Moscow Film Society: Amadeus

Thursday, February 2 at 7 PM

“This is Mozart as an eighteenth-century Bruce Springsteen, and yet (here is the genius of the movie) there is nothing cheap or unworthy about the approach.”
— Roger Ebert

Moscow Film Society presents AMADEUS  as part of their Based on a True Story series of biopic films. The life, success and troubles of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, as told by Antonio Salieri, the contemporaneous composer who was deeply jealous of Mozart’s talent and claimed to have murdered him. The creative marriage of Miloš Forman and Peter Shaffer yields a divinely diabolical myth of genius and mediocrity, buoyed by inspired casting and Mozart’s rapturous music.
