Amedues Review This 1985 Academy-Award winner for best picture is based on the life of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. In my opinion it definitely deserved that award. It really hits you from so many perspectives. The first being the dark perspective, Salieri. Also it hits you from a perspective of a man doing his work, the labor intended by God. During the first part of the ending when Mozart is dying it gives you the feeling of The Dark being victorious over the Good, but in the end it ends with The Good prevailing over The Dark by means of torture; the torture of Salieri’s deterioration. I’m sure parts of this movie are dramatized but it really engulfs you as a viewer. It was obvious to have Mozart’s music playing throughout the movie, and I believe that is the main reason the movie was so captivating. The movie starts with Salieri in an insane asylum telling the story of why he doesn’t want to confess his sins to a priest, ultimately to God. He goes into the story of his life and Mozart’s part in it.
