Amadeus

Amadeus

56Watch it awake.

The music is a gift, and the man narrating it is not on your side.

Pass it on

The review

Salieri is the one talking. He knows he is good, he knows the other man is better, and he calls that God's injustice. The film is not a note-by-note life of Mozart. A father, a wife, money, and a body are in it. The music is the evidence. The confession is the frame. I enjoyed the music and did not enjoy the man handing it to me.

Save it for a night when envy is worth talking about afterward. Nobody in the room should be asked to admire the narrator. He tells a truth about a gift he cannot match, then spends the truth on a grievance. The music does not need his permission, and the warning is how a gifted man talks once he has decided heaven owes him an apology.

Piety and Republic and Temperance are the thin ones.

Can conscience actually stop someone, or is reverence only in the shot so it can be mocked?

This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.

Consider this

Footloose

70 instead of 56

Footloose is still a drama film, and it scores 70 instead of 56. What you gain is piety: By the end the preacher is not a cartoon.

The eight

  1. 9
    Industry

    Composing is the real work, and the music is the evidence on the table.

  2. 6
    Household

    A father, a wife, money, and a body keep Mozart's life from being only genius.

  3. 4
    Piety

    Salieri calls the gap God's injustice and does not let that stop his envy.

  4. 5
    Courage

    The body and the money are at risk, while Salieri mostly risks his own peace.

  5. 4
    Republic

    A court may employ them, but nobody here is answering to a town.

  6. 3
    Temperance

    Envy is fed by every comparison, and the confession does not starve it.

  7. 7
    Truth

    He tells the truth that the other man is better, then misnames what God owes him.

  8. 7
    Stewardship

    The music outlasts the grievance, which is what the people still have.

Avatar: The Way of Water

Avatar: The Way of Water

56Watch it awake.

The warning is the same as the first film. The water is not a warehouse either.

Pass it on

The review

The first film said a forest is not inventory. This one moves the same sentence underwater, and the sentence is still true. Jake's trouble is that the war he joined has children now, and a father who made himself a weapon does not get to retire from it when the next boat comes.

The spectacle is the product. Stay for the father who would rather the children learn the reef than learn his war, and notice the film cannot help spending them on the war anyway. Take the warning. Do not take the three hours of fire as the point.

Does anyone owe a neighbor, a law, or a town — or is every person out for themselves?

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

68 instead of 56

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is still a adventure film, and it scores 68 instead of 56. What you gain is republic: An empire, a rebellion, a council that is afraid to act.

The eight

  1. 5
    Industry

    He teaches his children a reef the way a father teaches a trade.

  2. 6
    Household

    The whole plot is a family that will not split up to be safe.

  3. 6
    Piety

    Eywa is still a claim that a world is owed something. It is not a church.

  4. 7
    Courage

    He goes back into the fight so the children are not the ones who pay.

  5. 4
    Republic

    The company is a private navy. The reef has a chief and no neighboring law.

  6. 3
    Temperance

    The last hour is a battle the camera loves. The moral arrives as a splash.

  7. 7
    Truth

    It says again that a quarterly metal is not worth a home.

  8. 7
    Stewardship

    What he is trying to leave is a place his children can still live in.
