Amadeus (The Director's Cut)

An outstanding musical score, gorgeous costumes, and stunning cinematography dominate this Oscar-winning, 3-hour, extraordinary Milos Forman 1984 film based on Sir Peter Shaffer's Broadway hit that focuses on the jealous 18th-century court composer Antonio Salieri (F. Murray Abraham) to Italian Emperor Joseph II (Jeffrey Jones) as he traces from his confinement in a mental institution the tumultuous last 10 years in the life and career of genius, flamboyant, cackling composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (Tom Hulce) as he composed myriad musical scores and more than 40 operas, including The Marriage of Figaro and Don Giovanni, in Vienna while dealing with his wife (Elizabeth Berridge) and overbearing, judgmental father (Roy Dotrice).
