AMADEUS REMASTERED HD - MOZART INSULTS SALIERI BY PLAYING HIS OWN PIECE BETTER THAN HE DID

This is one of my favorite scenes from Amadeus. It is rare for a film to have two actors be nominated for the same award. Thomas Hulce eventually lost to F. Murray Abraham at the Oscars, but there is no denying that both gave outstanding performances.

It was said that the real Mozart had a very childlike laugh which Hulce does his best imaginative version of. The laugh is so jarring and out of the blue that it catches the Emperor off guard twice.

Mozart is either arrogant or socially unaware because he insults Salieri multiple times. As Mozart plays Salieri's little march and notes "the rest is just the same, isn't it?" you can see how maligned Salieri felt. Then to top it off Mozart declares "that doesn't quite work, now does it?" and then proceeds to take Salieri's tune and add embellishments and improvisation such that Salieri can only look on in jealousy mixed with resentment.

Salieri's jealousy and contempt for Mozart is best summed up with the line "Grazie, Signore..." as he looks up at the crucifix.

The best part of this is that Mozart is not trying to insult salieri here, he is genuinely treating this as a collaborative moment between peers. Mozart loves the music and is merely giving suggestions but has no social awareness of the situation. You can see in his eyes that he likes salieris piece legitimately, such a great scene

I've watched this scene so many times but I've realised it is F. Murray Abraham that makes this scene. His reactions while Mozart is playing is what makes this scene so hard hitting. You can feel his amazement, admiration, frustration and jealousy all from his facial expressions. It hit me only when I was listening to this scene in the background and it just played like some nice background music. It was only then when I realised that this scene is tapping into that primal jealous insecurity we've all felt and the actor playing Salieri portrays this mixed bag of emotions so perfectly. The Oscar he won for this movie was well deserved

This is actually a dramatisation of an actual documented account of how Mozart would instantaneously produce the most exquisite music on the fly. As one man wrote, Mozart would play variations of his own works as he sat at the piano, insanely wonderful music that someone should have written down, it was so beautiful.

Mozart doesn't even realise he's trashing him. I love it!

Abraham's facial expressions as he's getting humiliated is spot on. No wonder he won best actor for this.

Tom Hulce actually learned how to play piano for this role. That really is him playing the real notes whenever you can see his hands, though the actual playing you're hearing is dubbed over because of the more complicated bits, which is usually when the camera isn't focused on him.

This moment captures perfectly what it feels as an artist to see a peer better than you. You want to be upset but it's not their fault.

That laugh is cinema GOLD. Tom Hulce was brilliant with this character.

I love how there's nothing to indicate malice on Mozart's side. He respects Salieri and really loves to make music. The results however, are devastating. Brilliant scene.

Mozart loves the music and is simply offering suggestions without social awareness of the situation. You can see in his eyes that he genuinely appreciates Salieri's piece—a truly great scene.

This film, the acting, the props, costumes and sets were out of this world despite it not being historically accurate. I can watch it again and again. It deserved multiple awards.

I love the [Edit] "Grazie Signore" that Salieri says to the crucifix both times. First to thank him for giving him the talent to make music and be good at it. Then to send him a guy who can so easily upstage him and immediately improve the music out of nothing.

This is based on a play from the 19th century, which simplified and romanticized their relationship (for dramatic purposes).. Actually Salieri (the real one) was very talented himself and had deep admiration for Mozart's work.

I love the fact the actor is actually playing the piano, he learned to play the piano and read music for the part. Attention to detail is always welcomed in films for me!

The great thing about this film, is you see Mozart's genius through Saliere's eyes. Without "instruction", Saliere shows us exactly why Mozart is a genius through Mozart's own music. He takes a casual listener, and turns on the lights in the room. After this movie, you'll appreciate Mozart in a whole new way.

Mozart, you will be remembered forever for your performance in this movie. It's a shame you died so young and never made a movie ever again.

Salieri was actually a mentor to Mozart and a lot of other musicians in his time. But still, fantastic performance and movie.

I've never played any other scene from a movie over and over so many times as this one. And it always puts smile on my face. Kudos to actors - delivery here is just outstanding from everyone.

His giggling at 4:22 is so perfect. Completely unaware of anything around him, and completely in love with the music brewing in his mind.
