The actress playing Abuela Claudia is reprising her role. She originated the role on Broadway. Her singing is incredible.
Good to know and her singing really is.
Her song is actually one of my favs. My experience as an immigrant was not quite as trying as her character's, but boy did it hit pretty dang close to home for me.
It was really lowkey racist when Claudia was dancing with black dancers dressed as slaves knowing that white cubans that left to the USA were slaveowners, meaning her mother was one
I was really surprised that she was really singing it herself.
omg SHE WAS BEAUTIFUL
"The ensemble is huge"
Wait until you see the pool/96k scene and tell me what you think of it LMAO.
Ahahahahhaha exactly what I was thinking
Literallyyyyy
That part is THE PART of the movie and musical
Yo jimmy ever pulled off that trick?
I was thinking the sameee thingg
Also! Can we talk about how in the ensemble he isn’t centered. As if to emphasize that they’re telling all of their stories, not just his
Yess
I also thought it was interesting that the story doesn’t have an antagonist (bad guy)
@@femke3868 i think the antagonist might be his want to get out, bc by the end he realizes where he’s supposed to be
@@emilygrove884 that is true but an antagonist is traditionally a person or thing, not a concept
I just thought it was interesting that the story works so well without a specific person or thing working against the characters
@@femke3868 unless you count that evil sun 🙄
@@TeddyTrashvt gahahahhahahaha trye
Fun fact, Anthony Ramos’s sister and mother were actually dancing with him for the huge dance for the beginning song, and the ending song…..the camera actually pans directly to them.
And lin Manuels parents and wife were in breathe I believe
And Lin’s wife was in the crowd in the finale
time? i can’t find them
His mother was also who said 'no me diga' in 96,000 and was also sitting on the bench towards the end of when you're home.
Wow that’s so cool!!
Don’t feel stupid my mom asked if Washington heights was a real place, she’s lived in New York for like 30 years.
BAHAHAHAHA
may we have an oof in the chat
@@SaraSong-mw3zm oof
Oof
Omg before this comment had 2 likes (I liked it) now it almost 700!
basically the idea of the show is that he's telling a story about his time in washington heights to the kids. (the ones on the beach)
Just in the movie, though. That’s not in the original show
On the beach. ;)
@@aggie5668 """"on the beach"""
His kids more specifically
not technically, if you watch until the end it turns out something else
I am so happy that Anthony Ramos is finally getting the recognition he deserves. His voice is incredible and HIS SOLO MUSIC. AHHHHH.
Mind over matter is a bop
FRL THOUGH
Relationship is SO GOOD
Favorite thing is, though he's telling his story, he's telling multiple peoples stories from Washington heights. He is just the narrator, the story isn't mainly about him. So he's part of the ensemble, the narrator, the focus of some scenes, and so much more. Each person has their own story going on and that's why the music will change and why some of the things seem so inconsistent and unimportant.
Just FYI, "In The Heights" is not a sung-through musical. Also, the first 8-mins video does not show the actual first minutes. There is a short clip explaining that he is telling his story to a group of children in the future.
Yeah and this is just the first song which introduces all the characters and what their songs are going to sound like, which I love
Lin’s writing is chef’s kiss
yeah. ‘in the heights’ is one whole song
In the movie, when Nina's dad is on hold with Stanford, the hold tone is "you'll be back" from Hamilton as a little easter egg. And yes please react to the whole movie
Yesss that was my favourite
I saw that too lol
I was about to scream when I heard that! It's just FABULOUS!
I love that Lin does little musical queues like that one. Very Rodgers and Hammerstein of him lol
Yeah I noticed that when I saw it
one of my favorite things that the movie adaptation does it adding the huge ensemble in the background. it makes the barrio feel more fleshed out and like a real neighborhood, as opposed to the stage musical which has a limited number of cast members. love that they took full advantage of the movie format.
I completely understand where you are coming from but that is the reason that I have not actually watched the full movie yet. I personally feel that they went too big with the ensemble and that just distracts me more from the content of the song. Especially in this song and 96,000 where it seems more like a few friends just chatting. But that is just my seemingly unpopular opinion I thought I would share.
I feel like the majority of this video is just her going "why are these ordinary people singing about ordinary things" LMAO
I mean, the musical is about just regular people and what goes on in their daily lives. Normal problems, their jobs, relationships, etc. What exactly were they supposed to be singing about LOL and no its not like Hamilton, the film does have a lot of regular dialogue
YES.
Exactly.
😂😂😂
Let us just enjoy a story about people of color that doesn't have to center drugs and violence. Just every day hustle and grind. Damn!
This
The things is, the beat is a mix of latin genres, its moving because as a Latina growning up in western countries I never got to hear this. Some of the lyrics are in Spanish so you get exited to hear it. Cafe con leche is coffee with milk a staple of Latin America. Abuela talking about patience and faith is something most of us grew up hearing. It's moving because in the first 8 minuets you see the latin community being represented in a different light than before. The hard working, dependent full of life latino. Not the drug addict or thug. This movie represent family, support and love. Being proud of where we came from. I hope that gives you a bit more understanding as to why this movie /musical is so important :)
Couldn’t have said it better myself. As a Latina, this movie makes me feel something I can hardly describe and it means so much to me
Exactly! As a Latina, I cried when I saw it because it’s so rare to see our stories represented positively in media! It’s such a beautiful musical and it’s way more personal than Hamilton. This musical is so insanely important for showing the immigrant story
exactly and the part where he’s singing about the things he sells he’s holding a bunch of vapor rub which made me laugh so hard lol
"Growing up in western countries"
Ummmm, all Latin American countries are western countries.....
This comment warmed my heart
And I couldn’t agree more
I would love to see a reaction to the whole movie. The whole “talking to the camera” thing doesn’t happen anymore after this first number. Almost all of the songs have some sort of fantastical aspect to them. It’s a movie about a lot of things but one of the more prevalent themes is dreaming/being a dreamer, and I think they really tried to portray that in a lot of the songs with the way they’re filmed in a way that they couldn’t really do on stage. It’s a beautiful movie, visually and musically.
Yessss
In the musical (I haven’t seen it bc I was two years old but from what I’ve heard) Lin does talk to the audience a lot, but the way they’ve incorporated these things is Anthony telling it to the kids
I vote for a full movie reacttttt, so rare that vocal teachers react truly blindly like you do, which makes your content so captivatinggggg
If you loved the ending of these first 8 minutes, you’ll love 96,000. Tons of people dancing and singing together in a pool, doing flips, etc. super super cool
96000 is a work of passionate art. I hope the choreographer gets recognition for that accomplishment
The scene change would make more sense if you watch the whole movie but it’s kind of hard to tell you what happens without spoiling it.
I mean is it?
Because you can just say he’s telling the story of life in the heights to kids on the beach and that’s why it cuts to them.
I don’t think I’ve spoiled a lot
to answer your question hannah: they DO talk in the movie! and they also talk on stage! (in other words, there is a script) it’s not just singing all the way through like hamilton is :)
There was actually a scene before that song where he was explaining about Washington Heights to the children and how it almost disappeared. He was telling the story to them which then entered the scene to the first song. So no it did not just go to a random scene of children on the beach. 😂
Visually this is STUNNING. Story wise, the stage show was better. Musically, the stage show was better, I truly miss the missing songs.
The missing songs were so important. I felt like they made it a love story more than focusing on the stories of each person
Right! The missing songs and even the way they rearranged some of the order was just a no for me. The movie was good but compared to the show just not quite.
Personally I liked the movie more, I watched the musical right before the movie and I had such a hard time concentrating
Probably seeing it personally on Broadway would be better but, with my short attention span, I prefer the movie so far 😅
idk how to explain but they sing about irrevelant things like what he sells, her security deposity and his coffee order because a big part of the musical is the feeling of mundane and comunity with no big WOAHS and that this in it self should be a big woah
Yeah to them these things aren’t irrelevant, they’re extremely relevant.
They are very much relevant, everything that he is mentioning, every word in every rap song is exactly what Latin people live on their daily lives... so yeah, it’s very much relevant
It's life things, to them that's their world.
“Okay Abuela” is right!! The cool part is that the actress who played Abuela on stage for the OBC is the same! There’s a lot of cool little tid bits and Easter eggs in this movie and I love it so much.
My favourite Easter egg was when the hold music when Kevin was on the phone was ‘You’ll Be Back’ from Hamilton
I almost screamed in the movie theatre hahahaha
@@femke3868 I watched the movie on HBO Max and when that happened I said, “Ayy!” I loved that they did that.
@@Wickedfan219 i was in a movie theatre and sang along. it was not my best thinking but it was funny hahaha
When you watch the full movie, you'll understand everything more and things will come together. They've taken bits out and put bits in the youtube first 8 minutes, so it's a lil off. I'm watched the musical in cinema and it was awesome, I'm a huge in the heights fan.
In the heights is a literal masterpiece, please do a full react to it.
Would HAPPILY watch a reaction to the full movie, I totally understand not being sold on the mix of sing talking/actual talking in the middle of the songs at first, but I think watching everything in context will really help sell you on it!
You're really on fire lately!! I've watched In The Heights so many times! LOVE IT!!!! 😀
Such a good movie! Everyone I know who's seen the movie loved it
If you liked abuela Claudia's little belt in the "paciencia y fe" phrase, you should definetly react to her solo part for "Paciencia y Fe" (the song), it is lit 🌟
I was really happy for Anthony Ramos when I heard he was gonna be the lead for this a long time ago ! Him and Jasmine are so beautiful and skilled haha 😆
They got to star from Hamilton and I wanna see them work in bigger things if they get the chance
You should react to Anthony Ramos he’s the lead in this movie!
Yesss she should
He just put out a new album!!
YESSS
omg she should react to “Relationship” 🥰
He's amazingly talented and quite the cutie. :D
First 8 minutes of singing. Not of the entire movie. There are some amazing cameos in this from the original cast (also from Hamilton).
Also from Rent, also from Hadestown (Patrick Page).
It’s literally how the show opens- the first 8 mins
@@mnkybl8 if you are talking the broadway show, they yes, I'd say that is similar-ish. That's why I said the music. The movie deviates. Starts on the beach talking about the little dream. That clip doesn't start until 3 and half minutes in to the movie adaptation.
@@robertjames5778 I didn't know Daphne Rubin-Vega was cast for In the Heights. Imagine my surprise when Daniella started singing and I was like all "Mimi?"
@@SgtSplatter782 yeah man as someone who didn't see the OBC of Rent, imagine my shock when I started a deep dive on the different singers. Man, she's good then, she's still good now.
I would adore a reaction to the whole thing. This movie literally brought me to tears at one point.
⚠️SPOILER ALERT!⚠️
Omg yes! I watched it for the first time a couple days ago and I was full out SOBBING when Abuela Claudia died and when he found the lottery ticket that she left him! 😭 and when Nina admitted that she got searched and when Sonny realized he can’t do some stuff because he doesn’t have papers
I absolutely LOVE the dance sequence at the end of the opening number. I had chills when I watched it in theaters and I couldn’t stop smiling 😊😊😊 my sister and I actually had the theaters to ourselves and I totally stood up and clapped after the number haha it was that good!
This movie isn't available in my country so those 8 minutes were the closest I could come to watching it, I think I'm responsible for at least half the views on it
it’s definitely more fun to see it in theaters cause it’s amazing but if you wanna watch it it’s free on soap2day.to when you click on the movie to play it’ll open a new tab the first three times and then the fourth it’ll play just delete the tabs :)
you can see it in Stremio as well!!
girl...get a vpn like Nord or Surf Shark. You can change your location and can watch it that way. This way is not illegal! :)
Whoa thanks for all your tips! I'm kinda hesitant about watching it for free on some website though, I don't wanna watch it without giving the creators something back for their amazing work
@@kage3069 the VPN just changes your location so you can access that region on your device. You would just download the HBO Max app, subscribe, and watch it normally. Surprisingly, VPNs are pretty cheap. I live in the US and love to watch British shows on Netflix. It is awesome!
And Christopher Jackson's the original benny, and now all I see is our first president when I see him.
That clip at the beginning with the children is showing you that the story the movie is telling is being told by the main character to that group of children. When they laugh at him for standing in chewing gum he stops his story. This is probably why he often looks directly at the camera, as a little reminder that he is telling YOU the story too.
Ok just saying they said that besides the regular cast, they said they had like 500+ extras and they all can dance and most of them live in Washington heights and they did film this in Washington heights 👍
you should react to “breathe” ! (both mandy gonzalez and leslie grace’s version!!!)
Mandy Gonzalez will always be my Nina, but Leslie Grace did an amazing job with her version.
basically the first 8 minutes is the opening number for the movie/ show. The scene change to the beach is him telling the story to the kids on the beach. Its kind of hard to explain it without spoiling the entire movie. Its such a great movie!!
I mean, you just explained it without spoiling anything, so not that hard.
I know its been a while, but I would love a full in the heights reaction 😁😁
I want to see a full reaction to the whole movie, or at least 96,000 and Paciencia y Fey. I had the same exact reaction to the end of the song, a lot of tears on my end though. The shot with the ensemble dancing in the reflection of the window. Stunning shot. I was pleasantly surprised when I learned that one of the main crew members in the Step Up movies and choreographer was one of the choreographers for this. They're doing so much more on scene than you could ever see on stage. The ensemble is fractured a lot more in the movie. As someone who is always an ensemble member I appreciate that so much.
One: when I tell you I clicked so fast..
Two: Lin makes it a point to be in everything he makes and to be a vital and influential figure in each movie or film like marry poppins, moana, and yes Hamilton.
He actually didn't want to be in the movie but they begged him to play the Piragua guy and Lin said yes xD
This wasn't his idea. They convinced him to do it.
Oh sorry guys didn’t know that
Yeah he def doesn’t try to be in everything. He was asked to play this part or they were going to get rid of the part all together lol
Good to know! Thx everyone! Have a great day! 😋😁
Abuela is played by Olga Merediz. She played the role throughout the show's Broadway run, and received a Tony nomination for it.
Is it just me or is Lin giving me Stan Lee vibe, in the sense that hes in most of the projects that he makes
Little fun fact abt this movie: a lot of the background people actually live/work in Washington heights the guy you see mopping actually works in that building I think they wanted to keep it true to the area bc Lin loves his home town so much :) also that window shot YES BEAUTIFUL AMAZING I saw it and started crying for no reason it was so beautiful
Hannah’s out here makin my life better every day
(P.S. Abuela Claudia is played by Olga Merediz, who also played Abuela in the original production!)
You should react to “Paciencia Y Fe” (the abuelas song). It’s so good!
YES! But the version from the musical!
@@lau_29 yeah cause the movie is kinda spoilery
@@lau_29 I love both, so it wouldn’t matter to me!
YES
YES!
that camerawork is called a Matchcut
"In film, a match cut is a cut from one shot to another where the composition of the two shots are matched by the action or subject and subject matter"
every time i listen to a song or watch a music your voice is stuck in my head saying “OOOOOH NICE BELT” or “CHEST VOICE!!!” because i swear to god Hannah you have taught me more than choirs class and i love it.
it’s not like hamilton where they sing everything. there’s definitely a lot of singing but there is regular speaking as well
this isn't exactly the first 8 minutes of the movie, it's just really the opening song.
Love In The Heights!! Watched it being preformed a couple years back in a theater and loved it!!
I'm so glad you reacted to this! Their performance is amazing!
I love how much more confident and relaxed Hannah has become on UA-cam 💖
Pleaaassseeee react to Vanessa’s “It Won’t Be Long Now”. Or whole movie. 🌴🙌
The scene change is because Usnavi is telling his children about his story, that's why he is narrating!
YES!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do a full review. This is my favorite movie of ALL time and I LOVE seeing other people’s reaction to it.
The beach scenes are in the future and he's telling a story of Washington Heights to those kids.
Or technically the beach scenes is the present and him telling his story is just the past lol
Its so interesting to hear little sounds that carry over to Hamilton like (I serve Café- éy- é- éyyyy) and (Angelicas arriving today- ay-a- ayyyyy) in Take a Break
Man I really hope she reacts to the whole thing, it’s so amazing and I know and she and I watching it will cry
Aw, I love that Hannah raved about my 2 favorite parts of this clip- the reflected ensemble in the window and that final HUGE dance. 🥰 Both scenes gave me so many chills!! 😁
My friends and I went to see it in theaters and now I feel kind of bad for the three other people that were in the theater with us because WE WERE GIVING A PERFORMANCE
AS YOU SHOULD
I mean... It's just proper, especially if you're a fan of the original musical.
Also, balling my eyes up at certain songs. Breathe and Alabanza were tear jerkers for me.
Me too! It was only me and my friend in the theater, and my friend let me sing and dance to the songs :)))
@@markus242007 OMG when she chokes up upon saying "Gee, Nina. What will you be?" I lost it. And Alabanza.....that song kills me every single time.
VAMOS SI!!!! GIVE THAT PERFORMANCE!!!! I would have joined you haha
I haven't pressed play yet but PLEASE REACT TO THE WHOLE MOVIE
YES please do a full reaction!!!
As a Puerto Rican myself this movie made me so proud! You should really watch it
This actually isn't the first 8 minutes. There's a small piece from the beginning, setting up the story, left out. I think this is like the first 8 minutes from the beginning of the first song
HANNAH IM CRYING AT THE PART WHERE YOU WERE BORDERLINE TEARY EYED AND LIKE AM I DUMB AHAHHAHAHA UR SO FUNNY I CAN'T
I know I’m really late but, the beach scene is future Usnavi. He is telling the kids his life. And as for Vanessa singing No and about security deposits, in the movie it’s her dream to move out of her apartment. Also they do speak. Hope this helped a little
Also EVERY DAY PACIENCIA Y FE
Yes I need a full reaction!!!
I love musicals in general, but this one in particular was so fun to watch with my family that isn’t as into Broadway as me. My dad spent a lot of the beginning pointing out the cast and who looked like members of our family and it was hilarious.
The musical version is a pop opera with little dialogue. The movie is actually more of a mixture of music and dialogue. I did this music in 2018 which was my senior year of high school. I’m in love with this and Hamilton!
please yes, do a full reaction, that sounds amazing
I just have to say, you have quickly become my favorite vocal coach reaction videos. You are so funny in this video and sweet in all the videos I’ve seen so far. I love your videos!
I watched this movie in theaters twice and it was absolutely AMAZING. I've love to see reactions/critiques of "Blackout", "Carnival de Barrio", and "96,000", a few of my favorites from the movie/show!
I love Abuela Claudia's voice and her song Pacencia y fe it gives me chills every time I her it.
Yeees please do a full reaction 😍
Hannah I love you, and amazing video as always. ALSO I love In The Heights. That was the musical we did in my school when I was in grade 10 (I played Camila), and was really the musical that introduced me to musical theatre. Of course you should react to the whole thing!!!
Soon as Benny sang “you ain’t got no skills” I was in love 😂😂😂 I was sitting in the cinema tracking this dude like. 😍😍
OH MY GOD I REMEMBER WATCHING THIS WITH FRIENDS OF MINE, THE BROWSER KEPT LAGGING EVERY MINUTE HAHAHAH
I freaking love this movie! I haven't watched the stage version yet, so it was my first experience with this story, and it affected me so much. I laughed, had fun, saw some really good criticisms on Trump and the situation of latinas in USA, and also was moved by these characyers' stories, specially Nina's. I've seena critic that pointed out that Nina and Benny's story isn't really well developed and I have to agree with that. Yet, the movie shows enough for us to care about them. Honestly, I think this is my favorite movie musicals now.
“am i ??? stupid??” PLEASE ILY
BUt Vanessa talking her security deposit is my favorite part, and that quick mention of it is important to her story plot in the movie
The abuela in the movie is the original abuela on broadway… and Anthony Ramos who plays usnavi was the original cast on Hamilton… The storyline is about dreams and community… Also diversity
THEY ARE ALL SOOOOO GOOD
Yes. Do full version!!!!
I felt the moment he stepped in gum was the kids adding to the story. He starts out telling his story and singing. Kids interrupt, “and then you stepped in gym...” So you have that moment of interruption because of the kids adding something he didn’t expect.
Would love a full reaction, I love the musical and I thought the movie was incredible, especially the Paciencia Y Fe song scene, so please watch that, I think you’ll like it as its sang by Abuela Claudia played by the original broadway performer, Olga Merediz.
THAT PART IS SO GOOD BUT SO SAD
Oh my gosh Hannah you have to do the whole movie!
I loved your reaction and you’re not dumb at all. Also, I was super lukewarm about the Broadway recording when I first listened to it years ago, but mainly cause it was hard for me to keep up with everyone’s stories without the script. The movie made me love it so much.
you should react to “carnaval del barrio” from this movie! it is one of my favorites in the movie.
YAAASS!!
When Vanessa said "No", I felt that.
Edit: Awwwww, she didn't like it.
I loved Vanessa's part in the opening number.
It's ok. Hannah just didn't know what was going on. There's not a lot of context in this video about how the storytelling in this movie works. When I first heard Vanessa's part in the opening when I saw the live musical show about 10 years ago I was also like.....what is she talking about??
Anthony Ramos is an absolute DREAM! Cute, charming, great voice and he can dance! Damn.
saw the film yesterday and was blown away.. new favourite film
I've seen you do a bunch of reactions to musical episodes. Why have you not yet done "Once More with Feeling" from Buffy the Vampire Slayer? Yes, it's been done a lot but I would really like to see your reaction.
Yes, please!!! Awesome suggestion. My favorite musical episode ever.
Yes! Please! It's the best musical episode ever.
I get the impression that Hannah is totally the type to be a Buffy fan. Just a hunch, but I'm willing to bet that she's already seen the musical episode.
@@rjenyawd I wouldn't be surprised. But, maybe it's been years since she's seen it.
also, "I sang breathe, should I have done that? As a white, red-headed lady, no." LOLLLL
FULL REACTION!!
There are many Hamilton easter eggs throughout this movie....also, I totally get it if you don't really get into it. I think this show speaks mostly to the Hispanic community. There might be certain cultural things that many non-hispanics wouldn't quite get...kind of like Coco.
Please do the rest of this movie!
I was thinking about this! Some of my American watched this movie and they all didn’t get really into it. They liked the movie but didn’t get into it as much as I did. As a Hispanic this movie is really special to me now and I understand what a lot of them are going through.
omg why do i feel like this is a weekly class that i have to be at on time
"I need you guys to tell me in the comments that I'm dumb"
Sorry, I try my best not to lie to people, so I can't ;_;
Let me confess I fell in love with this trailer twice. The first time was during my own acquaintance, and the second time was watching your reaction. I have several friends-musicians and I loooove watching their reactions to my favorite theatre pieces. I would really appreciate it if you’ll film your reaction to the whole ‘In the Heights’
i wanna see you react to the whole movie soooooo bad!! there are so many impressive parts and the energy is amazing.
