My attention is not diverted by the film review in the \u201cSpettacoli\u201d section of \u201cCorriere della Sera\u201d, about Pablo Lorrain\u2019s film \u201cMaria\u201d. An unknown word forces me to look up its meaning on Google: Spettrale, Spectral. \u201cIn reality,\u201d writes Maurizio Pozzo, \u201cCallas is a ghost, a zombie, and Pablo Larrain resurrects her in the last week of her life before her fatal heart attack on September 16, 1977.\u201d For those of us who have seen the top, in the opinion of many, soprano of the 20th century, the image of Angelina Jolie with her plump lips and flexible silhouette is strange, if we compare her with the real Maria Kalogeropoulou. However, the film titled her baptismal name is not a documentary, but fiction. There, the 48-year-old Chilean director succeeds brilliantly, as in the other two psychological film approaches he made, of fatal and famous women &#8211; those of Jackie and Lady D. &#8220;Jolie spettrale da Oscar&#8221;, is the title of the article in question. Indeed, Angelina Jolie convinces in the role of an Opera diva who declares to her faithful servant Favino: &#8220;I decide what is real and what is not&#8221;. Aristotle Onassis is also convincing, as he rescues the reputation of a country that has since been unable to retain its talents, but has only been content to reintroduce them.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-233987 img-responsive img-center\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MV5BYTQzNWE5MzktNzE5Zi00N2Y2LTk2NDMtMjNmYTU3ZDYzNmUyXkEyXkFqcGc@._V1_-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MV5BYTQzNWE5MzktNzE5Zi00N2Y2LTk2NDMtMjNmYTU3ZDYzNmUyXkEyXkFqcGc@._V1_-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MV5BYTQzNWE5MzktNzE5Zi00N2Y2LTk2NDMtMjNmYTU3ZDYzNmUyXkEyXkFqcGc@._V1_-300x176.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MV5BYTQzNWE5MzktNzE5Zi00N2Y2LTk2NDMtMjNmYTU3ZDYzNmUyXkEyXkFqcGc@._V1_-1024x600.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MV5BYTQzNWE5MzktNzE5Zi00N2Y2LTk2NDMtMjNmYTU3ZDYzNmUyXkEyXkFqcGc@._V1_-768x450.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MV5BYTQzNWE5MzktNzE5Zi00N2Y2LTk2NDMtMjNmYTU3ZDYzNmUyXkEyXkFqcGc@._V1_-1536x900.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MV5BYTQzNWE5MzktNzE5Zi00N2Y2LTk2NDMtMjNmYTU3ZDYzNmUyXkEyXkFqcGc@._V1_-2048x1200.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-233985 img-responsive img-center\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MV5BMmZmZmUxNDUtMmY4NS00NDUxLThkMTMtYjhiODRiMmMzYzdkXkEyXkFqcGc@._V1_FMjpg_UX2160_.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2160\" height=\"1441\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MV5BMmZmZmUxNDUtMmY4NS00NDUxLThkMTMtYjhiODRiMmMzYzdkXkEyXkFqcGc@._V1_FMjpg_UX2160_.jpg 2160w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MV5BMmZmZmUxNDUtMmY4NS00NDUxLThkMTMtYjhiODRiMmMzYzdkXkEyXkFqcGc@._V1_FMjpg_UX2160_-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MV5BMmZmZmUxNDUtMmY4NS00NDUxLThkMTMtYjhiODRiMmMzYzdkXkEyXkFqcGc@._V1_FMjpg_UX2160_-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MV5BMmZmZmUxNDUtMmY4NS00NDUxLThkMTMtYjhiODRiMmMzYzdkXkEyXkFqcGc@._V1_FMjpg_UX2160_-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MV5BMmZmZmUxNDUtMmY4NS00NDUxLThkMTMtYjhiODRiMmMzYzdkXkEyXkFqcGc@._V1_FMjpg_UX2160_-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/MV5BMmZmZmUxNDUtMmY4NS00NDUxLThkMTMtYjhiODRiMmMzYzdkXkEyXkFqcGc@._V1_FMjpg_UX2160_-2048x1366.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2160px) 100vw, 2160px\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-233983 img-responsive img-center\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Maria_u_00_12_35_12_R-H-2024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1296\" height=\"730\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Maria_u_00_12_35_12_R-H-2024.jpg 1296w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Maria_u_00_12_35_12_R-H-2024-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Maria_u_00_12_35_12_R-H-2024-1024x577.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.mancodestyle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Maria_u_00_12_35_12_R-H-2024-768x433.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1296px) 100vw, 1296px\" \/><\/p>\n<div data-ogsc=\"rgb(0, 0, 0)\" data-olk-copy-source=\"MessageBody\"><em><strong>Photos by Pablo Larra\u00edn\/Netflix\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n<div data-ogsc=\"rgb(0, 0, 0)\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Christos Zabounis During the long, changing train journey from Valais, Switzerland, to Milan\u2019s Malpensa Airport, as old-time journalists used to do, I \u201cdevour\u201d the European press.
