  • Eva Peron was a great woman.  She exceeded what "those above her" thought she could accomplish. It takes alot of guts and vigor to overcome the hand that is dealt, and Eva Peron was a trooper/chingona/femme fatale and she deserves the respect of humanity. God is her ultimate Judge!

  • Wow. she must be one of the most loved women of her time.. Just like the late former Philippine President Cory Aquino

  • Beautiful Job outstanding

  • Oh Eva was so hard to grasp, but from rags to first wife, she said it loud!! Brava Eva (:

  • @ThatGuyNamedMattie Second wife, actually.

  • @caseynchan

    The difference between that and the many men in the western world that crawl to their boss to get a promotion or to their woman to get a bit of coochie??? In fact I have seen many more men that are arse lickers then woman that sleep their way anywhere...

  • what is this music ? its beautiful

  • what is this music its so stunning !!

  • the truth hurt i am sorry

  • Hi @caseynchan

    I am so very glad you took the time out of your obviously busy schedule to comment on this video.

    May I ask that you go back to school or take some courses before you try and be smart and write comments which defame a persons memory.

    I do not like you. I do not care what you think and I certainly could not give 2 fucks what you will write back.

    Regardless of what you think....It really does not matter!

    Lots of love Dickhead...

  • @shanekennedy1977 u sound educated?

  • @caseynchan - I am, Thank you!

  • @shanekennedy1977 Complete respect for you, good work :)

    and great video, thanks

  • @shanekennedy1977 BRAVO!!!!!! Well said.

  • @shanekennedy1977 I don't agree with the manner in which he expressed his opinion but I have been to school, I have nothing more to study on this historical figure and historically she did prostitute herself, nearly bankrupted the Country while she became wealthy. she was a strong supporter of Hitler and the nazi party which is why many sought refuge in Argentina after the war. Good video footage however.

  • @shanekennedy1977 BEST COMMENT EVER ...

  • I agree with you Mahler71, about Evita to Diana :)

  • Interesting footage-hey Shane-are you Irish??? :-)

  • @Massev6871 - No my friend, I'm Australian.

  • eva peron no one shall kill you in my soul!! ARGENTINA!! ARGENTINA!!!

  • What a woman! Even before death she's fascinating. I read a book called "Santa Evita"... in it, the author tells about her body embalmed and all the mythology around this. She truly inspires me!

  • Can anyone tell me who sings this rendition of Ave Maria?

  • @DietrichFaurie - Enya

  • @shanekennedy1977 Thank you!

    

  • I find Eva and Juan Peron fascinating historical figures. I once spoke to a client of mine that grew up in that era and when I asked him what he thought, his statement was "She cared TOO much for the poor people but did GREAT things for them". True in a sense I guess.

  • Comment removed

  • She was such a complicated woman. She loved "her people" so completely,and yet helped to bankrupt it. She was a product of her sad childhood and a re-invention.She was ignorant(lack of formal education) yet very intelliegent.She was beautiful.She was young.And she was so loved by her people.It's a great video.As for the folks who are annoyed by the viewing of her corpse,my Mom saw the remains on a news reel,at the movies,in 1952.Get over your hypersensitive self.

  • I can feel the grief these people feel. Eva was at the time, the Argentinian people's beacon of light, their Hope for a better Argentina. When she died, they lost that Hope so they felt deep grief.

  • L'impatto emotivo che causò la morte di Evita,credo,rimanga un evento storico unico nella storia....Evita resterà per sempre nel cuore di chi ha amato il suo operato e che sia un valido e costante esempio per i governatori di oggi...

  • I come to this presentation from time to time just to remember what it was like standing in the rain with my mother and father.We waited most of the day for there was so many people wanting to say goodbye to the Senora.To this day (and I am old now) I have never seen any incident of grief more than that witch was evident and in the people's faces at this time.Evita was loved and adored by us all.My mother and father have been gone now for several years.I believe that they are all together.

  • Thank you for this moving film.

  • what amazes me if she was so hated, your video gives us the complete opposite, she was as much loved as Catherine the Great was by Russia, i believe there is much more to the bitterness and love then the people of that country wishes to admit. thank you for allowing this to be viewed

  • She was a public figure. She is a part of history. Her body was on display for viewing to her public. There is nothing wrong with showing a video of it. It's a part of history. Those who are offended need to get over it or perhaps not watch.

  • @RGRandell - Thanks, I agree..

  • @RGRandell I totally agree!

  • I also was there at the time.At 13 years old emotions over her death I did not entierly understand.My parents have passed away many years ago.They never forgot her birthday or the day that she died.They worked for her at the Foundation.One thing that I have never forgotten is the silent weeping that was on the faces of everyone (and there was millions) who were present at the funeral.It was,well,beyond words.I believe nothing has ever been like it in the history of this world.Never forgotten.

  • @GRAYBARN1 Your parents worked for Evita?! You are a lucky man to have that privelege. I'm happy that your parents knew Evita and that you might have met her yourself. I met Evita in my dreams this January and she was all smiles, as if she never died. Viva Evita!

  • My heart cries every time I watch this, may her soul light up our country. Viva Argentina

  • @jointvenus - Thankyou!

  • Vos criticas a los que hablan en ingles y te haces llamar Mapleshell?!

  • Excellent video and excellent musical background. About "Santa Evita", well it is my habit not to speak ill of the dead. Argentina has not yet recovered from the cancer of Peronism.

  • @Jedermann101 Jaja, necesitas hablar en ingles a la gente de afuera porque acá nadie te da bola....pobrecito.

  • I saw her from a fifth floor balcony in the Hotel de la Paix at the corner of 9 de Julio.The funeral cortege lasted over 14 hours.Massive flower cars,people crying their eyes out,tanks,ammunition trucks,more flowers and more military and civil mourners until late into the night.I saw her glass coffin in the way to the place where millions went to say good bye to their adored leader.Like I'll never forget 9/11 I will never forget Evita's amazing funeral parade.Good or bad she was loved!!!

  • Wow,from whore to saint in such a short life-time!

  • "Don't cry for me Argentina

    The truth is I shall not leave you

    Though it may get harder

    For you to see me

    I'm Argentina

    And Always will be." - Evita from the musical "Evita"

  • off ma face at 48,

    at 15 I cottoned on to Eva Peron.

    Thanks Eva. xxxx

  • i think Evita was great leader for her people. i wish we have that kind of leaders today that would feel their nations and people-human at all.

    great tribute video

  • EVITA-- We Love You.......Evita = Argentina

  • Comment removed

  • Very touching tribute. From what I've read, she has done a lot of great things for her people during her time. I can understand why Argentina still misses her. I know I would be the same way.

  • I am old enough to remember our president's (FDR) funeral.I can safly say that EVA'S was the largest and most sad I have ever seen.I also believe that in the recorded history of the world nothing like this event ever came close.She was truly loved.God really has blessed her.VIVA EVITA

  • as falklands são inglesas pois assim querem os seus habitantes que preferm ser ingleses isso se chama autodeterminação de um povo

  • @edepaolis te propongo algo, toma una region de tu pais, echa a toda la gente que alli vive y llenala de militares y una poca poblacion civil extranjera y preguntale a que pais le gustaria pertenecer...eso es lo que pasa en malvinas...no puede ser aplicada la autodeterminacion de un pueblo en territorio de otro pais.

  • Extremely emotional video. Thank you to the author.

  • @trl614 - My pleasure. The footage is too beautiful to keep locked away.

  • Thank you shanekennedy1977 for giving those of us much younger a chance to know of her and her many achievments as a human being. She is truly inspiring.

    Namasté

  • @Peteistheone - Thanks very much. 

  • excellent video Evita is Argentina!!

  • EVITA CAPITANA!!

  • I think Eva Peron is an interesting historical figure and this is an interesting video. But I don't understand your request to "Have respect for her relatives and her country" when you include film of her dead body. What kind of respect is that?? And as far as "nasty and personal opinions," she was a public/historical figure. People are going to have opinions--really strong opinions. If you don't want to engender more of those opinions, you shouldn't have posted this video.

  • @kdiabloj1

    Hi, All footage is of historical value. I posted it for those who are interested. Unfortunately the footage of her in death is of interest to the people which is why there are so many pictures and pieces of footage. Books have been written about her body.

    As far as my request to keep nasty and personal comments I believe if you have nothing nice to say then don't post it.

    Simple as that!

  • @shanekennedy1977 Exactly. Why do these people even bother to view. It does not make sense. If they are that precious that they cannot look at a dead body, they should not view.

  • im from argentina. Evita is the most expressive women of argentina´s culture. We love her.

  • no soy política ni me interesa, pero desde el punto de vista histórico me emociono ver este vídeo, que data de toda una época en nuestro país, y por ellogracias por poder ver imagenes de aquellos dias.un 10

  • Homenagem linda....Muito emocionante o video. 

  • A TRULY LOVE SAINT OF A WOMEN AMAZING

  • Es un bello video. Que mujer!

  • I'm British but actually I prefer Evita to Diana because whatever she achieved was entirely with her own resources. Diana was born into privilege and never had to struggle.Akso I believe Evita REALLY understood her people because she was born poor.She could empathise. I don't think Diana really understood what it is to have nothing.

  • @mahler71 I think that they were and are both beautiful people both outside and in, and that they made incredible contributions to charity and their countries and their people. Even just their images are enough to inspire people, and their stories are sensational. they were fashion icons and they were powerful, and they have both left an amazing legacy. I think it is wrong to try and undermine one by saying one is better than the other.

  • @xpo50 It was not charity. It was Social Justice. There is a big difference between the two terms. Charity is given by the rich to the poor. Social justice is a conquest of the poor despite the rich.

  • @mahler71 but at least diana is a princess and she still cares for underprivileged people..even though she got resources she still manage to share it to people

  • Beautiful tribute!

  • This is fantastic, can I ask where you found this footage and if you know anything about copyright issues regarding this footage? I have some friends who want to use some footage from this time in a show...

  • @evaperonsuclks They lived in different times, they were two completely different persons...I mean, honestly: what's the point in comparing them???

    THEY ARE NOT THE SAME IN ANY WAY APART FROM THE FACT THAT THEY WERE TWO WOMENS LOVED BY THEIR PEOPLE. THE END.

  • Beautiful version of Ave Maria. That song always gets me.

    Whether you love her or hate her, you have to admit that Eva Peron was a really interesting person- powerful and ambitious as well.

  • a sad day it must have been for you guys back then...kinda reminds me of Princess Diana here in england

  • @evaperonsuclks Lady Diana Spencer was born in a Royal bed.She married the most important man in UK.All the world looked at Her with great simpathy only for that reasons. Evita was born poor and bastard.She was hated by the rich and middle-class people of my country, because she tought the poor people they deserved the same respect,and had the same rights.We can't compare beneficence with social justice.The two deserve respect and love,but they aren't the same

  • VIVA PERÓN!

    VIVA EVITA!

    From Argentina

  • @evaperonsuclks exactly correct. Also, Lady Di was Anglo Saxon, and ANglo Saxon cultures do not exploit the poor, the minorities and women the way the Hispanics do-- at least not as badly. Not saying we're perfect. But we're more accepting by several light years of those that are not white straight males than Spain or Latin America.

  • @evaperonwasbad Spain's not that bad, they allow gay marriage and they're SLIGHTLY more respectful of women than Latin America. But you do make good points.

  • I am Argentinian, you are not. I knew her, you did not. You are being irrespectful with the memory of one of the woman that most did for the poor. You are right, perhpas she is not alike Lady Di. Not better not worst. She was so much alike to Mother Teresa.

  • @gondorado1 I agree that he's being disrespectful, however one does not need to be Argentine to know and learn the true story of Evita. In fact, I think being outside of Argentina one has an advantage because they do not look at her either from love or hate and can look at her objectively.

  • @evaperonfan

    not argentinian but I would have been able, I am mixture Basque-German and I was rejected, but I think that Avoided came from poor middle and for the people she remains the poor small humiliated audacious girl who with courage reaches very above and even if she makes the worst the Argentinian people acknowledge his child and even dressed of the richest dress the people see a child of the street who has the right to his princess's dream.

  • @gondorado1 I agree that he's being disrespectful, however one does not need to be Argentine to know and learn the true story of Evita.

  • @gondorado1 In fact, I think me not being an Argentine has given me a better rounded view of Evita, rather than just a Peronist or anti Peronist view. Don't get me wrong, I love Argentina though and I even consider it my second country.

  • Watching all the flowers and the love of her people, her "descamisados", her "grasitas", I remember Lady Di.

  • ya cool thanks love it

  • before each country has a very colorful past and wonderful story so sad except for popes death everything becomes more boring!

  • This was a very interesting video compilation. I was happy to see color footage.  But who is singing Ave Maria in German?? It was a singer with a very beautiful and trained voice. Beautiful.

  • @waynegabi 

    The one singing Ave Maria is Barbara Bonney

  • lo q hizo eata mujer por el pueblo argentino fue,es y sera inolvidable.y es un ejemplo para toda Argentina y LatinoAmerica que si nos unimos en fuerza con el pueblo grandes cosas se pueden lograr ni el mas grandes de las idiologias puden contra todo un pueblo!!por una ARGENTINA mejor y una LATINOAMERICA mucho mas aun!!!!

  • @guillarg fue muy querida por lo que se ve, fue presidenta o ¿siempre se desempeño como primera dama ?

    ¿y es pariente de María Estela Martínez de Perón?

  • @whelljack no llego ser presidenta renuncio en plena campaña electoral por su enfermedad y al poco tiempo fallecio!!!Maria estela de peron fue la segunda esposa de perón q se conocieron durante el exilio en españa!!!una lacra y vende patria!!!eva hsta el dia de hoy es querida,respetada y almirada por la mayoria de los argentinos aun por aquellos que son de diferentes banderas politicas!!la gran pena q m da es que utilizan su nombre en vano y no se preocupan por seguir el ejemplo y la lucha de

  • La tercera esposa de Perón se llamaba Maria Estela. La segunda esposa fue Evita.

  • Mi nombre es Juan manuel, Soy Argentino y Muy Orgullosos De Cerlo, y uno de los motivos, es ni mas ni menos que "LA SEÑORA MARÍA EVA DUARTE DE PERÓN" LA JEFA ESPIRITUAL DE TODOS LOS ARGENTINOS Y LA ABANDERADA DE NOSOTROS, LOS HUMILDES" Mil gracias A La Persona responsable De Subir Este Video!!!

  • wow, es impresionante, hasta se me erizó la piel, y la musica d fondo queda perfecta.

    Gracias por el video, yo no soy argentina, pero admiro mucho a esta mujer, a pesar d haber nacido mucho años depues d su muerte -quizas por eso m conmueve tanto el video--

  • THE 4:40 ?

  • How true was the tomato-hurling at her in Switzerland during her Rainbow Tour? c:

  • It was true.

  • But why? And was there a footage? c:

  • tu espiruto nos guia eternamente

  • @LordTitanico

    Viva Evita! c:

  • When /where did the part around 4:00 take place? I was wondering if it was at the second Cabildo Abierto on Aug 22, 1951 at the Ave 9 de Julio where she said she needed time to decide on her candidacy or if it was Sep 28, 1951 at the Plaza de Mayo when Peron talked nicely of her and she fell into his arms crying? Anyone know?

  • My bad! The Plaza de Mayo event was on Oct 17, 1951. Nonetheless...anyone know? Just read Marysa Navarro/Nicholas Fraser's biography about her and was wondering.

  • Fake biographies. Read the biography by Tomás Eloy Martínez, Santa Evita -I do not know how they translated it-. It is very accurate.

  • @gondorado1 Santa Evita is a novel, and it's about her death, not her life. I'd recommend the biographies by Navarro and Fraser and A.D. Ortiz.

  • If I am not wrong, 4:00 is a chain of prayer that people realize when she was very sick. The other question i dont understund, my english is very bad...

  • mujer de pueblo y para el....

  • ES INCREIBLE como una mujer en tal solo 5 años logro convertirse en la mujer mas emblematica del siglo xx !! q grande evita

  • she was huge. God bless her soul. She united Latin America

  • Speechless! god bless Evita.

  • Te fuiste como las grandes, no entendiste porque, pero era el momento para ser una santa. Te fuiste en la cuspide de tu vida.

  • Great video and footage! She truly was an amazing woman!! RIP Eva Peron

  • Rest in Heaven, Evita!

  • D: que hermozo no inventen, que hermozo, adoro a evita, Jefa Espiritual De la Nacion!!!! <3

  • Evita vive en el corazón del pueblo!

    Eva Perón. Jefa Espiritual de la Nación

  • god bless Evita

  • El discurso donde ella aparece llorando es lo más emotivo.

    Algunas intentan imitarte, Evita, sin saber que no te llegan a los talones...

  • @cucarachasentimental cuando decis algunas te referis a C.K? Por que creo que ella intenta parodiarla, lo cual me parece una falta de respeto a la memoria de Eva y a los argentinos-

  • @eirino0369 La presidente Crisitna Fernández no necesita parodiar ni imitar a nadie. Tiene suficiente personalidad y capacidad propias para persidir la República Argentina. Y si pensás que no, entonces presentáte vos eirino0369 como candidato a ocupar el cargo de Presidente si sos más talentoso que la Dra. Fernández de Kirchner. Yo creo que quien falta el respeto sos vos a la Presidente simplemente porque se te antoja o tenés la creencia de que ella quiere "parodiarla". No seas tan fanático.

  • que padre funeral!! desgraciadamente, personas asi no hay. en este mundo, por ke ahora las viejas de los presidentes , solo piensan en gastar el dinero de la pobre gente....

  • Great footage, Shanekennedy1977. Thanks for this...

  • negritos resentidos,ni siquiera entendoeron a los peron,son resentidos odiadores

  • Comment removed

  • it's a great video! she was so loved and still loved i went to her grave last year a there's still people who leaves flowers to her... i'm from argentina and think that all the presidents around the world shoul try to be a little more like her

  • @letsrockroms I think so too. But then again, there's only one Evita.

  • The media informed the "death of the Spiritual lider of our Nation"

    She encarnates in herself the archetype of the Nation... The good die young :(

  • Outstanding video. I just watched the movie musical last Wednesday and I was in tears. This woman was amazing. Even watching this video, I had tears in my eyes. She is an absolute inspiration to me. Thank you for sharing this footage.

  • Thank you for sharing this video. She was a beautiful women and very much loved.

  • Excelente video, muy emotivo!!!

  • motosierraxxx: I am more Argentinean than "you and your kind" (and HER kind)... My family is in this country since 1850, taking care of the LANDS.

    PS: "We" don't work with a shovel, that's for your kind.

  • Comment removed

  • and what would you call Peron, who slept with more people than Evita, including TEENAGE GIRLS? It's far better to be promiscuous than a pedophile.

  • Peron?. call him : "CANCER SPREADER"

  • you really are a weirdo :S

  • why?

  • Favorited and 5-stars! Thanks for posting.

    The more historical footage I see, the more impressed I become with the attention to detail Alan Parker and his crew were able to art-direct to such presicion.

  • Great footage for a great lady!!thank you!

  • am an asian, i dont know her until i saw the movie last 1996 and was fascinated, she is really incredible, hollywood will not give a damn if she's nobody!!

  • EVITA: Chile también te ama y te amará siempre. Gracias por haberte acordado de quienes nadie nunca se acuerda: de los pobres.

  • Wow! Makes Michael Jackson's funeral look like a teaparty! Such Masses and outpouring...

  • Michael Jackson? Who was he again?

  • great video! Even for those who don't have a big love for Evita, as myself, she was, without any doubt, a woman who left a trace and was loved by milions of people. My respects.

  • Such a heart felt video, so so sad. When you think that this happened 57 years ago and that to so many of us it is still so emotional to see this wonderful dynamic woman so frail and to this day, tears fill my eyes every time I see her embrace Peron and bury her head in his chest. Evita, forever in my heart.

  • Extremely well put together! It was beautiful and I loved it.

    I just have a question. Who is singing Ave Maria? It's beautiful.

  • Fue tanto el amor de esa dama por ese vasto país Argentina...que aún en nuestros días, su nombre suena en muchas partes.

    Que siempre sean recordadas las personas, que dan la vida por su pueblo, su gente, sus "descamisados".

  • wow!!! para que un pueblo entero demostrara tanto amor por Eva, ella debio haber sido alguien muy especial. Lindo video!!

  • thank you for posting such a beautiful film xxx

  • What a beautaiful tribute to Eva Maria Duarte Peron. The scarce color footage is most apprecited. Excellent references.

    5 stars!!

  • Evita siempre estará en nuestros corazones!

    No hay que olvidarla jamás!

  • ='(

  • muy buen material, me emociona. gracias por publicarlo.

  • MUY BUENO EL VIDEO!!!!

    GOOD JOB!!

  • Great job. Thank you for sharing this beautiful woman with us.

  • Beautiful video.

  • THis is wonderful! I thank you so much!

    Donal de PR

  • Fuere lo q fuere Eva no se peude negar q ha hecho por los Argentinos lo q ninguna otra primera dama y/o presidente ha hecho.A q mujer no le gustan los vestidos y joyas?ninguna buena mujer se viste y deja a su familia sin, pero Eva daba!!!.Y no olvidemos eso..era MUJER!! y en esa epoca y ahora, esta es una sociedad mas q machista, y no toleraban q una q no fuera de la alta sociedad mueva lo q movia ella, millones la siguieron, salio de la nada y ha sido hasta ahora la gran mujer de este pais

  • No la conocí. Tengo 48 años. Pero mis padres la adoran, porque fue la única persona, incluyendo a Perón, que se ocupó con SINCERIDAD, sin cálculos políticos, de nosotros, sus descamisados. Yo digo "nosotros", pero gracias a sus conquistas sociales, nosotros ya no somos pobres (ni ricos). Somos lo que llaman "clase media". Tengo estudios universitarios, de grado y de posgrado, en la Universidad Tecnológica Nacional, que fundó Evita. Evita: jamás nosotros, tu pueblo, te olvidaremos.

  • Una gran verdad.

    Yo tengo 15 años y ya leí 5 libros sobre ella, y voy por el 6to . Mis padres no son peronistas, pero me interesó mucho su vida, desde que empezé a investigar, cada dia la admiro más, y cada vez que escucho alguno de sus discursos, se me eriza la piel, no puedo evitarlo.

    Saludos!

  • definitibamente eva duarte contodo el dinero que tenia axeso hiso felises a muchos arjentinos poco veneficiados

    algo que la hiso especial.

  • Did this show in 2003 with a 8 show run at UMass Dartmouth and was cast as one of the Generals to Peron and Evita. The cast was very strong with Shandy Monte and Jen Dushane alternating as Eva. I adore Eva Peron, and have done nothing but research her life since my first taste of Argentina.

  • Evita - Eterna en el alma de su pueblo!

  • What great footage of how argentiens loved and still love evita she reminds me of our queen of hearts Diana princess of wales in many ways they will both be missed and never forgotten, Evia seemed to have had a similar funeral yet a example how loving and also humane and loving, dignified both were and it was a celebration of both ladies life's both women will never be forgotten by anyone RIP Evita RIP Diana. thxs for putting this video on

  • Any further reference on that colour footage will be much appreciated (BBC?). Actually, I'd be more than happy to know about anything still/moving colour images from Argentina, from that time or even before. LIFE has released a handful of pretty colour pictures circa 1950s

  • BTW, as you can see, some issues remain very sensitive in our homeland. Kind of impossible to think out of the box

  • de todos modos no le echo la culpa a ella este es un pueblo de mmierda y tiene lo que se merece. y va a ser peor...

  • Bueno, sí, probablemente una parte del pueblo es mierda. Y es la parte en la que estás vos. Por suerte te van a comer los gusanos como a todos y no vas a llegar a ése momento con pensamientos puros. ACORDATE DE MI EN ESOS MOMENTOS: LOS GUSANOS NO PERDONAN NI SIQUIERA A LOS GUSANOS HUMANOS COMO VOS.

  • no le dio cancer por trabajar para los pobres, le dio por que le tenia que daqr como a cualquier persona.
