Maria is a remarkable film led by a transcendent performance from Angelina Jolie. Pablo Larraín’s portrait trilogy will be studied and examined for years to come. Each film operating as tragic fables illustrating grand figures as life sized, complex, and haunted human beings. So much sincerity and love crafted in every frame. Like Jackie & Spencer, Maria will live with you long after the credits roll.
