Still, Maria is a marvel to look at, unfolding in a Paris lit by pale September sun. It is 1977, and La Callas is a recluse, long gone from Covent Garden but never quite ruling out a comeback. Pills are popped. The butler frets.

Hollywood’s most protracted divorce battle has finally come to an end, but the legal wrangles between Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are far from over.

When Angelina Jolie split from Brad Pitt in 2016, she stepped out of the spotlight, only to resurface in the public eye when she had to.
