Funny Cuca mentions, “bun in the oven”. ‘Cause some of the overseers of this movie thought that Nina’s personal conflict wasn’t “high enough stakes” for her to leave college. But Lin Manuel Miranda was adamant that her inner turmoil was interesting enough without delving into negative stereotypes.

[@kevinmay9151]

The problem is that they tried to create that new turmoil in the same plot line as the original musical

[@decentgrocerybag4003]

@@kevinmay9151 No but it wasn’t a part of the original musical. Because Lin, the writer, DIDNT want to give into negative stereotype since the characters were based around people he knew and grew up around, not just Latinos and their stereotypes. Some producers I believe it was wanted that to be the plot, but he refused. That’s what I’ve heard anyway. I was a fan of the musical before the movie, but I’m not that into it all.

[@sarahangellis8291]

[@razberrymist9475]

!!!!! LETS GIVE IT UP FOR LIN

[@ajaxhopper9859]

I think he was off base with that judgment. A pregnancy would've been a bit extreme, but I think the conflict of the original play -- where Nina is unable to keep up with her classes because of having to work two jobs -- feels a lot more relatable. The conflict she has in the movie feels forced and overdramatic imo.

[@nickwarner2524]

[@misssteak1290]

She's like "lol yea you heard that from me"

[@IHARumor]

Their relationship is different in the musical and the movie. In the stage musical they've never dated before. They were just friends and their relationship only becomes romantic after Nina comes back from college. In the movie, however, they are childhood sweethearts who broke up when Nina went to college and are now rekindling their relationship. So in the original stage musical Nina clearly doesn't know anything about the size of Benny's... taxi. However in the movie he's her ex so presumably she does know lol.

Fun thing I just realized: So Nina arrives from the West Coast with straight hair. As she gets back on track, her hair becomes curlier, like saying she's coming back to herself. It's nice since most of the time it turns into the opposite, curly hair turns straight for character development

I like the fact that in the end when they find out that Nina dropped out, everything goes quiet, and they end up saying “I don’t know.” I feel like they rarely say “I don’t know” because they seem to be pretty hardcore and over the top gossipers who happen to “know” everything about everybody. It’s because Nina is a hard worker and even they have no idea why she dropped out because they know it’s not like her. I just thought it says a lot that they actually say “I don’t know” after finding out Nina dropped out because it shows how Nina is a really smart person and overall really hardworking and determined to get what she wants.
