The Making of 'Amadeus'

00:00:13 That was an incredible scene. It was fourth of July.

00:02:59 Peter was nervous. I met him the first time that night.

00:05:36 I spoke to both of them at different times, and both used terms...

00:08:21 We are rolling, stand by for speed.

00:10:46 ...who I was assuming he was most interested in...

00:13:11 ...gave a wonderful performance.

00:15:33 And it was... For three days, I couldn't answer the phone.

00:18:05 I wanted trucks rigged. I wanted duplicate equipment. I wanted maps.

00:20:44 "Are you gonna make a problem?" "I'm gonna show you."

00:35:55 When we met, the only instrument he ever played was guitar.

00:43:39 Then we did a second take a moment later. He said, "That was wonderful!"

00:47:02 There was a pure joy. We just put every silly thing in, the dwarves...

00:50:04 ...what your posture should be.

00:52:45 There was always that element where we never knew each other so well...

00:55:04 {y:i}- A minor. {y:i}- Yes.

00:57:37 ...and the extraordinary storytelling...

01:00:29 It'd have taken 100 years to reach as many people as the film did.
