@celine i mean i did think if hamilton actually didn't pull the trigger during the duel (some people said he actually didn't but it's purely your opinion since there's probably 0 records on what he exactly did) then ig his death would kinda be considered as an assisted s**side
It wasn't just the affair that Eliza was sad about. Peggy died earlier that year. To add a third tragedy onto the pain she was already feeling is so much to bear. What a strong woman.
Bruh, there’s literally all five of the stages of grief in this song: Denial: “Phillip, you would like it uptown, it’s quiet uptown…” Anger: * Eliza’s silence throughout most of the song * Bargaining: “If I could trade his life for mine…” Depression: “You knock me out, I fall apart…” Acceptance: “It’s quiet uptown…”
Jefferson, feeling pity for Hamilton: I mean, yeah, we're enemies but... I'm not heartless. I wouldn't wish this kind of pain on anyone, not even Hamilton.
One thing I love about this animatic is how it shows Eliza's upset and anger not only for Phillip dying but because of Alexander's affair. She doesn't just instantly forgive him because of their shared grief, she's hurt and even though she tries, she can't just instantly forgive him because she's still not over what he did.
Fun fact just in case you didn’t know: though you included Philip’s tombstone in your animatic, he did not have one. When you died in duels, you didn’t get a tombstone, Alexander Hamilton only got one because he contributed so much
Fun fact: For a long time, Lin struggled with writing this song, because he had never experienced a grief so unimaginable. Then he realized that the perfect theme for the song was just that-how unimaginable it is to lose one's own child. He knew how to write the rest of the song as soon as he came across the line "there are moments that the words don't reach".
Hey guys I just thought of this thing that makes this 100000x more sadder. So, Eliza probably forgave hamilton after about a year of ignoring him. Side thingy ma jiggy, the reason because she was sad in 'Blow us all away' is because her sister Peggy had died around 7-8 months prior to these events. And due to the position in Alexander's job, she barely saw him as much as she used to when they were younger. So 3 years later, she had to face the fact that Alex got shot and had to watch the man she had learned to love again after so many heartbreaks, die in her arms. IT GETS BETTER During her last years, she started having memory loss and was on the bridge on forgetting husband because of her short term memory loss that she had developed over the years.
actually, i think despite Eliza growing older, she never actually forgot Alex. She always remembered him perfectly despite her old age, even often referring to him as "My Hamilton" and always wearing a necklace he once gave her
@Milan Hookfin no actually Maria told that to Hamilton to make him feel pity for her and have an affair(?) No one knows it was true and most people thinks it's historical cuz I don't know and Maria didn't even tell Alex that James was going to hurt Susan, also James didn't force her to have an affair
"It's quiet uptown...." * Ham crumbles * Me, a heartless being, in the most ridiculous voice one can imagine: And there he goes! And also, apparently Alexander was so distraught about Philip’s death that during his funeral, he had to be held up on either side so he wouldn’t collapse Just... let that sink in.
The fact that Eliza and Alexander went through so much and she still forgave him is incredible. First, she finds out that he cheated on her for about a year in a very public way, her sister dies, her son dies and I'm sure that Alex told her what his part was in that. But she still forgave him because she loved him. That part never fails to make me cry.
I read the description and you called this cringe- FFFF HOW DARE YOU CALL THIS CRINGE- The art is on point! I love it! AAAA- And it makes me happy knowing I’m not the only animator who’s still interested in Hamilton at 2019
Him collapsing when she forgives him is everything. The hug after she forgives him is everything. The fact according to this animatic Alexander had her ring on him constantly is adorable (even though you probably didn’t think about that before had. Alexander repeating the lines she told him is everything. “She takes his hand it’s quiet uptown” is everything. I’m not okay 😭
1:34 That totally got me because I just remembered that in Dear Theodosia, one lyric is "You knock me out I fall apart" (And the song was about Philip and another girl Theodosia)
STORY TIME ok so my mom walked in asking why i was crying and i responded with " **sobbing heavily** Eliza a-and **gibberish in a sad tone** Phillip and then they **starts sobbing again** and she still forgave him! **starts crying again" *its hard talking while crying*
I love how u showed 2 things I have never seen in an animatic of this song before! 1: You showed how Eliza is, more than anything, mourning her late son but she is still so angry and disappointed that her beloved husband cheated on her and she will never truly be over it but she is ready to move on. 2: You showed Jefferson showing pity for Hamilton! OMG YASSSSSS!!!! I have literally always wanted an animatic to do that u read my freakin mind!!!
Thank you very much for your feedback, I appreciate that you have devoted your time to it. 😘😘😘 ♥ ️ ♥ ️ I tried to be in Eliza's head and imagine what she could have experienced ... I LOVE THIS WOMAN
Ok, lemme get this straight. Hamilton cheated on his wife. Lead their child to a duel that killed him. Hamilton refused every "take a break" they spoke. And Eliza still accepted his apology?!?!? Like Angelica said, never lose fact that you have been blessed with the best wife, if that didn't hit you yet Alex, I dunno what will. Eliza deserves better dude. In first burn, I would burnt Alex ALIVE
That's why Eliza is one of my favorite musical characters, she forgave such cruelty, unimaginable ... GREAT GOLDEN HEART OOOHH YESSSSS I WOULD LIKE BURN IT
“There are moments that the words don’t reach, suffering to terrible to name, you hold your child close to you, and push away the unimaginable.” I wasn’t expecting to cry today.
I love how she shows the beauty of forgiveness. Even after all of that crap she stayed by his side and the fact that HE USED THE SAME WORDS AS THAT WOULD BE ENOUGH it’s been a lot of years and the scene of him collapsing out of relief of her forgiving him shattered me to PIECES he seems so regretful of everything and I love how he for the first time ever followed Eliza’s advice and took a break and when he finally did that she could bring it in herself to forgive him I’m still not over the falling to his knees I wish that they did that in the play my heart is dying this is an amazing song I can’t
You do realize that Maria was abused by her husband & was either forced to do it or that was the only way she knew how to thank due to James Reynolds right? Though it was wrong of her,I don't think she wanted to do it.
Gabriella Ince That was the only way she knew how to repay people due to her crappy husband James Reynold and I believe when he found out he wanted her to keep doing it and he used their daughter Susan, the only thing that Maria Reynolds was living for as bait and said he’d beat Susan if she didn’t. She was married to him at 15 with little to no education, he basically beat her into submission which made her easy to manipulate. She unlike Alexander couldn’t say no while he had a choice. Yet, she got out of the marriage with her lawyer being non other than Aaron Burr, and if I am correct he beat both her and Susan but I guess he threatened to beat her more? Hope this helped lol I pity Maria so much because she didn’t have choices for anything in her life. She was remarried twice after him and Susan was a great girl quite nice and quiet.
Amazing just amazing!! I really the part when "she takes his hand. Eliza: its quiet uptown." And just seeing Hamilton break down. I always pictured that playing out like that and to see it just makes me ball
There are moments that the words don't reach There is suffering too terrible to name You hold your child as tight as you can And push away the unimaginable The moments when you're in so deep It feels easier to just swim down The Hamiltons move uptown And learn to live with the unimaginable I spend hours in the garden I walk alone to the store And it's quiet uptown I never liked the quiet before I take the children to church on Sunday A sign of the cross at the door And I pray That never used to happen before If you see him in the street Walking by himself, talking to himself, have pity Philip, you would like it uptown, it's quiet uptown He is working through the unimaginable His hair has gone grey He passes every day They say he walks the length of the city You knock me out, I fall apart Can you imagine? Look at where we are Look at where we started I know I don't deserve you, Eliza But hear me out That would be enough If I could spare his life If I could trade his life for mine He'd be standing here right now And you would smile and that would be enough I don't pretend to know The challenges we're facing I know there's no replacing what we've lost And you need time But I'm not afraid I know who I married Just let me stay here by your side That would be enough If you see him in the street Walking by her side, talking by her side, have pity Eliza, do you like it uptown? It's quiet uptown He is trying to do the unimaginable See them walking in the park, long after dark Taking in the sights of the city Look around, look around, Eliza They are tryna do the unimaginable There are moments that the words don't reach There's a grace too powerful to name We push away what we can never understand We push away the unimaginable They are standing in the garden Alexander by Eliza's side She takes his hand It's quiet uptown Forgiveness, can you imagine? Forgiveness, can you imagine? If you see him in the street Walking by her side, talking by her side, have pity They are going through the unimaginable
Can't take it anymore. I've been binge watching hamilton animated scenes this past few days. And it's so hard to take it out on my system. I badly want to see Lin-Manuel Miranda and gave thanks to him for creating this one.
That was amazing! I almost forgot about how good this song, and with your art! It’s just made in unbelievably good!❤️❤️ awesome job! I love you way you draw eyes!
Oh thank you! I actually freaked out when I realized you commented on my video because I am such a big fan of your artwork and I have been subscribed for a really long time! So glad you’re posting again!❤️
@@mayanimation6696 I am very pleased that someone appreciates it, I also love your work. It was just a little longer with that, because I did not have my own idea.
Poor Eliza, i hate how everyone is like: Oh, poor hamilton, while he cheated on her, killed his own son and was flirting with her sister while being married. He isnt a poor soul here.
I'm kinda glad that she makes these. You can see her/his/they're style is similar to SZIN's who stops ham animations. I'm glad to see what it would be like.
You know what’s sadder, *PHILIP DIDN’T EVEN GET A MARKED GRAVE* (Also here’s the history of why Philips grave didn’t get marked so i don’t get attacked: basically dueling wasn’t a great thing to do sooo they unmarked his grave-)
*Shatter and Clatter* Oh don't mind that noise that's just my heart breaking for the Hamilton's! You did an amazing job with this, the spirit of Philip and the symbolism is just perfect.
Lyrics: There are moments that the words don't reach There is suffering too terrible to name You hold your child as tight as you can And push away the unimaginable The moments when you're in so deep It feels easier to just swim down The Hamiltons move uptown And learn to live with the unimaginable I spend hours in the garden I walk alone to the store And it's quiet uptown I never liked the quiet before I take the children to church on Sunday A sign of the cross at the door And I pray That never used to happen before If you see him in the street, walking by Himself, talking to himself, have pity Philip, you would like it uptown, it's quiet uptown He is working through the unimaginable His hair has gone grey, he passes every day They say he walks the length of the city You knock me out, I fall apart Can you imagine?

i love this!! but the only thing i don't like is 2:23 Maria Reynolds is definitely misunderstood. Why is she the demon when Alexander was the one who couldn't say no? Maria was abused by her husband and I think the reason why she did not want Alexander to leave is because she finally felt loved for the first time. We have different opinions, and this is mine. Soooooo, y'all are free to state yours edit: also, Maria definitely felt sorry for Alexander and Eliza at that time. James blackmailed Alexander and Maria told Alexander to just pay him so that Alexander can stay with her and for Alexander to also not loose his fame and dignity. And when Alexander released the pamphlet, I think that Maria also felt apologetic to Eliza.
Historical records are very scarce as to whether Reynolds actually beat his wife, or if it was just a lie to soften Hamilton. She also lied about having left James, which aside from being despicable on its own, opens the door for the possibility of more dishonesty occurring.
I read it as "It's Quite Updog." And immediately thought about this Hamilfan comic I saw that was like: Eliza: How was your day, Alexander? Hamilton: Fine, but it was quite updog. Eliza: What's updog? Hamilton: Nothing, what's up with you? Herc and Laff in the corner: OHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
The thing about this is that Alex was already no doubt terrified about his loved ones dying or leaving (His cousin, his mother, his father, his brother and basically everyone in Nevis) and that was made worse by being in the revolution and his relationship with Laurens, who wasn't responding to his letters before he died. He most definitely suffered from PTSD, and seeing Eliza reject him and his son dying in front of him broke him down so much that he must have been on the brink
wow, jak pięknie Ci wyszło! za serducho mnie Twój animatic złapał, bardzo też moment kiedy Thomas widzi Hamiltona przez okno (01:15), ogólnie nigdy się do żadnego animatica z It’s Quiet Uptown tak nie zwyłam. masz przepiękną kreskę, powodzenia w dalszej twórczości!❤️
This one makes me cry every time, it’s hard to forgive someone who has hurt you so badly. But to be able to work through that and the unimaginable pain of losing your child. Is something that is beyond me. ❤
"A child who loses is his parents is called an orphan A wife who loses her husband is called a widow There is no word for a perant who losses a child because it's too painful" -cant remember where I heard it
Jedna z piękniejszych animacji z Hamiltona z najpiękniejszej piosenki z 2 aktu ❤️ Naprawdę zawsze podziwiam ludzi którym w ogóle się chcę i jeszcze robią to w tak piękny sposób ❤️ Uwielbiam tu dosłownie wszystko i zawsze nie umiem się rozpisywać w takich momentach choć zwykle bym mogła pisać 2 strony więc może po prostu powiem że jestem wzruszona i że masz wielki talent oraz że podziwiam oczywiście ❤️
And no wonder. Jefferson had lost 5 of his children before he went to France. He only had 2 children left when Phillip died. He felt what Alex is going through five times, no wonder he's upset.
