Amadeus: Directors Cut - Blu-ray Forum

Mooka-One · 05-10-2008, 01:21 PM

This is a movie which demands the full Blu-Ray treatment, the colors and sounds in particualr.

does anyone have any info regarding a release?

There are several discs like Amadeus that have been done and are looking for a release date (I expect it'll come out as a coffee book later this year)

Here's the link:

I wonder which version it would be?

I know it classic and won many awards but is it really good?

I thought it was excellent. The Mozart pieces they chose to play for the movie were perfect and I would love to hear them in all the lossless glory possible.

Totally deserving of Best Picture, and F Murray Abraham deserved his Oscar. When this hits Blu, I'm in. This is actually on HDNET or MGMHD and the PQ was excellent.

even if you're not a classical music fan, you'll love this movie. i don't know anyone that's watched the movie & not have anything good to say about it.

this is my ALL TIME fav movie.

i saw it yesterday on, HD Net movie channel. it sounded and looked great. i didn't realize it was such a good movie.

Amadeus is one of my fav movies of all time.

If you loves Mozart and Ingmar Bergman, although not yet on BD, go out and rent "The Magic Flute". It has been released by Criterion on DVD.

"TMF" is without any doubt the best movie ever made based on an opera. I can't way to see it on BD with PCM 5.1 sound

thanks for the info!

If they do this, I hope it has both versions of the movie, the Directors Cut kind of ruined it a bit for me. This is still a great movie though, and would be a tremendous choice for Blu-Ray..

Any reviews yet on the web I haven't found one review and it is due out tomorrow.

Hello,

I LOVE the theatrical version of the movie. I ended up buying the director's cut on DVD and returned it the next day. The scenes added back in didn't have music to set the mood and seemed unfinished, tended to drag, poorly lighted etc. I only see a director's cut on BR. When I bought my BR player, the first movie I wanted to buy was Amadeus but I still don't see a theatrical release. Most of the time I prefer the extended cuts for movies but this and blade runner are an exception to the rule for me.

sfmarine · 12-05-2010, 08:39 PM

Nothing yet. I saw this DC first so this is the version I prefer.
