Madonna in Evita
22. Evita (1996)
Alan Parker and Tim Rice's film adaptation of Lloyd-Webber's eponymous stage musical finally gave Madonna the chance to play the film role she felt she'd been born for (and resurrected her flagging movie career). Indeed, the singer does a creditable job in her portrayal of Eva Peron, despite the horrified reaction that her casting elicited from Argentina's diehard Peronistas. The movie's one original song, You Must Love Me, won it an Oscar, and remains, along with Madonna's rendition of Don't Cry For Me, Argentina, the most memorable musical element of the production.
