Amadeus is one of Milos Foreman's masterpieces. It is the story of the life of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The movie is visually stunning. As a costume drama it is very accurate to Vienna during the time of Mozart's life. It has a rather questionable ending (for the purpose of historical accuracy) and leans toward the belief that Mozart was slowly being poisoned to death. However the movie does not claim to be a biography so it cannot be marked because of this. I gave this movie a 10 because it is so well put together. Everything from costume to set design to cinematography, editing, and directing is astounding. The acting is also decent to great. This movie is definitely one of the best of the 1980's. It is a must see for any music fan as well as any fan of the great historical Dramas of Hollywood.
