Nostalgia, Pt. 4

Can you feel nostalgia for something you only found rather recently?

Maybe you can’t, but you most certainly can feel it for what it once meant – and in the case of Madonna, you can feel it for the last time she was shown any respect for her acting ability.

Say what you may about’er, Madonna's Golden Globe-winning performance in 1996’s Evita, a film I only saw this year (I know, I know…bad fan), was truly something that said, “Stand back – you ought to know what you're gonna get in me: Just a little touch of star quality!”

And stand back we did. Heck, some of us continue to do so to this day (in spite of Swept Away). That is star quality.
