Angelina Jolie's 'Maria': Recreating Lavish Life of Maria Callas

www.hollywoodreporter.com: Larraín and Dyas visited all of Callas’ favorite places in Paris, including her Avenue Georges Mandel apartment, which since has been renovated. After some pushback, its current owner allowed access to the unit but no photography, so Dyas drew the apartment and then made a sketch (below) of what Callas’ apartment would look like in the film, taking some creative liberty to allow for easier flow. “We didn’t really get a chance to see anything as it was, except maybe the fireplace. It was a shame,” Dyas says.
