Aren't you talking about the Milos Forman movie now? I loved it, laughed out loudly, since it had great comic moments, but it's Hollywood's view on the composer and his wifey Constanza. I think it touched some real events, but was highly romanticized, making Mozart that 'crazy genius'. Leopold Mozart, his dad, wasn't a nice man indeed and I loved the way they took him as rolemodel for 'Il Commendatore' in 'Don Giovanni', not to mention the landlady as model for the 'Nachtkonigin' in 'Die Zauberflote', but I doubt the historical truthfulness of it all, although it was an enjoyable movie, as was 'Immortal Beloved' with Gary Oldman as Beethoven.Rob
