Amadeus Amadeus..Amadeus!

Between the Screenplay and the film, Amadeus is a very close adaptation and stays very true to it's story spine.  The main characters and major events parallel between novel and film.  Some minor elements are dropped but were necessary to drop in order to carry along the audience to prevent confusion.

This adaptation is a transposition, for it remains faithful enough and illustrates to the best of its ability the intentions of the text's author.

Overall Amadeus parallels between novel and film.  The story, the characters, and the themes remain intact.  The only difference is the elements added or dropped to assist the audience.
