Mediocrity has a patron saint, and his name is Salieri. John, Westy, and Matt begin the story of Miloš Forman's lavish, Oscar-sweeping account of genius, jealousy, and a laugh that echoes through cinema history.

In Part 1 we cover the film's opening, director Miloš Forman, the cast, and the second act — including the stage-to-screen journey and the extraordinary performances that anchor it all.

Part 2, covering the crew, the finale, reception, and the film's legacy, is available now.
