Hamilton: 10 Moments To Revisit From The Disney+ Film — Plus, Grade It!

Attention all theater kids, American history buffs and parents who signed up for Disney+ just so the little ones could watch Frozen 2:

The Hamilton-ing is upon us.

A filmed performance of the Tony-winning musical hit the streaming service Friday. Originally planned for an Oct. 15, 2021, theatrical release, the movie's rollout was tweaked earlier this year in light of the ongoing global coronavirus pandemic.

Because we've been obsessed with Lin-Manuel Miranda's magnum opus since its off-Broadway days at New York's Public Theater, we couldn't wait for it (wait for it) to become widely available — so we could share our favorite parts of the show.

Whether you're watching for the first time or the 101st time, here are a collection of moments you're going to want to view over and over. They include an unguarded boogie, some unexpected beatboxing, a section of choreography that rewinds itself and a scene that even devotees of the original Broadway cast recording don't know by heart... yet.

Who says Disney magic can't also be sprinkled on a historical musical about the first Secretary of the Treasury? Before the Hamilton film begins, it's preceded by Disney's classic castle intro, this time with fireworks that are perfectly lined up with the "Ten Duel Commandments" music. If it were possible to get us more excited about the filmed production awaiting us, this very cool title card manages to do it.

After Philip Schuyler gives Hamilton his blessing to wed Eliza during Act I's "Helpless," watch for the sweet dance moves star Lin-Manuel Miranda performs in celebration — and how quickly they're shut down when Hamilton's future father-in-law notices.

The one-two punch of "Helpless" and "Satisfied," which reveals both Eliza and Angelica Schuyler's love for Hamilton, is one of the musical's most memorable sequences — especially when you realize how intricately detailed the latter song's "rewind" section is. As the action returns to the night Hamilton met the Schuyler sisters, the performers literally rewind their movements, too.

"All of 'Helpless' goes counterclockwise," choreographer Andy Blankenbuehler previously noted to The Washington Post. "So when you rewind in 'Satisfied,' and for just a moment you go clockwise, you understand it. When they dance in 'Helpless' and 'Satisfied,' the same dance movement matches both lyrics." As you do some rewinding of your own, take note of how Eliza and Alexander's wedding takes place in reverse, including the kiss they share as they move across the stage in the opposite direction.

Even when the musical was in previews on Broadway, crowds cheered at the moment in Act I's "Yorktown (The World Turned Upside Down)" when Lafayette and Hamilton agree: "Immigrants, we get the job done." Miranda says the reaction was a surprise. "I never anticipated that the audience response would drown out the next few lines every night," he writes in Hamilton: The Revolution. "Why does it get such a delighted response? Because it's true."

Even if you know the original Broadway cast recording forwards and backwards, you probably won't be able to sing along with the scene where Hamilton learns of comrade John Laurens' death: Miranda purposefully kept it off the album, to make the live performance a tiny bit more special. "To me, his death is the greatest What-If? in American history," Miranda writes in Hamilton: The Revolution. "A voice for emancipation from a surviving Revolutionary War veteran and a favorite of Washington: We'll never know what could have been."

There's so much to love about the first Cabinet rap battle between Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson. The way Hamilton mocks Jefferson's "What'd I Miss" dance moves? Yes. Jefferson dropping his mic into James Madison's waiting hand? Absolutely. But this filmed version also allows us to notice George Washington's delightful reactions to the war of words unfolding before him. At first, he's tickled by the way Hamilton drags Jefferson's time at Monticello, then slowly grows more concerned as Hamilton flies off the handle. There's a lot happening in this scene, and it's easy to forget Washington is there — but much like history, you'll have your eyes on him next time you watch.

Eliza Hamilton is a woman of many talents: She plays piano! Speaks French! And beatboxes when you least expect it! While son Philip sheepishly debuts a rap in "Take a Break," Eliza serves as his musical accompaniment, and the only thing more enjoyable than her committed performance is Alexander's stunned reaction when he realizes his wife is keeping the beat.

There's a lot going on in Act II's "The Room Where It Happens," aka an examination of Aaron Burr's frenzied obsession with always being just a little too far away from power to access it for himself. Just in case you were so mesmerized that you missed it the first time, go back and make sure to pay special attention to Leslie Odom Jr.'s seemingly effortless hop and then jump off the table, both executed with nary a hiccup in his golden tone.

As Miranda revealed in June, the Hamilton film was only allowed one utterance of "F—k": Any more, and the Motion Picture Association of America would have slapped an automatic R rating on the production. Thus, Hercules Mulligan's F-bomb in "Yorktown" is muted, while "Southern motherf—kin' Democratic Republicans!" in "Washington on Your Side" is covered by a record scratch. Did you notice the censorship while watching? Did you find it seamless, or a tad distracting? (Our take: The record scratch is a bit jarring, no?)

King George is only on stage for a few minutes across Hamilton's two acts, but portrayer Jonathan Groff makes the most of every second. That brief pout in "You'll Be Back"? The foot stomp in "What Comes Next"? His deadpan "Awesome. Wow." delivery? We're living for all of it. (Even the spit that flies off Groff's lips as he sings. That's commitment, folks.) Our favorite King George moment, though, has to be his unrestrained dance moves during "The Reynolds Pamphlet" as the monarch delights in Hamilton's downfall. Even British royalty can let their powdered wigs down once in a while!
