'Madonna' was cast after she wrote a long and desperate letter to director 'Parker, Alan' convincing him she was perfect to play the role. The letter was accompanied by a copy of her video for "Take A Bow" where she had specifically asked the director that it should resemble the '40s and '50s.

EVITA begins with the announcement in a movie theatre of Eva Peron's death and is quickly followed by a most sublime scene of Argentinian sorrow, that of couples dancing a lifeless tango set to their secret grief. The sight impresses, as does the rest of EVITA's visuals. Unfortunately, EVITA doesn't go much further than the surface. With its emphasis on the illustration of celebrity, as opposed to an explanation, using displays of grandeur and admiring masses of humanity, the mythology of Eva will remain an anonymous one after watching EVITA, I'm afraid. Then again, one should probably not assign such weighty baggage to a movie based on a Broadway musical.
