Mozart Music in Movies (More!)


You think you don't know or are not familiar with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's music. Chances are you've been hearing them while watching a movie, TV, or DVD. This list includes movies with his music used in them.

Over Christmas break I decided to re-visit Ipcress File, a great British spy film starring Michael Caine, and enjoyed that it features Mozart music. The main character, secret agent Harry Palmer (Caine), a working class guy is depicted as clearly cultured in his love for music (he loves Mozart), food and women. I've almost forgotten it has Mozart music in it including the master's Le Nozze di Figaro's Overture being played. His music is also featured in Agatha Christie's Miss Marple, and the British TV series Midsomer Murders and Inspector Morse.
