Synopsis: The life of the world's greatest opera singer, Maria Callas, during her last days in Paris in 1977, between solitude, memories and music.
In Maria, Angelina Jolie lends her features to the legendary Maria Callas, giving an interpretation that is both intense and vulnerable. The film shows the contrasts between the artist's celebrity and the woman's solitude, far from the spotlight. Pierfrancesco Favino and Valeria Golino complete the cast, playing the singer's closest friends and supporters during her final days.
True to his intimate style, Pablo Larraín here explores the melancholy and inner strength of an icon, having already devoted films to Jackie Kennedy(Jackie) and Lady Diana(Spencer). With Maria, he continues his reflection on famous women confronted with the loneliness and fragility behind their public image. Steven Knight 's screenplay provides psychological depth and a sensitive look at the end of a myth.
This film should appeal to fans of elegant biopics and musical dramas. Audiences who enjoyed Olivier Dahan 's La Môme or Rupert Goold 's Judy will find the same sensitive approach to artistic destinies. Maria will also appeal toopera fans and admirers of Maria Callas, a timeless figure in opera singing and a symbol of artistic perfection.
Released in cinemas on February 5, 2025, Maria stands out as an intimate cinematic portrait of a woman both triumphant and broken. Thanks toAngelina Jolie 's performance and Pablo Larraín's pared-down direction, this film explores the boundary between art and life, between glory and solitude. Its broadcast on Canal+ will enable a wide audience to discover this exceptional biopic.
