Critiquing Madonna: Why Her Esthetic Choices Matter

I dipped my toe in the water of Madonna last week, mostly not identifying with a) having a strong opinion about her either way; b) finding it silly to have a strong opinion about the strong opinion of others. [*spoiler alert* I changed my mind.] Mostly, I thought she was a perfect fit for a starring in a remake of Sunset Blvd; since then, I also thought of Colette’s Chéri.
