本片从一个宫廷乐师萨里埃利的角度,为我们呈现了天才莫扎特的一生。萨里埃利(F·莫里·亚伯拉罕 F. Murray Abraham饰)是维也纳音乐界里有名的人物,自视甚高的他自从遇到了莫扎特(汤姆·休斯克 Tom Hulce饰),心里的妒嫉之火便熊熊燃烧不能平息。莫扎特总能以他超乎常人的音乐作品赢得全场惊叹,他的《费加罗的婚礼》等歌剧,都成了传颂千古的经典。
萨里埃利对莫扎特又羡慕又嫉恨的心理已经发展到几乎扭曲的地步。他在莫扎特的事业上一次次的从中作梗——故意缩短歌剧的上演周期,恶意删改莫扎特的作品,在莫扎特承受着丧父之痛时给他无情的精神折磨。贫穷虚弱的莫扎特在生命最后的几年里,写就遗作《安魂曲》,一代大师35岁就与世长辞,留下不朽作品。而萨里埃利,早有等待他的宿命般的结局。

In 2013, an Australian man a few months shy of turning 60 decided to walk the Camino de Santiago – an 800km pilgrimage trail across the top of Spain. He had no known religion, and absolutely no idea why he felt so deeply compelled to do this torturous walk.
But compelled, he was.
He completed the walk, battling a “triumvirate of pain” - a knee that he later discovered lacked any meaningful cartilage, a blister the sight of which would make a grown man weep, and shin-soreness that felt like his lower limb had been split with a mountain axe wielded by a demented troll.
Arriving at the end of the Camino, the majestic cathedral in Santiago de Compostela, he expected an epiphany – an answer to the question he’d been asking himself every day: Why am I doing this?
But no answer came.
So when he got home he wrote a book, hoping the answer would reveal itself in his scribblings. The result was The Way, My Way, a humourous and self-deprecating book that many consider the best memoir ever written on walking the Camino.
The book has now been made into a film, and it’s an extraordinary account of a man at a pivotal point in his life, searching for meaning and finding himself undergoing a fundamental transformation so profound that he now divides his life into “Before the Camino” and “After the Camino.”
It’s a story particular to one man, yet of appeal to anyone seeking a greater meaning from life.
