Hamilton
A handful of shots and things I can’t stop thinking about from this filmed version:
- That one shot of Renee Elise Goldsberry looking out over the audience singing 🎶32,000 troops in New York Harbor🎶 at the beginning of Right Hand Man
- This one shot of Phillipa Soo towards the end of Helpless where she’s on the turntable with her veil on and she just looks so happy and joyful and it makes my heart soar
- The way Goldsberry sings 🎶to the briiide🎶 at the beginning of Satisfied
- Jonathan Groff for the entirety of the I Know Him reprise
- Daveed Diggs’ spin and hair flip immediately following “this is the difference, this kid is out!”
- Christopher Jackson’s note perfect performance in literally every single scene he’s in, my kind of acting right there
- Leslie Odom, Jr’s final “wait for it” as he puts his hand up
- 🎶I hear wailing in theeee streeeets🎶
- Jasmine Cephas-Jones for the entirety of Say No To This
- The “eye of the hurricane” staging, goddamn perfection
- The ensemble sounding so good and kicking all kinds of vocal ass during both History Has It’s Eyes on You and Yorktown
