I was genuinely starting to wonder if you knew something about this movie that I didn't. But nope.

the movie is really about salieri--his envy, jealousy, frustration and growing hate.

This is almost exactly how I put it. Different words, mostly... I said jealousy, greed, a childish refusal to let go of ego-driven grudges. But these are unnervingly similar considering the your insistence that I don't know anything about the film. I am simply mystified.
Of course the film is about Salieri's envy. God, there really was no point at any of this.
