Soprano Maria Callas, is again taking centre stage at Venice Film Festival played by Angelina Jolie
PARIS – Nearly 47 years after her death, one of opera's greatest stars, Greek soprano Maria Callas, is again taking centre stage at the Venice Film Festival played by Angelina Jolie in a new biopic.
She was born Sophia Cecilia Anna Maria Kalogeropoulou on December 2, 1923, in New York -- her family name later shortened to Callas.In Verona she met Giovanni Battista Meneghini, a wealthy industrialist who was passionate about opera. Twenty-eight years her senior, he became her impresario and then husband in 1949.
The temperamental diva was accused of being capricious as there had been whistles during one of her arias. But she insisted to the media: "As you could see, I could no longer speak."In 1959 Callas left Meneghini to embark on a passionate nine-year affair with Greek shipping tycoon Aristotle Onassis.
