critics: the most important characters in In The Heights are Nina, Benny, Usnavi, and Vanessa everyone else: DANI

[@ekim1018]

True, so true

[@SecondclassKid]

Me: SONNY

[@bonnielennox4912]

Mani same!she knows everything happening in the whole neighbourhood within seconds. Arguably the most underrated character in the show.

[@jaylites]

me: CARLA

[@ekim1018]

"Went for a roll in the hay HAY!" is my favorite part. Benny looks so mortified

[@iannev899]

i love how carla was laughing so much after dani said the "you get all your coffee for free" bit

[@averylfong4843]

I fucking cry every time. This is one of my favourite songs in the whole musical cause it encapsulates the feeling of changing immigrant culture today so exactly. It's like this perfect snapshot. It's so fucking bittersweet, when you realise/witness the celebration that is just a total release of pent up emotions, and everyone is giving it all for that one last night, yet it's punctuated by Vanessa and freakin' SONNY who both don't really know how to feel, who don't want to let it all go and who want to leave so bad... the line "We are powerless, we are powerless" is just so... powerful. And when Usnavi sings his solo bit "maybe we're powerless, a corner full of foreigners" and "can we sing so loud and raucous they can hear us across the bridge in East Secaucus" just hits me so hard because that just encapsulates it all so well. The feeling of diaspora, of not knowing where you belong, of being estranged in a corner of a country that you will never fully integrate into, and the dying of what culture you do have/have managed to hold on to. That burning feeling of being powerless, yet refusing to let it die. Fucking amazing.

[@TheArchsage74]

That's why the opening number gives me chills. "In the Heights, I hang my flag up on display. It reminds me that I came from miles away".

[@TheJuniorHighWeirdos]

Averyl Fong This is the best comment I have ever seen on KZbin.

[@allencitoowo4682]

amen

[@kaisa_q7970]

And if you watched the movie they changed the lyrics that made me sad because when Carla and daniella said “everything changes today…usnavi leaveing today..off to a better place” and when Benny said “ everything changes today..goodbye mr.Rosario…im taking over the barrio” then Carla and Dani said “we’re leaving the barrio”

[@kaisa_q7970]

It made me sad when they didn’t put it in the movie because it’s my favorite lines of the musical

[@kalendy7355]

Lin might be the only person I know that keeps a whole full sized flag in his pocket.

AND his Usnavi hat

i love how the girls in the back hug when usnavi says "maybe this is our last night together" it mustve been so hard know this was their last night together.

This has got to be the only live concert/performance where I find the people singing along to the songs endearing instead of annoying. Like, you can hear it in the video. Every single lyric? The people know it. Where to come in, where to laugh, where to sing loudly, shout, or answer back... it's awesome and precious. This show has truly touched many.

Carla is too cute for this world Dani is very dramatic Sonny cares so much for others and wants to be a great friend and be their for Pete Pete just wants to help people with his art and be the best friend he can be for Sonny Piragua just wants his business to go well These are my favorite characters and they are just as important as the other characters.

This may be a stretch, but you know how there's the little reprise bit before Atencion, and the last phrase they sing is 'la bandera Cubana'? Well I'm pretty sure that Abuela Claudia is from Cuba (she says so in Pacienca y Fe), so suddenly that last line becomes all foreshadowy :(

that’s exactly it!!! also, the last lines of the song (not the reprise) are “alza la bandera...” and so on, and they get through DR, PR, and Mexico, and then don’t finish and say Cuba. because the lady from Cuba just died!! more foreshadowing for ya

Do you realize that Usnavi was going to leave Sonny, who is 16 and Usnavi is his legal guardian. And he thinks that money is going to help. What would have happened to Sonny, would he have gone to live with Dani and Carla or Pete. Or would he be taken by social services?

[@victoriabell9546]

I though the movie cast did really well. Plus, in terms of original cast members that appeared in the movie, Lin was piragüero, Chris Jackson was the Mr. Softee man, Olga Merdiz reprised her role as Abuela Claudia, Seth Stewart (Graffiti Pete) was the bartender in The Club scene, and the late, great Doreen Montalvo was one of Nina's neighbors in "Breathe." Janet Decal (Carla) made a voice cameo in the title song saying "I've never been north of 96th street," and Javier Muñoz made a voice cameo in "The Club" as the guy asking Vanessa to dance. Priscilla Lopez made a cameo as Camila, albeit only in pictures since she isn't alive in the film.
