Closing our December Double Feature, Amadeus moves from a gentle, life-affirming comedy to a grand, tragic opera of envy and genius, asking what happens when a devoted artist is outshone by someone who seems to create effortlessly. Together with Harold and Maude, these films explore the passions that drive us, and what we are willing to give for them.
Amadeus follows Antonio Salieri, the respected court composer of Vienna, whose admiration for music turns to obsession and jealousy when the brilliant and irreverent Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart arrives. Through its sweeping score and dazzling storytelling, the film explores ambition, rivalry, and the mystery of artistic genius.
Join us for a discussion following this powerful cinematic experience.
