Maria Callas in a rare acting performance
In 1969 the world's greatest opera diva Maria Callas made her first and only venture into the world of film when she played the lead role in Marxist director Pier Paolo Pasolini's Medea.
Together Pasolini and Callas created a hypnotic cinematic experience and a powerful ideological tale of the clash of two cultures.
To win the kingdom his uncle took from his father, Jason must steal the golden fleece from the land of barbarians, where Medea is royalty and a powerful sorceress, where human sacrifice helps crops to grow. Medea sees Jason and swoons, then enlists her brother's aid to take the fleece. She then murders her brother and becomes Jason's lover. Back in Greece, the king keeps the throne, the fleece has no power, and Medea lives an exile's life, respected but feared, abandoned by Jason. When she learns he's to marry the king's daughter, Medea tames her emotions and sends gifts via her sons; then, loss overwhelms her and she unleashes a fire storm on the king, the bride, and Jason.
This is not my upload but I thought it important enough to post this rare movie here on avaxhome.
