‘Maria’ Review: Angelina Jolie Is Commanding as Maria Callas in Pablo Larraín’s Lavish but Overly Fatalistic Drama

Owen Gleiberman Chief Film Critic “Maria,” Pablo Larraín’s drama about the legendary American-born Greek soprano Maria Callas, begins on the day of her death, September 16, 1977. As thin as a wraith, clad in a white nightgown, she has collapsed on the living-room floor of her very grand Paris apartment. The film then flashes back to one week before; most of it takes place during that week (though it’s dotted with key episodes from Callas’s life).

‘Maria’ Review: Angelina Jolie Hits The High Notes As Doomed Diva Maria Callas In Pablo Larraín’s Curiously Bloodless Biopic – Venice Film Festival

No director working today has a greater command of the medium than the Chilean maestro Pablo Larraín, whose previous achievements in the generally unloved biopic genre — Jackie and Spencer — are now joined by his sweeping reimagining of the last days of Maria Callas. Every element in Maria speaks of that mastery: the first deep-focus shots of Callas’ lush Parisian apartment, where the light through the window is transfigured into a kind of mist; the bold and brilliant use of diegetic music, so essential to conjuring Callas’ world; and the elegant merger of past and present, dream and reality.

Speaking with the Venice Film Festival press corps this afternoon, the star said that embodying the legendary opera singer gave her a “new relationship” to the term “diva.” The word “comes with a lot of negative connotations… I think (Callas) was one of hardest working people, who didn’t hurt anybody.”

Angelina Jolie Spent ‘Almost Seven Months’ Training to Sing Opera in ‘Maria’: ‘I Had Not Sung in Public’ Before and ‘Was Terribly Nervous’

Angelina Jolie detailed her preparation to play opera icon Maria Callas in Pablo Larraín’s “Maria” at its Venice Film Festival press conference, saying she trained for “almost seven months.” “Maria” reunites Larraín and writer Steven Knight — whose last project, “Spencer,” bowed in Venice in 2021 — and tells the “tumultuous, beautiful, and tragic story of the life of the world’s greatest opera singer, relived and reimagined during her final days in 1970s Paris.” “Everybody here knows, I was terribly nervous,” she said of learning to sing opera. “I spent almost seven months training because when you work with Pablo you can’t do anything by half. He demands, in the most wonderful way, that you really do the work and you really learn and train.” Jolie said she “had not sung in public” before, which added to the pressure when filming packed theater scenes at Paris’ La Scala theater.
