Movie Reviews of Evita
Movie Review: my favorite musical
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a very good musical with a rich overview of Argentinas history and its struggle towards democracy. Madonna is amazing and her talent is reflected in her ability to not only be a pop artist, but also a classical artist. This is a good musical for people that dont usually like musicals and for Madonna fans to see her in a different light.
Summary of Evita
After more than a decade of false starts and several potential directors, the popular Andrew Lloyd Webber/Tim Rice musical finally made it to the big screen with Alan Parker (The Commitments) at the helm and Madonna in the coveted title role of Argentina's first lady, Eva Per?n. A triumph of production design, costuming, cinematography, and epic-scale pageantry, the film follows the rise of Eva Per?n to the level of supreme social and political celebrity in the 1940s. Like Madonna, Per?n was a material girl (she was only 33 when she died); she was instrumental in the political success of her husband, Juan Per?n (Jonathan Pryce). But Eva was also a supremely tragic figure whose life was essentially hollow at its core despite the lavish benefits of her nearly goddess-like status. The film has a similar quality--it's visually astonishing but emotionally distant, and benefits greatly from the singing commentary of Ch? (Antonia Banderas), who serves as a passionate chorus to guide the viewer through the elaborate parade of history. --Jeff ShannonFilm adaptation of the musical play which is the story of the poor Argentine girl who came to the city, became an actress and then a politician's mistress, and then the president's wife.
