I expected to love it but was just really disappointed. and I love Drew and Scarlett, but not unlike Valentines Day, it suffered from having way too many storylines and as a result, never fully developing any of the characters.

I might have a go at answering this question one day, but it'll take an awful lot of planning! Too much for 11pm on a Sunday night

It's about as accurate an account of Mozart's life as Braveheart is of William Wallace's life, but it felt incredibly short for a three hour movie and I loved the lead cast, despite them being pretty much unknown these days.

Yeah, the guy who played Salieri was fabulous. It's just not one that I can embrace so readily.
