Madonna as Eva Peron in &quot;Evita&quot;: Looked like her?  Not exactly.  Sounded like her? Eva Peron didn't sing.  In a sense, the real person Madonna was playing here was Patti Lupone, who had the role on Broadway.  Maodnna is no Patti Lupone, but she can sing and she can dance, and something about this role released her to show something vulnerable for once.  It's a forgotten movie now, an asterisk to a famous stage production, but it probably represents the best thing Madonna will ever do on screen. Photo: HO, REUTERS
