"But Madonna has a small amount of talent when it comes to movies"

This quote by Norman Jewison suggests that while Madonna is a gifted artist and entertainer, her skill does not encompass the realm of movie. Jewison is most likely referring to Madonna's acting profession, which has been consulted with blended reviews. While she has had some success in movies such as Desperately Seeking Susan and Evita, her efficiencies have actually been slammed for being too theatrical and lacking in subtlety. Jewison's quote indicates that Madonna's talent is best suited for music and efficiency, rather than film. This is not to state that Madonna is not capable of acting, however rather that her skills are much better fit to other mediums.
