Jones, Jeffrey. (b. 1946). "Amadeus"—Signed Photograph.
Signed promotional still from the 1984 film after Peter Shaffer's play of the same name—the scene in the opera house with Mozart (Tom Hulce) conducting and Emperor Joseph II (Jeffrey Jones) looking on from the first row. Inscribed, "to Paul / Jeffrey Jones / Emperor Joseph II." Oblong format, 8 x 10 inches (20.2 x 25.4 cm). In fine condition.
"Critic James Berardinelli noted that Jones portrayed the Emperor 'as a superficial and self-absorbed ruler who can't tell the difference between a great opera and a mediocre one'. Vincent Garby of The New York Times praised Jones's performance, citing the film's most memorable line, when the Emperor complains of Die Entführung Austrian dem Serail that 'there are too many notes'. Jones' work earned him a nomination for the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor — Motion Picture."
From the collection of Paul McMahon, a critic, photographer and artist who worked for more than 13 years touring with Marlene Dietrich as the icon’s stage manager, announcer, dresser, secretary and escort, and later spent 25 years as an arts and entertainment reviewer and photographer with Gay Community News, Esplanade, Tommy’s Connection, The Mirror, Bay Windows and other publications.
