I find it so sad that Tom Hulce is not on screen or on stage anymore but only behind the scenes. Now I am also pleased that he is behind the scenes doing what he does. He is just too talented in too many ways.

That movie was full of outstanding acting. That scene always cracks me up, thanks for posting this. I have the DVD and I should pull it out and watch this again.

as "Non più andrai," to close out act one. Genius! And one of my very favorite movies.

Every actor’s performance and every word of the script.

I know the screenwriters took great liberty with the truth of Mozart’s life and relationship with Salieri but as a work of drama it is exquisite.

I think of this scene often whenever I am forced to listen to a musician whose talent far exceeds mine, which is quite often.

Thanks for posting it!

I hope the kids of today get a chance to see Amadeus, and learn something about Mozart's time and his amazing talent.
