Netflix's "Maria," starring Angelina Jolie, imagines opera singer Maria Callas' last days. The true story of her life was of abuse, drugs, and health issues.

Yes, Maria is based on the true story of Greek opera singer Maria Callas, who died of a heart attack in 1977, when she was only 53 years old. Maria imagines the last few days of Callas’s life, in which once the once-great opera singer struggles with a drug addiction, hallucinations, and her declining health.

Angelina Jolie at least brings passion to Pablo Larraín's Netflix Maria Callas biopic "Maria," a far cry from the brilliant "Jackie" and "Spencer."
