      Nick, here's a few great musical film suggestions for you:
      Hamilton and In the Heights (both musicals from Lin-Manuel Miranda)
      You probably have to edit Hamilton a lot to avoid copy right strikes but you'll be mostly fine with In the Heights, the copy right there isn't so strict.

      @@valebellei26 Yes. Hirsutism is the excessive growth of stiff and pigmented hair on a woman in places where men usually get hair, like the face, chest, and back, as the result of an excess of testosterone or other male hormones called androgens. Nowadays, it can be treated with medicines, including oral contraceptives or anti-androgens, or by removing the hair with laser therapy, word electrolysis, or other typical hair removal processes as simple as shaving or waxing.

      It is true, I actually have it myself. Sucks a lot, especially if I don’t have time to shave in the morning and people stare at me in public. I was actually happy when masks became a thing. Also, hair removal is only temporary, no matter what you do in most cases because your body just regrows new hair, even with laser. And unless you start treatment as soon as you show symptoms, the hair becomes permanent. My mom just kept saying it was a phase of puberty and it would stop but after years of being bullied about it I went to the doctor and they said the hair follicles had been there too long for the drugs to get rid of what I already had. So the medication prevents it from getting worse but I still grow a beard and have chest hair unless I shave or wax.

    You need to watch the behind the scenes video of them "testing out" the Come Back Home song. The bearded lady actress is an amazing singer and starts getting emotional. And Hugh Jackman had recently had a skin cancer removal or something on his nose, so his doctor told him not to talk too loud or sing for awhile. But Hugh was so moved by the song that he ends up belting it out.
    Edit: Sorry got the two stories/videos confused. It was From Now On Hugh Jackman ended up belting out. It was This Is Me the actress got so emotional that Hugh got emotional.

      But besides Les Mis, every other movie musical, every actor is lip syncing and the songs are prerecorded in studios

    Hey Nick, if you liked this movie, I’d like to recommend the movie “Hugo” - it’s not a musical and it’s a bit older but it has this similar magical feeling about it and the story was so memorable for me as a kid :)

    Everyone's commenting on how good the movie is, but can I bring up the reaction itself? I've never seen such pure contentment and borderline wholesomeness on a person's face before, and it's so wonderful to see it with someone like NickFlix.

    The Greatest Showman is one of my new favorite musicals. I’d say “Rewrite The Stars,” and “Come Back Home” are especially my favorites of the bunch.
    Also, I don’t know if you saw the Disney film, Zootopia, back in 2016, or not, but there are areas where I find at least minor similarities between Zootopia, and The Greatest Showman. The biggest ones, I would say, would be with both P.T., and Judy both being dreamers, and both of them having a falling out, and then reconciling near the end. Granted one was a romantic relationship, while the other was a platonic one, but still.
    Anyway, I would give this one a 10/10 for sure. Well, great job yet again!

    Ahh I'm so happy you reacted and liked it! It really is such a wonderful movie and always cheers me up. If you look closely at Zac Efron during the final song, when he runs onto the stage, his double tail coat completely changes to a shorter jacket ( starting around 36:27) x

    Such a great movie. I remember my daughter and my niece seeing this before I did. They were singing all the songs. I had to buy it for them. No regrets. Simply well done. My favorite part is the "This Is Me" song the bearded lady sings after they are excluded from the party.

  • @bobbyclarkston8836
    @bobbyclarkston8836 Před 2 lety +1

    The “Never Enough” song was not performed by the actress but she did learn to mimic singing it. She claimed to be passable but not that accomplished. The song is performed by Loren Allred.

    @twist58 Před 2 lety +1

    The Other Side is such an underrated song in this entire movie. Because why should "The Greatest Show," "This Is Me," "Rewrite the Stars," or "A Million Dreams" get all the attention?
    What's unique about that song other than the performance of it alone between Hugh Jackman and Zac Efron is that even the bartender was in on the choreography of it too!

    Im a bit late on this one but I had to watch the movie before I could see this reaction !
    Please do not apologize for crying , real genuine emotion is what a lot of watchers not only want but need. The magic in reactions is that it makes you feel like you are watching something again for the first time, I love crying with reactors and getting to re-feel a movie emotionally with reactors, you’re doing an amazing job !

  • @judeless77

    This was the hardest of your reactions for me to watch.. only because I adore this movie so much it's SO HARD to not be able to hear the songs in full 😂 I can't sing along if it's edited haha
    This is one of my all time favorite musicals and I legitimately listen to this soundtrack at least 3 times a month. So happy you finally got to watch it ♥️
    Never apologize for tearing up, that shows the mark of an amazing movie doing it's job. If it wasn't good, it wouldn't effect you enough to make your emotions react to it.
    So tearing up, getting mad, getting scared; physical reactions to movies prove how amazing those movies truely are! And that's the entire point of being a reactor.

    I had the chance to go to one of Hugh Jackman's 'concert' tour shows that he did all around the world in 2019, where they performed a lot of these songs :) It was so awesome to see Hugh sing and perform live (also Keala Settle was there too to perform This is Me!) and it made me fall in love with this film even more ♥

  • @juliapakarinen7956
    @juliapakarinen7956 Před 3 lety +1

    t always moves me how during “The Greatest Show”, Barnum’s hat circles in the hands of almost every performer and ends up back in his hands before he gives it to Phillip. I might over-interpret it, but I see it as them thanking each other for the work they have done together and accepting P.T.’s choice. Phillip has really turned from an “overcompensated apprentice” into a junior partner and eventually more than he ever dared to dream of - a leader, who gets to perform side by side with his one true love. I like that there are no verbally expressed thank yous, it is all in their eyes and actions. It is a literal, bittersweet and lovely presentation of “Show must go on.” And now I am emotional. Even though it isn't historically accurate, this is one of my favorite musicals ever made. Thank you for your emotional and genuine reaction.

    Oh this just made my whole week!! I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!! Did you know that the scene between Zac and Hugh was done practically? They literally rehearsed that until they could do all the tricks with the shot glasses! And because they couldn't put actual whiskey in the shot glasses, they used sweet tea! There is so much to the behind the scenes of this movie. Hugh worked for seven years to get this project green lit. And it is incredible! And Zac and Zendaya actually did all the acrobatics for their song. No net, they just trained until they could do it. I can't even with this movie!!! And boy was I pissed at Jenny! At first I thought her song was talking about Barnum, and how no matter how successful he was it wouldn't be enough. But no. It was her all along. Her saying that if she couldn't have Barnum, no amount of fame and money would satisfy her. I just. That witch!! And then setting him up with that kiss, trying to ruin his life. I still hate her character in the movie. And honestly Nick, if this movie and these songs didn't move you to tears, I'd be genuinely concerned for you.

    Even though this film was told upfront to be an imaginative biopic based on real history, i still remembered how this was all everyone talked about when it first came out. And rightfully so! I remember this as being the movie that i saw 3 TIMES in the cinemas. Most movies i've seen in my live, I've watched twice. But after three times, and i still loved it. The energy this movie had within the cinema was just amazing. It had charm, it was catchy. But most of all, it really felt like that whenever the characters sing, it felt so alive. It took my breath away!
