- The time is now! Watch an extended intro of #InTheHeightsMovie
and see it only in cinemas June 24.
The creator of “Hamilton” and the director of “Crazy Rich Asians” invite you to a cinematic event, where the streets are made of music and little dreams become big... “In the Heights.”
Lights up on Washington Heights...The scent of a cafecito caliente hangs in the air just outside of the 181st Street subway stop, where a kaleidoscope of dreams rallies this vibrant and tight-knit community. At the intersection of it all is the likeable, magnetic bodega owner Usnavi (Anthony Ramos), who saves every penny from his daily grind as he hopes, imagines and sings about a better life.
“In the Heights” fuses Lin-Manuel Miranda’s kinetic music and lyrics with director Jon M. Chu’s lively and authentic eye for storytelling to capture a world very much of its place, but universal in its experience.
“In the Heights” stars Anthony Ramos (“A Star is Born,” Broadway’s “Hamilton”), Corey Hawkins (“Straight Outta Compton,” “BlacKkKlansman”), singer/songwriter Leslie Grace, Melissa Barrera (TV’s “Vida”), Olga Merediz (Broadway’s “In the Heights”), Daphne Rubin-Vega (Broadway’s “Rent”), Gregory Diaz IV (Broadway’s “Matilda the Musical”), Stephanie Beatriz (TV’s “Brooklyn Nine-Nine”), Dascha Polanco (TV’s “Orange is the New Black”) and Jimmy Smits (the “Star Wars” films).
Chu directed the film from a screenplay by Quiara Alegría Hudes, based on the musical stage play, music and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda, book by Quiara Alegría Hudes and concept by Miranda. Miranda, Hudes, Scott Sanders, Anthony Bregman and Mara Jacobs produced the film, with David Nicksay and Kevin McCormick serving as executive producers.
Behind the camera, Chu reunited with his “Crazy Rich Asians” production designer, Nelson Coates, and editor, Myron Kerstein. He also collaborated with director of photography Alice Brooks (TV’s “The Walking Dead”) and costume designer Mitchell Travers (“Eighth Grade”). Original songs by Miranda. Alex Lacamoire (“Fosse/Verdon”) and Bill Sherman (“Sesame Street”) served as executive music producers. The choreography is by Christopher Scott, who previously teamed with Chu on the award-winning “The Legion of Extraordinary Dancers.”
“In the Heights” was filmed in New York, primarily on location in the dynamic community of Washington Heights.
Warner Bros. Pictures presents a 5000 Broadway / Barrio Grrrl! / Likely Story / SGS Pictures Production, A Jon M. Chu Film, “In the Heights.”, the film will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures. - Krátké a kreslené filmy
I’m glad they got some of the original Broadway ensemble cast to be part of the dance crew.
Lin wrote this
@@carrots7216 Lin and Chris Jackson are there too, but I’m talking about Broadway ensemble crew. Nina Lafarga, Stephanie Klemons (the OBC dance captain) ,Seth Stewart and Luis Salgado were on this scene.
Ya know why? Because they effin cared!
OMG THE ORIGINAL HAMILTON CREW THOUGH!
@@kinpin66 yes and no. Lin, Chris Jackson, Stephanie Klemons and Seth Stewart are OBC of Hamilton, but Nina was dance captain of “On your feet” at the time, and Luis Salgado was touring with JLo when Hamilton started, after the tour was over he also joined “On your feet”.
“I am Usnavi and you’ve probably never heard my name!”
*Oh Usnavi, you have no idea..*

“I hang my flag up on display, it reminds me that I came from miles away” the first time they say that is so powerful I got so emotional
true
That part got me bawling, man
I’m latina, Chile born and raised, that part always make me tear up
The part where they add" My Family came from miles away!" Really hits as a 3rd generation latino. Because we as 3rd and 4th generation Latinos have always been in the US, we were born here but our families, our parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles were from miles away in our respective countries of origin. We are here because of them. And we often forget that. Its good to remind yourself you wouldn't be here without them.
@@burgerbro34fullstreamarchi82 i get you, i moved to the US when i was 25, i’m the first generation of my family
Ok I really enjoyed the whole thing but something about how Nina's dad sings "good moooorning Usnavi" just butters my biscuit. It's so smooth and nice and I love it.
Yeeeesss it's so nice
Jimmy Smits always gets a smile outta me!!

Yesssss
YESSSS SAMEEEE AND ALSO DANIELAS “WHOS IN THERE WITH YOU JULIO?” LOVE IT
This is such a good movie. I love how Lin-Manuel Miranda keeps inviting people from past projects to continue to work with him. It was so cool to see his parents in this movie. I hope he makes more musicals for Broadway and/or film.
His parents were in this?!
@@mjwildy2359 yeah, in breathe, lin's parents are the old couple that come out of the car to welcome back nina.

No way. Not “dark enough”.

The writing of Lin Manuel is so recognizable! I don’t know what it is but I can hear his touch in the music and lyrics, even the vocabulary is a parallel to Hamilton and Moana. Incredible talent!
Personally I think it’s repetitive, like he won big with Hamilton and will ride the wave and fame of it as long as he can…
@@matthewmcinnes7253 Tf is repetitive about this? Its completely different. The only similarity is the genre
@@matthewmcinnes7253 in the heights was literally made before hamilton
Ugh people just don’t like different opinions do they. I’m my opinion manuels music and writing is very repetitive in the same way the pianist ludivico einaudis songs are recogniseaple due to reused motifes. The difference is those are surrounded by so many amazing and unique things. Manuel to me seems to just repeat the same things in every song. Just with different words.
@@matthewmcinnes7253 dude what
why are you even here
I love how it only zooms in on usnavi near the end because it symbolizes that he is just like everyone else just trying to get by and he isn't really special he is just a dude in a crowd with his people and nothing more so he doesn't stick like a normal main protagonist he blends in and its just kinda beautiful
You described the reason this movie failed
@@ryanhuber5764 I liked it so who cares it failed it was good to me and that's all i needed
Yes!!! The way they address identity in this movie is so so so beautiful and subtly different, as a second generation immigrant (not Latin) I can see myself and my own mindset and struggles reflected so clearly in characters like Nina, Sonny and even Usnavi (although he technically is first gen as he moved when he was young, I could see the effect that had on his sense of identity end belonging to the country as well).

@@bananacustard9920 Mr Piraguëro
3:25 it was so weird to see Stephanie Beatriz in this role being all giddy and smiling because I’ve only seen her in Brooklyn nine-nine 🤣
Agreed
ikr
I just realized, some actors here were in B99:
Stephanie is Rosa
Kevin is Amy's dad
Abuela is Rosa's mom
Lin is Amy's brother
Yet another thing she hid from the nine-nine
She was also in Modern Family
i am absolutely obsessed with the way that not everyone in the ensemble is doing the exact same dance. it makes the scene so much more authentic because of its imperfection, they'd all look like robots otherwise
I don't know, they all look pretty in sync to me. Maybe you'd find one person not dancing in unison, but unless your purposefully looking for that, yeah, they're pretty much all In sync.
@@octavianjoseph8633 Well, even if they weren't all perfectly in-sync, they would have their own way of dancing which I think goes to show all the different cultures
@@broadwaybrook2319 Yeah, that does make sense...
@@octavianjoseph8633 they are all in sync, but it's the fact that some are doing it differently then others. As the movie says "little details", like some people add extra twists, or some are smoother, or some make bigger movements. It's great to watch!
Bro you should definitely watch Hamilton
This type of musical reminds me when I loved the dream that I thought was America
You are correct.Democrats have exploiting our people and embarrassing us in front of everyone, labeling us as these weak helpless people that need help. The country has become so racist, identifying people by their nationality is so stupid. I have done better than many of white friends. Without any assistance from anyone.
@@NuNuRokd you managed, how many can't get up because thay're smashed by ridicuolus wages, medical costs and much more?
@@dani.lepore9410 Low wages can be relative to the amount of debt your accumulate. 12 an hour at McDonald's with zero debt and a small apt Trumps 50k a year with with Credit cards, car loans, newest tech, mortgage etc etc.. Take care of yourself, why do people want people.to care for them? That's the problem. Be responsible.
@@NuNuRokd Ambos bandos han explotado a los latinos. Los latinos no somos un pueblo, somos de muchas personas. Como chicano, mi experiencia es diferente a la de un cubano o un puertorriqueño. Mi experiencia con los republicanos no ha sido buena.
@@NuNuRokd I totally agree with you. That party wants to keep minorities down. Everyone comes to the USA because this is the land of opportunity. I used to support that party for a loooong time but I finally realized they are the worse of the 2 and do not want us to succeed for whatever reason. We all gotta work hard and we will make it. It is not easy but we can all do it!!!
You know what? I think I actually prefer Anthony Ramos in the role of Usnavi to Lin Manuel-Miranda... He just seems so natural and charismatic in this.
my friends and i keep saying that when lin plays usnavi he’s an annoying character with a major superiority complex, but anthony gives him warmth.
Lin said himself that when he wrote in the heights he didn’t know anything about Anthony but he felt like he wrote this character specifically for him.
Lin prefers Anthony as Usnavi so you're REALLY not alone in that opinion.
I think Lin plays him as more of a guy going to do everything to get his dream and who thinks he’s better than the heights, Anthony plays him more like a regular dude who can’t believe it when his dream is coming true even though he worked hard for it (and is a lil better at singing imo)
Oh absolutely! It’s been years since I watched the Broadway production and honestly after this I don’t want to watch it 😂
I dont know if its just me, but i noticed each character has a different tune in their part of the song. Mr Rosario is like more relaxed, Benny has some hip hop tunes, the salon ladies kinda sound like salsa. Its probable intentional but i noticed just now and its a really fun detail
Stephen Sondheim had a lot of rules when it comes to songwriting, one of which is “Content dictates form”. Which mean their characters reflect on how their songs are written. And since this is an introduction of the characters, we get an idea of what they’re like. You can even look at this as foreshadowing the later songs.
Oh it's definitely intentional, Lin-Manuel Miranda is a master of musical character themes
It's Lin of course it is
Lin actually said in a couple of interviews that that's his favorite part of making musicals, giving each character their own style and musical essence.
For example, whenever abuela Claudia was talking/singing, there would be cuban music in the background, and whenever Usnavi was talking/singing there would be a type of hip-hop music in the background, and when the two of them interacted there would be a mix of these two styles in the background. Genius idea and execution imo
I think we see this with Vanessa too, her parts sound a lot more like mainstream pop?
Great movie. But side note, Anthony Ramos is legitimately one of the most beautiful men I've ever seen.
TRUTH
I agree
???
@@squiddyft.insecurities3549 what??
@@wiliamkasper4844 nothing. i just think your opinion is kind of wrong 🤨
After the movie "les Miserables" I was left with zero interest to ever watch another musical but the rythm, the optimism, the colour that this movie brings captures the re-birth of society after covid. Its like a Disney animated movie but with real people.
The music is great but the characters were forgettable even usnavi. Nobody stuck out to me. Love the songs tho.
@@sharpaycutie2 did we watch the same musical? Lol i thought the characters were amazing
one of my favorite scenes is towards the end when the power is out and theyre having a party to say goodbye to the hairdressers. In the middle of the song, Vanessa and Sonny stop and try to get everyone to realize that they're "powerless", that they're underprivileged and in danger and they can't fight back against the system. Usnavi pulls Sonny aside and is like, "Yeah, we know. We're up shit's creek, and there's nothing we can do. So we may as well be happy in the moment with each other." This really struck me, this undercurrent of anger and resentment at how they're treated by the world at large. Is it justified for them to decide to be happy in the moment, or should they stay angry and cognizant of they're situation?
To be fair to musicals...the stage version of Les Mis is incredible. It’s just the movie that’s terrible.
So, the movie version of les mis is terrible because it's from the same guy that did the cats movie. Dude just doesn't understand musicals and pushes his performers to use dangerous singing techniques.
Here's to hoping Latin Musicals become the next Bollywood.
sadly it wont happen. the movie bombed at the box office. I was hoping it was going to be a big hit...but no....american audences said NO...to hispanic theme movies
You mean Hollywood right lol? Bollyhood is basically the equivalent to Hollywand in India haha.
@@MM-ox5go you know, there's also the pandemic going on, plus it was released on HBO Max at the same time as theatrical release. Of course it "bombed" at the box office.
PLEASE i would love that
@@katsuki1stan I'm aware. I'm talking about the industry of Bollywood having an entire cast of Indians and telling stories that are relatable to the Indian population with several songs added in. If the same can be done for the Latino culture that would be great.
I liked how the whole beat changed when Benny started rapping
That happens with everybody. Every time a new character is introduced, the musical style changes. I could break them down, but I don't know enough about music.

Lol
When Sonny says ‘chilax , you know ya love me’ sounds exactly like an actual teenager. BTW I’m new to In the Heights
Well he is one lol
Same, recently discover this and it's an incredible production
Benny was honestly a highlight of the movie to me. he absolutely knocked it out of the park. including daniela and carla too, they were amazing and great casual lgbt representation :)
Gurl same he is so iconic and hilarious
Giant Chris Jackson sized shoes to fill, but Corey Hawkins crushed it. It's insane to me that he played Dr. Dre in Straight Outta Compton haha
@@giggsworth8678 yea and fun fact in his intro there are the iconic piano cords from “Still D.R.E” playing as he walks in. funny way that played out, listen closely.
sameee omg
yes! loved the LGBT representation.
5:46 I love how Sonny joins Benny it the "you ain't got no skills" part, they clearly have so much fun with this whole Unsavi-Vanessa situation and it gives a great take on their friendship
3:44 I love how even Usnavi got into the gossip
can we just appreciate that Sunny got way more character development and a serious storyline and shit, I loved it 🥰🥰
Right but she did such a good job
As opposed to....some other character that didn't get development?
@@octavianjoseph8633 as opposed to the original musical Sonny who was just a side character, we got nothing about him being undocumented, his alcoholic (and possibly abusive) father or how he was generally just more mature and wasn’t presented as a stupid kid with big dreams
@@octavianjoseph8633 you know this was a stage musical first, right? In the stage show sonny didn't have much development.
He doesn't get a lot of BACKSTORY, but he has plenty of CHARACTER. There is more than one way to develope a character.
you can tell Lin wrote this musical and i love it!
Yup u hear Lin's style and I love it . It reminded me of Hamilton so much
@@Totallyme.3 fun fact this was Lins first musical before Hamilton
He.....did...? You worded that as if you indirectly never knew that.

The harmony for “Thanks Usnavi” is so satisfying.
2:40 This little girl getting her hair done gave me visceral flashbacks
3:57 Carla's little "bye!" To Usnavi when she, Daniela and Cuca leave the bodega is so cute and I am just in love with this cute little bimbo.

@@Stronglarry73 ikr
Cuca thirsting for Anthony Ramos and i don't blame her
IM MAD THEY NEVER GAVE HER A NAME
@Ella ASHTON cuca is like a pet name in spanish, like how ‘babe’ is in english
Dude at no point did I think that Anthony was awkward or cringey as usnavy, it’s kinda impressive tbh
He played the role on stage as well, so he had a lot of time to get used to the character. Still, it was an impressively seamless switch from Lin (who most people are probably more used to hearing) to Anthony.
i think anthony's usnavi is more close to the image i personally associate with an average guy from NYC who grew up in washington heights and had to learn street smarts to get by, he has this chill laid back demeanor
2:59 my favourite part, ughhh his voice 💘 so underrated
sameeee
He was in the west wing and my heart the time I saw him ❤️
Good mOOOOOrning usnAaAAvi
Damn this is good stuff
I think that was the first phrase I heard from this musical, and I agree.
Why am I crying?? This was so moving. It is is so special to see my culture represented in such a positive way on the big screen.
i cried the whole movie lol
the carnaval del barrio scene makes me so warm and happy. this whole film is amazing and does a good job in representing hispanic culture
Fun fact: Lin didn’t need any costumes or hair and makeup. He also wasn’t even supposed to be in the movie. He’s an actual Piragua dad
At first I thought Carla and Daniella were like mother and daughter figures together bc of the age difference and they work together and the innocent kids at the start between Carla and Daniella was like a good morning mama sort of thing but now I realise it’s an on screen relationship!
All to say I’m loving it and I don’t think age matters much in a relationship unless it’s massive and I’m very happy
4:28 this scene would not be completed if sonny was not on the backround

6:20 love the dead look in homegirls eyes
I think her song lyrics were kind of blah, I don’t if it’s just me or that’s just how they decided present her character
@@basicbrownbish1002 It's probably because her entire character motivation is "moving out" and her main character arc revolves around UST with Usnavi. (Both of which are kinda basic, especially in comparison to multifaceted characters like Nina or Abuela.)
@@Tersina totally agree, but what is UST? i also found it vexing that she and usnavi never properly address or converse about their conflicting motivations - they address it here qnd there when Usnavi makes comments about ‘home being where Vanessa is running away from’, but I think that conflict would have really been interesting to see play out since a lot of us immigrants from whichever country face this with our peers and family .
@@blkbarbie2671 ust = unresolved sexual tension

@@snowleopard064 even in the movie it's clear that it's not a typical thing from him. "Must be a lucky day" "gotta be" it's only because Nina just flew in.
this is awkward to say but it’s weird to see dominican culture represented so well in “mainstream” media. for example when Stephanie grabbed a pack of Festival cookies or when they were having queso frito y salami for breakfast. they’re small details but it’s refreshing to see that millions of people grew up like i did and despite being “immigrants” we still maintain our culture wherever we go.
as a cuban, it's so difficult to find movies that represent my culture correctly. in the heights is an AMAZING film that all latinos/hispanos can relate to. lin manuel miranda is a genius and loved by all of us :)

This show and this song specifically have always given me an indescribable feeling. I’m white and middle-class, so I’ll never understand what this is like, and the struggle that immigrants and their descendants have to go through in this country. To have this show, which is a story that comes from a place of love from someone who grew up in Washington Heights to in some ways show what it means and feels to have that experience always inspires an appreciation for these people and their culture. It makes me want to know more, to listen, to try and understand. I realize a musical will really only ever be able to present a somewhat idealized version of these things, but I feel like it’s a start.
Why is Benny so iconic and funny lol
I remember watching the musical with Corbin Blue. I was so mad we couldn’t get tickets for Mama mia 😂 but ended up loving this musical so much!

@@danielacampos2720 oh
OMG, you saw this with Corbin?!? Lucky! :) He seems like a lovely person; he will always be Chad to me though.
Anthony being in both Hamilton and in the heights gives me a nice sense of comfyness, and lin being in the intro is super funny.
I showed this to my mom yesterday. Couldnt get a spanish version to I ended up translating the movie as it went and thought I was ruining it for her, but she loved it. She says the only issue she has it not being able to see Nina in the final song, helping her people. I was so happy to hear her talking about how the movie reminded her of our old bodega in Brooklyn. Unlike Usnavi, my family did end up moving back to the4 DR once we had sufficient savings but this story is like a throw back to our lives 20 years ago.
HBOMax has a Spanish version.
8:11 always gives me chills😭💗 can’t stop watching.

SAMEEEE!
5:24 favorite part he can Singggg
he so fine too
The shot of Usnavi looking out of the window with the dancers in the reflection is my favorite shot I've ever seen in a movie. It is so beautiful and I get teary-eyed everytime I watch it. In fact, the cinematography as a whole in this movie is BRILLIANT!! Def my favorite movie from the last few years.
Guatemalan who lived in NYC here. Latinos in NYC always, and I mean always, know their roots and know that we gotta carry on this great opportunity that we were given when we immigrated to the USA. Absolutely love how literally the entire intro is focused on how we roll throughout the day and how we always cherish what we were given
Man I found out about In The Heights shortly after Hamilton blew up on Disney+ at the start of last year through Spotify. Normally I just skip songs I've never heard before on Spotify because I'm a creature of habit and like to listen to the same old songs so the fact that I even found it was a miracle in itself. But the moment I heard "That was Abuela, she's not really my Abuela, but she practically raised me, this corner is her escuela now." I was so hooked that I opened up the entire soundtrack and dived in. I loved every song. Then I even found out they were gonna make a movie that was set to release in summer 2020! I couldn't believe it! I just found this awesome thing and only a few months from now it's gonna be a movie! But then of course COVID hit and the movie was pushed back a year. Not only did that suck but work started slowing down despite being considered essential (turns out it doesn't matter if you're essential, when there is an unknown pathogen roaming around people aren't too keen to hire construction workers). The point I'm trying to get at here is that, that Broadway soundtrack kept me in balance for the majority of 2020 and now to finally hear those words again, even if the movie isn't perfect, it brings me to tears regardless.
“It’s all about the legacy”
“I shoulder his legacy with pride, I used to hear him say someday I would blow us all away.”
I listened to the musical after listening to Hamilton and my family REALLY didn’t want to, so I was the only one in the house who had listened to In The Heights. Until the movie came out. And my parents were like “wow now I see why she likes this so much.” I love it all
Edit: Okay After Watching Hazbin Hotel and listening to Daphne in the original rent, I don't think you understand how much I love this woman. And Stephanie between Encanto, Brooklyn 99, this and Hazbin Hotel?! Please.

I cried during this movie. So many emotions I feel like plays sometimes can’t convey. Quality, scenery, vocals, camerawork. Everything goes together to tell a story
peep what Usnavi said at- 7:45 - “the day we go from poverty to stock options” 👀
I literally melted when Benny started singing
Them using this as the first song was a power move.
What? It's the opening of the stage show too.
It's a wonderful song, but as Molly L points out, it has always been the first song in the musical.
The shift form Benny’s sing-song music to Vanessa’s bass solo is 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
lin manuel miranda is a genius and he knows which actors fit well with literally most characters 80 percent of the time and the actors are hella good even with small roles like the piragua guy and the people just in the background dancing or walking for coffee
Next time I go on a cruise, I wanna see performers doing "In the Heights." (That means YOU, Royal Caribbean!)
We don't get enough films showcasing the beauty of these communites.
anthony ramos: “Hey y’all good morning”
Me: dies
anthony ramos: “here’s your cafe con-leche”
Me: dies
anthony ramos: does anything or sings any line
Me: dies
Fr I kept replaying that “ Ayo Goodmorning “😗
I'm not really a fan of musicals but I absolutely loved this movie.
This screams HARDWORK and I’am so proud for every person working hard right now to survive no matter whats your occupation is. Keep going guys!!!
1:48 that beat be hitting hard👏👏
Maybe this was established in the musical and I just missed it but does anybody know WHY Usnavi owes Vanessa a bottle of cold champagne??? This has been on my mind since like 2010 lol
“Lin-Manuel Miranda has confirmed that Vanessa and Usnavi had a long-standing bet that whoever first got out of the neighborhood owed the other a bottle of champagne.” (From the Genius page)
@@user-qv2qf1jk5o thanks! Glad I finally have an answer!!!
@@user-qv2qf1jk5o dude you just solved someone’s decade long question
@@user-qv2qf1jk5o THAT MAKES A LOT OF SENSE!
Because when Vanessa said that he owed her the champagne, he immediately asked if she was moving. That makes a lot of sense now.
@@raedanipear OHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! i thought he was asking her if she was "moving" like going somewhere after, in the sense that he would be able to ask her to go out tonight. that makes much more sense
Latino Hamilton looks pretty good.
These songs are way better tho lol
This may suck as much as Hamilton only time will tell.
@@jamesm.3967 but neither of them sucked
@Kyle Sales you’re white your opinion doesn’t matter
@@seoulku says who
Lin and Anthony can’t stay apart from each other! Love it!
As someone who’s obsessed with various choreographers and dancers, I can’t BELIEVE Emilio Dosal not only choreographed parts of the dance numbers, but was in most of the numbers, and I didn’t even notice until I rewatched the movie 😂 (He’s first at 7:08 and then 8:15, in gray and a hat to the front left). I love this guy he’s so damn talented!! This movie really put the beauty in the details ❤️
HIGHLY recommend to check Emilio Dosal out if you like hella talented choreographers/dancers! His style is so cool.
One thing I don’t get: wouldn’t his customers notice that their coffee is suddenly sweet as shit 😂
There’s unsweetened condensed milk but I had the same thought because I usually by the sweet stuff
@@eirsavanflur4143 AND he gives Benny FIVE SUGARS in his coffee already!
He can always add a little less milk than usual
this is going to be brutal
SPOILER
The part that had me crying was when Abuela died
@@judeedwards7192 wow f you that was extremely rude
CAN CONFIRM I WAS SOBBING BY THE END 😭😭
@@judeedwards7192 look mans just because you say spoiler doesn’t make it okay when you can literally see the spoiler without thinking, not to mention it’s in a CZcams reply so there’s no warning
@@judeedwards7192 I started crying after Abuela's death and never stoped after
I just can't get over how good this is.
Lin has the smallest roll in the intro but he just nails it to the point where the character can be recognised anywhere
damn that piragua guy was pretty good, seems like he has some serious potential to be famous some day
The nostolgica when i hears lin and anthony's voice😭
mr. Rossario's verse just sounds so wholesome and sweet even tho its short i still love it
if this doesn’t win the oscar for sound design idek what life is
I don't think "Anthony did it better" nor do I think "Lin did it better". They both acted as Usnavi but I feel like they delivered the character in their own ways, and I feel that you could even consider them different characters. Each one has their charm, you can like one more than the other but it doesn't mean one was worse and the other better.
When I say I cried almost this entire movie I'm not exaggerating. Sure I cried at the sad parts, but every large group number had me in tears. The passion of everyone on screen, the fantastic cinematography, the choreography. Everytime I saw the trailer I cried and it was no different when I saw the movie. Truly the best movie musical to come out in a LONG time.
I've got large hopes for West Side Story, please don't let me down Stephen!
I love Carla, Cuca and Daniela my queens
Especially carla, NINE NINE!
You see I'm brazilian so I'm not able to directly relate,, but! The energy is so much closer to home than any USA movies I always see, it feels so nice and refreshing,, latino american culture is really some good stuff :)
Ai, amg, o tanto que eu amo esse filme e a energia que ele passa de nós latinos é maravilhosa!
I love the Lin cameo at the beginning
4:29 watched this three times for Sonny’s antics behind Usnavi 😂
Do you know what that is that Benny gives Sonny and he puts it on Vanessa's coffee? I know Usnavi smacks it off, but can't figure out what it is.
@@sabrinafisher136 I think it’s a pen he was giving Usnavi to write his number on the cup!
“ No me diga!” Man, I just Love how Usnavi got into the salone ladys. 😂
this is one of the most magnificent tributes to the Spirit of NYC - I owned a small mom n pop biz in NYC and this ...THIS expressed well the community Spirit that comprises New York - it is all a tapestry of small towns woven together in one big Apple of cohesion. God I miss NYC!!! Lin Manuel Miranda - Holy S**t!!
I love the line "My family came from miles away" has the same attitude as "Immigrants, we get the job done"
