    beautiful sketch
    I love Andrew Garfield and this was the main motif, for me, to see this film. And real, he did a great role. And , real, my appreciation for him becomes more intense. And the admiration for great job of Lin Manuel Miranda. The film can be seen as hommage to Jonathan Larson. In same measure, it works very well as nice sketch for many anonimous lives, not very different by the lead character, between love, friendship, self acceptance, ambitious projects and need to be remarked as fair result of not doubts vocation. And a nice kick to they far to have opportunity of courage to become a real name. That last thing , the mix of confrontations, desires and dreams and frustrations , well used, well served represents the great good point of this movie. And, sure, fine exploration of the universe of shows and expressions of pure freedom. It can be perceived as a sketch about truth in its complex nuances , off course, but, in same measure, it is a magnificent musical, impressive not only for familiar ingredients of genre, for admirable energy of Andrew Garfield, for beautiful acting for supporting roles , but for high honesty. It is a very, very, very honest film, thing so rare today. And that transforms it in a personal story, easy as kick to remind the transition from 29 years old to 30, the round crisis, the decision to begin real life. Few scenes in this film are just gorgeous. So, must see it ! Not for be seduced. But for a great, profound useful perspective about life.
