An unforgettable cinematic stage performance, the filmed version of the original Broadway production of “Hamilton” combines the best elements of live theater, film and streaming to bring the cultural phenomenon to homes around the world for a thrilling, once-in-a-lifetime experience. “Hamilton” is the story of America then, told by America now. Featuring a score that blends hip-hop, jazz, R&B and Broadway, “Hamilton” has taken the story of American founding father Alexander Hamilton and created a revolutionary moment in theatre—a musical that has had a profound impact on culture, politics, and education. Filmed at The Richard Rodgers Theatre on Broadway in June of 2016, the film transports its audience into the world of the Broadway show in a uniquely intimate way. With book, music, and lyrics by Lin-Manuel Miranda and direction by Thomas Kail, “Hamilton” is inspired by the book “Alexander Hamilton” by Ron Chernow and produced by Thomas Kail, Lin-Manuel Miranda and Jeffrey Seller, with Sander Jacobs and Jill Furman serving as executive producers. The 11-time-Tony Award®-, GRAMMY Award®-, Olivier Award- and Pulitzer Prize-winning stage musical stars: Daveed Diggs as Marquis de Lafayette/Thomas Jefferson; Renée Elise Goldsberry as Angelica Schuyler; Jonathan Groff as King George; Christopher Jackson as George Washington; Jasmine Cephas Jones as Peggy Schuyler/Maria Reynolds; Lin-Manuel Miranda as Alexander Hamilton; Leslie Odom, Jr. as Aaron Burr; Okieriete Onaodowan as Hercules Mulligan/James Madison; Anthony Ramos as John Laurens/Philip Hamilton; and Phillipa Soo as Eliza Hamilton.

“Hamilton” premieres on July 3, 2020 around the world, streaming only on Disney+.

Who here was Satisfied with the Hamilfilm?! 😁

[orlyme]

What about the costumes! They changed with the eras, both the men’s jackets lengths get shorter and the neckline and cuts of the women’s dresses, showing time passing and new fashion in a new culture. Loved that little detail!

[teumelilymata]

Even if someone doesn't like hamilton or musicals. You cant disagree it is a work of art, and every layer is thought out so carefully

[JustBethTrying]

I noticed that when Phillip sings to Alexander while counting in French he never gets to 10. A perfect foreshadowing of the duels.

[skylar]

I noticed during “we know” Mariah Reynolds was watching from the side

[venus]

In Lauren’s interlude you can see Lafayette and Mulligan reading their letters on the platform

[rwbyemerald]

In Alexander Hamilton, the line “We fought with him” were said by Mulligan and Lafayette because they fought with him in battle but those actors also played Jefferson and Madison who literally fought with him through multiple disagreements. In the line, “Me, I died for him.” was said by the actor who plays both John Laurens and Philip Hamilton who both died in Hamilton’s honor. And in the line, “Me I loved him” was said by all the Schuyler sisters but Peggy never loved him. However, the actor who played Peggy also played Maria Reynolds who Hamilton had an affair with.

This was probably already said or people already knew about this but I didn’t catch on until way later so give me some credit 😂

[rozenkristal]

After Philip’s death, Alexander grabs Eliza’s hand as she mourns. But Eliza almost immediately pulls away. It’s a tiny detail, but it makes their scene in It’s Quiet Uptown all the more heartbreakingly precious.

MUSICAL FUN FACT: At the end of "Say No To This, " Hamilton sings the line "Nobody needs to know." which is an homage to the musical "The Last Five Years" which had a song called "Nobody Needs to Know" about a man cheating on his wife. Lin Manuel Miranda asked for Jason Robert Brown's permission to include the line in Hamilton. In Lin's Spotify playlist of songs he used as an inspiration to write Hamilton, "Nobody Needs to Know" is there.

everyone: singing satisfied in the fast part is so hard!!
daveed in guns and ships: 👁👄👁

[dianaenelespacio]

Did anyone else notice all of Peggy's looks and escapes with Hamilton's friends on the back during "Helpless" and "Satisfied"?
(She danced with Mulligan, escaped with John, had a "moment" with Lafayette during the wedding and exchanged looks with him during Angelica's toast).

[mickeycasagrande]

also not shown: in the Lauren’s Interlude after Dear Theodosia, Hercules Mulligan and Lafayette are on the balcony each reading their own letters as Eliza reads hers to Hamilton. Lafayette hangs his head in sadness and Hercules takes a swig out of a flask when it’s read that he died

[Calvero]

I noticed that Hamilton's clothes go from colored coats when he's younger to darker when he starts making bad life decisions, like the Reynolds affair, which lead to his death.

[MortMe]

Also can we give a hats-off to the company and all the dancing they had to do? Maybe I'm just used to musicals with less dancing like Les Mis and Sweeney (from what I've seen), but all that jumping and floor work, usually while singing? Mad props.

[francoisnze-maure]

It's really cool of the next King George to let Jonathan take on the role for the movie

[David_Barnert]

Here’s a musical oddity from the show: Every songwriter since Claudio Monteverdi (who lived 400 years ago) knows that when the lyrics refer to something going up the pitch of the notes should go up, and when the lyrics refer to something going down the pitch of the notes should go down. A rare exception is pointed out in the 2013 film, “Saving Mr. Banks” about the making of “Mary Poppins, ” where a problem is solved by putting a high note on the word “Down” in the song “A Spoonful of Sugar.”

Even more exceptionally, in rapid succession, “Hamilton” breaks both parts of the rule in the “You’ll Be Back” songs that King George sings. In the recurring phrase, “Oceans rise, Empires fall, ” the low note is on the word “rise” and the high note is on the word “fall.”

[dianaenelespacio]

In "Best of Wives and Best of Women" Hamilton covers the letter he's writing so that Eliza doesn't see it

Hercules mulligan being the flower girl gives me life!

[minihope]

When Phillip Hamilton showed up for the first time, my mom said "Hey the little boy looks just like his other Daddy" and honestly I've never respected her more than in that moment.
