I can’t afford a therapist and I don’t take medication for anxiety/depression. Not a lot of people do. The only thing that does help is this film. It says the things we all wish we could say if we can’t.
Every line of this song is like a hammer blow. "I've learned to slam on the breaks, before I've even turned the key". From that line on, I just knew it was going to be an intense movie.
I’ve listened to this song over a billion times over 3 years. Hits home so so so much. Especially being a theater kid who loves musicals I can just express my feelings well when I listen or sing this song. Truly beautiful. ❤❤
I can relate Evan. Not to the depression and anxiety but to the not fiting in and having no friends. I’ve dealt with both of those 2 things since the first grade and it sucks. Im a senior in high school now and still having those problems. Hopefully college will be better for both of us
Loneliness is one of the greatest pains a person can feel. Eventually you will find some people to connect with, but until then don't be afraid to live your life in spite of it. When I was in the same situation you are it felt like my whole world came to a halt because I didn't feel like I had anyone to share it with. But that wasn't really true. We're always growing, learning, and making new experiences regardless of who is around. Make sure your experiences are good ones, make sure that you learn from your mistakes, and make sure that you never stop growing to the best version of yourself. We're all cheering you on! Good luck, and best wishes.
I relate to you so much. Im a senior too and I don't have any friends because my anxiety makes it hard to talk to people. I hope it gets better for the both of us
@@DokiDokiDokuthis is so right :) im navigating my first year of two at an all boys school and i feel out of it, and kinda excluded going into this winter, but im hoping it'll get better sometime. thank you for this :)
It will. I felt simlar ways my whole life before college... But in college, I would say I either learn to getting more comfortable about "not fitting in" or found a few true friends, or both actually!!
Ben Platt saved my life forever from me considering suicide. He inspires me to become the first openly autistic person in the history of the world to win a Emmy Grammy Oscar and Tony in March 2023 in Beverly Hills Los Angeles California. I am turning 28 years old this May 15th 2022 in Jerusalem Israel. I use artificial intelligence and computer machine learning technology to daily save lives from car collisions at Mobileye Intel in Jerusalem
Seen the movie a couple of times now and it’s become an all time favourite of mine. I don’t care how old Ben Platt is - he is the BEST thing about this movie. He is sublime. His acting and singing is truly outstanding. Also, I could listen to this album on repeat for the rest of my life.
Ben Platt makes Tommy Wiseau sound like God himself. Of course, I also took issue with this movie’s portrayal of mental illness and how as someone who has depression it felt like I was watching a god damn minstrel show, but Ben Platt’s godawful acting and the blatant nepotism with his casting were also pretty glaring issues.
This is what it feels being different. I have autism and social anxiety. And sometimes it feels like no one sees you, understands o cares. So sometimes all I can do is watch others and hope things get better soon.
I'm also Autistic to and when I was little I was shy especially when it comes to meeting new people but now that I'm older I still get shy but not as much as back then I also do get anxious and when that happens i have multiple ways to calm down one of them is to listen to music on UA-cam, take a warm bath with some Epsom salt from Dr. Teals and I also like to go walking around my neighborhood park, I started listening to this song from my younger sister Emily who is a fan of this musical and it's really catchy I love the message behind it and Ben Platt does a awesome job as Evan.
@@879SCSP That's true for most musicals and films, but this storyline is supposed to be realistic. That's what makes it so powerful, because it doesn't show us what we want to see, it shows us what the world is like. And it motivates us to action. This plot is very persuasive in theme, and in that way it has to be realistic
This song explains social anxiety so well. That longing to belong, but being too afraid to make that first move out of fear of rejection. Sort-of just sitting on the sidelines, watching from afar. I want to be able to have a bunch of friends, and participate in class activities, but I just can't. It's hard to explain, and even harder to experience. but this song summarized it pretty well. Definitely going on my playlist.
@@borninthewrongtime6449 Thank you, I appreciate that. As of right now I'm much better with my social anxiety than I was at the time of making that comment, and have started being able to make new friends again. It's not completely gone, but it's a step forward.
I think there’re many people have Evan Hansen in their mind that’s why this show and songs are getting us right in the heart. Feel like I was saved from the bottom of loneliness after watching this movie
"We start with stars in our eyes, We start believing that we belong, But every sun doesn't rise, And no one tells you where you went wrong." This lyric hits me every time, this is how i feel every time i have difficulty in life, work, family. Nobody tells you what to fix and you NEVER GET BETTER!!!!!! WHY?
i saw this on september 29th despite having agoraphobia. i was shaking and teary eyed from being so overwhelmed being in public but i calmed down as the movie started. and then i started crying again as the sad parts came on LOL. i don't care what anyone says, i loved the musical and i LOVE the movie. it's one of my favorites now. i relate to evan so much and this story has helped me. i never really had any friends in middle or high school. i was bullied so much i started having stomach problems and got so nauseous before school. id sit in the car sobbing, begging my mom not to leave me in the drop off line. i started getting sick. i transferred to a charter school. got picked on.... on the first day. i had my head down during the last period crying because i thought it would be different. i thought it would be different. i eventually did online school. and i dropped out because i got too sick to keep up. ive been really sick with an autoimmune disease and depression and severe anxiety. ive been seeing doctor after doctor after doctor. for years ive felt alone and like i didn't matter to anyone. feeling invisible and alone. i still feel all of this. but this story gives me hope that it'll get better and that I'll be at peace with everything that has happened. this movie made my mom cry literally the whole time and even my dad cried! and ive only seen him cry like twice my whole 19 years of life! that's how you know your movie is good and touching hearts of even the unexpected. ben actually did look pretty young in a LOT of scenes. i loved how they gave alana a song and i honestly love the ending more than the musical's. ( the "all i see is sky for forever" line still makes me cry don't get me wrong LOL ) but it made me so emotional to see and hear connor sing like that. although im sad they cut out some songs and moments i liked, i still adore this movie so much. thank you and God bless
Also really liked the movie despite some criticism and hope to see a performance of the musical one day. Sorry to read about what happened to you. Good health to you mate.
Such a great song. Some thoughts about the movie: * I don't care about Bens age, makeup/lighting could have been done better sometimes, but I think he is the best Evan and he doesn't look that old to me. Ben is part of Evan and Evan is part of Ben, you can feel this character has his heart. * Some say Evan is a bad person and that they can't sympathize with him. But DEH isn't a story about a hero, it's about a young guy who struggles with severe anxiety, depression and loneliness. And he feels the pressure to do something good for a grieving family. The choices he makes are a result of all these things. * I'm sorry to hear they cut out some incredible songs (and Heidi/Connor parts) Why change a winning team? Especially Good for you is crucial for the story. * The most important thing for me: It's so special to see how this musical has made a difference in so many lives. Don't forget there are a lot of youngsters who can sympathize with Evan VERY well. That's sad enough. * I love the DEH/BP rabbit hole :-)
i agree with you, dude. plus. i also think that Ben Platt was Perfect. too bad that the important songs were cut but at least we got a movie, that's all that matters ps. i don't about his age either.
Ikr......I fucking loved the movie.I totally understood why even did what he did.Yes what he did was awful but that was the length he was willing to go to to not be alone.He made a mistake yes but he is not a bad person and if you think he is then I don't think you have ever gone through it.
I dont think anyone saying Ben looks too old is not exaggerating, and the makeup and lighting make him somehow look even older, somehow making him look sweatier and more wrinkly, like he's some kind of eldritch abomination trying to pass as a human. I'm not saying that people above the age of 18 can't look like a high school student or younger. For example, Andrew Garfield was around 28-29 during the filming of The Amazing Spider Man (roughly the same age as Ben Platt during the filming of DEH) and he was definitely able to pass as a high school student. Hell, I have a 14 year old brother that genuinely looks like be could pass as an elementary school student. It's just that a younger look is kind of just something you either have or you don't. Ben Platt simply doesn't have that kind of look, and I feel like he'd do better in a producer or co-director role, trying to help out an actual high school student (or someone able to pass as one) with their role. You've probably heard this about a billion times before, but if anyone was in the producer's chair OTHER than Marc Platt, there's no way in hell Ben would even be considered for the role of Evan in this movie. Edit: also why did they cut Good For You that's the best fucking song
This feels so close to me.Screaming on the inside and hoping for someone or something to save you while you look around and see people going on with their lives.
@@HappyBoyyyyyy only clips of it and I’ve read the whole script. Just from those I agree the musical is better, but this wasn’t as bad as people are trying to make it out to be.
@@firebros1695 I think It's not awful just a few things were unneedingly changed, like the removal of pretty crucial songs and the addition of ones that don't push the story forward. I am one of the people that doesn't like Ben Platt as Evan considering how old and out of place he looks compared to everyone else. I would highly recommend watching the musical for how much better (IMO) it is. thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.
@@HappyBoyyyyyy thanks for writing it! I agree with you on the part about the crucial songs and adding new ones that don’t move the story forward. At times Ben Platt looked old and out of place with everyone else but I didn’t think it was as bad as most people made it out to be. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk. I will make sure to buy tickets for the musical if it plays anywhere near me. I have also listened to the soundtrack.
As someone who's seen the musical with the OC (well online of course) and seen the movie, I'll say the movie was great too. Ben Platt didn't bother me that bad because to me he didn't look to old in most parts, I was upset about the songs they removed but I do enjoy the 2 new ones. Though there definitely could be improvements for the movie, definitely one of my favorites and going to get it on DVD when it releases
I love this song so much when you can relate to the lyrics of a song it hits so much different I can relate to Evan with the anxiety and depression the four friends I have I’ve been friends with since elementary school if I didn’t already know them I’d have absolutely no friends
He may be 27 years old playing a 17-year-old but he is very believable. Also this isn’t The first time that they’ve cast actors who are older than their characters. Take the majority of the cast of Grease.
Or Never Have I Ever, where there’s a 30 year old playing a sophomore. Don’t get me wrong, I love nhie, but it’s pretty hypocritical that all of a sudden, people are mad at casting an actor older than their character when this clearly wasn’t an issue before
@@bellablondon6172 Exactly! It’s very common to cast actors who are older then their characters. In Catch Me if You Can, Leonardo DiCaprio was 27/28 playing a 15-year-old. It’s no different. People just need to drop it.
Even in this movie! None of the teenager characters are played by actors/actresses younger than 22. It's not just him, people were just bullying him because they didn't like his hairstyle 🤦🏼♀️
It’s so reliable like I DO FEEL INVISIBLE and I love how people are getting real life problems ppl have these days and putting them in songs so the people that are going though it won’t feel alone and I’m crying because it’s nice to not be alone
Really underlines why he does what he does in movie. Finally finding a family and girlfriend. Makes the ending so beautiful when admits what has done to the family.
Hey Everyone . Can I thank Ben for this Phenom of This Life Changing Musical . I don't Think Ben had any idea of the lives he would impact. Thank you Ben . Broadway has never been the same since the show opened . Thank you Ben.The Conversations that this has sparked have been incredible. Has anyone been impacted by this musical as much as I have . Are you guys excited for the movie .
Were doing this song for our chorus concert, keep in mind a lot of us in the class im in (the only class doing this song) have been going through somethings, and the teacher knows about it, this song just hits close to home
I watched this movie for two days straight because I couldn't get through it I love it this just became my favorite musical it was grease but afta I saw this 2 days ago I feel in love from this 1st song
this movie/musicul/book hits so close, i struggle with anxity and depression and was admitted into a hospitol for it. so these lyrics and how emotional they are it makds me realize I am not alone. overall this is my favourite story
My girlfriend explained this musical to me about 6 months ago and honestly I thought it was dumb and didn’t make sense. I did like a couple of the songs but I didn’t really understand the context. She took me to see this on my birthday recently and I couldn’t have been more wrong. It was so powerful and moving and it made me streamline tears. Not only that but triggered me because I did loose a friend to suicide and even almost committed to myself when I was in high school feeling very similar with my anxiety disorder to Evan feeling like everyone was either against me, just used me, bullied and targeted me, and even ignored my existence. This just hit so close to home and didn’t like being reminded of that time but at same time appreciate my life today and how far I have come by giving life one more chance. 😭
1:30 Heidi in the background got a chuckle out of my friends and me. I know what they were trying to do, but it highkey looks like she was concerned when her son burst out singing
Definitely not as bad of a movie as people are making out to be, though I do slightly agree with some of the reasonable criticism it got. But I completely enjoyed it and enjoyed Ben Platt's performance and glad he came back, his age didn't bother me really because I don't think he looked to old, just a bit though
I really liked this movie.I have a theory, those who never had depression or anxiety don't care much for this movie and are calling it awful but those who have, I am sure you see his motivations, why he did what he did.People are saying Evan was a sociopath, I mean WTF, do you even fucking know what a sociopath is? It all started just because he couldn't say No to his family.Many people who has anxiety suffer from this problem including myself.I can't ever say no to an stranger for some reason.Even I can't understand why.I am not asking you to love Evan, just asking you to be a little more considerate.When I read those awful comments if feels so fucking sad that people can't see where he was coming from just like in real life
I hear you. Many of the things Evan does is fueled by anxiety and his desperation to escape from the perpetual emotional turmoil he's had. It all started as a simple and honest misunderstanding. He tries to tell the truth initially, but when Mr. and Mrs. Murphy started assuming Evan's relationship with Conner, he reluctantly continued the charade because of two things. First, he was afraid of breaking the hearts of Conner's family by revealing the truth, the shame/reprimand/awkwardness he would face from it, and the prospect of revealing something personal in the process. Second, he was hooked on the love and validation that he gained from everything that happened afterwards - love and validation that he never had before as an isolated teen with a single, overworked mom and a seemingly uncaring and cynical (family) friend. He was desperate due to his depression; it's the same type of desperation that is responsible for suicidal thoughts and tendencies. I agree with you when you say that people who actually suffered from mental health issues like depression and anxiety might be the only people who would be able to truly understand and relate with that.
I’ve suffered with mental illness for YEARS. Depression and this soon after got diagnosed with anxiety. However, I still find this movie lack luster and quite frankly just not good. I know where Evan, is coming from. But here’s the important thing to remember: your mental illness doesn’t excuse your actions. So saying that people who shit on the movie haven’t experienced mental illness, is a bold statement to make.
This song never ceases to amaze and make me cry. A good friend of mine committed suicide recently and she really really wanted to see this movie, and the number of times he sung this song was countless. 😔And I had no idea…………now this is my anthem for her

Amazing he sang these songs live on set. Shows how extremely talented Ben Platt is. Truly enjoy his music in this movie
Actually, this is from the original soundtrack of the movie, just dubbed over his lips. In the movie you hear his actual singing voice live
@@GabesEdtiz I loved that you could hear his voice echoing through the gym!
@@andreascott8150 the veins in his neck ruled out any doubts of it being a voice over😂💯
Couldn’t of put it better myself. Ben was amazing in the stage show and he is amazing in the movie. He truly is the heart of Evan Hansen.
Everyone said this movie was bad, honestly made me cry more than the musical did- I loved this movie
They didn't get it. It was the best movie I've seen in years!!!
SAME
I just realized, during the “when you’re falling in a forest part”, Evan standing in on a single red tile as everyone else walked on white
This made me tear up a little. I didn’t notice that!
@@andreascott8150 I know right?!
I love your profile pic
That single second clip of his mum walking into his dark bedroom to see Evan crying like that breaks me every time
I didn't noticed!
As someone with anxiety/ social anxiety disorder this song really made me feel like I wasn’t the only one. I felt so understood
Same
Me too
Me too...
誰もが上手く生きられる訳じゃないよなぁ…。
周りにはこんなにも多くの人がいるのに、自分の声を聞いてくれる人はどこにいるんだろう？
大勢の中でひとりぼっちを噛み締めるほど辛いことは無いな、とこの映画と歌から実感しました。
この歌、本当に大好きです😭
I don't care what people say about Ben's looks
BEN PLATT WILL ALWAYS BE THE EVAN HANSEN I KNOW!
He's a cutie!
｢独りで木から落ちたとき、周りに誰も居なかったらそれは落ちたと言えるの？音は立ったと言えるの？｣の歌詞が好きすぎる

this songs stuck in my head
When you're socially awkward, every lyric is so relatable...and honestly this has been my comfort zone whenever I feel socially anxious
How come I've just heard about this song now?! Literally hits close through home when I struggle socially.
i feel so seen. this song lets me know that i’m not the only one who’s alone and frozen that way.
I'm pretty sure this is where my tears started and never stopped...
We're doing this musical play as our final output, and i must say that i can't get this song out of my mind.

"We start with stars in our eyes, We start believing that we belong, But every sun doesn't rise, And no one tells you where you went wrong." This lyric hits me every time, this is how i feel every time i have difficulty in life, work, family. Nobody tells you what to fix and you NEVER GET BETTER!!!!!! WHY?

어제 봤는데 개인적으로 처음부터 끝까지 좋았음.. 벤플렛이 노래랑 연기를 너무 잘해서ㅠㅠㅜ
この曲めちゃ好き
はまちゃったよ！素敵 ！
This song is INCREDIBLE 🥺
Such a great song. Some thoughts about the movie:
* I don't care about Bens age, makeup/lighting could have been done better sometimes, but I think he is the best Evan and he doesn't look that old to me.
Ben is part of Evan and Evan is part of Ben, you can feel this character has his heart.
* Some say Evan is a bad person and that they can't sympathize with him. But DEH isn't a story about a hero, it's about a young guy who struggles with severe anxiety, depression and loneliness. And he feels the pressure to do something good for a grieving family. The choices he makes are a result of all these things.
* I'm sorry to hear they cut out some incredible songs (and Heidi/Connor parts) Why change a winning team? Especially Good for you is crucial for the story.
* The most important thing for me: It's so special to see how this musical has made a difference in so many lives. Don't forget there are a lot of youngsters who can sympathize with Evan VERY well. That's sad enough.
* I love the DEH/BP rabbit hole :-)
I agree
i agree with you, dude.
plus. i also think that Ben Platt was Perfect.
too bad that the important songs were cut but at least we got a movie, that's all that matters
ps. i don't about his age either.
Ikr......I fucking loved the movie.I totally understood why even did what he did.Yes what he did was awful but that was the length he was willing to go to to not be alone.He made a mistake yes but he is not a bad person and if you think he is then I don't think you have ever gone through it.
I agree with you I like the movie it has a good message I give it 9/10
I dont think anyone saying Ben looks too old is not exaggerating, and the makeup and lighting make him somehow look even older, somehow making him look sweatier and more wrinkly, like he's some kind of eldritch abomination trying to pass as a human. I'm not saying that people above the age of 18 can't look like a high school student or younger. For example, Andrew Garfield was around 28-29 during the filming of The Amazing Spider Man (roughly the same age as Ben Platt during the filming of DEH) and he was definitely able to pass as a high school student. Hell, I have a 14 year old brother that genuinely looks like be could pass as an elementary school student. It's just that a younger look is kind of just something you either have or you don't. Ben Platt simply doesn't have that kind of look, and I feel like he'd do better in a producer or co-director role, trying to help out an actual high school student (or someone able to pass as one) with their role.
You've probably heard this about a billion times before, but if anyone was in the producer's chair OTHER than Marc Platt, there's no way in hell Ben would even be considered for the role of Evan in this movie.
Edit: also why did they cut Good For You that's the best fucking song
One of the best movies.. i don't know why it doesn't seem so
This feels so close to me.Screaming on the inside and hoping for someone or something to save you while you look around and see people going on with their lives.
I don’t care what anyone says. This was a great movie.
Have you watched the musical by chance?
@@HappyBoyyyyyy only clips of it and I’ve read the whole script. Just from those I agree the musical is better, but this wasn’t as bad as people are trying to make it out to be.
@@firebros1695 I think It's not awful just a few things were unneedingly changed, like the removal of pretty crucial songs and the addition of ones that don't push the story forward. I am one of the people that doesn't like Ben Platt as Evan considering how old and out of place he looks compared to everyone else. I would highly recommend watching the musical for how much better (IMO) it is. thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.
@@HappyBoyyyyyy thanks for writing it! I agree with you on the part about the crucial songs and adding new ones that don’t move the story forward. At times Ben Platt looked old and out of place with everyone else but I didn’t think it was as bad as most people made it out to be. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk. I will make sure to buy tickets for the musical if it plays anywhere near me. I have also listened to the soundtrack.
As someone who's seen the musical with the OC (well online of course) and seen the movie, I'll say the movie was great too. Ben Platt didn't bother me that bad because to me he didn't look to old in most parts, I was upset about the songs they removed but I do enjoy the 2 new ones. Though there definitely could be improvements for the movie, definitely one of my favorites and going to get it on DVD when it releases
i just wanna hug him
this song really hit me. the forest part really really hit me man.
I love this song so much when you can relate to the lyrics of a song it hits so much different I can relate to Evan with the anxiety and depression the four friends I have I’ve been friends with since elementary school if I didn’t already know them I’d have absolutely no friends
He may be 27 years old playing a 17-year-old but he is very believable.
Also this isn’t The first time that they’ve cast actors who are older than their characters. Take the majority of the cast of Grease.
Agreed. I know a guy in my high school that deadass acted and looked like Evan Hansen. He absolutely plays a convincing 17 year old
Or freaks and geeks, Linda cardellini was about 23 when she played 16 year old Lindsay Weir
Or Never Have I Ever, where there’s a 30 year old playing a sophomore. Don’t get me wrong, I love nhie, but it’s pretty hypocritical that all of a sudden, people are mad at casting an actor older than their character when this clearly wasn’t an issue before
@@bellablondon6172 Exactly! It’s very common to cast actors who are older then their characters. In Catch Me if You Can, Leonardo DiCaprio was 27/28 playing a 15-year-old. It’s no different. People just need to drop it.
Even in this movie! None of the teenager characters are played by actors/actresses younger than 22. It's not just him, people were just bullying him because they didn't like his hairstyle 🤦🏼♀️
I love this, mate of mine always used to sing this before he moved school, reminds me of him :)
Song so good that my mind immediantly make a scenario similar to this.
It’s so reliable like I DO FEEL INVISIBLE and I love how people are getting real life problems ppl have these days and putting them in songs so the people that are going though it won’t feel alone and I’m crying because it’s nice to not be alone
I really can relieved to Evan
너무 좋아 ㅜㅜ
Really underlines why he does what he does in movie. Finally finding a family and girlfriend. Makes the ending so beautiful when admits what has done to the family.
Of course, what he did, it wasn’t really his fault. It all just poured onto him
Ben Platt and his voice... incredible!
Hey Everyone . Can I thank Ben for this Phenom of This Life Changing Musical . I don't Think Ben had any idea of the lives he would impact. Thank you Ben . Broadway has never been the same since the show opened . Thank you Ben.The Conversations that this has sparked have been incredible. Has anyone been impacted by this musical as much as I have . Are you guys excited for the movie .
Were doing this song for our chorus concert, keep in mind a lot of us in the class im in (the only class doing this song) have been going through somethings, and the teacher knows about it, this song just hits close to home
As a anxiety suffer myself this video means a lot
この曲聴くために映画行く価値あるわホンマに。
The songs that we always listen to every day for years 😍 fan since 2018
This I can't relate to people have social problems this song can help you
If a lot of people helped people like Evan, I sure those bad stuff like school shooting will go away.
I think this is my new favorite song I just keep putting this on outo loop
This song truly expresses what it’s like to have anxiety, we all struggle in some way
I watched this movie for two days straight because I couldn't get through it I love it this just became my favorite musical it was grease but afta I saw this 2 days ago I feel in love from this 1st song
I can’t stop listening to this
Wowowowow....This is the most poetic way to define us as neurodivergents.....God bless you.
It’s just so hopeful but sorrowful. I listened to it like a million times!! Love it!!
This is like the best song
this movie/musicul/book hits so close, i struggle with anxity and depression and was admitted into a hospitol for it. so these lyrics and how emotional they are it makds me realize I am not alone. overall this is my favourite story
the writekng is bad because i am useing oculus quest 2 to write
Fantastic back up band
My girlfriend explained this musical to me about 6 months ago and honestly I thought it was dumb and didn’t make sense. I did like a couple of the songs but I didn’t really understand the context. She took me to see this on my birthday recently and I couldn’t have been more wrong. It was so powerful and moving and it made me streamline tears. Not only that but triggered me because I did loose a friend to suicide and even almost committed to myself when I was in high school feeling very similar with my anxiety disorder to Evan feeling like everyone was either against me, just used me, bullied and targeted me, and even ignored my existence. This just hit so close to home and didn’t like being reminded of that time but at same time appreciate my life today and how far I have come by giving life one more chance. 😭
Love ben and love the movie. Also the voice
Ben Platt is Evan Hansen!
Plus, his voice sounds absolutely magical and he sells it really well.
この映画はあまり自分には刺さらなかったけど、この歌はめちゃんこ大好き。
That clip of his Mum walking into the bedroom to see Evan crying like that breaks me.
1:30 Heidi in the background got a chuckle out of my friends and me. I know what they were trying to do, but it highkey looks like she was concerned when her son burst out singing
😂
LMAOOOOOOOO
She’s like “um- okay- I’ll just…”
この映画はほんとに最高
Definitely not as bad of a movie as people are making out to be, though I do slightly agree with some of the reasonable criticism it got. But I completely enjoyed it and enjoyed Ben Platt's performance and glad he came back, his age didn't bother me really because I don't think he looked to old, just a bit though
I really liked this movie.I have a theory, those who never had depression or anxiety don't care much for this movie and are calling it awful but those who have, I am sure you see his motivations, why he did what he did.People are saying Evan was a sociopath, I mean WTF, do you even fucking know what a sociopath is? It all started just because he couldn't say No to his family.Many people who has anxiety suffer from this problem including myself.I can't ever say no to an stranger for some reason.Even I can't understand why.I am not asking you to love Evan, just asking you to be a little more considerate.When I read those awful comments if feels so fucking sad that people can't see where he was coming from just like in real life
I hear you. Many of the things Evan does is fueled by anxiety and his desperation to escape from the perpetual emotional turmoil he's had. It all started as a simple and honest misunderstanding. He tries to tell the truth initially, but when Mr. and Mrs. Murphy started assuming Evan's relationship with Conner, he reluctantly continued the charade because of two things. First, he was afraid of breaking the hearts of Conner's family by revealing the truth, the shame/reprimand/awkwardness he would face from it, and the prospect of revealing something personal in the process. Second, he was hooked on the love and validation that he gained from everything that happened afterwards - love and validation that he never had before as an isolated teen with a single, overworked mom and a seemingly uncaring and cynical (family) friend. He was desperate due to his depression; it's the same type of desperation that is responsible for suicidal thoughts and tendencies. I agree with you when you say that people who actually suffered from mental health issues like depression and anxiety might be the only people who would be able to truly understand and relate with that.
I completely agree with you
@@kayjayt8607 yes, exactly
Thank you! He needs to be loved and supported, not hated.
I’ve suffered with mental illness for YEARS. Depression and this soon after got diagnosed with anxiety. However, I still find this movie lack luster and quite frankly just not good.
I know where Evan, is coming from. But here’s the important thing to remember: your mental illness doesn’t excuse your actions.
So saying that people who shit on the movie haven’t experienced mental illness, is a bold statement to make.
This song never ceases to amaze and make me cry. A good friend of mine committed suicide recently and she really really wanted to see this movie, and the number of times he sung this song was countless. 😔And I had no idea…………now this is my anthem for her
Thank you, Evan! 😊
My choir class is singing this song right now
어제 영화관서 첨 봣는데 너무 좋아서 또 영화관에 보러감!!2회차!!! 계속 보고싶다♥
