“Maria” is the latest in director Pablo Larraín's series of biopics about prominent 20th century women, following 2016's “Jackie” and 2021's “Spencer,” in which Angelina Jolie portrays the last century's leading Maria Callas, one of the most famous opera singers of the last century. Like the other biopics of Lalaine mentioned above, “Maria” focuses on a specific slice of this acclaimed singer's life, particularly her later years living in Paris.

That is not the only thing it shares with Lalaine's previous films. Callas famously had an affair with shipping magnate Aristotle Onassis (Hulk Birginer), who eventually broke up with Jackie Kennedy, the main subject of “Jackie.” As with all biopics, it is the performances of the film's leads that are its greatest draw, and Jolie's performance in “Maria” is not to be missed.
