⚠️HAMILTON THEORY⚠️

So, so, SO

Y'all know and love the musical Hamilton, right? Well I do. And idk if this theory is *entirely* original, so my apologies if it isn't. BUT:

Angelica and Elizabeth Schuyler, both have iconic songs which highlight their feelings for our controversial bastard orphan Alexander. Eliza uses the phrase "Helpless" throughout the song frequently (it's also the name lol), and Angelica uses "Satisfied" (ALSO the name of the song).

BUT, stay with me, the two eldest Schuyler sisters aren't the only ones who uses these phrases.

In Say No to This, Maria Reynolds says "I'm helpless", almost like a nod to Eliza's song.

Whereas in Meet me Inside, John Laurens says "I'm satisfied" after his duel with Charles Lee. Now, while this may be a coincidence, as it's fitting that it rhymes with "shot him in the side" (referring to Lee's current condition), it's still something to consider.

My thought is this:

The characters in Hamilton that quote or say the word 'Helpless' in their respective songs, are those who openly showed affection and expressed their love to Alexander Hamilton. Those being Eliza Hamilton, his wife, and Maria Reynolds, the one whom he had a "torrid affair" with, as that became public later on.

But, the characters who had used the term 'Satisfied' were the ones who never broadcasted their love, only really admired him from afar or never spoke about their relationship. And who were those, you may ask? None other than John Laurens, Hamilton's close friend who many shippers are speculating an affair between the two, as well as Angelica Schuyler, who talked about her repressed feelings in her spotlight song.

Movie Musical Divas Tournament: Round 1

Those who played at ghost singing, and those who lived it

Debbie Reynolds (1932-2016): Kathy Selden in Singin’ in the Rain* (1952) | Molly Brown in The Unsinkable Molly Brown (1964) | Judy in I Love Melvin (1953) *Dubbed in two songs by Betty Noyes, high notes and taps dubbed throughout.

"Part of one the most iconic movie musicals of all time (this movie is legit studied as the quintessential movie of the genre), held her own with G*ne K*lly and Donald O’Connor at just 19! Nominated for an Oscar in Molly Brown for portraying an equally badass woman. AND mother to The Carrie Fisher!" - @kingscatt

Marni Nixon (1930-2016): Deborah Kerr’s character in The King and I (1956) | Maria in West Side Story (1961) (she also was the voice of Anita during the Tonight Quintet) | Eliza in My Fair Lady (1964) | Sister Sophia in The Sound of Music (1965) | Marilyn Monroe's high notes in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953)

"Time Magazine called her “The Ghostess with the Mostest” for her contributions to musical movies. If you like movie musicals from the sixties, chances are you’ve been listening to Marni Nixon the whole time and didn’t even know. Her career at Disney, while not relevant to the poll, is quite impressive as well. She had singing roles in Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, and Mulan. Without Marni, some of the most popular movies of the sixties would have sounded very different." @anton-wyzek

"She was a classic beauty and a bright spot of sunshine. Stole the scene every time! Everyone knows her song Good Morning from Singin in the Rain. Also she is the grandma in halloweentown and carrie fisher's mom! She is a stand out!" - @scifikimmi

Marni Nixon:

"I don't care that she is almost never in front of the camera. Without her, My Fair Lady, The King and I and West Side Story would be completely different. She deserves kudos and love for helping bring the characters to life. Plus we got to see her as sister sophia in sound of music, so there's that." - anonymous

I watched Hamilton!!! Here's my thoughts but disclaimer that I know nothing of America's history since I'm not American. So all my opinion is based only on the play.

- My favourite song in the play is definitely Alexander Hamilton, Satisfied, Burned, The Room Where it Happen, Say No to This (and probably so much more but i don't remember the title)

- the actor that played Lafayette and Thomas Jefferson is my absolute favourite. He's so funny and lively and so likable no matter whether he's the antagonist or not. He ate every of his screen time and his singing and rapping is top notch.

- I adore Eliza. I love this woman so much, I would bring down a nation for her. She is THE mother.

- I have mixed feelings with Angelica because on one hand she was such a badass and so kind but on the other why is she thirsting over her sister's husband? (I really think she and Hamilton were emotionally cheating together even though it was never clarified).

- I wish we see more of Peggy. Her vocal is absolutely insane, it's so beautiful. I heard that she was the same actress that played Maria Reynold and that's just insane! She sounds like a totally different person and again, her vocals in the song are so addicting and alluring.

- Eliza and Philip's bond is so beautiful. Eliza (hilariously) and so wholesome-ly beat boxing and supporting Philip is just agghhhh!!

- So I cried when Philip died, what's it for you?

- I couldn't remember the act one that much since I watched it a while ago but I know that I don't understand a thing about war but vibing with the song anyway.

- oh! And "call me son one more time!" Just tore my hearts little with the raw delivery.

- The King is so iconic, like a legit legend there. He slayed so hard with that stupidly gigantic crown of his, I absolutely love him. The actor really gives his everything. I just love how he was so psychotic and happy go lucky at the same time. He's so theatrical and hilarious.

- I stand by that every parliament should debate by a rap battle from now on.

- Burr is such a bastard but I couldn't hate him because I feel so bad for him the whole time. Like the guy just wants to be successful, someone gives him a pat on the head, he deserves it 😭

- ngl, I hope Hamilton dies after cheating on Eliza

- Eliza really couldn't catch a break. Her husband cheated on her, her son died and then her husband died next. Like??? Girl is going through it.

- why do people back then solve every problem with shooting each other? If that happens in modern time, I'd be a serial killer by now.

- I love Hamilton more when he mellows out and he redeems himself enough that I cried when he died especially in such a stupid circumstance. I think he deserves better honestly.

- that last scene of Eliza and Hamilton, knowing what would happen, tears me up. He would never deserve her but I love their relationship at that point.

- The stage performance of everyone from the main cast to the backup dancer is absolutely amazing!! All of them are so great, seamless and incredible. Watching all of them is like watching magic unfold.

hii

in the heights/hamilton characters as different aesthetics (preppy, goth, etc.)

this is such a great question! ok, let's think about it. so i decided to pair them up (one ith + one (or two) hamilton character(s) with similar vibes i may also drop some quotes to prove my point) and here's how i see it:

usnavi/alexander (it's all about the legacy they left with me, it's destiny/what is a legacy? it's planting seeds in a garden you never get to see + both the caribbean immigrants + both orphans + both can't shut up sometimes i could write a whole essay about it actually): 90s (i don't have any explanation for this one, i just want to see it cause it's a vibe)

vanessa/angelica (if i'm in the mood, it will not be with some dude who is whistling cause he has nothing to say/i'm looking for a mind at work + so this is what it feels like to match wits with someone at your level you see what i did here, right?): DARK ACADEMIA (oh i love this one, i could even make them a moodboard lol)

nina/eliza: (hey guys, it's me! the biggest disappointment you know BUT nina please believe that when you find your way again you're gonna change the world/i'm erasing myself from the narrative BUT i live another 50 years, it's not enough + and when my time is up, have i done enough? cause in the end they both have done so much, ok? you know what i'm trying to say also this post is a mess): PREPPY (idk i just think it's their vibe)

benny/mulligan (idk, for some reason i was just thinking about how benny was showing off his skills in benny's dispatch and mulligan was showing off... his pants also yes that is the only reason lol): SKATER (do i even need to explain?)

sonny/laurens/philip (they all just have the same young energy for me and i'm not gonna give you any quotes here, it's just something you can see with your own eyes when you watch them on the stage): KIDCORE (i literally had no idea something like this exists but you can google it and it's a perfect choice for them)

kevin/jefferson (ok so look, kevin and camila are married to each other and jefferson and madison are also like a married couple in my head i don't know what else i can say): NORMCORE (just how i see it)

camila/madison (look up): LIGHT ACADEMIA (idk it's just the vibe bro)

daniela/lafayette (mostly because they are both iconic and come on we all love them so much also daniela works in the salon and layafette has majestic hair but it's unimportant): ART HOE (it's just perfect for them, ok?)

carla/peggy (like can't you just see it? carla clearly doesn't have much to say and peggy... and peggy. they are both cute tho! and they are both there just for fun!): SOFT GIRL (cause like i said they are just cute!)

piragua guy/king george (hey, pana! i run this town!/soon you'll see, you'll remember you belong to me! come on they are basically the same person, piragua guy is the king of washington heights): BADDIE (i'm literally crying right now, it's too damn funny)

abuela claudia/george washington (that was abuela, she's not really my abuela but she practically raised me, this corner is her escuela/your wife needs you alive, son, i need you alive + daddy's calling parent vibes lol): COTTAGECORE (it is what it is)

graffiti pete/burr (listen, i don't even have any quotes here, it's just the fact that usnavi hates graffiti pete and hammy and burr are enemies lol you see what i did here): GOTH (just because this is so fucking funny in my head lol imagine aaron burr as goth)

maria reynolds (i don't have a pair for her oops): EARLY 2000s (because of course)

The Woman Gold

Woman in Gold, directed by Simon Curtis and written by Alexi Kaye Campbell, is a powerful biographical drama starring Helen Mirren, Ryan Reynolds, and Daniel Brühl. The film, released on April 1, 2015, in the US and April 10, 2015, in the UK, tells the incredible true story of Maria Altmann's fight to reclaim Gustav Klimt's iconic painting, Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I, which was stolen by the Nazis.

Plot Highlights:

Set in the 1990s, the story follows Maria Altmann (Helen Mirren), an elderly Jewish refugee in Los Angeles who discovers letters revealing her family's lost art treasures. Among these is the famous painting of her aunt, Adele Bloch-Bauer, known as "Woman in Gold." Determined to reclaim the artwork, Maria teams up with Randy Schoenberg (Ryan Reynolds), a young lawyer, to take on the Austrian government in a legal battle that spans nearly a decade.

The film interweaves Maria’s painful past during the Anschluss and the Nazi occupation of Vienna with her modern-day quest for justice. Maria and Schoenberg face significant challenges as they navigate the complexities of international law and art restitution. Their journey takes them from Austria’s bureaucratic obstacles to a dramatic Supreme Court ruling in the United States.

Key Moments:

Maria’s poignant discovery of the stolen artwork and her decision to pursue justice.

The tense legal battles and the unexpected support from an art book’s cover image.

The emotional climax where the arbitration panel in Austria rules in Maria’s favor, leading to the painting’s return.

Ultimately, Maria’s perseverance pays off as the painting is returned and displayed at Ronald Lauder’s New York gallery, honoring her family’s legacy and the memory of those who suffered during the Nazi regime.
