In the Heights What’s your Reaction? +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 Facebook Twitter Email A film version of the Broadway musical in which Usnavi, a sympathetic New York bodega owner, saves every penny every day as he imagines and sings about a better life. This adaptation of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s 2005 stage musical bursts on to the screen like a confetti cannon. Director Jon M Chu (Crazy Rich Asians) delivers a blast of sunshine, hope and hotpants. But unpeel the song-and-dance romance and escapism and there’s a socially engaged, issue-led drama under the sparkle and pizzazz. Genres:Drama, Music Director:Jon M. Chu Cast: Anthony Ramos, Corey Hawkins, Leslie Grace Videos Tweets by intheheights ☢Home » In Theaters » ⤍ More
