In September 1984, director Milos Forman and producer Saul Zaentz brought to life playwright Peter Shaffer’s Amadeus, an inspired take on arguably the world’s greatest composer, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
The film is equal parts biography and myth creation, placing maestro Antonio Salieri as the wicked villain against Mozart, his childish pawn.
To celebrate the 35th anniversary of the Academy Award winning film, Opera San José is bringing Amadeus to the big screen at the California Theatre for a one-time pop-up showing.
