Britain's What's On Event Guide
Maria
From acclaimed director Pablo Larraín (Spencer, Jackie), MARIA, will tell the tumultuous, beautiful, and tragic story of the life of the world’s greatest female opera singer, relived, and reimagined during her final days in 1970s Paris.
‘There’s an ethereal quality to Jolie’s performance that matches Callas’ legendary persona, and despite the deep sense of melancholy that pervades the film like a ghostly veil, this is still a love story – and one where the heroine lives forever.’ Hannah Strong, Little White Lies
‘In a movie that is stately on the surface and stormy underneath, Jolie’s drawn, almost architectural features and air of enforced restraint is ideal for Larraín’s vision of Callas.’ Steve Pond, TheWrap
‘After Jackie and Spencer, Maria beautifully concludes Pablo Larraín’s exquisite trilogy with the hand of a true maestro, giving Angelina Jolie the performance of her career and La Callas the diva send off she deserves.’ Erik Anderson, AwardsWatch
