Angelina Jolie stuns in a trench coat and knee-high boots as she reveals how she releases her ‘private pain’ through song for Maria Callas biopic
As a dedicated follower of Angelina Jolie’s career and personal growth journey, I find her latest undertaking as Maria Callas in the upcoming biopic truly captivating. Her dedication to mastering opera singing for this role is nothing short of inspiring. It reminds me of my own attempts to learn a new language in my 50s – let’s just say, it’s never too late, but we might need more wine!
Angelina Jolie captivated in a long trench coat and tall boots, shared insights on how she expresses personal suffering through music compositions.
For the cover story of Vogue Mexico’s December issue, the 49-year-old actress talked about her impending portrayal of opera singer Maria Callas in an upcoming biographical film.
In a more casual and clear manner, we could say: Angela, after devoting half a year to mastering singing for the movie, truly shined in a set of captivating images taken during the related photo session.
After switching to her second attire, she chose a classy, deep-v neckline dress with a square design, and later adorned herself with a warm, brown fur coat.
Discussing her position, she elucidated that opera helped her explore the more profound aspects of herself, while learning to tap into a fresh facet of her being to vocalize.
Angelina clarified that people tend to underestimate the amount of experiences and emotions stored within us, which accumulate over our lifetime and ultimately influence our tone and vocal expression. She wasn’t just referring to the audible aspect of our voices, but rather the essence of communication between individuals.
She went on to say: “I needed to take a deep breath and release everything, and during that moment, I had to express my true self as well… a part of me that I hadn’t fully embraced because it held my personal struggles, tenderness, and many things I wasn’t comfortable revealing. It was also about accepting something I didn’t want to confront.
In these stunning melodies, there’s an experience that unfolds which requires tapping into a specific aspect of your inner self to fully appreciate it.
Maria, which has been creating quite a stir with its trailer, is scheduled to have a restricted cinema premiere in the United States on November 27. After that, it will be available for streaming on Netflix starting from December 11.
The film traces the life story of renowned opera singer Maria Callas; its first preview was unveiled a week ago.
The movie begins during the final stages of a renowned singer’s life, reflecting upon both her victories and hardships throughout the journey.
Callas died of a heart attack at her Paris home on September 16, 1977. She was 53.
Angelina mentioned that roles such as Callas are rare, almost like they appear only once in a career, and she emphasized that this role is undeniably the most demanding one she’s encountered, according to Deadline.
As a passionate devotee, I immersed myself for a full seven months, meticulously mastering six of the legendary singer’s most iconic arias to embody her in the realm of opera.
The storyline of the movie revolves around: ‘Maria Callas, considered the finest opera singer globally, spends her final days in 1970s Paris, grappling with her identity and existence.’ (IMDb summary paraphrased)
In a recent conversation with Entertainment Weekly, filmmaker Pablo Larrain reminisced about collaborating with Angelina Jolie and filming a particular moment that left him in tears.
“On the final day of filming, we held back that scene until the very end. Since we only had six to eight hours to complete it, I was right there, operating the camera and staying near her throughout.
In my dedication, I urged Angelina to pour her heart out fully as she sung, revealing both her raw power and deep humanity. I invited her to delve into the emotions of that joyous moment, sensing the fractured pieces within herself.
The filmmaker expressed that blending demands and emotions was extremely challenging. He also shared his surprise at how stunning the scenes captured by the camera were.
I was utterly stunned. The sight of her self-immolation was so powerful, it brought tears to my eyes and seemed to bring a dramatic, almost theatrical end to the film.
During an interview with The Hollywood Reporter in August, Angelina shared insights on playing Callas and learning to sing for the movie.
She spent several months honing her singing skills, followed by Italian lessons and vocal training. It was a process of refining various aspects of her performance, as she herself put it, ‘striving for precision.’
I strongly suggest that most people consider enrolling in an opera class. It’s a unique experience to express yourself vocally using your entire body, giving it your utmost vocal power.
The actress added, ‘I believe this is a sentiment we can all relate to. It’s a daunting task, and it’s not often required of us. It’s uncommon for life to demand that we become our best selves or experience all our emotions.’
