I never liked Madonna and never will. I found Evita to be little more than a general assault on the senses. It may be the loudest movie ever made. The show has one good song in it, and we all know what it is. Who cares about Evita or Eva Peron or whatever her name was? We need to be more mindful of our own history. Madonna sux!

"And I totally hated, HATED, the fact that they had Eva sing "Another Suitcase". It made no sense. That song belongs to the mistress."
What made no sense was giving that song to an incidental character, who you never see or hear from again, in the stage show. It made perfect sense for Eva to sing it in the context in which it was used in the movie. And Madonna's performance of that song was one of the movie's highlights for me. I thought it was extremely poignant and moving.
There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered.

Yes. To hell with the rest of the world. It's all about us. What a pathetic and mindless statement!
