Excellent
I have watched a few documentaries about Callas over the years and this one still had many surprises in store for me. I thought the interviews and footage used were excellent. I had never seen her speak so much and, at times, lucidly about her life. You have the success and the solitude, the art and the love. There are also some exquisite arias. It is very moving, if you look carefully behind the facade.

Takes you back in time convincingly, makes it easy to appreciate the art
“Maria by Callas” is the title of Tom Volf’s first directorial effort and it’s a pretty impressive work for a rookie these 110 minutes we got here. The subject is of course the late famous opera singer Maria Callas and we find out about career and private life in here. It is of course inevitable that the film is packed with her singing and that is maybe the best thing about it all. These visitors from her concert in the United States could not be any more right in saying she is a definite contender for greatest voice of the 20th century. And speaking about interviews, there are also many interviews with Madame Callas herself that add a great deal of charm and made it easy to see for me why she is so appreciated and desired until today. Not just in her performances, also in her interviews there always feels to be a sense of perfection that also has a bit of a sad note to me as I doubt there is one point we really see the Maria that she really is, but there is always a bit of an act to her. But it adds to the fascination. Maybe I would have liked to find out a bit about her really young years, but it’s fine nonetheless as we see a brief summary to her rise to fame and global stardom, but a lot more focus is on her falling from grace, more with the press than with individual concert visitors who always managed to appreciate her. Another thing I found a bit sad was how she kept talking about the family she longed to have, but every time in the next sentence she tried to talk herself out of this wish by saying it wasn’t meant to be and that she had to sacrifice it for her career, while stating repeatedly that being truly loved by a man and children maybe would have made her infinitely more happy than what she achieved by making millions of people so happy with her voice. Men also seem like a complicated subject looking at her first (and only) marriage with Meneghini and how it all went wrong before her lifelong affection for Aristotle Onassis who picked another femme extravangante when it counted the most and broke her heart, but still this did not keep her from caring for him when he returned to her in search for affection, not love. The short scene with Pasolini and her work on his movie was a nice inclusion too. It is a very insightful documentary we have here and I find it pretty sad this has not yet scored a lot of awards attention. It is a 2017 release yes, but I hope it changes in the coming months. I knew almost nothing about Callas before and I must say I turned a bit into a fan while watching. A truly gifted artist, but also a very tragic character admittedly. Well done, one of the best documentaries I have recently seen and this one for me is way closer to 4 out of 5 stars than to 2 out of 5. Go watch it if you have the chance. Maria will win you over for sure as she did with me and that’s quite a compliment as I am not a great opera fan at all.
