Yannick turns out as chief shill for Jolie’s dull Maria Callas

Yannick turns out as chief shill for Jolie’s dull Maria Callas

The music director of the Metropolitan Opera is angling for another night out on the Oscars red carpet. Here’s his film review:

 

@mariafilmofficial is simply out of this world. On behalf of the opera community, I’d like to say to the entire cast and team: THANK YOU!!! @angelinajolie brought Maria Callas to life in the most hauntingly beautiful way, @pablolarrainof created a film that brings opera into the spotlight in such a powerful and respectful way, and @netflix continues to champion classical music. Honored to have introduced the film for this special presentation @paristheaternyc. Take my advice: go see Maria, AND then, join us at the @metopera. 🙂

 

UPDATE: He’s not done yet. Here’s another Yannick shill:

“Angelina Jolie brought Maria Callas to life in the most hauntingly beautiful way, Pablo Larraín created a film that brings opera into the spotlight in such a powerful and respectful way”
