I for one can't help laughing to myself, since now I can bring this up from Wallace and Gromit(at the 0:44 mark)! th-cam.com/video/kvkJZxzv-TA/w-d-xo.html I just love saying "The Bullet" like they do in that clip! It amuses just as much as James Reynold's getup(pm1.narvii.com/6702/cbfbf95220bc33eb9141b2463713bbebcf60a898_hq.jpg ) cause I mean SERIOUSLY, I get that it's a mix of a period piece and the stylings of a pimp, but to me he looks like he's cosplaying as Woody from Toy Story(not that I mind)!! XD
Another foreshadow of John Laurens’s death, not related to the Bullet, is in Aaron Burr’s introductory song. Burr sings, “fools who run their mouths off wind up dead...” immediately followed by John rapping a line, and Burr remarking “Like I said...”
Ugh I was gonna point this out but you beat me to it lol. I'd also like to add that while Aaron Burr said "Like I said..", Bullet girl/Legacy/Death herself, is staring John right in the face.
Never really noticed when Hamilton says to leave a note for your next of kin, he looks at Laurens and nods, which is probably a subtle nod to Anthony Ramos playing Phillip in Act II.
I know this may be a bit far fetched, but it may also link to the alleged romance between Hamilton and Laurens, though it is just a little thing that I'm sure wasn't intentional lol.
In story of tonight reprise you can notice Anthony Ramos and Lin Manuel Miranda looking at each other in ways that seem like they have a deeper relationship. Just watch it over again...
My favorite weird detail is when Ham tells Lafayette "ill see you on the other side" in Yorktown. The next time we see Lafayette he is playing Jefferson, literally on the opposing side.
@@MrJerks93 Hardly "alleged" - he made her pregnant in Paris when she was ~16 and he was about ~46. She had 6 of his children in total, and remained enslaved until he died.
This is exactly why I have been telling people that you CANNOT digest all of Hamilton in one sitting. It's also nice that Hamilton features a relatively small cast with the same actors portraying multiple characters. I have watched it too many times to remember since it premiered on Disney+ and each time, I watch for different things like the main characters, ensemble, dancers, movement of the floor and props and even the lighting. From my many viewings, I caught almost all of these things mentioned in this video. Every time I watch, I discover something new and I am still completely blown away by how phenomenal Hamilton is and the brilliance of Lin-Manuel Miranda, the entire cast, crew, orchestra and everyone involved!!

Is it just me or is the addition of “the bullet” so genius? Lin was so clever to add this underlying character and ambiance all throughout the musical💗💗💗
Honestly I’m always soo floored at just how effortlessly good a storyteller Lin is. Whether it’s a play, a song, a musical, a *story* , he’s a fantastic writer.
I noticed her in the film, but didn't really understand her to be a character. I had not really made a note at all in the stage production (which I saw twice - Chicago cast), I think I noticed her specifically in the film because she had such a cool look about her that she caught my eye in most of the numbers she was a part of. Thanks for the info. Now I'll go back and watch again!
Same she stood out to me but I never made the connection. I just figured it was a case of using the same extras and her style just made her more obvious.
she stood out to me because she was very a prominent ensemble cast. she always seemed to be on stage, always interacting with the characters in some way but also seemed like she didn’t belong since she was everywhere.
That’s crazy. There’s literally a character that represented death. This musical is so thought through. There’s so much to take in. I wonder how many eagles noticed this while actually watching. I recognized her but I thought she was just another background dancer; I never wouldve connected these dots by myself.
I noticed her keep popping up, but didn’t think this far into it until I heard that her name was “Bullet”. Then I was like........ “waaaait a minute herrrrrre. 🤔🤔🤔🧐”
I noticed the first time she was foreshadower of death but it was on my 3rd rewatch that I realised she was foreshadowing everyone not just Hamilton 🔥. Most moments mentioned in this video but it did take a while to make that connection. Unreal level of detail. I’ve seen the incredible subtlety on each rewatch. And when you compare to historical accounts it’s even more mind blowing. Like the nod to the rumours Hamilton and Laurens might have liked each other as more than friends “Laurens I like you a lot” and longing stares. Lin-Manuel and co are GOATS. Wow.
It makes sense why Hamilton says "I imagine death so much it feels more like a memory." Death is metaphorically following him throughout the entire musical and just needs time to come.
@@mythicalmusicnotes7400 I think it's a lot more direct than that. Howard Ho described the rap battles specifically as duels of words, with the participants firing remarks at each other. Sally (represented in Jefferson's mind as free-spirited and responsive even as she's cleaning his floor) is the one who invites Jefferson into the cabinet. This leads him to to lose in 2 duels against Hamilton, and then be elected, inspiring Burr's challenge.
Also if you look closely, the Bullet plays “Sally”, Jefferson’s slave who he has children with. She hands Jefferson the letter about Jefferson’s appointment into Washington’s Cabinet. I feel that this signifies the start of Hamilton’s problems as the Bullet hands the appointment to the man who will be instrumental in his down fall. And if you don’t know, now you know. 😎
GOD! Or maybe she is just a character called Sally who they wanted to cast yet they had better people so they gave her an important role and she just appears EVERYWHERE!!
I noticed a few more between Hamilton, Laurens and the Bullet. During "My Shot", right after the point the Bullet is the last to unfreeze, she comes in close to Hamilton and Laurens puts his hand between them and glares at Bullet for a second. And during "Helpless", after Hamilton's rap, Bullet (in a ballgown) dances toward Hamilton as he walks to the back of the stage only for Laurens to come between them again and lead Hamilton back to the front. No wonder Bullet had it in for Laurens.
i was looking for these. thanks for pointing them out. but then after laurens says "let's get this guy in front of a crowd," i see she takes something from Ham and seems to put it in laurens' coat. It's invisible like the bullet but it was a very deliberate movement.
I've been talking with a (apperently very convincing) British accent this whole week so I never even payed attention to the pronunciation but that's nice lol
Peggy was also the first of the 3 Schulyer Sister to die irl. And in “Schulyer Sisters” Burr lists the sisters in the order they died, from earliest to latest. Peggy died first, Angelica died second, and Eliza lived the longest and took her time just like Hamilton told her to do, she lived to 97.
The bullet also gave Thomas Jefferson the letter informing him of his role as secretary, setting in motion Hamilton's government removal and in turn his eventual demise.
True, since the rise of Hamilton is mainly attributed to not having any enemies that can outwit him, so Thomas Jefferson arriving is basically a bullet in his career.
Laurens is also seen with The Bullet from 16:00-16:10 in the background during The Schuyler Sisters- at 16:14 he locks eyes with Peggy, just pointing that out because I love Anthony and Jasmine together lol
I noticed her thinking she was slowing the bullet at the end not even realizing she WAS the bullet all along! 🤦🏽♀️ I guess that’s why I can’t stop watching it! 😍
I find The Bullet/Death actually super cool and she really shows how much genius goes into this show. Also it's pretty refreshing for Death to be portrayed by a woman.
I hadn’t taken note of her until the final scene when My 9 year old daughter said “oh she’s the bullet that’s why she is every where people die” it blew my mind and when i watched it again i noticed she was death. This video opened me up to more of her important role. Still in aw that my 9yr old kid figured this out before I did!!!
Love that you watch this together. So many times children notice things that we as adults might see, but originally might dismiss. Your daughter has wonderful powers of observation and understanding of the abstract. You must enjoy her company so much!!
What’s so crazy is how “the bullet”, which is a sick nickname btw, represents death the entire show and so many people miss her. She’s such an important part of the show and yet I would never recognize her as a character until now, of course!
I had always noticed this ensamble member in clips, slime tutorials, and other things. I didn't know why, maybe because I thought she looked pretty or she was the only one that stood out to me. I wouldn't say I noticed her ominous foreshadowing of death, I just liked her for some reason. So um...yeah.
If you want to see more of Ariana DeBose keep an eye out for her upcoming roles as leads in both the Steven Spielberg adaptation of "West Side Story" as "Anita" and as "Alyssa Greene" in Ryan Murphy's film adaptation of the 2018 musical "The Prom"!
Awesome, thanks for sharing that! I'd heard about her being in WSS (she's Anita in that, I think), but didn't know she was in TP as well. Will definitely look out for her in those. Love that there's lots more movie musicals being made these days. 😊
@@FlicksAndTheCity yup! Aside from TPM & WSS (still set to premiere in 2020, but we'll see about that thanks to COVID-19) is, just like Hamilton, Disney filmed Aladdin the musical live onstage in the West End and ironically enough the girl that played jasmine in the filming of the show originated the role of Alyssa Greene in the prom on bway :) it's set to be released late 2020 on disney+! (And more movie-musical films coming up: "everyone's talking about jaime", "in the heights", "13", and "tick tick boom")
She's also played Jane in the musical A Bronx Tale(co Directed by Robert De Niro and Jerry Zacks, and composed by Alan Menken)(th-cam.com/video/jMSzSVMOB7E/w-d-xo.html), and her most recent role on Broadway is Disco Era Donna Summers in Summers: The Donna Summers Musical(th-cam.com/video/u1la_2aq9Vo/w-d-xo.html)! Before Hamilton, she was also Nautica(and understudying Daphne) in Bring It On The Musical(co written by Lin Manuel Miranda and Tom Kitt(Next to Normal), with a Libretto by Jeff Whitty(Avenue Q), Marry Wilson and Ensemble in Motown the Musical, understudy and later replaced Patrina Miller as The Leading Player in Pippin 2013, and she was even a contestant on So You Think You Can Dance. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ariana_DeBose
Further more about Spielberg's West Side Story, Brian d'Arcy James, the original Off Broadway King George, will also be in the film playing Officer Krupke!
Theres a bit in the song "My Shot" when Lawrence puts his arm in front of the Bullet and shakes his head at her. Its when Hamilton is on the box where he sings the line "I'm passionately smashin' every expectation Every action's an act of creation!"
No, the actress who signifies Hamilton's mother has a larger afro. Indeed, the two actresses can be seen on stage together during Hamilton's soliloquy, as the Bullet is obviously carrying the bullet but Washington's actor, Anthony Ramos, and Hamilton's Mom's actress are up on the stage balcony.
I went to high school with her (we actually were in choir together) and I always knew she’d do big things after graduation! She’s incredibly talented! I always looked up to her since she was a couple grades older than me.
I love that Lin makes you actually focus on the entirety of the play to actually notice everything. For more lore of what happened, subtle nods to whatever, and to detail more on the importance on things that seemed insignificant. Everything really is important in the play.
I feel like she also "killed" Burr, but more emotionally than physically. She was there talking about Burr's presidential campaign which Hamilton ruined. She gives him the desk and quill, which he (as you described) eventually uses to asking Hamilton to duel. He then feels immense regret, as shown when he sings "the world was wide enough", which I think killed a little part of him. Idk, just my theory!
Also, she is staring directly at Burr when he fires his gun during the final duel. This could be hinting at Burr's eventual downfall, since he was vilified because of the duel.
An interesting note is that when A. Burr fired at A. Ham, the character didn't follow the bullet's path to Hamilton. While watching on screen, I was actually surprised that the path of the bullet wasn't followed to it's target.
It’s really cool because you see everyone interact with the bullet, and no Matter what she is perceived as, she kills. like John Lauren’s shaking hands with the bullet, Philip talking to the ladies before confronting Mr. Eacker, and her speaking to and moving the chair for King George and also barely missing Hamilton in “Stay alive” (as she explained in the video) but! what is super interesting is that, Thomas Jefferson is the only character in the show that interacts with the bullet in the show that does not die by the end. In the song “what did I miss?” she is perceived as “Sally” who opens and hands the letter from the president to Thomas, in which reveals he is Secretary of State. It’s very strange but very cool.
There are certain songs that I like to watch over and over because they are just so good, and then when I re-watched it a second time I kept going, "Oh! Look! It's this background character again". And fell in love with her throughout the musical, all the while wondering why she was always at the forefront or always like there. With the information I know now, I need to go back and watch it again. Also- just to watch it again haha.
@reMARKable Also cannot get the songs out of my head! 🎶🎵 As for a film, I think they may well do that one day - Lin-Manuel Miranda has retained his rights to make one, though I suspect it'll be quite a few years from now, maybe along the lines of how long Universal chose to wait to make Wicked into a cinema movie. 😊
Who would have thought one small character can make such a big impact on everyone in the show and how the story is told. I honestly have chills just knowing that “the bullet” was there from the very being of the whole process of the story. I’m definitely going to have to go back and pay close attention to the show
I thought she represented some kind of Death character, thinking maybe because she was the first to die during the production, but I hadn't noticed all of that. The genius of this musical just continues to astound me.
I've always wondered, why does this one girl in the ensemble seem to play some sort of a role different to the other actors in the ensemble. she always kinda stood out. Thanks for this video!
Yeah the moment I saw her killed and then still interact with the mains was like, yo she's foreshadowing I just didn't know her name was the bullet though
Glad you agreed!💜 Like I noticed her a couple times just not realized what her actual purpose is in the show and the choreography as well... Wonder why it tooks years. I mean yes broadway shows take a long time to make, arrange and all that stuff but man... How much effort they put in Hamilton though... The tiny details matter...
I actually did catch her in my first watch of the show. I've been doing theatre for about eight years, so I tend to look at shows differently than, say, my parents do. I pay special attention to the blocking, particularly that of the ensemble. I remember her significance hitting me like a fricking truck. I referred to her as the 'death lady' for most of the show, and my parents thought I was crazy.
I kind of focused on her because I was really intrigued by what she was doing, and halfway through (I only watched it once) I realised she was always close to the characters that were going to die next. It made me really appreciate the show
I've been an avid fan of Hamilton for years now, and I (guilty) have watched bootlegs so many times. More than how much I can count with my two hands. When Hamilton officially came out on Disney+ I was astonished by all the details that I've never noticed before. Even the 'Bullet' character. Every time I've watched Hamilton now, I still come across new Easter eggs that bootlegs failed to capture. When people compared Lin to Shakespeare years ago, I thought it was just the wit and poetry behind the lyrics. I've never thought that almost everything: the songs, characters, and choreography, has a deeper meaning behind them. Everything (arguably) was put in there for a reason. And how the viewers discover and interpret what they see in different ways, goes to show how much of a genius Lin and the whole production crew is. We analyze Hamilton like how we analyze Shakespeare's works. Years later, I won't be surprised that English classes (in the U.S at least) will start analyzing Hamilton as a piece of literature. I'm excited to watch Hamilton again and see if I can find other details/theories.
its crazy how at the moment the bullet hits Hamilton his last thoughts are of his wife. It's so beautiful and sad watching that moment because she is still in bed oblivious to what has just occurred until it's too late.
IKR, that’s why I find “best of wives and best of women” so sad. She made the choice to go back to bed when unbeknownst to her that would be the last time she saw him
It is not the last time she sees him - he dies the day after he was shot, and she would have been one of the first to know. It is the last time she sees him fully healthy, and the last time she sees him without worrying about his demise.
@@RainstormofRoses yeah because burr literally says “people say Angelica and eliza were both at his side when he died”. Most thought he was talking about spiritually but they were actually at his side as died in his own bed
This was the greatest play/movie ive ever seen. Being in a reb clinic for. Hip surgery. I was released two weeks before Hamilton was to premiere on Disney. I told my daughter to set it up on my tv because I'd heard so much chatter about this wonderful event. And I've watched it twice a day since the premiere Wonderful is all i can say, just an excellent story told in the time allocated. Lin manual Miranda is genius. And so handsome. God bless him for hos vision!
While watching Hamilton for the first and second time I never noticed Bullet but now having watched it over 10 times I will always look for her even if she isn’t in the scene, as she is now one of my favorite characters next to “Peggy, Angelica, Eliza (sneak into the city to watch all the guys at-)”
I’ve been keeping a Hamilton personal notes and details log (I’ve watched the film about 8 times noticing new details every time), and the bullet has been featured a lot!
I'll be honest, before I saw Hamilton on Disney+, I listened to Hamilton a lot and never heard of the bullet. And, strangely I kept seeing her. I mean I saw the other extras too, but she stood out with how much she was around the center of the action. So when I saw her being the bullet at the end, I felt like I knew her and saw her the entire time. Its poetic in a way.
Has anyone else seen the French musical of Roméo et Juliette : de la haine à l'amour? There they have a character who plays death and it's a similar idea to The Bullet. Very clever and something you don't get from listening on Spotify but watching it on stage (or TH-cam) :)
Imagine having such an important part, so carefully constructed, that most of the audience won't notice but had so much thought put in by the creators. Being known as "The Bullet" and dancing around like a Faith. Arianna has such a cool part
Oh my goodness. Every time I have read or watched something related to Hamilton I was always so drawn to Ariana and I had no idea why. When I watched the play I noticed her acting as the bullet but all these other scenes of her make her character matter so much more to me. She's like a guardian angel of death watching over everyone in Hamilton's story. I guess there was a reason she was always one of the first people I looked at. The Bullet/Angel of Death is my favorite character, I'd love to play that part if I were to get the chance to audition for a production of Hamilton.
The first few times I watched Hamilton, I noticed how Ariana DeBose was constantly doing things that resemble death or with the people who encounter death, but I never knew how deep it really was. So like, damn. This video was great ngl
Another bullet moment I like is near the end of The Reynolds Pamphlet when the ensemble is freestyling with all the papers and she is on the floor at the front of the stage, possibly signifying the “death” of Hamilton’s political and moral reputation.
ahhh this makes so much more sense now. It's funny because I was always drawn to her- she's literally gorgeous and her hair is so pretty. I never knew why I paid so much attention to her though. But then when I watched the movie, I realized that she was the bullet when Hamilton dies, and "Sally". Her look reminds me so much of Catherine Parr from Six lol
This is just amazing, I think she might be one of my favorite characters now. I noticed that part where the ensemble lifted her up to reach Alex, but I’ve never thought so deeply about the rest.. Y’know, we need to start doing a lot more about this girl. The Bullet is literally amazing.
you should do something about the conspiracy that the ending is lin himself (as the author) leading eliza to show her the people that came to see her story :’)
I think also she’s pulled away when Eliza enters not only because she kept Hamilton’s legacy alive, but also let’s not forget that Eliza outlives EVERYONE!
The foreshadow of death I noticed is in Aaron Burr, sir. Burr says "Fools who run their mouth wind up dead." Next person to speak is Lauren's. Then the next time Burr speaks "You spit, Ima sit and we'll see where we land." Hamilton speaks next.
Actually Hamilton doesn’t speak directly after that. Someone asked burr about the revolution then Hamilton interrupted and asked “if you stand for nothing burr, what will you fall for?”

I just love saying "The Bullet" like they do in that clip! It amuses just as much as James Reynold's getup(pm1.narvii.com/6702/cbfbf95220bc33eb9141b2463713bbebcf60a898_hq.jpg ) cause I mean SERIOUSLY, I get that it's a mix of a period piece and the stylings of a pimp, but to me he looks like he's cosplaying as Woody from Toy Story(not that I mind)!!

She’s also sally in Jefferson’s song
She's gonna be Anita in the new West Side Story, apparently.
You couldn’t tell already
Okay can we talk about how badass the nickname “the bullet” is?
HONESTLY! IT'S AMAZING!
The bullet basically shows where the bullet of a gun is showing
@@aveorsomethingidk1670 hmm yeah
I helped you hit 1k!
Preparation-H feels the same way
This is probably also why they gave her a very distinctive hairstyle, so she's always recognizable.
The Great Goblin Wizard Kazamaraz yes that was my thought too. You can always see her, regardless of the lighting or situation.
Absolutely. I can't take my eyes off of her when she's on stage. She has such a magnetic energy.
No that’s just her hairstyle search her up on her 2015-2017 pictures
That's just her. I have a selfie with her from when I met her in 2015 at a banquet, her hair was done in the same style.
She always caught my attention

Lin is a freakin genius
She also plays Sally Hemmings, a slave of Thomas Jeffersons and Sally side of history is what destroyed Jefferson's reputation.
Sounds like Thomas Jefferson not being able to keep it in his pants destroyed Thomas Jefferson's reputation, lol
Quentisha Puryear it’s basically the same thing for Alex
EGA 1022 Except Sally was raped. It was common for slave owners to rape their young female slaves.
The hypocrisy of writing that all men are created equal and then being a slave owner and alleged rapist is what tarnished his legacy.

Usually I'd be like "nah its a coincidence"... but this is Lin we're talking about
Yeah, after you see the easter eggs in the opening number with the double casting you know nothing is a coincidence in Hamilton!
Amen
mate, in the Adam's administration, hamilton said "Sit Down John" that line from 1776
Once again proof that the Linnamon-roll and his co-creators overthought everything.

This was the work of the choreographer mostly!
hi we have the same name :)
Honestly I’m always soo floored at just how effortlessly good a storyteller Lin is. Whether it’s a play, a song, a musical, a *story* , he’s a fantastic writer.
This would've been the director and choreographer making these decisions, inserting meaning between the text
It's just you. There is nothing "brilliant" about this dreck. It's about as deep as an 8th-grade drama club show.

I wonder if her being sally points towards Jefferson’s legacy dying as that came to light.
It was Sally Hemings that brought down the Jefferson legacy, so “The Bullet” killed the legacy! How cool!!!
Literally came here to point this out! And to mention that the actress went on to play Allison in The Umbrella Academy!!
@@mythicalmusicnotes7400 I think it's a lot more direct than that. Howard Ho described the rap battles specifically as duels of words, with the participants firing remarks at each other. Sally (represented in Jefferson's mind as free-spirited and responsive even as she's cleaning his floor) is the one who invites Jefferson into the cabinet. This leads him to to lose in 2 duels against Hamilton, and then be elected, inspiring Burr's challenge.
same. i noticed her a lot
Thought that I was the only one who noticed "The Bullet"! I never even noticed a lot of those - gotta watch it again!
Well done on noticing her! And glad to hear I've helped you spot some more Bullet oments to look out for as well! :-)
I noticed her throughout the musical. I had not realize she was the bullet. Time to watch hamilton again.
@@DoDisturbedTv YAY More excuses to watch it on repeat😅
@@nataniatracy5042 Exactly. 😉
I know i would always point her out while watching and wondered why she was so prominent
Also if you look closely, the Bullet plays “Sally”, Jefferson’s slave who he has children with. She hands Jefferson the letter about Jefferson’s appointment into Washington’s Cabinet. I feel that this signifies the start of Hamilton’s problems as the Bullet hands the appointment to the man who will be instrumental in his down fall.
And if you don’t know, now you know. 😎
Aye and if ya don’t knooow now ya know
.....
(I have been called out so many times on this comment section)
Thomas Jefferson much love Tommy Jeff 😆
Also, Jefferson's reputation got destroyed after people found out he had kids with Sally. So this was a two-for-one.
She’s the prettiest and most eye-catching on set w/ her cool hair and all, very hard to miss imo
ikr! shes so stunning and eye- catching!
She's also an amazing person! I have had the pleasure of meeting Ariana DeBose in person and she is incredibly chill to hang out with.
100th like u-u
That’s probably why they made her wear that, so she was more noticeable
i accidentally disliked this but i wanted to like im gon a cry
This just means: LIN IS A GENIUS
No wonder why he spent 6 years writting this musical
It's Thomas Kail's contribution
This was the work of the director and choreographer. Lin is great, but he also worked with an AMAZINGLY talented crew.
Lin is a musical and lyrical genius, you need to give some credit to the choreographer and director m8
GOD! Or maybe she is just a character called Sally who they wanted to cast yet they had better people so they gave her an important role and she just appears EVERYWHERE!!
I noticed a few more between Hamilton, Laurens and the Bullet.
During "My Shot", right after the point the Bullet is the last to unfreeze, she comes in close to Hamilton and Laurens puts his hand between them and glares at Bullet for a second.
And during "Helpless", after Hamilton's rap, Bullet (in a ballgown) dances toward Hamilton as he walks to the back of the stage only for Laurens to come between them again and lead Hamilton back to the front.
No wonder Bullet had it in for Laurens.
ooohhhh.... intresting very intresting....
I’ll have to look at this parts again do u think u could give the time stamps those happened
i was looking for these. thanks for pointing them out. but then after laurens says "let's get this guy in front of a crowd," i see she takes something from Ham and seems to put it in laurens' coat. It's invisible like the bullet but it was a very deliberate movement.
I love how she says Alexander she says it like : Alex-ahn-der
Just an ordinary British English accent! 😊 Glad you like it though!
MAZE RUNNER
I mean it’s an accent, but.... ok
I've been talking with a (apperently very convincing) British accent this whole week so I never even payed attention to the pronunciation but that's nice lol
It's my favorite way to say it, too.
The Bullet is stunning. She was great in Hamilton she definitely caught my attention and was one of the main dancers that shined
The bullet also stands behind Peggy during the wedding which is the last time she is seen in the show (if you didn’t know she died of the common cold)
I looked it up when my cousin told me when I watched it with her cause I noticed she disappeared and became Maria
WHOA.
Peggy was also the first of the 3 Schulyer Sister to die irl. And in “Schulyer Sisters” Burr lists the sisters in the order they died, from earliest to latest. Peggy died first, Angelica died second, and Eliza lived the longest and took her time just like Hamilton told her to do, she lived to 97.
The bullet also gave Thomas Jefferson the letter informing him of his role as secretary, setting in motion Hamilton's government removal and in turn his eventual demise.
Jefferson later became president, so how was he removed from government?
I think it's more that she is Sally, the bullet to Jefferson reputation.
@@wsc1018 when I said "his government removal" I was referring to Hamilton and not Jefferson himself.
Actually, that was Sally Hemings, one of Jefferson’s slaves, and she was mentioned in “What’d I Miss”
True, since the rise of Hamilton is mainly attributed to not having any enemies that can outwit him, so Thomas Jefferson arriving is basically a bullet in his career.
Laurens is also seen with The Bullet from 16:00-16:10 in the background during The Schuyler Sisters- at 16:14 he locks eyes with Peggy, just pointing that out because I love Anthony and Jasmine together lol
Thanks, Krys! 😊
In the musical???????
Lol have you seen the Mind Over Matter video? 😍🔥
Allison Bergh Yesss! I’m obsessed with them! 😅
Kristen Bascus Yes, I’m referring to the musical regarding the time stamps. Anthony and Jasmine are engaged. ♥️
I noticed her thinking she was slowing the bullet at the end not even realizing she WAS the bullet all along! 🤦🏽♀️ I guess that’s why I can’t stop watching it! 😍
There are so many tiny details
I got full-body chills at everybody pointing up in the opening. Hadn’t noticed that before, about to go show everyone I know
I find The Bullet/Death actually super cool and she really shows how much genius goes into this show.
Also it's pretty refreshing for Death to be portrayed by a woman.
traditionally in the Spanish speaking world, death is represented as a woman. I'm sure LMM had that in mind!
I hadn’t taken note of her until the final scene when My 9 year old daughter said “oh she’s the bullet that’s why she is every where people die” it blew my mind and when i watched it again i noticed she was death. This video opened me up to more of her important role. Still in aw that my 9yr old kid figured this out before I did!!!
Love that you watch this together. So many times children notice things that we as adults might see, but originally might dismiss. Your daughter has wonderful powers of observation and understanding of the abstract. You must enjoy her company so much!!
So uh.. Doesn't Hamilton have cusses?
Mmmm might be imagining things no way .-.
What’s so crazy is how “the bullet”, which is a sick nickname btw, represents death the entire show and so many people miss her. She’s such an important part of the show and yet I would never recognize her as a character until now, of course!
I had always noticed this ensamble member in clips, slime tutorials, and other things. I didn't know why, maybe because I thought she looked pretty or she was the only one that stood out to me. I wouldn't say I noticed her ominous foreshadowing of death, I just liked her for some reason. So um...yeah.
You like DEATH???????!!
hahahah i love the slime tutorial
Hehe slime tutorials
@@searmius1063 Shhhhhh!
Be careful with that because talking to her might be flirting with death.
If you want to see more of Ariana DeBose keep an eye out for her upcoming roles as leads in both the Steven Spielberg adaptation of "West Side Story" as "Anita" and as "Alyssa Greene" in Ryan Murphy's film adaptation of the 2018 musical "The Prom"!
Awesome, thanks for sharing that! I'd heard about her being in WSS (she's Anita in that, I think), but didn't know she was in TP as well. Will definitely look out for her in those. Love that there's lots more movie musicals being made these days. 😊
@@FlicksAndTheCity yup! Aside from TPM & WSS (still set to premiere in 2020, but we'll see about that thanks to COVID-19) is, just like Hamilton, Disney filmed Aladdin the musical live onstage in the West End and ironically enough the girl that played jasmine in the filming of the show originated the role of Alyssa Greene in the prom on bway :) it's set to be released late 2020 on disney+!
(And more movie-musical films coming up: "everyone's talking about jaime", "in the heights", "13", and "tick tick boom")
She's also played Jane in the musical A Bronx Tale(co Directed by Robert De Niro and Jerry Zacks, and composed by Alan Menken)(th-cam.com/video/jMSzSVMOB7E/w-d-xo.html), and her most recent role on Broadway is Disco Era Donna Summers in Summers: The Donna Summers Musical(th-cam.com/video/u1la_2aq9Vo/w-d-xo.html)!
Before Hamilton, she was also Nautica(and understudying Daphne) in Bring It On The Musical(co written by Lin Manuel Miranda and Tom Kitt(Next to Normal), with a Libretto by Jeff Whitty(Avenue Q), Marry Wilson and Ensemble in Motown the Musical, understudy and later replaced Patrina Miller as The Leading Player in Pippin 2013, and she was even a contestant on So You Think You Can Dance.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ariana_DeBose
Further more about Spielberg's West Side Story, Brian d'Arcy James, the original Off Broadway King George, will also be in the film playing Officer Krupke!
@M Mercado Love me a good movie musical! Very happy there's lots more of them coming up! 😊
Theres a bit in the song "My Shot" when Lawrence puts his arm in front of the Bullet and shakes his head at her. Its when Hamilton is on the box where he sings the line "I'm passionately smashin' every expectation
Every action's an act of creation!"
Doesn't she also portray Hamilton's mother in 'Alexander Hamilton' and thus is the first person to die on stage?
Yes. I was waiting for mention of this in the video.
No, the actress who signifies Hamilton's mother has a larger afro. Indeed, the two actresses can be seen on stage together during Hamilton's soliloquy, as the Bullet is obviously carrying the bullet but Washington's actor, Anthony Ramos, and Hamilton's Mom's actress are up on the stage balcony.
The actress who plays Hamilton's mom is named Sasha and she has a larger afro.
true...
@@chaneltutorials570 Thank you
The amount of foreshadowing and depth that went into the Hamilton plot is astounding. Well done Lin,, you’ve created a masterpiece.🥺😍
She was my favorite, to be honest...especially her interaction with King George 3
Jessica Spindler, she just laughed...it was so cute
I went to high school with her (we actually were in choir together) and I always knew she’d do big things after graduation! She’s incredibly talented! I always looked up to her since she was a couple grades older than me.
My little cousin gave me a baby lol surprise doll that looks like her so I call it “bullet baby”
Lol
Haha wow
That is brilliant. Such tiny details that can easily go unnoticed.
I love that Lin makes you actually focus on the entirety of the play to actually notice everything. For more lore of what happened, subtle nods to whatever, and to detail more on the importance on things that seemed insignificant. Everything really is important in the play.
I feel like she also "killed" Burr, but more emotionally than physically. She was there talking about Burr's presidential campaign which Hamilton ruined. She gives him the desk and quill, which he (as you described) eventually uses to asking Hamilton to duel. He then feels immense regret, as shown when he sings "the world was wide enough", which I think killed a little part of him. Idk, just my theory!
Also, she is staring directly at Burr when he fires his gun during the final duel. This could be hinting at Burr's eventual downfall, since he was vilified because of the duel.
in the Schuyler Sisters, you can see laurens in the background flirting with the bullet
An interesting note is that when A. Burr fired at A. Ham, the character didn't follow the bullet's path to Hamilton. While watching on screen, I was actually surprised that the path of the bullet wasn't followed to it's target.
It’s really cool because you see everyone interact with the bullet, and no Matter what she is perceived as, she kills. like John Lauren’s shaking hands with the bullet, Philip talking to the ladies before confronting Mr. Eacker, and her speaking to and moving the chair for King George and also barely missing Hamilton in “Stay alive” (as she explained in the video) but! what is super interesting is that, Thomas Jefferson is the only character in the show that interacts with the bullet in the show that does not die by the end. In the song “what did I miss?” she is perceived as “Sally” who opens and hands the letter from the president to Thomas, in which reveals he is Secretary of State. It’s very strange but very cool.
“So what is your character?” “I am Bullet, Death personified.” “Oh.”
There are certain songs that I like to watch over and over because they are just so good, and then when I re-watched it a second time I kept going, "Oh! Look! It's this background character again". And fell in love with her throughout the musical, all the while wondering why she was always at the forefront or always like there. With the information I know now, I need to go back and watch it again. Also- just to watch it again haha.
Makes me love Hamilton even more now
She was my favorite backup dancer! I didn't know she was a secret character! OwO
Same!
her name is ariana debose and her mom is my social studies teacher she came to our school a couple of years ago
Keira White wait that’s sick
sAmE
@@keirawhite8403
That's so cool!
Me and my 2 children cannot get the songs out of our heads. I hope they make a film.
They did, and it’s on Disney+. That’s what this video is about, because we all can watch it now.
cameronjpg I think I meant like an actual movie not the recorded musical
it's not a good idea
It’s good but I think it’s just fine the way it is. Whenever people try to remake stuff it usually just gets ruined T-T
@reMARKable Also cannot get the songs out of my head! 🎶🎵 As for a film, I think they may well do that one day - Lin-Manuel Miranda has retained his rights to make one, though I suspect it'll be quite a few years from now, maybe along the lines of how long Universal chose to wait to make Wicked into a cinema movie. 😊
Man,this legit gave me chills. I never noticed her recurring role before, but this is amazing.
Hamilton has so much Easter Eggs, I need to watch it 3 more times
Yes watch it 10 more times😂 You’ll always pick up something new everytime
There's certainly a heck of a lot of detail in there, for sure! 👀
I've seen it every day since July 3rd...I saw it twiceon the 3rd. So yes I seen it 14 times as of today
Wow 27 likes!
BAHAHAHHAHA YES I SAY THIS EVERYTIME I FINISH WATCHING IT AHAHHA
Dude when me and my friend watched this we always pointed her out cuz we loved for her!!! I'm SHOOK to know she has a secret meaning
Who would have thought one small character can make such a big impact on everyone in the show and how the story is told. I honestly have chills just knowing that “the bullet” was there from the very being of the whole process of the story. I’m definitely going to have to go back and pay close attention to the show
I thought she represented some kind of Death character, thinking maybe because she was the first to die during the production, but I hadn't noticed all of that. The genius of this musical just continues to astound me.
same
I've always wondered, why does this one girl in the ensemble seem to play some sort of a role different to the other actors in the ensemble. she always kinda stood out. Thanks for this video!
Am I the only one who noticed 'the bullet'? Not every single detail but noticed a few.
Haven't finished the video yet so I might edit this comment.
I definitely noticed her, but the meaning is just amazing 🤩
I noticed her but I didn't think much of it. I was just like "that character performer looks kinda out of place but alright"
Yeah the moment I saw her killed and then still interact with the mains was like, yo she's foreshadowing I just didn't know her name was the bullet though
I noticed her for sure, but I didn’t realize she was symbolic. I just noticed it’s the same girl for every gun shot scene
Glad you agreed!💜 Like I noticed her a couple times just not realized what her actual purpose is in the show and the choreography as well... Wonder why it tooks years. I mean yes broadway shows take a long time to make, arrange and all that stuff but man... How much effort they put in Hamilton though... The tiny details matter...
It’s one of the true masterpieces of this generation
I actually did catch her in my first watch of the show. I've been doing theatre for about eight years, so I tend to look at shows differently than, say, my parents do. I pay special attention to the blocking, particularly that of the ensemble. I remember her significance hitting me like a fricking truck. I referred to her as the 'death lady' for most of the show, and my parents thought I was crazy.
Since you mentioned her unfreezing in My Shot, when they lean in on Hamilton, Laurens stops her moving forward by using his arm to block her.
I kind of focused on her because I was really intrigued by what she was doing, and halfway through (I only watched it once) I realised she was always close to the characters that were going to die next. It made me really appreciate the show
I’ve loved watching her interactions with characters but hadn’t noticed all the little moments. Will have to rewatch.....again!
I've been an avid fan of Hamilton for years now, and I (guilty) have watched bootlegs so many times. More than how much I can count with my two hands. When Hamilton officially came out on Disney+ I was astonished by all the details that I've never noticed before. Even the 'Bullet' character. Every time I've watched Hamilton now, I still come across new Easter eggs that bootlegs failed to capture. When people compared Lin to Shakespeare years ago, I thought it was just the wit and poetry behind the lyrics. I've never thought that almost everything: the songs, characters, and choreography, has a deeper meaning behind them. Everything (arguably) was put in there for a reason. And how the viewers discover and interpret what they see in different ways, goes to show how much of a genius Lin and the whole production crew is. We analyze Hamilton like how we analyze Shakespeare's works. Years later, I won't be surprised that English classes (in the U.S at least) will start analyzing Hamilton as a piece of literature. I'm excited to watch Hamilton again and see if I can find other details/theories.
its crazy how at the moment the bullet hits Hamilton his last thoughts are of his wife. It's so beautiful and sad watching that moment because she is still in bed oblivious to what has just occurred until it's too late.
IKR, that’s why I find “best of wives and best of women” so sad. She made the choice to go back to bed when unbeknownst to her that would be the last time she saw him
It is not the last time she sees him - he dies the day after he was shot, and she would have been one of the first to know. It is the last time she sees him fully healthy, and the last time she sees him without worrying about his demise.
@@RainstormofRoses yeah because burr literally says “people say Angelica and eliza were both at his side when he died”. Most thought he was talking about spiritually but they were actually at his side as died in his own bed
This was the greatest play/movie ive ever seen. Being in a reb clinic for. Hip surgery. I was released two weeks before Hamilton was to premiere on Disney. I told my daughter to set it up on my tv because I'd heard so much chatter about this wonderful event. And I've watched it twice a day since the premiere
Wonderful is all i can say, just an excellent story told in the time allocated. Lin manual Miranda is genius. And so handsome. God bless him for hos vision!
I noticed her in the musical and I fell in love with her. She’s so amazing tbh
While watching Hamilton for the first and second time I never noticed Bullet but now having watched it over 10 times I will always look for her even if she isn’t in the scene, as she is now one of my favorite characters next to “Peggy, Angelica, Eliza (sneak into the city to watch all the guys at-)”
omg every time I watched the movie I was like 'She is in so many parts shes in" And I thought she had SOMETHING secret
YALL I’m getting goosebumps by how detailed everything is
I’ve been keeping a Hamilton personal notes and details log (I’ve watched the film about 8 times noticing new details every time), and the bullet has been featured a lot!
I'll be honest, before I saw Hamilton on Disney+, I listened to Hamilton a lot and never heard of the bullet. And, strangely I kept seeing her. I mean I saw the other extras too, but she stood out with how much she was around the center of the action. So when I saw her being the bullet at the end, I felt like I knew her and saw her the entire time. Its poetic in a way.
Has anyone else seen the French musical of Roméo et Juliette : de la haine à l'amour?
There they have a character who plays death and it's a similar idea to The Bullet. Very clever and something you don't get from listening on Spotify but watching it on stage (or TH-cam) :)
Imagine having such an important part, so carefully constructed, that most of the audience won't notice but had so much thought put in by the creators. Being known as "The Bullet" and dancing around like a Faith. Arianna has such a cool part
So many little things, this is so cool!
When you start really looking for when she appears, it's really, really clever what they've done with the choreography. :-)
Oh my goodness. Every time I have read or watched something related to Hamilton I was always so drawn to Ariana and I had no idea why. When I watched the play I noticed her acting as the bullet but all these other scenes of her make her character matter so much more to me. She's like a guardian angel of death watching over everyone in Hamilton's story. I guess there was a reason she was always one of the first people I looked at. The Bullet/Angel of Death is my favorite character, I'd love to play that part if I were to get the chance to audition for a production of Hamilton.
i really like her hair, but idk what style it’s called 😔
A natural curly girl with a French twist
It's so pretty
I have a crush on her hair
The first few times I watched Hamilton, I noticed how Ariana DeBose was constantly doing things that resemble death or with the people who encounter death, but I never knew how deep it really was. So like, damn. This video was great ngl
I’m glad that I’m not the only one who catches these things!
My friends call me crazy!! 🤣🤣🤣
More like crazy genius, Ann! 😂
@@FlicksAndTheCity Haha thank you!
This is utterly amazing!!! All the tiny moves that add up to so much in the end.
HAMILTON! Badadadadawawawawadadada HAMILTON! Badadadawadadadawawadada “get you right hand man back”
I noticed the bullet's presence very early on during the show and her importance of her character
"Hamilton was there in the back where it happened"
my dumb brain: no one else was in the back where it happened
💀💀💀💀
Lin is just amazing at writing his musicals. He even gives important roles to the smallest things.
*laughs in having watched Hamilton at least 5000 times*
🤣🤣 I guess you might have noticed the bullet by now then!
I noticed so so much things
same lol
Another bullet moment I like is near the end of The Reynolds Pamphlet when the ensemble is freestyling with all the papers and she is on the floor at the front of the stage, possibly signifying the “death” of Hamilton’s political and moral reputation.
She was actually one of my favorite people. It's crazy how she plays such an important role
Guess what, The Bullet from Hamilton just won an Oscar!
ahhh this makes so much more sense now. It's funny because I was always drawn to her- she's literally gorgeous and her hair is so pretty. I never knew why I paid so much attention to her though. But then when I watched the movie, I realized that she was the bullet when Hamilton dies, and "Sally". Her look reminds me so much of Catherine Parr from Six lol
I’ve seen this 10 times now
I never get bored.
I noticed the bullet, she’s one of my favorite part of the musical, and I always kept my eye out for her.
“The bullet” is also Hamilton’s mum who is shown dying right at the start and explain why she ‘comes back to haunt them’
This really helped me understand the nuance. Thank you!!!!
"Pray that hell or heaven let's you in?"
I thought it was "hella heaven"
I already knew this but I just enjoy watching this.
I kinda feel bad for her imagine how many custumes she has to change into to... as a actor myself that gives me shivers done my spine
This is just amazing, I think she might be one of my favorite characters now. I noticed that part where the ensemble lifted her up to reach Alex, but I’ve never thought so deeply about the rest.. Y’know, we need to start doing a lot more about this girl. The Bullet is literally amazing.
you should do something about the conspiracy that the ending is lin himself (as the author) leading eliza to show her the people that came to see her story :’)
I think also she’s pulled away when Eliza enters not only because she kept Hamilton’s legacy alive, but also let’s not forget that Eliza outlives EVERYONE!
The foreshadow of death I noticed is in Aaron Burr, sir. Burr says "Fools who run their mouth wind up dead." Next person to speak is Lauren's. Then the next time Burr speaks "You spit, Ima sit and we'll see where we land." Hamilton speaks next.
Actually Hamilton doesn’t speak directly after that. Someone asked burr about the revolution then Hamilton interrupted and asked “if you stand for nothing burr, what will you fall for?”
This is just one of the many reasons this musical is incredible in both story, music, and meaning!
