Documentary Film: “Mirror, mirror on the wall, who’s the greatest diva of them all?” Tom Volf‘s recent documentary leaves no doubt in anyone’s mind as to who it might be. Told through private letters, unpublished memoirs, performances and TV interviews, Maria by Callas is the first film to tell the life story of the legendary Greek-American opera singer completely in her own words with never-before-seen footage of her life-long romance with Aristotle Onassis, with Jackie Kennedy as her arch nemesis. Her letters are voiced by Joyce DiDonato. (2017,with closed captioning, 2 hours.).
