Angelina Jolie at Mega: “Maria Callas disbanded her mother when she was very young”

She spoke about her playing in the long-awaited film “Maria”. The award-winning actress was also asked about Aristotle Onassis. Exclusively to Thodoris Koutsoyanopoulos Angelina Jolie spoke just before the great premiere of the film “Maria”, about Maria Callas. The award-winning actress described her experience in Greece for the needs of filming. “We started from Greece and I think it was something symbolic that this film started from Greece, for various obvious reasons. You can feel it,” said Angelina Jolie, with Pablo Laraine, the director of the film, to supplement: “Obviously water, colors, islands in the background, but mostly light, I believe as a filmmaker that light is of particular importance and I think light in Greece is a piece you cannot steal. Many things in movies you can steal, but not light.” “What was it that broke Callas? Was it Aristotle Onassis?” Angelina Jolie was asked among others. “I think that someone greatly underestimates this woman when she believes that a man would have such an important effect on her life. Of course, Onassis had an effect on her life.” I think her mother crushed her when she was very young. I think the war has affected her a lot. But I think that her voice and when she could no longer sing, when she could not do the only thing she felt she knew, the only thing she was living for, she believed that this was her life and when she was unable to do it anymore, when she began to lose her voice, then she really disbanded,” Angelina Jolie said. “She caused this disaster and not someone else. As for her relationship with Onassis, she felt she was being used. At some point she was loved, but in the end they used her. So she was angry at herself as soon as she realized that. It’s the same story, but it’s about the perception on which side you see a story. We do, we see her side,” Pablo Laraine said. The film Maria will premiere in the Greek halls on December 5 and is expected with great interest.
