The Hollywood icon had landed in Venice, Italy Thursday night for the world premiere of Maria — whom she portrays as one half other most iconic opera singers ever: Maria Callas. Set in Paris 1970, the film directed by Chilean Pablo Larrain, recalls "the beautiful but sad days of Callas lived". Maria Netflix landed U.S. pre-Venice bows

“With these women it is almost as if the level of physical presence was higher in front of a camera, or on stage, and even only walking from one place to another we can feel something huge has already happened way before but just out of sight.” It wasn't a struggle for Angie to be Maria Callas, because she already is.

When asked how she related most to Callas, Jolie initially skirted the question: “Well, a lot I won't say in this room... that you probably know or assume,” before getting at her weak spots.

Jolie spent about seven months to prepare for the role. Larrain revealed that his lead underwent many different chapters in preparing for the role, first training with opera singers and acting coaches to understand how a singer at work should stand when they sing as well as target their breaths and movements — not to mention Callas' accent. Production told Jolie learned and practiced songs based on different Italian arias, or Opera that were recorded by her singing with their coaches to have the tunes down.

Madonna ended up winning the part of Evita, but a good deal of what we hear in this film are snippets from Callas at her prime with some Jolie-fragments here and there. The work itself was also something Larrain said took a great deal of courage and emotional vulnerability on Portman's behalf -namely, the fact that she had to sing complex opera music by herself in front of up tp 500 extras huge crew.

That was "the therapy I didn't even know that I needed," Jolie said of learning to sing in Italian.

“Sorry” (the song, not the phrase) deals with what happens in situations where someone is pushed to their absolute limit and just can't keep things inside any longer – hence it leads itself perfectly to a video that shows this explosion of anger. So not a technical hindrance, but rather an emotional whooping that brought me back to my voice, into body and from myself out again. Everything You Are: Everything about YOU — you must put all of it on the line.

For Jolie, some of her process on the film was served by Callas having worked as an opera singing teacher and there are recordings out there of her lectures.

That, in fact… and I was very fortunate since the best method of remaining pair is by means of Maria that, who instructed me,” Jolie claimed. " when she spoke about her work — and the first thing you do, if its language was straight-jacketing,you can no longer care how or what I would like to feel. You are just going to solve the music, whatever it is. And you are structured and go over the assigned work multiple times for practice. So I did that. That, and your personal baggage end of you suck whenever it is or if as well. Then at one point I was so blessed to be living with Pablo who looked after me. If there was just any moment that I could take of spot, and allow it to transform into some new form.

Jolie also admitted to recent opera fandom — “I was more of a punk. I loved all music but I probably listened to The Clash more than most” — revealing that as she matured and suffered personal tragedy her interests turned towards classical music, opera.

A level of despair or pain you know, “I believe in life when it was also very full and Cinial an, at a certain point those feelings might only occupy somber sounds,” she They said.

In the Venice press conference, Jolie admitted that there are also additional verses to her and Pavarotti's tale. All, after a much-publicized hiatus from the movies that followed an even longer spell during which Maria is what's being corralled as either her "comeback" to star-driven cinema.

Because over the last few years — I mean, with having been home so much more and wanting to be here at home because of my family — during that time it just puts me in a place where all along as an artist some people wanna hear my stuff. You know? Just to play soft over there amongst all of your imaginations too. She continued, “I am beyond thankful to be an artist in any respect.

I am grateful to be able to be an artist in any way.

Netflix has not yet dated the release for “Maria,” but it is being positioned as an awards season contender.

Larrain says in a director's statement about the project, “Maria Callas is always on another level of comparison when it comes to opera singers. But she was a movie star who used to sing… and some have certainly forgotten how unique that union once was. This is a story born of the last hours or her life: an elegy constructed in memories, colleagues and humbly tunes.
