Amadeus (1984)
Court composer Antonio Salieri (F. Murray Abraham) bitterly plots against his young rival, Mozart (Tom Hulce), a musical prodigy who takes 18th century Vienna by storm, in this lively audience favorite with a truly classic soundtrack. Director Miloš Forman’s exquisitely crafted drama won eight Academy Awards, including Best Picture, and will be screened as part of TCM’s tribute to the film’s Oscar-winning production designer, Patrizia von Brandenstein.
