"In the Heights" Review
Lin-Manuel Miranda's Tony-winning musical translates beautifully to the screen.

The story of three sisters at the beginning of the 20th century who choose different paths to happiness after the death of their parents. While Ilona tries to keep the family business together and help her sisters, Jolánka and Anna see in men and marriage a way out. Three different female destinies, three archetypes and three excellent young actresses appear in Imre Mihályfi's film.
Lin-Manuel Miranda's Tony-winning musical translates beautifully to the screen.
Throughout Brendan Fraser’s career, he has played a plethora of unique, layered characters who explore the importance of not being afraid to display your emotions, something that is often seen to not be a masculine trait. This idea of regulating emotion and what traits men are able to possess creates a toxic atmosphere for men who are often told they should not cry or represent their emotions in any physical way. These characters represent that men can be joyful, emotionally conscious, and sensitive, while also representing their masculine identity instead of painting those qualities as fighting against their masculinity.
We are incredibly blessed that this movie is available for us to see, and we should take advantage of the opportunity we’ve been given.
