Angelina Jolie had a moving experience at the Venice Film Festival on Thursday. The Oscar-winner attended the Venice Film Festival premiere of her upcoming film “Maria” and was greeted by such roaring – and reportedly lengthy – applause following the screening, that she appeared visibly emotional. Jolie was escorted down a staircase in the theater amid the thunderous ovation and was seen wiping tears from her face, video footage shows.
Taking place in 1970s Paris, the film tells the story of Callas’ tragic and tumultuous life and chronicles her final days. The movie has already garnered Oscars buzz following its premiere in Venice. Larraín previously directed 2016’s “Jackie” starring Natalie Portman as Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and 2021’s “Spencer” featuring Kristen Stewart as Princess Diana. Both actresses earned Academy Award nominations for their performances.
