44 days before he fell ill, Mozart wrote to his wife that he was eating a delicious pork chop -- the disease has an incubation period of around 50 days." Furthermore, the death scene of Mozart never happened in reality. "Mozart didn't collapse on the premier night of "The Magic Flute" nor was he brought back to his apartment by Salierir nor did he die the next day." In fact, Mozart had actually conducted a few performances of "The Magic Flute" until the end of his health and he stayed in bed for a few months until his death. Also, Mozart was never left alone in this ill-period with Constanza always on his side, never left for the "spa," with other family members. Therefore, Salieri couldn't have brought back Mozart. .
Amadeus exemplifies Salieri's ordinariness against Mozart genius. In fact, Salieri was an important composer in Austrian music. Being patroned by Gluck, his many compositions included 40 operas, oratorios, church music, cantatas, arias, vocal ensembles, songs and orchestral and chamber works. It was only that Mozart had redefined music differently from Salieri and other composers had caused jealousy. "Their work was talented, but not a work of genius." In his earlier years though, he was one of the "new school" of opera composing, and created a new path for others to follow. Indeed, Mozart was one of the composers who had to "follow in his footsteps" in this area. In other words, Mozart could had been the one who was jealous of Salieri's wonderful reputation with Joseph II of Austria in the court and the public. It was known that Mozart was mad that he didn't get selected to be Princess of Wurttemberg's piano teacher but Salieri did. Also, Mozart believed that "Salieri and his tribe will move heaven and earth to put it [Figaro] down." But in reality, Salieri was busy in France with his own operas.
Mozart's personality in Amadeus is portrayed as childish, vulgar, and unfit.
