* {{Historical Villain Upgrade}}: Salieri.HistoricalVillainUpgrade: Salieri. Although he and Mozart were competitors for various professional positions, and Mozart and his father suspected that Salieri and other Italian composers based in Vienna had conspired to hinder his career (leading to the accusations that Salieri had poisoned Mozart, accusations which caused Salieri to have several nervous breakdowns in later life), the two composers actually had a great deal of respect for one another, and Salieri actively helped to bring about the premieres of several of Mozart's later works. By some accounts, Salieri was also present at Mozart's burial, and helped to arrange concerts celebrating Mozart's work following his death.

* FridgeBrilliance: Why is the title of the movie "Amadeus" when it is actually about Salieri? Perhaps it is because even in the name of the film about him, Salieri is pushed aside in favor of the more famous and successful Mozart, whose freaking middle name is so recognizable that anyone who hears it will immediately think of him.
