Every interview I have seen with Maria Callas, it seems that the reporter is on a hunt to back Callas into a corner!

She was amazingly talented, extremely intelligent, educated, brilliantly honest! I can’t believe how in every interview I have seen of her, this “reporters” seem more like bullies, by trying to get attention towards them, by making disrespectful questions to her. She was definitely way ahead of her time and manage with grace every answer she ever gave.

Maria is so elegant, refined, intelligent, and mature in all of her interviews. She so out-classed Walters, but Walters was no more than a ratings hound.  We lost a great lady in Maria Callas to young.

It's a shame Maria had to constantly keep justifying herself in these American interviews, to people who knew hardly anything about her or her art.

Interrogation rather than an interview such a shame.
Maria was dignified throughout.  
Theres no way anyone famous  today would allow such brutal and cruel questions in an interview .

Photographs never did her beauty justice. She was a beautiful woman. ❤️

Shame on you, Barbara! - Callas so honest and you so low.  How I wish this poor woman had recieved the love from the one person she needed it from, the love that she recieves from us so freely she simply couldn't obtain - May she rest in peace and feel the love with which she is now eternally showered.

Maria was so beautiful here.  Hard to believe she died just two years later.  

She is 50 here and simply stunning. Are actresses aged 50 the same as they were aged 30? I saw her last concert in London. We bought seats but only used the edge. The leading voice teacher in Chicago said it was worth the price of a ticket to see her walk onto the stage. She was right. You could hear a pin drop and at the end was showered with flowers and had a ten minute standing ovation. I was a teenager and left in tears realising that it was the last time I would see her.

She had a strong personality but I think she was very misunderstood having people say she had airs of diva. She was a perfectionist in her art, and the same discipline she applied to herself she expected from others.

What a wonderful woman those later interviews were horrible and so disrespectful of such a gigantic talent and she was so ahead of her time

No plastic surgery just natural beauty

I am disgusted by the way reporters treated her (especially Mike Wallace who was gross to most of the females he interviewed). She was such a composed, talented, beautiful, self aware woman and she handled silly, invasive and judgemental questions with an enormous amount of wit and grace.

The more you know her, the more you love her. She was so magnetic, genuine, talented & gracious

It saddens me that the world had to lose this legendary woman, still in her prime, her story incomplete.

she is an amazing woman. her responses are so deep. how could any man not  have loved her?

What an elegant and beautiful woman Maria Callas was... aside from being a powerful soprano!

Why didn’t she ask how did it feel to sing Norma or Traviata? Obviously. very few journalists know anything about opera. But Madame Callas will long be remembered when Miss Walters is long forgotten.

Over 50 years old and such a beautiful woman,

i love the smile callas flashes walters at the end of the interview--it's one of barely disguised disgust.
