1 | * The Funny Moment is probably, from "Rainbow Tour": |
2 | -->'''Eva''': Did you hear that? They called me a whore! They actually called me a whore! |
3 | -->'''Admiral''': But, Senora Peron, [[DeadpanSnarker it's an easy mistake-]] [[HonestAdvisor I'm still called an admiral]]- [[ServileSnarker yet I gave up the sea long ago!]] |
4 | * Rainbow Tour actually has several subjectively funny moments. |
5 | ** "More bad news from Rome, she met with the Pope...she only got a rosary, a kindly word! I wouldn't say the holy father gave her the bird...but Papal decorations, never a hope! |
6 | ** "Italy's unconvinced by Argentine glory/They equate Peron with Mussolini - can't think why!" (In the film, Creator/AntonioBanderas [[AsideGlance gives a priceless look at the camera]].) |
7 | ** "Tired? Eva? Tired?" |
8 | ** "She filled a bullring/forty-five thousand seater/but if you're prettier than General Franco, that's not hard... |
9 | ** "I don't think she'll make it to England now"/"It wasn't on the schedule anyhow" |
10 | * "Good Night and Thank You" has a few: |
11 | -->'''Eva''': Oh, but it's sad when a love affair dies/The parting, the closing of doors/But we should be honest, stop fooling ourselves..." |
12 | -->'''Che''': ...which means "Up yours"! |
13 | |
14 | -->'''Eva''': Oh, but it's sad when a love affair dies/But when we were hot, we were hot!/I know you'll look back on the good times we shared... |
15 | -->'''Che''': ...but Eva will not! |
16 | |
17 | -->'''Eva''': Oh, but it's sad when a love affair dies/The decline into silence and doubt/Our passion was just too intense to survive--" |
18 | -->'''Che''': For God's sake, get out! |
19 | ** One especially amusing moment is during a later stanza of the song in which several of Eva's exes are collectively singing their woes of being tossed aside, and Che, as a busboy in a restaurant, briefly stands with them, resting his forearm on the shoulder of one of her exes, and joins them to sing "Oh but it's sad when a love-affair dies" [[RhymesOnADime with an expression as smarmy]] [[NarmCharm as it is utterly narmy]] before shooing them all out and closing the French-doors behind the dismissed exes before turning to fold his arms and '''[[LargeHam look]]''' at the camera. |
20 | * "''The Lady's Got Potential''" is pretty darn funny all the way through, given the [[DeadpanSnarker deadpan snark]]. Just the first verse tells you it will be an amusingly cynical re-telling of events. |
21 | -->'''Che''': In June of '43, there was a military coup/Behind it was a gang called the GOU/Who did not feel the need to be elected./They had themselves a party at the point of a gun/They were slightly to the right of Attila the Hun/A bomb or two and very few objected. |
22 | * ''"Eva and Magaldi"/"Eva, Beware of the City"'' has Che fire one at Magaldi, shocked that Eva sees more than a fling in him |
23 | --> '''Che''': Do all your one night stands give you this much trouble? |
24 | ** In the show, Che makes his opinion of Magaldi and his tango-singing ''very'' clear at the start of ''"Eva and Magaldi"'': |
25 | -->'''Magaldi''': The audience here are extremely hard going. |
26 | -->'''Che''': Listen chum, face the facts,/[[BrutalHonesty They don't like your act]]. |
27 | -->'''Magaldi''': But this is Junin!/If this were Buenos Aires, I'd have this crowd at my feet!/I never ever meet members of the public./They tear me apart. |
28 | -->'''Che''': [[DeadpanSnarker I understand their feelings]]. |
29 | * ''"Charity Concert"'' has Magaldi fire one at Eva, at the event in the company a high-ranking officer. |
30 | --> '''Eva''': Your act hasn't changed much. |
31 | --> '''Magaldi''': [[SocialClimber Neither has yours.]] |
32 | * Let's be real here. Given Che's status as the resident permanent DeadpanSnarker means that pretty much any time he opens his mouth, it's bound to be at least a little funny... Highlights other than those mentioned above include him not even bothering to learn the names of Eva's suitors and instead just calling them "whoever"; ''everything'' he says in "Peron's Latest Flame"; and this line: |
33 | -->'''Che''': We'd love you to stay but you'd be in the way/So do up your trousers and '''go'''. |
34 | * The SnarkToSnarkCombat of "''The Waltz For Eva And Che''" is quite funny too. At least before it descends into {{Tearjerker}} mode... |
