Evita
Evita has hardly any dialogue - it's practically all sung to Andrew Lloyd Webber's score and Tim Rice's lyrics. Madonna carries the film as the ambitious and enigmatic Evita Peron, while Antonio Banderas pops up in various roles (demonstrator, movie projectionist, etc.) to provide continuity to the story line. Both are terrific in this movie. Jonathan Price plays Juan Peron.

The best part about this movie is that it is based on the life of a real man who did manage to take ballroom into an inner city classroom and turn it into a full-fledged, permanent program. With Antonio Banderas playing the part of the gifted and compassionate teacher and Alfre Woodard that of the cynical school principal, this a powerful and provocative film as much about life as it is about dance.

Horror author Anne Rice penned the screenplay for this full-blooded adaptation of her novel, which chronicles the life of 18th-century nobleman Louis (Brad Pitt) after he is bitten by powerful, charismatic vampire Lestat (Tom Cruise). Though enthralled with the undead lifestyle at first, Louis is unable to warm up to killing humans and grows despondent. To comfort Louis, Lestat creates another vampire (Kirsten Dunst in a star-making peformance), a young girl who from then on cannot age. Antonio Banderas appears as Armand, a 400-year-old vampire, and Christian Slater plays the radio producer who interviews the remorseful Louis. Director Neil Jordan captures the lush decadence and erotic fervor of the novel, infusing the film with rich, dusky tones. The big budget is well used to bring each period and place to sharply detailed life, and there is no skimping on the blood or immortal angst. Thandie Newton has a small role as Louis's Creole servant near the beginning of the film, and Jordan regular Stephen Rea appears as a Parisian vampire theater star. INTERVIEW broke weekend box-office records when it premiered and has since earned a spot in the pantheon of great vampire films.

Another exceptional song from a musician I'd expect no less from. This song is off the Philadelphia soundtrack.
