Amadeus

Amadeus- “loved by God” or “love of God.” Where do I begin? Best soundtrack of any film. Best set design of any film. Some of the greatest performances put to camera- especially F Murray Graham and Tom Hulce. One of the greatest screenplays ever This film could be analysed for generations for the themes it presents, for the meaning behind imagery and structure and script. Royalty vs Family Rich vs Poor Law vs Creativity Tragedy vs Comedy Death vs Immortality The Requiem scene is a contender for one of my favourite scenes ever. For the performances, for the music, and for what it represents. A man who has shunned God, and a man who embodies the love of God, finally working together, a unity and coexistence that is eden-like. This is how it should have been. I could go on and on, and I genuinely don't think I could stop. This is one of the greatest films I have ever seen and has awoken something in me on a deep personal level that no other film has done to me in a VERY long time. When I have a son, I wish to for his middle name to be Amadeus.
