On the brink of turning 30, a promising theater composer navigates love, friendship and the pressure to create something great before time runs out.

Seriously, how is this film SO good...and the whole world isn't talking about it. Staggering performances from Garfield and Shipp. Among others. And brilliant conceptual execution bringing this story to film from Miranda.

I was slightly jarred at the differences between the stage show at first, but this was done so beautifully. I think a large part of your question is that the musical itself simply isn't as well known as Hamilton or Rent and will have to rely on word of mouth which, of course, takes time.

Lin chose to film this song this way because he said he wants to show that as a songwriter and someone performs his songs, the world would see the performer on the stage but what he would see is the person/environment that inspired him to write the lyrics. He literally just brought us to the mind of brilliant writers like him

[@behshadmohebali6234]

This is an example of something that only LMM can do. How many directors do you know who are serious songwriters and lyricists at the same time?

[@taniab2018]

Interesting. I just figure he did it that way because he pretty much had to, given that unlike the stage show, they are using two actors, as opposed to having Vanessa & Alexandra's characters played by the same actress (which is what the stage version does).

Lin Manuel Miranda has 3 musical movies coming out that could potentially get nominated for an Oscar this year. If he gets it, he will have attained the coveted EGOT award. (Emmy, Golden Globe, Oscar, Tony) in fact, he will have attained the rarer PEGOT prize, since he has a Pulitzer Prize.

“You don’t need a music box melody to know what I mean” almost made me cry the first time I heard it. Art can help us transcend the difficulties of every day life, but it’s possible to get so wrapped up in it that you aren’t present for the people in your life. I think a lot of creatives can relate to that struggle.

[@robint8855]

that lyric is honestly my favourite thing ever, i can’t describe how much i love it like it physically does something to me every time i hear it

[@christinayang2658]

I totally relate, I grew up always loving the arts especially dance but my family never was into it much at all. so once I got a car I finally started taking dance classes and kind of got into different community dance teams, performances and shows. It was so exciting I loved it so much but those 5 years it was very difficult always felt like I was choosing my dance teams over family... it just really tore me apart inside. I was ambitious purely dancing for the joy, highs and focus it gave me, but it was wierd when my family members who haven't seen me for 3 months just disapproved my absence. It took me awhile but I think I know how to express the artist in me and balance the relationships that are most dearest to me or rather how to not over guilt myself or how to communicate to them better.

[@peytonjaymes4348]

Alexandra Shipp AMAZED me in this movie and especially this song. This was truly one of her best roles, and I didn't know she was such a vocal champion- able to do a toe-to-toe duet with Vanessa (known for her stellar singing) and power through with such raw emotions and crisp belts. If the rent film was made in 2021, I could see her playing Mimi the same way Rosario Dawson did, especially singing-wise. Truly took my breath away @ 2:03 just- GOOSEBUMPS.

[@missharrington4452]

You also saw and heard a Mimi character from Alexandera too :) She looks like she'd give Mimi the real grit of hell.

[@SilverStrumer]

I bet her character is the inspiration for Mimi in Rent ! 😊

[@emiliamorgan5052]

shes hella auto-tuned. Listen to the song at 2x speed. Sounds like a robot singing.

[@ElizaHamilton1780]

I think that’s the point. I think that Lin wanted to find someone who could play Mimi and have her be Susan instead. Throughout all of this movie, you can see the different connections between RENT and Jon’s world. You can see how he could’ve made a character like Mimi based on Susan, for instance. You can see why Angel gives Collins a coat. You can see why Mimi was suddenly sick with a fever by the end of the show. Then again: In the first Broadway production of “tick, tick…BOOM!” the first Susan was played by someone who was Maureen in one of Jon’s RENT workshops, if I remember right. So it depends on the production and which way they want to go with the character.

[@kgal1298]

Honestly I liked this more than In the Heights. I think the numbers were well done and the cast singing was stellar. I had no idea Garfield could sing before this, but with that said I get it because this musical didn't get commercial fame, but it's a nice precursor to what eventually lead to Rent.

[@linndylau]

I think the same, I freaking love In The Heights as a stage musical, but I believe I can't say it is a great film, I mean, it's well adapted but it's lacking something (as a movie), and I really wish Lin-Manuel Miranda was the one who directed it 🥺 although, Tick, tick...Boom! Is wonderful and it's great in those little details that In The Heights fails

[@jennyrodriguez811]

I believe In the Heights movie had a poorer screenplay, some of the details they decided to add, such as the DACA thing, Benny's reduction of his story and Nina's mom being dead were detrimental IMO to the movie. I feel with Tick Tick Boom was a better collaborative effort from everyone involved.

[@poptarts5003]

When you mention that, I don’t think you should compare a musical like In The Heights with Tick Tick Boom when they have totally different genres and plot. Despite that, you have to consider how different the marketing strategies of ITH and TTB were as well. In terms of plot, ITH is a celebration and love for community and home. TTB tackles with themes and issues that are heavy, personal and intimate. I believe they’re both great in their own right. Why else would Lin place his trust on someone else to direct ITH.

the song being the song Larson had the most trouble coming up with but ended up being a masterpiece ballad is simply amazing!

[@JohnnyNuelo]

“Defenses are not the way to go, and you know… or at least you knew.” This chorus is SO beautifully crafted. I know in the film we see Jonathan lose so much because he’s blinded by his obsession to create something he feels will give him the recognition he deserves… and while he does, he pushes away his love and his friends. Andrew sells it so beautifully. Everything about this song is amazing. The fact that you can tell Jonathan Larson wrote it for Superbia due to lines about the screens, yet it fits SO WELL in the modern era, the musical was way ahead of its time. But you can also tell that he took so much personal experience from it just from what we see in tick tick boom… its easy to write a song about your own frustrations in a relationship, but it is a monumental task to write one about your own shortcomings, and one that is from the others perspective at that. The fact that Lin directed this so well, having Susan sing with Karessa because he KNEW how personal that song was for Jonathan. Having him be transported to the rooftop where they talked, and him knowing that this is what she wanted so badly for him to understand. It’s beautiful… it just makes me so sad knowing that Jonathan never got to see his dreams pay off. He’s truly a wonderfully creative human being who deserved so much more than what he was given.

Who’s better, Vanessa or Alexandra? I can’t tell at all. They are both SO GOOD!!!!

[@beccaglyn]

Alexandra shipp was so good at her roll in this movies

[@Soaptoaster]

Where's the LOVE button for everything to do with this film and song @?

[@joannakathleenn]

This is the point of the movie where I started crying and didn't stop

[@maricler2653]

same. Very much should have brought tissues!

[@ttaka8233]

That tracking shot at the beginning gives me chills combined with this arrangement of the song which has Alex Lacamoire written all over it.

[@tanyaibu4012]

OMG Susan's voice so soothing and beautifulllllll

[@adarcus4053]

Both women feel like they're singing it from different points of view. Alexandra is singing from the point of view of the cost that creating this and chasing his dream will be. Vanessa is singing from the point of view of the seductive glory that could be ahead.

[@lorynn__]

Alex ATE THAT!! I soo wonder what her own version would sound like😳

[@meganemily8770]

the emotions in this scene is just 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻 also alexandra shipp's vocals is insane

[@guadalupefestival]

Vanessa Hudgens can do it all. What a great film.

[@martinrodal8687]

First time I watched this I felt "this feels kind of like a generic sad song", but upon listening to it over and over, I find it to be one of the most beautiful songs I've ever listened to. This movie is SO good!

[@Zar_Art]

Though it's pleasant, this musical arrangement doesn't captivate me like the stage version with the live band.

[@sultanali1863]

THIS FILM IS SO GOOD. Is there anything Andrew Garfield can't do?

[@dc_al_coda]

The most brilliant thing about this scene is how it perfectly visualizes what was already implied in the stage show. In the stage show, Susan and Karessa are played by the same actress, so the audience is able to interpret the song as being sung by either character. This scene takes that idea and runs with it 100% and shows us what Jon is seeing versus everyone else. I love it!

[@foxlima4642]

Fell in love with Alexandra Shipp

[@HannahSmith-kr5jh]

This is truly one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard, the imagery and the emotion are so raw and genuine. Every verse is so carefully and intentionally crafted.

[@BlueYoshi85]

I am baffled by the lack of accolades and awards for this movie. It is simply breathtaking

[@katerichards1629]

I really love Vanessa's voice in this so much. It's just so calming and pleasant.

[@swiftie2161]

I dont wanna hear anyone try to say Sharpay was a better performer again Vanessas killed it on every musical project

[@crazilyinliv]

Sharpay was all glitz and glamor but Gabriella was a better singer and dancer. Vanessa has always been the more seasoned performer. Ashley and Zac has talked about having to keep up with her many times. Vanessa, Corbin and Lucas held much of the group’s talent honestly.

[@pauljohn961]

Vanessa voice is always soaring on every HSM group performance

[@danielblair9535]

Sharpay WAS the better PERFORMER. She always put on a show. Gabriella WAS the better SINGER and VOCALIST.

[@MrNorcal81]

Just brilliant. I would have liked to have seen Vanessa singing more of the main verse but it's not a complaint. Alexandra is stunning (as is Vanessa). Vanessa has gotten more beautiful as she's gotten older and her voice has more substance now. The look that she's sporting in this song suits her perfectly. Without a ponytail and subtle, understated makeup, she looks better than ever.

[@elest397]

Alex Shipp and Vanessa Hudgens are phenomenal!

[@ThatRyanD]

I love this film so much, but this particular scene is so good. Simple but incredibly effective. As Jonathan hears his song, essentially for the first time, two things happen which are both important, and brought to life perfectly by both actresses. 1) Jonathan is healed and processes his situation with Susan. The song is written essentially for her to sing as a therapy to him. When he's alone on the rooftop with her, that's what's happening. Emotionally, he is finally maturing and gaining the perspective he needed, because he's given someone else the words to say to him. 2) Karessa saves the show. As she sings, at first it's quite reserved but technically solidly performed. We cut to others in the room (not Jonathan - he's not there any more) and get a hint of them all going "Oh ok, this is it" as they realise this is something special. Finally, as the two actresses sing together at the end of the song, both 'versions' combine. The performance of the song in the room is allowed to breathe and relax and, in doing so, begin to convey the emotion that Jonathan is feeling from Susan to the whole room. Basically, both 'sides' of the song are individually great, but it's when they come together that both of these 'arcs' are able to complete, because they compliment each other so well. gah. oscars all round.

[@ayinperdana]

Vanessa Hudgens!! ❤ see vanessa singing again reminds me to Gabriella on HSM ❤❤

[@tomlanderos2437]

First of all, the construction of this song is impeccable, and Alexandra Shipp and Vanessa Hudgens sing the hell of it!! And Andrew Garfield’s reactions. No wonder he got an Oscar nomination. I won’t be sad if he wins.
