Behind the scenes interviews with the stars and filmmakers of "The Hottie and the Nottie"
Franco Zeffirelli fictionalizes the golden days of Maria Callas, opera’s most notorious diva, in this luminous tribute to one of the greatest singers of the 20th century packed with some of the great actors of our time. Fanny Ardant portrays the brilliant and impetuous Callas, coaxed out of her self-imposed exile by her long-time friend and former manager, Larry Kelly (Jeremy Irons) to star in a film version of Carmen. The film project re-ignites her passion for performance and rekindles her friendship with Larry, long ago estranged by her difficult nature. The outstanding supporting cast includes Joan Plowright as a music critic and life-long friend of Callas’, the smoldering Gabriel Garko as Callas’ May-December leading man Don José, and dreamy newcomer Jay Rodan as Larry’s artist boyfriend, Michael, who is inspired by Callas’ recordings to create beauty.
