Madonna has paid tribute to Evita director Sir Alan Parker, following news of his death on Friday.

The Queen of Pop starred as the First Lady of Argentina, Eva Peron, in the 1996 big-screen adaptation of the stage classic and, after the two-time Oscar nominee passed away on Friday morning following a long illness, she took to Instagram to remember him.

I was so sad to hear about the passing of Alan Parker. One of the greatest directors iI’ve ever worked with—on the film Evita. He taught me so much, believed in me ,pushed me to my limits and made an incredible film! Thank you! ?♥️ #alanparker #evita

A post shared by Madonna (@madonna) on Jul 31, 2020 at 5:29pm PDT

“He taught me so much, believed in me, pushed me to my limits and made an incredible film! Thank you,” she added, alongside a bunch of emojis.

Evita is the film adaptation of the Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice Broadway sensation, which won the Tony Award for Best Musical in 1980.

It co-starred Antonio Banderas and Jonathan Pryce, and went on to be honoured with several accolades, including Golden Globes for Best Original Song – Motion Picture, along with an Academy Award for Best Music, Original Song for You Must Love Me, which was created for the movie.

Madonna scored three UK Top 10 hits from the Evita soundtrack, including You Must Love Me, the classic Don’t Cry For Me Argentina, and Another Suitcase in Another Hall.
