从In the heights 第一分钟起, 林聚聚特色说唱、华丽音乐扑面而来。。。整个15分钟浓浓纽约拉丁社区风情通过欢乐、愉悦的歌舞展示在观众眼前。。。。我第一个心中的想法是。。沃哦 如果说舞台上的是2D的话,这次的音乐电影就是3D 音乐剧。。。。舞台的歌声、舞蹈、戏剧效果应有尽有。。。。再来,电视电影镜头下故事情节切换的节奏感,剧情人物细节如道具、表情特写。。。以及纽约街头那种真实自然的文化特色。。。如神来之笔一般给原来就惊艳的音乐剧又一次升华的机会*・゜゚・*:.。..。.:*・'(*゚▽゚*)'・*:.。. .。.:*・゜゚・* 有惊喜。。。如阿凡达首次上映是的感觉。。。音乐剧还可以这样哒☆*:.。. o(≧▽≦)o .。.:*☆

当林巨巨 Lin Manuel Miranda 和 John M. Chu 音乐剧 “In The Heights” 是今年必须看的音乐剧哦。。。。2007年本剧推出是引起轰动, 在转战百老汇剧场后横扫了包括最佳音乐剧在内的四项托尼奖项。。。。 “In The Heights”以其华丽、深具感染力的音乐为观众展示了一个有关社区和文化身份、引人入胜的故事。。。。

尽管演员阵容中没有特别有名的,但是大多是精挑细选、唱功卓越。 我们在这部音乐电视电和影中科院找到汉密尔顿里的Rap 音乐,编曲完美。。。更值得一提的是电影还有教育意义。。。。如Spike Lee的 《Do The Right Thing 》一样,这部作品充满了拉丁民族精神,讲述了他们心怀自豪感、信心满满、积极与贫困斗争的故事。

In the Heights doesn't forge the story of the changing face of New York as a battle. However, change is undergoing. As local businessman Kevin Rosario (Smits) quotes, the Heights was an Irish neighborhood before it was squeezed into part of Dominican Republic. Some businesses has been forced out, while others, say bodega, are closing. Usnavi (Ramos) has his dream of returning to the Dominican Republic, in order to reopen his father's old beachfront bar: The bodega, he tells the beach kids, was only meant to be a brief stop gap, but also an existence sign of a decade. The personnel is telling stories about his old block in New York's Hispanic Washington Heights as a flashback: his best friend, Benny (Hawkins), working at the neighborhood cab company; and Nina (Grace), from the block who got into Stanford carrying all the hopes and dreams of the community with her, and is buckling under the weight; and Vanessa (Barrera), working at the nail salon but desperate to move Downtown, past 14th Street, where her dreams of breaking into fashion are hanging by a thread.

There's no villain hanging over In the Heights, no one to really blame for anything. Instead, this is like a Shakespearian problem play in vibrant song-and-dance form, as the clock ticks down to a blackout. After all, what's NYC in the summer without someone sweating on a stoop? But the real countdown is in Usnavi's planned departure, and Nina returning to school, and Vanessa getting that apartment. If they get their dreams, then they leave the Heights.
