than I expected it to be. Mozart was very annoying, but it's true that he liked toilet-humor.

Great Music, ridiculous conspiracy theory submitted by Tassos on April 25, 2023, 8:40am I watch if only because of the divine Mozart Music.

Amazing film submitted by RebeccaWittekindt on July 8, 2023, 10:17am This movie was breath-taking. The music is certainly incredible, but the performances were spectacular. F. Murray Abraham definitely deserved the Oscar.
