When visiting with my parish priest last week I became somewhat astonished at a statement he made.The subject that we had been talking about was ,of course,Eva Peron.He suddenly and emphatically stated "If Evita is a Myth,than she is a God made myth and will never leave us" Needless to say this made me feel great as this was comming directly from a cleric.We'er getting there Maria Eva.VIVA EVITA
History PROVES one thing.Evita was Argentina.When she had to leave - well we know the rest.Thank you Senora for the most 6 exciting years in Argentine history.VIVA EVITA
buenisimo, me encanto. sigue emocionandome la sola idea de una mina como Evita...es uno de los pocos pasajes de nuestra historia que me moviliza muchisimo (creo a muchos les pasara lo mismo) gracias por subirlo !
Gotta say it: I'd trade any dozen of our politicians for the Perons on the basis of pure talent and commitment. The thing which makes Eva Peron so stunningly pretty is the bright intelligence which you see in the pictures.
Nunca fui peronista, y vengo de una familia profundamente antiperonista, pero estoy convencido que debemos conocer nuestra verdadera historia. Evita es una parte fundamental de esa historia, y un ejemplo en muchos sentidos.
@Miketayfan She is beautiful. She's not a looker, and her face isn't what I'd call stunning but her intelligence and deeds give her an attraction that is very hard to find. Her voice is what really inspires, though- or at least it does to me. It's what I'd point to if I had to define the voice of leadership. That lady knew what she was doing and a lot of people disapprove of her even today, but she definitely demands respect through her actions and her character.
From what I've read, there were about two or three cases of pressure to contribute, with negative consequences when people didn't contribute. It was mandatory to contribute a day's wages to support the foundation. But you have to remember that at this point in Argentine history there was really no public assistance, no welfare system, etc. If you were poor, there was nowhere to turn.
Thank You for this video I appreciated it. One suggestion I have is that to me the pictures rotated too fast, especially if you are reading the subtitles. Thank You.
What a strong woman, when she died back then make a difference today? I watch the news today and seems that what she work hard in her life was lost! The women there are still been treated like cattle. What a lost of a polictocal person!
Obviously the were not exactly the same...but education? Apart from setting fire of a couple of libraries, one of peronism lemmas was "Alpargatas si, libros no". Hope you can read spanish. If you don't like the comparison with the Ceacescus, let's put it the Mussolini and Clara Petacci way...they also improved conditions for simpler people at the beggining.
Miketayfan, I don't know where you're from, but the Argentina of the fifties was not so different to Europe. Eva never got scientific titles but argentine academia ws forced to endorse a postulation for Literature Nobel Prize for a book she was credited for (bur probably never wrote). And definitely they were power hungry (school books were reformed praising the Perons, major cities where renamed after them, etc).
Evita definitely had cancer. A lot of specialist think that Juan gave her (and his first wife) the HPV virus that caused their cancer, and both of them couldn't fight it off. Also, there are records where the army intelligence recorded the amount of blood she lost during her final year.
Believe it or not, it's actually possible to admire historical figures without having to believe they had the answers for the US in 2010. Chengis Khan was a heroic figure, still worshipped in modern Mongolia; I wouldn't wish his government on anybody today...
The Eva Peron Foundation (Fundacion Eva Peron) was financed by the government. In a few cases, such as the Mu-Mu candy company, there were cases of pressure to contribute. But for the most part, the contributions were voluntary. Eva Peron's foundation was the first Argentina had seen of any real government assistance, and it equalized health care for the first time in Argentine history. If people want to know why she was so loved, they have to understand this history of the foundation!
Eva Perón fue la defensora de los más humildes, de los despojados de todo, luchó contra los oligarcas que lo único que les importa es llenarse el bolsillo y no ven que en la esquina tienen un pibe que se muere de hambre. ¡Viva Perón y Evita!
Documentales,DeEStados,Unidos estuve, viendo,archivos,guardados, muy completos incluso comedores de niños y entrega de casas,y visitas a niños enfermos,en hospitales,y ancianos algomuy lindo y emocionante
Eva era carismatica y mucho; ayudo a los pobres pero endeudo a Argentina llevandola a una gran devaluación, llevo su catolisismo a la laicicidad de las escuelas, apoyó el voto para la mujer, fue actriz (pero no una muy buena :P)fue una mujer en la politica (como puede serlo un hombre en la política) con la diferencia y grande de la epoca en que lo hizo. Fue grande y hasta su momia levanta controversia.
i would like to explain the context of "Alpargatas si, libros no". That was a response to "Abajo la dictadura de las Alpargatas" (get down the dictatoriship of the Alparagatas) said by a group of students. My father could go to the University FOR FREE because Peron cancel the payment to access to superior studies... Greetings "cumpa"!

mechar2: She was 33 when she died. Anyway, I concur. This is a glossed-over version of history. Still, I admire the woman's tenacity.
I love Evita. thanks for download the video.

Long live the ideas and ideals of Evita!

Eva IS the GREATEST woman in the WHOLE of history
Siempre en nuestro corazon
What a strong woman, when she died back then make a difference today? I watch the news today and seems that what she work hard in her life was lost! The women there are still been treated like cattle. What a lost of a polictocal person!
@E HELEN honestly, this was commented on 12 years ago. So, it may not have even been me that made the comment.
And thank you EVITA for helping me to be proud to working class.
absolutely brilliant
I love this is documentary, is there a website were the picture are.

They were a lot like the Ceausescus
So do I she was the GREATEST woman in history.

Una grande!!!

The Lord put the great woman to show a pattern of being real woman, I think about her. I’m looking up to her
Muy informativo.

No no, she's the photographer's daughter.

She has the eyes of my girlfriend by the 1960's named Friedmann Eva from Hungary, now lives in Israel.
Here,Here fellow Evitaist....
A los pobres les enseñó a esperar de los demás.
La Eterna Sabiduria de Juan Peron - eschuchar a la mujer que amaba.
