Line 7:
** Bob Gunton, Juan Peron in the original Broadway cast, is [[The Shawshank Redemption|Warden Norton]].
** Jonathan Pryce (the movie's Juan Peron) may be known, depending on your generation, as either [[Miss Saigon|The Engineer]], [[De Lovely|Gabe]], or [[Pirates of the Caribbean|Governor Swann]].
* [[Hide Your Pregnancy]]: About midway through the film production, Madonna discovered that she was pregnant with her first child. The film directors went to great lengths to cover up the possibility of her "Eva Peron" getting pregnant, even if it meant removing some scenes of her being carried out of the church for fear she might slip.
* [[Star-Making Role]]: The role of Eva is perhaps one of the greatest examples of modern musical theater. The original productions launched the careers of Elaine Paige and Patti LuPone, two of the most respected musical actresses of their generation; "Don't Cry for Me Argentina" remains a [[Signature Song]] for both of them to this day. The movie version was perhaps Madonna's best reviewed acting performance, and the 2006 revival introduced Elena Roger to the English-speaking world.
