The following programme contains
distressing scenes.
2
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:12,600
Mozart, your father has died.
3
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:16,800
I thought it might help to have
the news delivered
4
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:18,600
by a friendly face.
5
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:20,600
Is that what you are?
6
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:24,600
OLD SALIERI: There, in that demonic
figure on stage, was his own father,
7
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:28,520
and in that poor, wretched
philanderer, Mozart himself.
8
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:31,840
And I knew where, in time,
I would place the final blade.
9
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:32,960
How long do I have?
10
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:34,320
I wouldn't linger.
11
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,840
The mood is changing.
You're a man out of time.
12
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:44,960
I'm enjoying it.
I found it rather, um... tuneful.
13
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,640
I'd say the whole thing
is rather thin so far.
14
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,120
You're getting distracted.
You have to focus on the music.
15
00:00:50,160 --> 00:00:52,480
KATERINA: You made me
realise everything I know about you
16
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,280
I've had to learn
through your characters.
17
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:55,640
And I wondered if you...
18
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:57,320
if you could ever open up to me.
19
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,520
MOZART: You can't stay with me.
It isn't good here.
20
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,520
OLD SALIERI: There is always
a reckoning.
21
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,280
MOZART: You told me to do this.
This can't happen again.
22
00:01:06,320 --> 00:01:07,840
SALIERI: This was your idea, Mozart.
23
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:10,880
OLD SALIERI: He was weak, broken,
and alone.
24
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,560
So, into the darkness we go.

Oh, thank goodness.
My name is Alexander Pushkin.
31
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:54,040
I've been searching for you.
32
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,920
I, um...
I've asked around everywhere.
33
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,160
Cafes, bars, concert halls.
And then, finally,
34
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:00,400
I tried the post office.
35
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,720
I don't know why I didn't start
there, but, uh, here we are.
36
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,840
What is it that you want,
Mr Pushkin?
37
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,560
What is it that I want? Yes.

You might have heard of me.
40
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:20,680
Uh, or you might not.
41
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:24,280
Anyway, I'm writing a play. Or
rather, I'm hoping to write a play.
42
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,200
Are you going round to everyone's
houses to tell them individually?
43

(LAUGHS)
44
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,800
No, no, I came to find you
45
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:34,880
because I'm hoping
to write about your husband.
46
00:02:34,920 --> 00:02:37,240
Oh. Which one?
47
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:38,760
I think you know which one.
48
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,080
And what are you hoping
to write about him?
49
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,240
(CUP AND SAUCE JANGLE ON TABLE)
Well, I...
50
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,400
I want to write about his death.
51
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,600
He died of a fever.
52
00:02:48,640 --> 00:02:52,480
People think his music should
have been some kind of a shield,
53
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,920
but he was flesh and blood,
just like the rest of us.
54
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:58,440
He got ill.
55
00:02:58,480 --> 00:02:59,480
Mm.
56
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,880
I heard something different.
57
00:03:03,920 --> 00:03:05,320
And what did you hear?
58
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,400
I heard it was murder.
59
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:10,920
You heard that?
PUSHKIN: Yes.
60
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:12,400
From who?
61
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,880
PUSHKIN: The old Hofkappellmeister,
Salieri.
62
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,960
He ended up in an asylum.
He lost his mind. Did you know that?
63
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:22,080
I did.
64
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,200
And presumably you heard
he died last year?
65
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:25,240
Yes.
66
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:28,080
And they say
he was ranting and raving.
67
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,520
Screaming like a baby
towards the end.
68
00:03:32,920 --> 00:03:35,800
And they say in the weeks before he
died it was mostly incomprehensible,
69
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:37,520
mostly nonsense.
Mmmm.
70
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,640
Except for one thing.
71
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,120
One thing he kept saying.
72
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:45,320
He told them
73
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:49,160
that it was he
who killed your husband.
74
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:53,680
Apparently, they say, he confessed.
75
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,800
And apparently, he confessed to you.
76
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:01,320
What do you think of that?
77
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:07,880
Because I can tell you what I think.
78
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,440
I think that would make
a pretty good story.

91
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,720
Poison? Strangulation?
92
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:39,080
You desire details.

I used to be more certain
of your indiscretions.
105
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,520
Is it his carnal desires
that he feeds tonight?

You were inflicting wounds on me,
but they were survivable.

I have known everything.
111
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:12,200
And every time I have looked at you,
I have seen a fallible, ruined man,
112

361
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:14,800
I want to hear it.
362
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,120
For a moment, a minute, a second.
363
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,040
I would do anything
to have your gift.
364
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,760
You wouldn't want this.
You don't know how it feels.
365
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,120
You wouldn't know what to do with it.
366
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:25,960
I wouldn't know what to do with it?
367
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:27,520
You stalk me like I'm prey
368
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:31,120
but what would you do with this thing
that you covet so much?
369
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:32,800
It would kill you,
370
00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,120
like it's killing me.
371
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,240
What would you do with the silence
I've suffered through?
372
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,320
It would drive you mad.
373
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,040
I couldn't stop thinking about you.
374
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:50,920
I couldn't stop thinking
about you writing your requiem.
375
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,080
And so I kneeled down
376
00:26:54,120 --> 00:26:56,640
and I prayed to a God
I hadn't spoken to in years
377
00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:59,080
to speak through me one last time.
378
00:26:59,120 --> 00:27:00,840
And if he did,
in return I would offer him
379
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:04,400
my own requiem for my own death.
380
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,640
First, I offered him my love.
381
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:08,480
Then I offered him my hate.
382
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:11,240
And then, finally,
I offered him my whole life.
383
00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:12,440

00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:15,720
For the rest of time,
whenever men say Mozart with love,
542
00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:19,920
they will say Salieri with loathing.
543
00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:28,600
And now I go
to become a ghost myself.
544
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:31,840
But I will stand in the shadows
545
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:34,240
when you come here to this Earth
in your turns.
546
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:38,840
And when you feel
the dreadful bite of your failures,
547
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:43,640
when you hear the taunting
of an uncaring God,
548
00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:47,360
I will whisper my name to you.
549
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:51,000
Salieri.
550
00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:54,600
The patron saint of mediocrities.
551
00:41:56,240 --> 00:41:58,920
And in the depth
of your downcastness
552
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:01,720
you can pray to me.
553
00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:06,560
I will forgive you.
554
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:15,480
Vi saluto.
555
00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:23,400
