Humorous History: Friday, Period 1, Class 4
When everyone was in the room, Jim walked over to close the door. "Morning. I hope you all had fun with your teddy bears this week. If you haven't handwavily gotten a picture of them doing something cool yet, make sure you do that before the end of the day. It's a very serious assignment and could have a huge impact on your grade." Jim wasn't sure he could say that any more sarcastically.
"Anyway, this week we're going to be watching a movie. Amadeus is the story of the great composer, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, his constant childlike behavior, public displays of a really crude sense of humor, and his hacky, evil, bitter, murderous rival Antonio Salieri. The only problem is, most of what happens in the movie is completely untrue. And that's fine; it's based on a play that was only loosely based on Mozart's life and neither version of Amadeus really cared about historical accuracy. The problem - and the reason why it's funny - is that a lot of people try to take it as the truth."
"Here's something I got from a completely reputable source on the internet," Jim said, handing out a handout printed from a Geocities page. "It goes into a little more detail about what's wrong than I'm going to because it's movie time." Jim flicked the lights off and turned to the camera guy. "No bootlegging."
