[@nathancreek6086]

This movie really was robbed with the Oscar noms... It should have been nominated for directing, adapted screenplay, supporting actress for Vanessa/Alexandra, and supporting actor for Bradley because he had Sondheim's mannerisms down perfectly, but honestly it could have had a best picture nomination too because it was by far the best movie musical of the year if not the past 10 years Also WHY has nobody ever fully produced Superbia??

[@Zakemaster]

If I remember right, the reason nobody has produced Superbia already is because there isn’t a single draft available anymore. In his notes that his family received, they have sections from multiple different drafts, but not a coherent whole, so somebody else would need to come in and finish it, which nobody seemed to want to happen. It’s something along those lines. Basically there isn’t just a book and lyric for Superbia sitting around for somebody to produce as is.

[@quistwing]

i dooon't understand why andrew didnt win best actor for it, his performance of "why" should have won an oscar all on its own

Netflix let die this movie😫, they focused more in films like The Power of the Dog and Don't Look Up

[@dangosandlemons]

Unpopular Opinion: I don’t think Vanessa’s character really had a lot of acting? Most of her scenes were her singing. Maybe the woman who played Susan could be nominated? I do think that the guy playing Michael should’ve been nomonated.

Supporting actor for Robin de Jesus and Alexandra Shipp you mean? I mean their performances were incredible and in comparison Bradley and Vanessa had very minor roles. They did a wonderful job, but very minor.

[@ruffboiALT]

I was a hardcore RENTaholic in like 2005-2009ish, and so I knew this show forward and back and I knew what happened to Jon, and I just... watching this film was heartbreaking and cathartic and everyone did it so well. Jon's sister was involved in this movie, and she said being on set with Andrew as Jon was like getting to spend time with her brother again. I just can't.

[@AuthorZaraHoffman]

He's also acting super hard while singing on the stage because he's recreating what Jonathan Larsen did in the recorded performance of his Tick Tick Boom (that they're reenacting)

[@claracarvalho321]

Thats exactly what i thought

[@beasan7665]

THANK YOU! That's what I was screaming here!! He sounds relaxed, because he probably was when he was recording the songs in the studio, but on stage he's Jonathan Larson and not Andrew, and Jonathan Larson always looked very stressed and "crazy" during his performances, with all those veins showing in his neck and his crazy eyes hahaha

[@mariastephens1827]

Yes exactly. As Andrew always says, Jon was always "turned up to an 11". He was singing "for life and death". Andrew as Jon put his absolute everything into his performance. That's why the vein is popping, why he looks "manic" as people have described it in a misunderstanding way.

[@vjo6158]

Exactly my thoughts, Andrew Garfield said he imitated Jonathan and the way "he sang for his life", not technically perfect.

[@reneebush2399]

Yep. I was hoping this was mentioned.

[@anxietyisms]

i love that vanessa hudgens was part of this. not only was she mimi on broadway for a while, she was maureen in the rent live studio production. it was so cool to see the original rent actors in the restaurant scene!

[@huntress647]

I love how the movie is a perfect dedication to Johnathan Larson but also a love letter to the theater community and relatable to young artists.

[@feitocomfruta]

Finally, the most important reason this show is relatable and heartbreaking is that ultimately, it’s a show about a failure. Superbia never got produced, despite all the work he put into it. But it reminds you that after you fail, you can keep going and find the next big success.

[@fulya6679]

Andrew actually sang Why live and it means a lot to him because he connects the song with his mother who he has lost before starting to shoot this movie. I'm so happy you liked it.

One of the things I loved about this movie is that they didn’t try to keep Michael’s reveal too close to the chest so that people might have figured it out before the official reveal but still have it pack a massive emotional punch when they finally said it out loud.

[@CritRedesign]

Shout out to the editor, all the extra work, names, productions, and the side comments. Going the extra mile!

[@dlmbs]

Three things: (1) I'm so happy you finally saw the movie! It's one of the best musical movies by far. (2) Andrew sang Why in this movie live so his performance in the scene was raw. (3) The one who did the voicemail message was THE Stephen Sondheim. (Edit: Was doing this comment before I even got to the scene 😅 sorry about that... I will add tho about how it came about: LMM gave Steve a copy of the voicemail message and then Steve told Lin that the message was cliche and asked Lin if he could rewrite it and if Bradley (the guy who played Steve) is unavailable to record it, Steve will do it himself and then Lin just asked him to do it.) Also, gosh the Sunday scene still gives me the chills in the best way as a fan of musicals. Welcome to the TTB fan club, Hannah! Hahaha Edit: i can give you a long list of fun facts here but during the Superbia rehearsals, the blue shirt Andrew was wearing was actually Jonathan's.

[@evejones9781]

Please do give more facts

[@dlmbs]

@@evejones9781 oh! Hahaha well then... I might edit and add more but here are more that I can say at the top of my head: - The first scene they shot, according to LMM, was actually the Why scene because the venue's availability was limited. - The woman with the blue/green scarf after the first chorus of Louder Than Words is Julie Larson, Jonathan Larson's sister and the guy not far from her is the director of the OG off-Broadway version of TTB. - The place where they did the swimming scenes was said to be the very place where the real Jon Larson spent most of his time swimming... They first scouted other pool places then Lin just had that "feeling" like there's just something about the one they ended up using. It was almost halfway through or after them shooting the scenes when they found out it was the actual Jonathan Larson hangout spot, if the last few words made any sense. - According to Andrew, the director's chair they used with the computer is, you guessed it, actually Jonathan Larson's. - The set designer were very keen for details when it comes to recreating Jon's apartment. From the paint-splattered white sofa to the bookcase bending to the tapes to even the paintings (which were painted by Jon's friends and then gave LMM the blessing to have that for the set as well) - Also, you might have missed Chris Jackson's (Benny [ITH] & George Washington [Hamilton]) cameo in the LTW audience. He was the one who entered the theater before Louder Than Words and was in front of Steve Sondheim during the audience montage. I mean, the movie was so special to me to the point that I got to read and watch other reviews and analyses to get to know and admire Jon and his work even more.

[@slushiesforlife]

About the shirt in No More, Andrew actually kept it too

[@marrrst]

While it is not how he imagined, he did leave a legacy. It is sad hearing that line, “you still have time”. No he doesn’t. After hearing the first song, I wish suburbia was picked up. It was amazing. I like how one chance encounter (lin being in the audience) helped further and preserve his legacy forever and the high school versions of Tik Tik boom. It is sad hearing about how he did not even see opening night. I can’t imagine what he must be feeling in that moment.

[@feitocomfruta]

And Michael is based off of Jonathan’s best friend, who I believe is still alive. So the friend that thought he was on borrowed time lost the friend who should have had more time. But one thing someone pointed out is that the love story of the movie is really of a straight guy and his gay best friend, who truly loved each other unconditionally. I mean look at “No More”: those are dear friends who feel comfortable enough with each other at all times to the extent that they act like absolute DORKS when they are together.

[@miss-i5045]

About the "spitting in the mask" thing: yup, swimmers do that. I swam for about 14 years at competition level but rarely did it. It is done so that the goggles don't fog up because of the change in temperature, the water on the outside of the glass is usually much colder than the air or your face on the "inside" :D Though from my own experience, doing it with goggles like Andrew is wearing in that scene is just not that necessary, since it will only fog up for a short while, and if he is not in a competition and pressed for time, he could just wait for it to clear. Most swimmers or divers do this when they wear masks that also cover their nose: the additional warm airflow from your nose will most definitely let your goggles fog up even when you've been in the water for a while. The spit kind of neutralizes that. So yeah, here you all have a nice, overly long comment about spitting in goggles. You're welcome. xD

I just got chills at the ending.. again. I've seen this so many times and it does this to me every single time. 😭

[@mikaelavice614]

This was an AMAZING movie. Really enjoyed it and the music was BOMB. Andrew Garfield is a GEM! 😁

[@lauracamille4065]

If you're impressed with Vanessa here, maybe react to Grease Live sometime! It's hardly a perfect production, but Vanessa knocks it out of the park, which is extra impressive considering her father passed away literally the night before the performance.

[@whatacatchmari]

As someone who is also turning 30 this year, you were not alone in having an existential crisis, lol. But I will gladly put myself through it over and over again because this film is just incredible.

[@androidsentbycyberl1fe]

I was NOT planning to cry while watching this video, but here I am, sobbing along with Hannah

[@CierraSuee]

Not me being called out in the beginning lolololol. I've seen this movie multiple times and still cried during your reactions. I'm so glad you watched it and liked it! It really is inspiring and such a love letter to musical theater fans and to Jonathan Larson. Lin-Manuel knew what we needed and he delivered. Thank you for doing this reaction!

[@tamdirtylion]

I appreciate every second of your reaction! I had all the same feelings! My husband was very confused by the range of emotions this movie caused me to express and seeing someone else understand it in this way was fantastic. I watched this movie because of your previous reactions to the songs!

[@jessicalay6553]

Yes I have been waiting for this! I just know you are going to get into it. Waiting for her to say ohhhh the drama! 💜

[@thedoctorissogroovy]

Hannah, this was fab!! Also I love how it's an ADHD thing that we all says "Hi John" right at the beginning haha also omg Joshua Henry's voice is life

[@Sam-tk6dq]

Your editor had fun with this one and I'm enjoying it

[@bnorem09]

“Why?” was filmed live. Andrew’s vocals cut me. He’s so good in this.

[@brainstyle4325]

Hi! I am a swimmer and spitting in the mask is actually common. It keeps the inside of the goggles from fogging up due to the layer of moisture. Although most of my friends prefer to dip their goggle's in the pool for a second.

[@GMoney-B]

I think your reaction particularly during the climax and buildup of louder than words was everybody else's reaction too. It seems like your expression on your face was like mine where I was thinking often through the movie, "wholy crap! I can't believe Andrew Garfield could sing, let alone like that and play too." and even though I don't know him of course, I couldn't help but feel crazy proud for him and what he accomplished and did in this role and these performances, probably just from being a fan of his other movies, starting with spiderman way way back. Dude's a solid dude with ridiculous work ethic and passion for what he does.

[@faureamour]

Ugh, this movie is so freaking good! And Jonathan Larson wrote some dang good music. I've been listening to the soundtrack on repeat, especially Come to Your Senses and Swimming. Though, the harmonies in Louder Than Words are beautifully chilling. So glad you reacted!

[@lea.sunshiine]

This movie is such a gem, truly - made me cry every time I watched it. The story, the way the actors brought it to life, the songs, the harmonies. I cannot stress enough how they were robbed at the Oscars!! Now you reacting to it makes me cry again...but kinda in a good way^^

[@Shae29]

21:38 in an interview with Andrew, he said that he was a trained swimmer when he was a kid bc his dad was a swimming coach. They had 2 days to shoot this scene (or more, I don’t remember), but Andrew was like, “I got it in 1 day bc I know how to swim!😂”

[@allisonbergh4429]

Apparently they had hired a swimmer but ended up only using him for a couple of close-up passes 😆 and it was Andrew’s idea to sing underwater!

[@jennifernelson611]

I’ve watched this movie so many times and the songs still totally give me chills. Great to see your reactions of appreciation. This movie is so layered with details, definitely worth a rewatch.

[@saratruex5783]

"That was so beautiful, I'm devastated" is my reaction to everything LMM makes, tbh. And I'm not mad about it.

[@chattyotter]

So true, I don't usually cry during movies but Hamilton, Tick, Tick, Boom!, and Encanto all hit me in the feels.

[@mysam4504]

Your editor deserves many kudos for this video. They went above and beyond. Thank you for the work you put into this!

[@christianbourdon5484]

Crazy to think about this but most people who watched this movie probably didn’t even realize how many influential Broadway faces were in this movie. Iconic

[@calebleland8390]

I'm not ashamed to admit that I cried like a baby when I watched this movie. I knew the story going in already being a fan of Jonathan and Rent, and it was beautifully done. Thanks for reacting to this amazing film.

[@nekorisky6107]

Vanessa Hudgens played Maureen in Rent Live, to me she did amazing! That could be something to react to. =)

[@corvus1374]

And Rizzo in Grease Live, where she had to perform the night after her father died, and killed it.

Got goosebumps during all the harmony parts. I will re-watch this movie soon for sure.

[@cjnogodula]

Watching her react to this movie brought back the sensation of watching this movie for the first time Yes Hannah, this movie hit pretty hard for some of us

[@shannonbuckingham9038]

Rent will always be my favourite musical, show or movie. “One Song, Glory”, “Without You” and “I’ll Cover You” are the most beautiful songs ever written, in my opinion. The movie was great! But the stage production hits different!

[@allisonbergh4429]

Omg yes, “Without You” 😭😭😭

[@NoveI_Tea]

I've been working on a book for five years and when I shared it with me parents for the first time, my dad said it was ok but he knew my next would be even better and that just broke my heart. This movie cuts deep when you devote your life to creating worlds 😥

[@parisrollins422]

That first song was all I needed to fall in love. It’s now one of my favorite movies. The acting, the vocals, the direction, the CAMEOS. The existential dread (I’m 28). This is the film I needed.

[@beasan7665]

He sounds relaxed, because he probably was when he was recording the songs in the studio, but on stage he's Jonathan Larson and not Andrew, and Jonathan Larson always looked very stressed and "crazy" during his performances, with all those veins showing in his neck and his crazy eyes...

[@thomasrudd6511]

Louder Than Words is unironically my favourite song in the film. It is so amazing

[@Goblinmoon]

I'm so glad you reacted to this. When I saw you do the other songs, I was a little heartbroken you didn't have the context. It's truly a love letter to Larson that Lin did this and all those Broadway greats came out to be part of this.

[@KIDdyW25]

I cried when I got to that narration bit about him dying before Rent's first official show. The thought of all the pain and sorrow that he went through to get to that point and he didn't get to have that majestic, closure-inducing moment where he could say to himself "I did it. I made it." when the audience would have applauded after that first show finished...good movie

[@mandlamsipa7149]

Editor appreciation - they killed it :)

[@kkmmrew]

Once again your editor is amazing and I love them. All the little side notes added were usually things I was saying myself as I watched this.

[@laurenfehr8864]

I was cracking up at all the editors added commentary, loved this video!! I was also fully sobbing by the end when I first watched this movie too!

[@wittyblonde6728]

Same 😭 it’s so funny

[@meliz2704]

Turning 30 in the 90s = old and dead Turning 30 in the 2020s = mentally dead but still alive? Sort of? Coming from a a 30 year old Andrew did such a good job in this movie! The work he put in! This was definitely an oscar snub, reminds me of Taron with Rocketman. These two definitely deserved more for their respective movies. Also been obsessed with both OSTs for way too long now

[@allisonbergh4429]

I’m 42, and trust me - 30 is still a baby nowadays.

[@Adam.Eppy86]

I’ve watched this movie 3x already and Hannah’s reaction to the surprise still left me extremely emotional all on its own. Love this movie so much and love Hannah ❤
