Oct 4, 2010 - I could just be an Italian interested in fellow Italians, but I actually think Patti was beautiful

Oct 17, 2010 - His voice has so much more control. The difference between Mandy and all the other singers is incredible. Especially Antonio Banderas.

Dec 25, 2010 - Seeing Evita in NYC in the 80's ruined me for all other musicals.

Dec 26, 2010 - I can't watch the Madonna version, it's just a version. The Rice/Webber production is the original masterpiece. Still own the ORIGINAL vinyl purchased in the 70's.

Mar 3, 2011 - i wish they used lupone as evita in profile as the poster photo. could you imagine that image 7 feet tall. almost as big as the two personalities on the stage of the broadway theatre back in 1980.

Mar 27, 2011 - He really puts a lot of feeling into this song. I wish I had seen the production with him and Patti in it.

etburr1 Says:

Jun 14, 2011 - Yes, I completely agree: those two are unmatched in their roles & voice.

Oct 27, 2011 - They should have given Patti LuPone the movie. Madonna trashed that film with her 'acting' and her vocal. I saw Patti in Les Miserable the first week in opened in London. What a star. Apparently she was furious she didn't get the Alan Parker Evita film. It would have been a great movie if she had.

DeLaCruzer11 Says:

Dec 25, 2011 - What happened to the end of the song? Did you cut it off coz there's more of the song near the end where Evita sings her part.

Rodeo6521 Says:

Jan 1, 2012 - Exactly! They had to change the keys and range of all of the songs so Madonna could fit them in her pitiful vocal range.  Patti Lupone's autobiography is a great, dishy read. Evidently, Barbra Streisand was the first person to option the Evita movie, but she was too old by the time it was filmed.

caerus12 Says:

Jan 2, 2012 - A really good friend of mine in the theatre in London has worked with Patti LuPone and says she is lovely - really gracious and good to all the people back stage whoever they are. Unlike Madonna who when she was on stage in London insisted that everyone refer to her as 'Mrs Richie' and that no-one was allowed to look at her in the eyes.

bbraat Says:

Jan 10, 2012 - Film and stage are different mediums. Patinkin's falsetto would have annoyed the heck out of me in the film. I had the same impression with Phantom's Brightman and Crawford. What works wonderfully on a distant stage with 8 performances a week won't cut it on a movie screen. Age is less of a factor on a stage than a screen.

zac613 Says:

Feb 6, 2012 - i would have prefered Barbra (no matter how old she was) over madonna. madonna wasn't fit for the role voice wise and emotional wise.

Msdominitrix Says:

Mar 17, 2012 - I love the version in Madonna's Evita, especially the part with Madonna.........
