Swear to god!! Im always Salieri in this situation at parties! Seriously!
Anyway, I really admire Abraham's acting in this movie, even with the little he says or does in this scene, he still leaves an impact in just the WAY he says and does things. His voice is arrogant but sympathetic and he even uses his hands in a giving european kind of way.
@shineelover16 It was very much the norm back then however to die young. Pergolesi died around 1727 (I don't know exact date) at the age of 26. If he had lived a fully life, he would be amongst bach, handel and vivaldi right now.
I find it quite interesting that this song from the Magic flute conducted by Neville Mariner for the movie Amadeus is far more "allegro" than all the other recordings of this particular tune. It's faster and merrier. Sir Neville could not have done a better job conducting Mozart and i can not help but feel that this is how Mozart himself had intended it to bee. man this song brings down the house!
@grou28 well in Ingmar Bergmans trollflöjten they sing in swedish, what's the matter singing in other languages than German..just because that was the original language. okay i might not want to hear it in japanese for instance (no offence to japan) but what im trying to say is that your missing the point entirely if you'r taking note of such inconsequental matters such as the choice of language. i'ts about the story and the MUSIC...ah the music..:-)
In the original opera, did Papageno have those bells OR did he have the little flute thing, that the name of escapes me of right now? I was told they had their own flute things...
I mean, I know movies take their own liberties, but I just want to be sure of this all.
@victor0451 My guess would be that it would be a good way to show that the opera was made more for the simple commoners. I know that they wouldn't have really had English as the "commoners language" in Austria, but I think it translates over well for the viewer...from the pov of the director anyway.
It's so sad. I wish we could have Mozart back. I swear I love him more than any living human. He's my inspiration. I truely miss him and I always will.
@benroo89 u say u mis him, did u know him did u spend some time with him, i think NOT, we all love him, we love his music but we cannot be sure what kind of bloke he was
For a sec, I thought he said "tasty little bitch"...
