Episode Synopsis

Episode 51: AMADEUSThis week we're making one final trip to the 1980s for Milos Foreman's Amadeus. F. Murray Abraham stars as Salieri, the Austria court composer who recounts his rivalry with the brash young genius, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, played by Tom Hulce. Tune in for our debate over whether the movie is about Mozart or Salieri. It won Best Picture for 1984 and ranks #19 on our countdown.*Come back again next week as we dive into another Clint Eastwood movie, Unforgiven. Join us then to find out if we liked it any better than Million Dollar Baby.Spoiler Alert: We talk about the movie in its entirety, so if you haven't yet seen it, check it out. Or not. That ball is in your court.*What is this list?We explain it in more detail in our Trailer and its Description, but as a high-level answer: we aggregated several different lists that rank the ninety-four winners of the Best Picture Academy Award in a rough attempt to get a consensus. It is not intended to be rigorous or definitive. It's just a framework to guide our journey through cinema history.
