I have a theory. See, I think she's totally believable in her own videos and concerts. Whatever emotion she's trying to convey, she gets across wonderfully. But it's her speaking voice. It just doesn't translate well to movies. She constantly sounds like she's reading from cue-cards. And I think that's why she's so stiff and wooden. There's just nothing natural and easy about the way she delivers a line. And I think that's why something like Evita works. She doesn't have to talk! Other movies like Desperately Seeking Susan and Truth or Dare work too, cuz it's just her. i agree with you on that. her speaking voice is really annoying to me. | |

remember when Madonna wanted to "bone" Antonio Banderas on the Almodovar party (Truth or Dare!)  Honestly, her best moments on cinema! Such a great movie! | |

Camille Paglia did a whole essay on your theory way back when Salon first started...sadly I have never been able to find the article (which i did post on the org many many years back).
