Emma and Alyssa's Love Story in Full | The Prom

- They just wanted to dance with each other at prom. Here's the full love story of Emma (played by Jo Ellen Pellman) and Alyssa (Ariana DeBose) from the spectacular new musical film, The Prom.
The Prom follows Dee Dee Allen (three-time Academy Award winner Meryl Streep) and Barry Glickman (Tony Award winner James Corden) who are New York City stage stars with a crisis on their hands: their expensive new Broadway show is a major flop that has suddenly flatlined their careers. Meanwhile, in small-town Indiana, high school student Emma Nolan (newcomer Jo Ellen Pellman) is experiencing a very different kind of heartbreak: despite the support of the high school principal (Keegan-Michael Key), the head of the PTA (Kerry Washington) has banned her from attending the prom with her girlfriend, Alyssa (Ariana DeBose). When Dee Dee and Barry decide that Emma's predicament is the perfect cause to help resurrect their public images, they hit the road with Angie (Academy Award winner Nicole Kidman) and Trent (Andrew Rannells), another pair of cynical actors looking for a professional lift. But when their self-absorbed celebrity activism unexpectedly backfires, the foursome find their own lives upended as they rally to give Emma a night where she can truly celebrate who she is.
Directed by Ryan Murphy, The Prom is the big-hearted film adaptation of the Tony-nominated Broadway musical. Screenplay by Bob Martin and Chad Beguelin.

Emma and Alyssa's Love Story in Full | The Prom
/ netflixuk
A group of down-on-their-luck Broadway stars shake up a small Indiana town as they rally behind a teen who just wants to attend prom with her girlfriend.
The scene where the mom tells her daughter that she doesn't want her to have a hard life and the daughter replies with, "it's already hard." Hit me like a bus, especially being a poc and a gay woman. I cried for hours.
Exactly, same here poc and gay woman.
@@mickeyrosa7226 same here... being a woman...a lesbian and a poc... having to deal with racism...homophobia and sexism...🥲
@@andria8279 😭😭 it's so hard and lonely being a lesbian
I'm a Brazilian woman who came out when I was 16 much to the consternation of my Father and Grandparents seven years later none of them attended my wedding but I was surrounded by people who love and accepted me for who I am. You are right it is so very hard to come out but when it settles down and I does settle down you will be surrounded by people who love and accept you for who you are. Be strong and be happy everyone.
@@KimFebriany just remember there are people who support you
0:37
Emma: "Note to self: Don't be gay in Indiana."
Me: Instantly thinks of Robin in Hawkins, Indiana. (Stranger Things)
Facts
They'd be best friends
I thought of max, we all know she's bi
@@BassicallyKiyash Yes. Hell, yessss!
@@ColegGwentvideos yep
For those here who don’t understand why others are complaining: the movie cut quite a bit of Emma and Alyssa’s dialogue in scenes, even verses from their songs were removed. And yes, the movie is about Emma and the Broadway actors but the movie added things to the film they added subplots for Deedee and Barry, they didn’t add more for characters like Emma, Alyssa or the other actors. Just Deedee and Barry. It feels like the filmmakers just wanted to show off that they got Meryl Streep and James Cordon to be in their movie when instead they could’ve given more focus on the lesbian couple (you know, the couple the movie was centered around).
The prom fake out will always kill me. Heartwrenching.
That hurt my heart too much and I cried for 3 hours
It's based on a true story too.
@@deaftone311 I know. Ugh, what a world we still live in.
Me too..
That scene was sooooo messed uppp ugh all of it hurt. That scene really proved who was really there for her (Barry,Angie,Trent (kinda), and the principal) and who was just there for the publicity (Dee-Dee).
12 minutes in a 2 hr 12 min movie, why was their love story so sidelined when it should be the main focus?? And these 12 minutes aren’t even completely about Emma and Alyssa’s love story! I really liked the movie but this was definitely the most disappointing aspect. Its almost like they didn’t want to show the Lesbians in their own movie.
It’s not much different in the show.
Agree, if the original material was like this I would have used the perks of a movie to give them more interaction some way.
Exactly, I might have loved this movie more had Emma and Alyssa actually featured more, but instead they felt like afterthoughts in what was supposed to be THEIR movie! 🙄
Some songs are cut these aren't their FULL scenes. Just watch a different movie gahhhhd
Agree
Imagine if this two hour movie was actually about these two, instead of just twelve minutes in a sea of.....whatever was going on with Meryl and James? Aaaah, one can dream...
the story has always been about them and the broadway actors.
Watch the play, then maybe you’ll appreciate the fact that this movie was actually pretty accurate to the original story. The plot is about “These Two” but it tells the story of several characters
Read the book it's great and about the girls
Yaaaa
@@hcousl8326 wher can you read this magical book
This is like Disney but even gayer
Gayer
@@aliceswonderland1056 thank you
Based on some of the cast, yes. We even have Bertram!
Yeah, exactly.
True
If there is one thing I hate. It’s Alyssa’s mom seemingly getting forgiving. The ONLY good thing I take from this is that Alyssa didn’t have to go through losing a mother as well as her father. She needed reassurance more than her mother needed redemption
She didn’t get redeemed in the show so I felt like it was so unnecessary. Same with Barry’s Mam being redeemed
Chloe Trethewey with Barry’s mom, I kinda get. It was at a time where being gay was still something people were figuring out due to generations of misinformation.
@@redrasegarden i know but him instantly forgiving her after 21 years or rejection just felt a bit dumb
I agree.. but srry to be that person, its ‘through’, ‘threw’ is the past verb of ‘throw’ lol smh. But i agree tho rlly
Chloe Trethewey maybe a little
I love Emma and Alyssa together, and Jo Ellen and Ariana have terrific chemistry! 💘👭 My only gripe is that I wished they had more scenes, as they often felt sidelined by the zany actors' shenanigans, in their own movie.
I agree, but I still really love the movie
The fact that their whole love story can be contained in 12 mins is actually kind of sad
Watching this, it hit me: this is another LGBTQ+ movie for straight people. Which sucks.
Well, it isn't their own movie. They may be the main plot, but the actors are the main characters. That's the same in the play.
Trina Q ur crazy god made a man for a reason
I still don’t get why they cut Emma and Alyssa’s part in You Happened
I know right. That’s the best part of the song. I wanted to see Ariana do Isabella's noodle arm thing.
No idea either, but I'm glad it's at least in the soundtrack
Because the movie has 2h and instead of cut other people parts they prefered to cut the main caracthers parts. Ryan Murphy being Ryan Murphy
@@lisiacoelhobr6001 lol yeah. it's weird that they would cut literally an addition of a minute and a half just to do their verse
I hope that they will at least post that part as a deleted scene.
Still salty over "BEFORE I MET YOU! I WAS A MESS" being cut from You Happened 😩
Watch the og pre Broadway version to be even more salty, it’s a whole ass love song and a scene that actually shows them being a couple and why they like each other
@@natsolomon7849 Where can you watch it
•Natali Camacho• TH-cam!! I watched the song recently, the scene may have been a bootleg so I’m not sure if it’s still up
Same😭😭
I don't know what it is about the line "Note to self, don't be gay in Indiana" that makes me laugh every time I hear it. 😂😂😂
Jo Ellen Pellman who played Emma did an amazing job and finding out this was her first movie that’s amazing I hope her career goes up from here she has huge potential
okay, so this is based on just seeing this video and not the movie, I kinda dislike that no time is given to Alyssa. Its about Emma, and when Alyssa brings up her mum, Emma's just like well only we matter. Good for you Emma for being ready to come out, and its good to encourage someone to take that leap too cause she can provide the strength needed. But when someone has legitimate concerns their mum might react badly... I dont think that should be swept aside. Living your authentic self is truly the best thing to do, but you have to acknowledge that for some people this comes at the expense of family. Why is this always undervalued? Especially when you're a teenager still, the consequences could be living on the streets. This is why you need longer storylines, because if these are their entire scenes then... they're barely given the time to exist as a couple. In real life you would hope that Emma would be more supportive, and they would actually go through these emotions together. But this happens in every movie, can we not have one where emotional breakthroughs happen with the other? To me the emotional weight comes from them being a lesbian couple in an underrepresented world. Do we care about them because we get to know them as a couple, no.
I see both sides, but, yeah, it really felt like Emma was pressuring Alyssa to come out, even though she made it clear she wasn't ready.
Ariana DeBose is EXQUISITE
*This movie was EXTREMELY WELL DONE. I could watch it all the time!! It deserves an Oscar!!*
*Especially the actress who plays Emma, Jo Ellen Pellman*
Same
Fun fact: The Prom was Jo Ellen Pellman's first ever movie. Nailed it ✨
@@stillwatchingnetflix YES!!!
@@stillwatchingnetflix She's now a breakout star now because of it and I hope to see her in more movies in the future
@@stillwatchingnetflix she’s an amazing actress
Emma being hate crimed: 😁
Emma finding out about the fake prom: 🥲
Emma breaking up with Alyssa: 😄
LITERALLLY HANFJF LIKE JO ELLEN IS SUCH A GOOD ACTOR WHAT HAPPENED HERE-
Pretty sure she smiled on the first one because of Alyssa.
What do you mean? The actor who played Emma was amazing.
@@cecilia8515 it’s the direction of the film i’m not blaming the actress but Emma is smiling non stop in the film it’s weird
@@MegTalksGlee Emma is meant to be a cheerful character that's why, but she wasn't smiling when those things happened to her. She was crying when she found out about the fake prom for example.
I’ve watched this movie 3 times and bought the album. I absolutely loved their story and love the characters. Jo Ellen smashed her first ever performance! Hope to see her in more projects Netflix! Ariana is so beautiful! And such a fantastic actress. Thank you for making my 2020 so much better with this movie! I love Emma and Alyssa ❤️❤️
covered in 12 mins,,, when its the main plot of the story,,,,,
i think i'd be fired if i uploaded the whole movie to TH-cam
@@stillwatchingnetflix It's a jab at the movie/the original musical because it was the main reason the actors came which should make it the most important part of the story but it's fully covered in only twelve minutes not telling you to show the full musical if that makes any sense.
@@stillwatchingnetflix you missed the point b
@@stillwatchingnetflix dw, i dont blame you person who runs the netflix youtube channel
@@stillwatchingnetflix The point isn't that you haven't uploaded the entire thing, its that you have practically uploaded all of Emma and Alyssa's scenes and they make up such a small part of the movie. Plus most of their songs were shortened, and we know more about Shelby and Kaylee's relationships with their boyfriends than Emma and Alyssa because they were cut from 'You happened'. Compared to the Broadway show, its disappointing.
Anyone else just start screeching during their first kiss? No? Just me? Ok.
My parents came downstairs thinking I was being attacked I was screeching so much!
Nope, I was squeeing all over the place when they kissed, FINALLY! 💘👭
oh no, i can assure you i did
My family thought I was dying lol
I got butterflies in my stomach so much when I first saw it.
I love Emma and Alyssa! I think they really are the heart of the whole story! I only wish their lines and scenes hadn't been cut to give more screen time to the adults :/
Read the book. You'll be able to visualize everything. The book is more Emma/Alyssa centric.
I love this musical as much as the next person but honestly Emma and Alyssa need more time, both on stage and on screen. They’re so cute together 🥺
I lost the comment but whoever said “just watch a different movie” in response to someone complaining about how short their screen time is made me cry bc... like... there isn’t one?? There are three musicals to have ever hit Broadway with lesbian main characters (fun home the color purple and this one kinda) and that’s why we’re so sad. Name another movie musical with lesbian main characters?? Go ahead, I’ll wait...
all 3 of them were canceled before I knew they existed, but at least we have the soundtracks.
FunPerson AKA EBW Aww, they all have bootlegs I think!! I saw all three lol, two on tour tho
@@natsolomon7849 Nice! :)
You forgot Rent.
Amy Palmer they’re not the main characters in rent
Imagine owning yourself this hard. They have so little screen time together it’s ridiculous
Jo and Ariana was perfect. I've never seen actors of that age perform as great as Jo and Ariana. I really want to hear more of their stories🥲🏳️🌈
Not sure how old Jo was but Ariana was around 30 when this filmed. They're older than they look!
Netflix UK and Ireland has the best videos of all Netflix Channels.
oh shucks
This is a wonderful movie. The best one I have seen this year by far. The entire cast -- and I mean every single actor -- has been perfectly cast and is , well, perfect! But Jo Ellen Pellman is the (unruly) heart of the movie. None of it works without her. I have watched the movie three times and will likely watch again over the holidays. Funny, dramatic, emotional and musical. With a great message. Bravo to All.
This feels like main theme movie material, and it turns out it's just a tiny sliver of it? Bummer.
“I just don’t want your life to be hard” I hear this every time I talk to my parents about anything involving me..... I felt that so much
12min for those
It should be 2 hours of emma and alyssa like how they got toghter and stuff 🥰
You do realize there are other characters, right?
I mean I loveeeee it but the kiss at the end was much more powerful and electric in original musical couple for some reason. That was magical tbh! Love this too. Love you Netflix
Yaa the kiss waa very heart touching...
Not really.
they are singing about being yourself and not being a "scapegoat" and that's literally what happens, their story is sidelined and is used to bait viewers
Right!?
Yet still cut their dialogue and the end of you happened for unnecessary plot lines
This is great, but I want the full performance of You happened, we only have the soundtrack 🥺. As many say, I wish they had more time on screen
I hope this becomes an animated series that takes place after the events of The Prom. It should be called, "Emma & Alyssa: A Prom Animated Series".
I’d totally watch that
@@rocknroll20024 same, even though I’m not gay. Especially if Caitlin and Izzy respire their roles from the Broadway. I was thinking Jo Ellen and Ariana can play new and original characters.
They would probably be sidelined in their own show too.
@@meashafong883 what’s a sideline?
@@cartooncentral263 this movie was supposed to be mainly about them but it ended up being them featuring in their own movie and they even cut out some of their important scenes from the broadway. that is what I mean by sidelined.
Alyssa’s mom’s reaction when she came out hit so close to home that I am in a flood of tears…so I am not the only one who has gone through this abusive crap and thought it was just “normal motherly love”…
Me three; though it was with my grandma.
They were cute together and the movie was great!
I love Emma and Alyssa 💗
Me too, they're insanely cute together! 👭💘
Me too
Sameee TwT
Same
The line "You don't turn gay! You are who you are!" Gets me every time 😭
I love them so so so much! I already watched the movie three times, I would DIE to see the whole scene, without cuting the songs, of YOU HAPPENED and Dance With You!!!!!
I literally almost broke down when Emma realized that they changed the prom last minute she was so embarrassed and sad
I am literally crying this was so beautiful
you had the time to put 12 minutes of alyssa and emma? cuz in the movie it seemed like 5
If I was Emma I would go to the other prom and “accidentally” ruin it all by spilling things
Or set something on fire 😁
3:21 y'all really tryin to make me cry on Christmas eve 😭
God, I've watched this movie for 8 times now, help me I'm obsessed with these two.
When Alyssa looks at her mom in the end and her mom nods in approval it's so wholesome ❤
Seeing Ariana Debose get her Oscar nomination after being in this last year is amazing. She’s a gem.
Omg! I loveee thissss! This makes me happy that I'm bisexual and transgender ( i didn't get surgery i just want a binder) but this was really nice and I love this, it was so cute watching them both fall in love and finally be who they were at the end. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA THIS IS AMAZING! I NEED TO WATCH THIS MOVIE!
This is cute:) wish there'd been more scenes
This was so beautiful. I cried so many times. Scenes, songs, and actors were all amazing.
This is film of enormous relevance and importance. Rejection and misunderstanding can damage people in a way that holds back these people who just wants to be themselves I'm not gay but have watched this film 4 times., Just. Because you don't understand there feelings would you not help them if they were hurt knowing this, if you say no this, then it's you have a problem friend's disagree but true friends put there friendship FIRST but not fall out. In film Emma breaks up with Alissa but would have remained friends nevertheless, but Emma owned the problem and sang that wonderful song,, the rest is history. Great film.
I wish Caitlin Kinnunen and Isabelle McCalla had a cameo appearance in this movie. Something like the Stan Lee cameos in Marvel.
Dang I love them so much. Great movies, great plot, filming and acting. I’m looking forward to a sequel :3
We need more of Emma & Alyssa, Angie & Trent..
I listen to You Happened so many times now. Seeing that they cut You Happened is freaking dissatisfying
Agreed Emma was smiling at the most awkward times other emotions weren’t conveyed that well 🤷🏽♀️
The best 2-hours and 12 minutes of my life
UnLiKe YoUr SoCiAl LiFe, ThIs iSnT oVeR
this line haunts my dreams
@@stillwatchingnetflix 🤣🤣❤
@@stillwatchingnetflix with Kayleigh and Shelby at the beginning you didn’t like them but did towards the end! Thanks to LOVE THY NEIGHBOUR!
For everyone complaining about how their story is so short, and the whole movie focus was Emma and Alyssa, one they can't show the whole movie here the person could get fired, and two the main focus was Emma and the Broadway actors. not Emma and Alyssa.
That's the fucking thing. In the original Broadway version, Emma and Alyssa were just as important as the actors. Nobody overshadowed them.
In fact, for the promotional posters of the broadway version, the actresses of Alyssa and Emma were always in the front. Whenever they advertised The Prom, the actress of Emma was always the one in the center. The broadway actors were never the main focus.
2:58 I adore Jo’s voice, especially here.
didn’t think this was gonna make me cry so much
I love Andrew Rannells in this film ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
James Corden: "I'm gonna cry"
Me too my dude... me too
Loved the movie and now know the Broadway show cast as well. did not know of it before dec 11 and happy they transferred this show to bigger audience. Fan of both now.
Wait, someone in the universe listened to my Christmas wish AND RELEASED THEIR STORY?! Merry Christmas and make the yuletide gay 🎉
I loved them 🥺 wish there’s more
Keep giving representation so one day "coming out" will be a thing of the past
I’m so obsessed with the prom OMGGGGG!!
as a real life lesbian maybe its not the greatest idea to pressure your partner into coming out to people who are obviously unsupportive? Alyssa had explained her mom was openly homophobic and then she still breaks up and abandon her because alyssa was too scared of the aftermath? like arent they seniors, couldnt she have just supported her and waited for a time she was ready?? just peeves me how emma was rhe one “hurting” because of it, like good for you that you had the will power and strength to come out regardless of what happens but not everyone has it so simple
The chemistry on screen, omfg 😍
I love this musical! Great cast and story concept, great lesson on acceptance. ❤
Emma and Alyssa are just so cute, so precious and so adorable, they have my heart. 💜
We want more Emma and Alissa
This movie was so amazing!!!!!
I loved this movie very much
They all have such nice teeth LMAO
Thanks
People are talking about how this is the main plot of the movie covered in 12 minets but... it’s really not. Most of the movie is aboutEmma and she gets a lot more screen time then this makes it out to be. In fact, maybe separating them was the point because it made their union at the end feel like more of a victory.
The fact it fits in a 12 min video
This movie had me in tears
I saw the movie yesturday for the first time on netflix and i love it ,it is a very good and sad musical. This musical its going on my list of my favorite musical/movies
i feel like they didn’t have that much chemistry... idk it feels really dry to me
Let’s go Emma and Alyssa glorious Evolution!👏👏👏
I just don’t want you to have a hard life (3 seconds later) *leaves
The fake prom killed me. People are so cruel to people who don’t fit the mold.
God ! that voice it's magical 🤩🤩👍👍👍
they are the absolute sweetest
I've seen this first scene more than once and just now I realized whats happening with the bears lol
I hate Shelby and Kaylee for what they did to them
I personally think that every actor in the world should learn that how to dance party celebrate just like the people in the prom they should learn to dance like that just in case they ever need to be in a musical or A film that just has dancing and plus they might have fun learning something new and I have learned through life that movies like the prom that it’s moments like that is where you feel so alive
It would be great if this movie wasn´t a musical and it were more focused on these two ❤️❤️
It's literally a screen adaptation of a Broadway musical, dumbass.
I felt so bad when Emma was the only one at her prom🥲
So Beautiful Song and Story
Great Video I like It
Still Watching 2021 👭❤️😍
3/7/21
Sunday
8:13 Am
9:46 sis was a straight mood 😂😂
Is anyone else jealous about Emma's big rainbow in her room? i want it.
name of the movie or series
ohhh i love musicals and also already ship them, going to watch it now 💘
a year later i still cant believe they cut the most imporant part of "your happened" out of the movie. that missing emma and alyssa part was the whole point of the song.
The fact the teachers stared😂😂😂
