How come Faye's "Evita Peron" doesn't get love?
Released the same year as that Crawford film, but as a miniseries on TV.
Faye was criminally snubbed of an Emmy nomination for her work Though as some have said, she's seems to be playing Joan Crawford playing Evita Peron at times, especially in the later scenes.

It doesn't get love because Dunaway is a terrible actress. One of the worst Hollywood has ever produced.

Why can't you talk about positive things like the Evita movie that was the hit of all primetime and NBC? You all want to focus on the Mommie Dearest stupidity!

I'd love to see this, but I don't ever find it streaming and I don't think it was ever released on DVD.

Don't forget, a year earlier Dunaway presented Patti LuPone with her Tony for the musical EVITA.

It’s the prequel to Mommie Dearest. She gave the same exact performance.

It doesn't *deserve* our love.

Because Faye’s neverchanging voice, face, expressions, hair and acting affectations first presaged and subsequently recalled her “Mommie Dearest” performance, throughout all of her career.

"Special Appearance by Rita Morena as Renata Riguel".
Why does SHE merit this credit?

When she orders the assination you see the same coke-fueled rage that ruined Mommie Dearest.
I don’t know why Faye isn’t more open about the drug use. Sharon Stone talks about how Faye took her under her wing after Basic Instinct because when she became a star she couldn’t handle it and began shooting heroin with her rock star husband.
