This scene destroyed me. The choreography is absolutely brilliant, and the beams of light transforming into subway poles was incredible.
THAT TRANSITION WAS SO AMAZING
SMOOOTTTHHHHH
And also when New Yorkers turned into dancers when the light flicked
This scene was the best scene of the whole movie. It was so beautiful
I KNOW RIGHT
I went into this movie blind. Never saw the Broadway musicals. Didn't know the songs. This scene hit me like a ton of bricks. Her story, her struggles, I've heard it told from many ppl throughout my life. I think what made me bawl the hardest was when she took the stairs instead of the ramp. Hardworking til the end. 😭
I went in similarly! I had listened to some of the songs, when this one started I was loving it, then I realized what was going on and I started bawling-
YO i have an ENTIRE Ted talk just for this song but THE STAIRS. I said the exact same thing.
That was such an important detail - every Cuban abuela, I know it's mine - and it made my heart jump. Like....to have this story and these words and this representation on the big screen was just....no words, just heart and tears.
Oh my god me too!!! All I knew was I already loved Abuela and when she laid down I knew something bad was going to happen and quite literally cried the rest of the movie
As someone who has walked both those stairs and the ramp, I think the stairs are easier.
She spent her last moment while looking at her kids having a great time 😩❤️🩹
🤧🤧🤧
And even in the end she took the stairs instead of the ramp hardworking until the very end
@@Bulbaf3tt omygosh, I never thought of this.. It's great!!!
My grandma did the same exactly a year ago, except we were all together on Zoom. We all knew she was about to go yet when she did pass, none of us were looking. Needless to say, this scene hit me like a truck 😭
She even got to see the stars again
When you realise this song is basically her life flashing before her eyes-
Oh this broke my heart even further
Right, to me at the end of the scene in the movie, it seemed like a "light at the end of the tunnel" to me. Especially because it was-- well, a tunnel
Woo! Pain
The best change made in the adaptation.
My reaction was your pfp
*I made it through, I survived, I did it. Now do I leave or stay?*
Wasn't ready for this damn lyric. Already thrown off with the piano beginning, I literally bursted into tears. Lin-Manuel captured the feeling of an immigrant or child of immigrants with those words. I myself someone who left their country at nine with my mom, now at a crossroad of going back or staying where I am. Truly a beautiful film that made me feel so proud of being a latino.
I guess it had a double meaning because I thought it was about her choosing to cross over to the afterlife
@@yperm7520 It is but I think the lyrics also fit an immigrant experience because it's one more version of the film's theme of migration - the symbol of the birds flying to and from a place, the idea of what 'a better place' is and what you give up or fight for to get there. Obviously Nina, Vanessa, and Usnavi are all wondering where "better off" is, but for Claudia the better place is literally "going to a better place" and being able to finally rest knowing she's taken care of her people.
@@yperm7520 yea but in the original musical I’m pretty sure she didn’t die in this song
@@_catelin_ yes but also the lyrics of that part are completely different she talks about winning the lottery and doesn't say anything about leaving
It’s so good. 😭
The fact they recontextualized this number so she is watched her life as she goes on to see her mother again was so genius. Jon M did amazing. And Abela's academy award is coming in the mail for her
Ohh, I hope Olga Merediz wins an award for this. It's a bit of a shame tho that the song itself isn't eligible for the Best Original Song category.
It's so beautiful. God bless 💓
I love the “YOU BETTER CLEAN THIS MESS, YOU BETTER LEARN INGLÉS” part
Me too!
Same
same, that dancer terrified Abuela was great too..
The whole of the song rings so true to most of the hispanic community especially in my parents and more so grandparents time
Where's your green card? You should have learned fluent english to become an American.
How can so many people still be ignorant that for over a century now anyone born in PR is an American citizen.
But that verse in particular is a beautiful representation of how we put the lessons of our culture into daily practice.
Paciencia Y Fe will see us through the worst life can throw at us
Same its my favorite part of this song!
"I spend my life inheriting dreams from you" that line just absolutely KILLS me. The way Olga delivers it, is just so beautiful and bittersweet and absolutely perfect. Gives me chills every time.
Yes! I thought this too the first time I heard it!
My favorite line. The whole song is great but that line just gets me.
The soft beginning was so emotional and raw 💛🙌🥺
I was just saying this!! It's gives more power to the song.
@@margarces08 IKR?! I'ts so heart breaking. I havent seen the movie yet, but I can picture out abuela claudia singing to herself in a dark room.
@@aliloreno yes! Exactly. Or maybe sitting in the stairs watching the sky, mumbling "calor, calor, calor..." and then going into this powerful song.
Indeed.
@@aliloreno you’re right
This was my favorite number in the movie. I really liked how they embraced the fact that the song wasn't happening in the real world to create an outstanding scene! The buildup all the way to that end is so powerful and wonderful!
I completely agree. Cried a lot
The way they played with the song to fit the scene is genius
I was expecting the scream at the beginning but now I'm in tears, that doesn't matter. It really sets the tone of the movie.
Indeed. Btw I like your Penny Proud (The Proud Family) profile pic.
YES! TOTALLY!
@@pollardk.1116 thank you 😅
I was already tearing by the time she finished those Calor's. My god, it cranked up the emotional impact.
I think it’s because they changed where in the musical this song is so the screaming wasn’t required
One small detail I love in this song was in 1:41 where she voiced "but nueva york was far" sounded like a child crying to her mother and "but nueva york had work" sounded like a mother reprimanding her daughter.
SAME I do not have words for how much I love that, like you can tell just from her tone of voice that she’s recalling a past conversation.
The way they placed this song right after Blackout, hit me really hard. Like, in the musical, I get teary eyed in this song---but in the film, the way they changed that particular storyline up, just a minor change btw, it perfectly fits and I fucking bawled my eyes out til the end of the movie.
The change was genius!! It really centers Abuela as the emotional core of the film and gives her the attention she deserves. I can’t imagine it any other way now
YUP, it was mind blowing how they didn’t technically finish blackout with the line “en Washington heights” like on b’way that leads to intermission. I was like, oh damn okay we’re doing this now!
The “we are powerless” hit differently. I realized it wasn’t just about the electricity 😢
Me: "They brought Olga back, how different could it be?"
Also me, 3 seconds into this video: "Oh god, I'm not ready for this"
exactly my reaction I was NOT EXPECTING THIS MASTERPIECE
This is an oscar winning performance
I think she has a real chance. This scene is extraordinary.
This scene was pure art
Couldn’t agree more.
YESSSS. 100% agree
Went to see this in Westwood tonight and Olga Merediz's ending shot literally got a standing ovation in the theater.
I wasn't the only one crying right when Abuela Caludia sang this right?
nope! I’m not hispanic, but i lost my grandmother in 2019 and my grandfather this past January. I loved hearing their stories, and while their stories aren’t the same experience as Abuela’s, it still hit me like a ton of bricks. Cried so hard i was shaking for the rest of the movie
@@caitlynmiller8956
I know this may sound fake, but I'm so sorry..
Nope. I bawled through most of this scene, but that ending...god DAMN, I was gone. Choking on my tears and trying to drown them in soda.
Omg I was sobbing 😭
When I saw this in theaters I was balling I had to step out the theater for a minute
It hit so hard for me
I like they started the song with more of a build to it, rather than just leave it exactly the same. Especially since it’s the same actress from Broadway, I think it was important that they did something to make it different from the original version of the song, and I’m very impressed with how they did that.
I thought it was the same actress but I wasn't sure 😅
I love how they placed it before Claudia's death
@@jaheimw.b.2517 it is. She was the only one who got her character
It’s also more hazy and distant, as if it’s from the perspective of a dying woman and the entire song is her life flashing before her eyes, which works incredibly well for the updated context.
What's crazy is that the film editor said this part of the movie almost ended up on the cutting floor. It's my favorite song of the movie and I can't imagine it without it!
THANK GOD IT WASNT CUT OMG
OMG you'd be cutting practically the thesis statement of the whole show. Thank goodness they didn't.
This song was very2 important to the whole musical/movie. It clearly summarizes how they end up in America, and the untold history of why there's Latinas in US.
Holy shit how dare they even think about it lol, it wouldn't have been the same
The fact that this is based on Lin’s grandmother.
I was SOBBING in the theaters when this played. As a person who was raised in Hispanic heritage especially with my grandparents it hit home. It reminds me of my grandma! Both of my grandparents died last year during the serious outbreaks of the virus, and the line “I’ve been inheriting dreams from you!..” DESTROYED ME. My grandma was always so persevering even if she was sick. She wanted us to grow up with an actual childhood, unlike her. I helped her with English and she was clearly grateful. If I could only give them one last hug and one last talk that’s all I ask for. I regret never giving them one last hug. Please, if you still have grandparents pls go give them a huge hug after seeing this. Don’t make the same mistakes I did. I like to think they were taken out of their pain and finally had a chance to rest. :)
My grandpa was the same as well, but he was more of a goofball! I rlly do miss them, but I’m sure they’re finally drinking pina colada in their own paradise, or as u know, heaven!
My condolences for your lost. This song was something crazy great that worked for me in the thearters
On some point I'm glad I didn't get to watch this movie in the theater because I was sobbing and crying loudly most of the time.
I took my little sister to see this movie thinking it would be just a fun musical. This number right here actually killed me and I was very close to bawling. It wasn't the nice old lady dying that made me cry but her talking about her experiences growing up with her mother that made me fall in love with the character in a matter of minutes. Only to lose her shortly after. The actress did a phenomenal job and she deserves some awards and it didn't surprise me that she was the original Broadway actress as well.
This movie really makes me proud to call myself an Hispanic
Same!
Sometimes I wish I were hispanic
Same I literally could not stop crying, singing and dancing
me too!! cuban-puerto rican here!
I felt that same way when i saw the stage version in 2010
The fact that she sang this right before she died in the movie made it hit 100 times harder
Plz stop, yer gonna make me revisit that scene and bawl my eyes out at 6:48 AM-
Come on, you ruined this moment for those who haven’t seen it yet
@@arandompotato1662 i mean why would people be listening to the music before they see it
honestly its way worse and i think it makes the impact hit wayy less
@@mateokunzer listening to the musical and then Atención just starts playing definitely hits a little different
Someday, this song is going to be bittersweet to me...
My maternal grandmother was 16 when she flew to New York City by herself from San Juan, PR in 1948. She was alone and terrified, but to go to NYC was her dream since she was a poor farmer girl. She lied to get a job as a Seamstress, and thankfully instead of firing her, when her boss saw she didn't know how to use a sewing machine, he taught her how. She struggled and made her way, and one by one, she brought her impoverished family to the city to work, make their own, and live in a comfort they only once dreamed of. And it's because of her and her courage at 16, that my mother's family is here today.
I love her so much, and I know when I hear this song, I will always remember her. For now, I'm gonna be with her as much as I can until she has to go.
I love her, so happy she got to reprise her role like this!
Was she in the Broadway one?
@@kyleochotorena1653 Yep, u can also hear her in the Original Broadway Cast Recording
I'll be honest, no one could play Abuela better than Olga Merediz. She's the one and only Abuela Claudia, enough said!!
I haven't been hyped to see an OBC member reprise his or her role since Harvey Fierstein as Edna in Hairspray Live five years ago
@@kyleochotorena1653 yep
When she remembers the people “ you better clean this mess, you better learn ingles “ the racist treatments it’s like they’re not even human . All immigrants from the glorious Spanish countries are literally frowned and spit upon . The very fact she was covering her ears to that was heart breaking 😢😢😢😢😢😭
I honestly wouldn't define my country as 'glorious', but the point still stands. No one deserves mistreatment based on where they came from.
this is literally false. the vast majority of americans are perfectly kind to immigrants. there's nothing wrong with expecting immigrants to learn english. It's not racist. It is racist to say, never speak spanish, but it's not racist to say, you need to learn english well if you're going to live here.
get in reality, where racism is actually pretty rare
@@romegypt5675 it’s not JUST them wanting them to speak English . It’s the fact that they would be threatened if they don’t obey them . It would be like slaves not maids
@@romegypt5675 sweetie. no.
@@romegypt5675 bruh they dont need to learn English since we dont have a national language. smh
oh my god i was ready to scream CAAALOOOOORRR CAAAALOOOOOORRR CAAALOOOOR
BRO SAME
Ikr
I like not just how this starts softer, but really leans in to both her struggle and her endurance as it builds, and the end...wow. I'm wondering how they're going to pace this looking at the spoilers I'm seeing about what they moved around. Either way it has me in tears.
I just saw it; the movie has great direction, you'll like it.
This scene in the movie was amazing
THE CHILLS THAT RAN THRU MY BODY AT THE LAST LINE WHEN I WATCHED THE MOVIE😭😭😭😭😭
I was not prepared. I thought we had more songs.
@@cynthiaanderson6410 same!!!
Ohhhhh, the soft beginning…..sooooooo much more impact. This should be a Oscar Best Song nomination.
Note to self - Bring tissues to the Movie Theater. I’m gonna bawl during this…. i never got a chance to meet my family members when they got off the boat. Too many generations had passed, but this makes me think of every generation before me and I’m in tears
Sadly it can't be nominated in that category
@@samsancheztin Oh I know, but it still should. :(
This is why we need a "Best Adapted Song" category
@@FiddlerBoy83 LITERALLY
the part that really got me speechless was at 3:36 when abuela said "ay mama what do you do when your dreams come true, ive spent my life inheriting dreams from you" like damn the line didnt need to hit that hard. and the music just rubbed the line in even more. i dont personally know my relatives like abuela does so when i heard that, it felt like my third eye opened or something and i finally understood how others feel. like i usually dont... feel emotion like that... fucking bawled my eyes out. watching the movie a second time with tissues.
Let me tell you something: You are not ready for this. You may have listened to the OBC, watched the full show on UA-cam and listened to this track. You are not ready for how much you will feel from "Abuela, are you alright?" to Usnavi talking to Daniela. It's not just grief, it's everything. The movie is just relentless, hitting you with every emotion and then hitting you some more until you have cried every tear you have. Then you'll laugh until you choke at Carla.
YEAH
did anyone sob so hard they dry heaved and ran immediately to hug their grandma? 😭💔
and abuela moving her hands up to cover her ears in the movie... she really deserves to catch her break. :(
i cried but I didn't hug her because she is at her house. BUt damn I wasn't expecting myself to cry at the end
I haven’t cried in years and broke down from it. I lost my grandma and never felt like I was able to connect with her like I should have because of a language barrier and to think her story was similar to this just hit me very hard.
Yeah.
Your not the only one 😭🥺
I was balling at this scene. I have not seen the Broadway show and so I came into the movie blindly. I knew the first song but that's it. I have seen many comments about how this song made everyone cry and they were right. It was so beautiful and the colors at the end was amazing. When she holds the note at the end, I almost stood up clapping but other people were in the theater with me so I couldn't lol. If she doesnt get an award, I will be mad.
Same! I was this movie blind the other day this movie needs a grammy or an oscar at least!
@@MariaStar64 YES!!!!!!!!
This song truly had me balling it’s just so powerful
Olga Merediz hasn't lost a step in 12 years. This made me cry like a baby.
ITH OGs: I know it may sound different than what we’re used to right now, but without giving too much away. In context, this number is still every bit as heartbreaking perhaps even more so in the film.
Different context requires different performances. This is the exception. Be open to the changes!
💯
How can I get even more heartbroken??? Is it possible???
@@kirakira7682 I wouldn’t want to be spoiling the movie for everyone, it even came as a surprise for even the most avid ITH fans. All I can say is go in the movie with an open mind, it changes a lot of what we know, but fundamentally, it’s still brilliant. If I can give you a hint the song comes after Blackout. Strange decision I know, but man, it comes at you crash like a wave. The entire sequence is brilliant directed and edited
@@sebastiangonzalez2693 I agree, didn’t see that coming. And also placing breathe after Benny’s dispatch makes more sense
"I've spent my life inheriting dreams from you." My mom really resonated with this line. Her mom was a seamstress in Puerto Rico growing up and she wanted more for her daughters.
I just lost it at the line change at the end. UGLY CRYING RIGHT NOW
SAME
So i was already weeping through the entire song...the entire movie honestly. And then you hear the lyric change and realize whats happening and it UTTERLY BROKE ME.
@@lesterpadilla2220 when i saw the movie like 5 seconds before this song played i was having suspicions and i was trying to hold back tears but at the end i just cried...... I was too sad and i tried tk stay strong for the rest of the movie
I was already in tears, but that hit me hard. I was totally bawling.
SPOILER… the way they didn’t “fix” everything with the lottery win… it was like it was secondary to finding the solutions in finding that family was the answer.
As someone initially unaware of the original musical, this was certainly the best musical performance I've ever seen on the big screen. The choreography was perfect. Olga's performance was perfect. You cannot help but empathize with what Abuela Claudia experienced.
I cried for most of this movie.
Abuela Claudia’s story is the story of my family. My great grandparents did exactly what she did and for the same reasons. Leaving behind the city of Linares in Mexico. They are as far back as we can trace our family. They are the beginning of it all. The reason we can succeed today.
My father and I saw this together.
He might not have been crying, but I certainly was the entire time.
“Nueva York was far!
But Nueva York had work!”
Hits my heart every time.
For their entire life my great grandparents never learned english and had to make it through in this country anyway. Had it not been for their work, my grandfather and my father would’ve spent their entire lives as field workers, pickers. And much the same for me.
This is why immigrants do what they do.
I’m 3rd generation Mexican-American
And I will never forget where we came from.
I will never let that history die.
And I will fight anyone who says immigrants do not belong here.
I went into this movie totally blind and I bawled during this song. This is exactly the story of both my grandmas coming into the states. My dad's mother worked tirelessly as a "mousekeeper" at the Disney hotel, my mother's mom gave up her dream of becoming a teacher, cleaning dishes so my tias and tio could go to college. T-T I gotta text my fam and tell them I love them
When the people turned into 1940s Cubans I screamed internally 😩
SAME!!! my mom gasped!!
I jumped in my seat a bit started smacking my bf’s arm excitedly. I don’t get chills, but THAT gave me chills and the tears soon followed.
Olga did her part and she did it flawlessly!
She understood the assignment asf
I’m not of Hispanic or Spanish descent, but my great-grandparents were Irish-Scottish immigrants. I know it’s not the same, but I imagine their stories with this song, struggling in New York.
This song is so powerful.
[Lyrics]
Calor… calor… calor…
Calor… calor… calor…
Ay Mamá
The summer's hottest day
Paciencia y fe, paciencia y fe
It was hotter at home in La Víbora
The Washington Heights of Havana
A crowded city of faces the same as mine
Back as a child in La Víbora
I chased the birds in the plaza
Praying, Mamá, you would find work
Combing the stars in the sky for some sort of sign
Ay, Mamá, so many stars in Cuba
En Nueva York we can't see beyond our streetlights
To reach the roof you gotta bribe the supa
Ain't no Cassiopeia in Washington Heights
But ain't no food in La Víbora
I remember nights, anger in the streets, hunger at the windows
Women folding clothes, playing with my friends in the summеr rain
Mamá needs a job, Mamá says we're poor, one day you say,
"Vamos a Nuеva York..."
And Nueva York was far
But Nueva York had work and so we came
And now, I'm wide awake
A million years too late
I talk to you, imagining what you'd do
Remembering what we went through
Nueva York! Ay Mamá!
It wasn't like today, you'd say
"Paciencia y fe
Paciencia y fe
Paciencia y fe
Paciencia y--
Fresh off the boat in America
Freezing in early December
A crowded city in 1943!
Learning the ropes in America
En Español, I remember
Dancing with Mayor La Guardia
All of society welcoming mami and me!
Ha!
You better clean this mess!
Paciencia y fe…
You better learn inglés!
Paciencia y fe…
You better not be late!
You better pull your weight!
Are you better off than you were with the birds of La Víbora?
Sharing double beds, trying to catch a break, struggling with English
Listening to friends, finally got a job working as a maid
So we cleaned some homes, polishing with pride
Scrubbing the whole of the Upper East Side
The days into weeks, the weeks into years, and here I stayed
Paciencia y fe
Paciencia y fe
Paciencia y fe
And as I feed these birds
My hands begin to shake
And as I say these words
My heart's about to break
And ay, mamá
What do you do when
Your dreams come true?
I've spent my life
Inheriting dreams from you
I made it through
I survived, I did it
Now do I leave or stay?
My savior
Thanks
Alright, Mama, okay.
PACIENCIA Y FE
(¡CALOR!)
(¡CALOR!)
(¡¡¡¡¡CALOR!!!!!)
If Anne Hathaway can get an Oscar for Les mis, Olga is more than exemplary for the Oscar in this performance
This song is the heart of the movie.
I do wonder about the lyrical change at the end.
@@ChantoStarX Yeah I've seen the movie, but i'm still not sure about the path they took in there.
@@Thomazbr SPOILERS They were saving Claudia’s lottery win for a big reveal at the end, so in this version, her dreams coming true is just living in America in a community that loves and accepts her as she is. But she must now make the choice of staying with her loved ones or finally resting.
@@mrtophat2757 Imo you can also see the reveal about the lottery win recontexualising the end of the song
Not sure if you’ve seen the movie yet but it’s basically Abulitas life is flashing before her eyes. She picks either if she’ll live or die.
I cried when I watched that scene.
The character of Abuela Claudia remind to my Abuelita, a lot.
They are stubborn, nice and they look a lot physically.
This movie/musical is great, for Hispanic people is great and you can feel it
Please tell me I'm not the only one who cried in the theater 😭
😭😭😭😭 it was perfect
Your really not i bawled my eyes out 😭😭
I watched it and bawled my eyes out
I cried from the moment she laid down on the bed until the end of Alabanza. My Nana died this past fall, and she had so many details in common with Abuela Claudia. She was raised in Havana, and came to America leaving everything behind
No worries, dude, you're not alone
The re-placement of this in the movie makes so much narrative and emotional sense, I’m almost shocked that wasn’t its place in the stage musical to begin with.
As someone who's seen the stage version twice, i completely agree.
You have a lot more visual storytelling at your disposal with a movie, and you have a lot more time to fill in a stage musical and most of the storytelling is done through music, so both versions make sense. Remember, changing the context of this song eliminates another song later on and also changes a reveal that happens in the middle of the play.
I cried at this scene and Alabanza when I first saw it at the theatre, and I’m not ashamed to admit that. A family member I was close to who happened to be my grandma’s older sister passed away from cancer in September 2 years ago, I’m not such an emotional person, but lately with the musicals I’ve been watching, that was like onion-cutting ninjas behind me.
"And as I fed these birds
My hands begin to shake
And as I say these words
My heart's about to break"
Hearing these lines in the context of the movie already made me bawl harder than i already was
i'm grateful that i didn't listen to the motion picture soundtrack before i watched the movie. the emotions i felt with the way they switch this song for the movie was raw. there wasn't anyone NOT crying in the theater. it was a beautiful.her confusion, her loss, her delight, her joy, and her acceptance - it was the most human experience to watch this scene. olga merediz DESERVES the oscar after this performance. alabanza.
I lost my grandma 2 days ago and saw the movie yesterday ... yup 😭😭😭 almost had to leave the room
I love the changes they did to the song. I always have carajo it's hot and will always keep saying it lol
I lost my grandma about a month ago, and I also sobbed through this entire bit. Hit too close to home. Sending well wishes your way, loss is tough ❤️
I lost mine a year and a half ago and it still hit me like a train
When i lost my grandmother last year, i just kept playing "everything i know" as a form of cathartic release. Knowing that the song was cut i was wondering how they were gonna mimic the same emotional gut punch of the song. When i saw the movie back on mother's day, and this song played, it utterly destroyed me.
I'm so sorry for your loss. I couldn't even imagine the emotions you felt. :(
Omg I already know I'm gonna cry when this scene comes up ;^;
I already cried with just this so yeah I'm definitely gonna cry :')
as someone who's seen the movie, youre gonna cry ALOT
@@bruhh_art yeah, I can confirm that
I cried my eyes out 😔
@@bruhh_art YES
The "Calor, Calor, Calor, Calor" at the end is my favorite part of this song!
And
"So many stars in Cuba"!
This reminds me so much of my grandma. She came here by herself when she was 14 from Mexico. She had nothing and worked as a house cleaner until che couldn't work anymore. Here hands are crooked and coarse, but her hands are what got me and my family thought the hard times. I don't have a great relationship with her, but I still love her ❤️
The lyric “and now I’m wide awake, a million years too late!” Really resonates with me cause I’ve always been afraid of not accomplishing any of my dreams. God this scene makes me cry everytime
Please tell me she still says "ay carajo, it's hot!" outside of the song. I love that part.
She does not :( but the scene ends up being amazing
it wouldn’t be right to put it in with this context
Someone else says "ay carajo"
@@eledomingu Nop. At least I didn't hear it.
@@reillychoo9539 would def be right in this context
If I wasn't watching this movie in school, then I would have cried my eyes out at this scene.
No because this song slaps hard 🤤‼️
i was sobbing during this part of the movie.
my grandma died recently so the feeling of her having to pick what side of the train station she walked into and she chose heaven had me sobbing. my immigrant grandma was a hard worker and made her way to new york with the help of my dad. ugh this scene is just amazing.
I watched the movie before I listened to the Broadway album, and it took me a while to realize that the Broadway lyrics meant to convey early in the musical that she was too old to use the winning ticket, whilst in the movie, it was more subtle. I thought she was just happy to have a great family, but she actually realized her mother's dream and it's more heartbreaking.
I can't explain it, but I love the way she says "forty-three." There's just this old-school New Yorker energy behind it. Actually I like the way Olga talks in general, come to think of it.
Olga still got the pipes, like she ain’t ever left this! What? Emotional wreck material.
The lyric change in the end tho! Made me scream "THEN WHO WON THE LOTTO??" out loud in the theaters lmaooo
Tbh I'm not sure why she couldn't have handed it off to Usnavi directly before she passed. Wouldn't the ticket have been invalid after a month?
@@kimd7835 the fact that Usnavi found it A DAY before he was about to leave too lol
@@beaniiebrian the way he's about to go out the door to cash it in and stops to have an entire scene with vanessa, the way he was going to leave to fix up a destroyed bar in another country with no other money or connections... some of the story changes were great and some made no sense lol
@@kimd7835 tbh I didn't like how the 96k didn't play a bigger role in the movie. It was such a major plot device in the stage version!
My father asked me the same thing before this song started, very quickly.
I simply told him “You’ll see.”
And damn sure he did.
the thing that speaks the most to me is how they ended with "calor, calor, calor" so powerfully in the major key. Abuela Claudia had a hard life... but she made the most of what she didn't deserve or want
I love how they shot this in the movie. They made it bright, vibrant and beautiful. Just like her life.
I like that the ending of the song makes it seem like she has the choice whether to die in that moment or not and she openly acknowledges that she has achieved her dream and accepts it
The caliber of crying I did over this scene and the one immediately following it might be unprecedented; usually, if I cry at all, it's just a couple of tears falling and then I'm done. This one was a wobbly-lip endeavor. Very well done, as well.
Man, when I first watched this movie I was NOT expecting the sweet old lady to bust out this absolute masterpiece, those VOCALS holy fuck, Olga didn’t come to play with this one.
I have an abuela and this reminds me so much of her. She grew up in Cuba with her family but was forced to move because of the communist movement happening at the time. She escaped just barely and even when she made it to America people still treated her like crap and hardly gave out good jobs, not to mention she had to raise my mom by herself. I swear she is the strongest kindest woman I know. And I am so grateful for everything she's done for us.
My grandma came to Los Angeles from Guadalajara pregnant & with her 2 year old (my mom). She was poor. Los Angeles was far, but Los Angeles had work.
She helped raise me. Now she's in hospice & her health is declining. I got to see her a week ago. I helped change her diapers like she used to change mine. I put this song on as I helped clean her. Trying to withhold my tears, I told her "Gracias por la lucha."
Olga reprising he role is the emotional beat of this movie! Gives this woman an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress
The first time I heard this song, I was in tears. I moved from my beautiful country of Mexico to have a better life in America (I was 3 years old). I'm in college now thanks to the help of my parents (proud farm workers) and DACA. This song describes parts of my life so beautifully, I long for my home country more than words can describe
When she faded into the light I legit broke down and cried in the movie theater...she reminded me of my Gma 😢
Im Latina myself and this part kills me everytime with a mom who is a maid , I was sobbing in the theaters
4:16 this note brought tears to my eyes I'm a wimp when both the notes and music match in intensity,volume, and emotion it always makes me tear up
This had me bawling because of my movie night with my parents yesterday. I soaked my arm that i was laying on. Abuela Claudia is by far my favorite character and GOD this movie HURT ME IN A GOOD WAY.
This is the best song and scene in the movie which surprised me because it wasn’t my favorite in the original Broadway version. Such power and it was a nice reminder of what my elders that came before me went through to establish themselves as Latinos in America. I’ll never know fully the sacrifices made but it is so appreciated and now we, as part of their legacy, have a chance to thrive on our own in this great country. So grateful and I love this song for the reminder.
This scene made me break down instantly. The lyrics are personal to my family's experience and she reminds me of my own grandma:(((. I will never not cry.
I've never had to pause a movie to take a 5 minute recess to get my emotions in check before.
"Aint no casseapia in washington heights, but aint no food in la vibora"
As an immigrant, this line hit hard
this scene was so incredible. from choreography to lighting to the absolute TALENT of the woman who plays abuela, it was everything and more
update, so watched the movie all the way through, and yes, I cried here.
I cried watching this movie. Specially when she started to sing this song and Alabanza after this. Damn. I've never cried so much in a movie before. I don't know... is a different crying. Proud to be a brazilian and a Latino!
this song broke me. it reminds me of my own Abuela, leaving mexico and her kids (my aunt,uncle, and my dad) to go to texas to go find a better life.
This is sad, despite being the Matriarch in the Barrio, she is still a child somewhere in her heart, that longs for her Mom, asking for guidance, if she must rest or leave the people she love. This is heartbreaking that I cried my eyes out.
That line change at the end hit me in the heart.
I'm half Filipino, I was born in the US. I've ALWAYS felt strange, whitewashed, like I don't really belong anywhere since my mom didn't teach me Tagalog and my dad is from Wisconsin so he couldn't have. We went on a trip to the Philippines a while ago and my family wondered why and was disappointed when they found out I couldn't speak their language--and maybe this comment would make more sense under one of Nina's songs, since that was kind of how she was feeling. But Paciencia y Fe is what made me go out and buy a Philippine flag for my bedroom, and it gave me newfound motivation to truly connect with my roots.
The Broadway 🎭 version she was so great. I’m glad they kept her role in the film as well. She is the only abuela Claudia
Most underrated song from the musical
The "weeks into years" part hits me like a freight train. A song full of truth.
When I saw this in theaters I was bawling.
Recuerdo que cuando vi por primera vez la peli, empecé a llorar como un minuto antes que empiece la cancion porque ya sabia por donde venia la cosa, encima Olga es una abuela Claudia tan tierna y que te dan ganas de apapacharla.Siento que nunca llore tanto en mi vida con una escena, te parte el alma y a su vez la puesta tan hermosa que hicieron desde lo visual, que te conmueve aun mas.
Segunda vez q veo la peli y me causa exactamente lo mismo.
Si no la vieron preparense unos pañuelitos al lado, bastantes diria yo.
Es hermosa esa secuencia. La verdad que se me cae en pedazos el corazón :(
Imagina que yo no podía dejar de llorar hasta en la escena de Carnaval del Barrio, estaba devastada y el final me dejó peor, parecía un bebé de lo tanto que lloré.
@@ninnissafeplace ya la voy viendo como 3 veces! Y nunca falla en hacerme llorar jajaja
This song really makes me think of my grandmother who came to miami from cuba with her disabled husband and three sons, all alone with no family and no money in this new foreign country. All she had were the clothes on her back and her drive to create a better future for her kids. i am proud to call myself cubana, not because of the country our family came from, but because of her. thank you abuela alba.
STOP I'M IN LITERAL TEARS AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ABUELA!!!!! ;-;
“And Nueva York was far, but Nueva York had work and so we came.”
That line had my eyes in tears because that’s what happened with my family. 😢 just not NYC.
Very reimagined scene from the stage version. It was refreshing and still a powerhouse moment.
More like an emotional powerhouse
I went into this movie blind, and I’m still crying. This movie made me remember my grandma. She died last year in august. And this made me cry. A lot. Like a lot a lot. She was always so nice, even when i wasn’t. If you still have grandparents, please give them a hug. Don’t take them for granted like i did. Cherish them
