A woman named Evita is the former first lady of Argentina,Eva Peron. I once read a book about her legendary life. Evita starts out as a poor, destitute woman and through hard work and a touch of good fortune she works her way into the heart of Peron. They are soon married, and Evita starts her amazing story. The movie Evita(1996) is her whole life story of 95% real.

T his film starts from the end and then goes from beginning to end. It shows how she went to Buenos Aires with a tango singer. It shows hows Eva took on lovers to get jobs, and even helped her husband, who is played by Jonathan Pryce, get the presidency for 2 terms. She and her husband did have 2 weddings, one was in a church and one was a civil ceremony. Eva also traveled while she was first lady. She got woman the right to vote. She also did start a foundation. She did help build houses, hopitals, and schools. When her husband went for his 2nd term as president, the people rallied for her to be vice-president. Eva Peron did had many Christain Dior, over 100 furs, and a jewelry collection comparable to Cleopatra's. Sadly, Evita died when she was just 33, of uterine cancer.
