Angelina Jolie apologized to audience (extras) in case she sang wrong notes loudly.
During an interview with Netflix's Queue, Jolie shared, "The funny thing is, for it to be convincing, you have to be very loud when you sing opera, as loud as you can be. Whether you feel confident or not, you still have to be very loud".
Director Pablo Larraín did a wonderful thing in that he cast a group [of extras] that stayed in the audience [throughout filming]."
"They were with me through a few performances, and these wonderful people would become so essential to the piece. I think the first day I met them I said, 'I apologize for what’s about to happen in case I hit the wrong notes loudly.' "
"It helped me [that] I was performing to a real audience. They were really kind people who knew that I was trying my best, and I wasn’t an opera singer but I was learning. We were connected in the attempt and in the storytelling. Their understanding and support were everything."
