Hamilton: An Excellent Musical

Christy 2022-08-19 06:48:53

Hamilton didn't just write about Hamilton, the musical brought the characters in the history books to the spotlight, and the audience watched not only the musical, but a real history. There seems to be an experiment showing that video makes people more impressive than words, and when added to music, it makes those thoughtful, powerful words that once existed even more shocking.

I think the soundtrack of an excellent movie must be excellent, and the music and the plot are mutually accomplished. Undoubtedly, the musical deepens the connection between the two. What makes "Hamilton" so good to me is its melody, its lines in the play. The two complement each other, and the melody and plot make the two small hours not boring at all. And the plot is very good. It comes from a great man, a great American founding father in his life. When it is put on the big screen, the readability and depth of the story itself are beyond doubt.

In my opinion, each character has its own characteristics and is no longer flat and abstract. Our never enough protagonist Hamilton, the kind but powerful Elisa, Hamilton's best friends, old enemies, children... The history of these group portraits, the glorious achievements, and the regrets left make people cry.

Hamilton quotes

  • King George: They say the price of my war's not a price that they're willing to pay/Insane/You cheat with the French/Now I'm fighting with France and with Spain/I'm so blue.

    [as he stomps his foot, the stage lights turn from red to blue]

    King George: I thought that we made an arrangement when you went away/You were mine to subdue/Well, even despite our estrangement, I've got a small query for you/What comes next? You've been freed/Do you know how hard it is to lead?/You're on your own/Awesome, wow.

    [audience laughter]

    King George: Do you have a clue what happens now? Oceans rise, empires fall/It's much harder when it's all your call/All alone across the sea/When your people say they hate you/Don't come crawling back to me.

  • Aaron Burr: Alexander joins forces with James Madison and John Jay to write a series of essays defending the new United States Constitution entitled "The Federalist Papers". The plan was to write a total of 25 essays, the work divided evenly between the three men. In the end, they wrote 85 essays in the span of six months. John Jay got sick after writing five. James Madison wrote 29. Hamilton wrote the *other 51*!
