Being a big fan of Madonna as a singer rather than an actress and an even bigger fan of Antonio Banderas, I just had to see this film when it came out. I enjoyed it so much, I went back a further 4 times, bought it on video and bought the soundtrack.
Alan Parker took a chance casting Madonna in the lead role as let's face it she hasn't exactly stunned the acting world with her performances has she? but I doubt she'll ever portray someone as well as she played Eva Peron. Although a lot of the film involved singing, well about 99% actaully which she IS very good at, Madonna really went for it and impressed everyone including the critics with her potrayal of the 1st lady of Argentina. And who knew that Tom Hanks' gay lover in Philadelphia could sing so well and with such emotion? Antonio matched Madonna in every way and it was probably a career best for him also.
Neither of them or Jonanthon Pryce faltered once in any of their respective performances.
And if your a fan of The Corrs, the young girl that Madonna sings to and tells to leave in Juan Peron's apartment is lead singer Andrea Corr.
