- Evan Hansen (Ben Platt) and his friend Jared (Nik Dodani) begin to write fake emails from Connor (Colton Ryan) in order to make their friendship appear real in 'Sincerely Me'.
What is Dear Evan Hansen (2021) about?
A screen adaptation of the hit Broadway musical, Tony, Grammy and Emmy award winning Ben Platt (Pitch Perfect films) reprises his role as Evan Hansen, an anxious, isolated high-school student who's aching for understanding and belonging amid the chaos and cruelty of the social media age. He soon embarks on a journey of self-discovery when a letter he wrote for a writing exercise falls into the hands of a grieving couple whose son took his own life.

THE TWIRL WHEN HE SAID "I love my parents! "
I LOVE THE TWIRL
Right?! 😁😁😁
FR LMAOO
YESS
YESSS
that part on the racing track where connor is just sitting there while evan steers is a fantastic touch. just a subtle reminder that evan is the one puppeteering this whole thing.
Also connor’s dancing on the table - specifically dancing like a marionette
I never thought about it that way. I like that touch 😆
Also, Connor’s steering wheel isn’t connected to anything, which further signifies that Evan is in full control.
Oh wow I didn't even notice that! I can't believe how dark this part of the movie is, but this song is a bop
@@ModelY303 Ok honestly they probably didn't put that much thought into it cuz a lot of go-karts are literally just made like that
this is the only moment of genuine happiness i felt when watching the film
That is pretty much the way the play was planned.
It is also the only moment of genuine happiness you feel when watching the stage musical also. The one time I sat up and thought to myself: "Oh my God there IS choreography!" "Sincerely Me" is my favorite number in an otherwise preachy and drab score.
i agree with you both!! but as someone who likes the musical, what i meant here was the entire rest of the film was quite trash apart from this (and not in the good tragedy way, but in the This Is A Bad Adaptation way)
@@leenakhanye it was horrible
@@leenakhanye It honestly was pretty shitty.
The actor for Connor in this movie was so great, they should have used him more. Such a shame. His voice is amazing.
Exactly.
Removing the concept of Evan interacting with his spirit was just a bad idea.
i will never forgive they didnt include Disappear
Apparently he was an understudy for the role of Connor in the Broadway musical, such a shame really. He's pretty talented and did a far better performance than Ben Platt even with the limited screentime he had
I LOVE COLTON RYAN
His voice is INCREDIBLE
Also a nice detail I noticed, they never change Colton's outfit since Evan has never seen him outside of that outfit so that's what he imagines him wearing all the time
Eh, flimsy. Movie makes it clear that he stalked Zoe. He’d definitely have seen Connor in different outfits, even if it’s just him getting in and out of their parent’s car at school.
@@wrmsnicket ngl, I do not remember the movie so I forgot he did that
@@wrmsnickethe didn’t stalk her he mostly only saw her at school or parties whenever he was also there. Conner and Zoe probably also never interacted at school or parties since they don’t have a good relationship and it’s very unlikely Evan would follow her to her car which would be the only time her and Conner would really interact
@kharonhaden5136 Evan would not be the type to go to parties. He has crippling (social?) anxiety, remember? Just like he saw Zoe at school, he probably saw Connor too. They do not need to be together for that to happen. Even in passing, Evan would have seen different outfits.
@@Usedfood004 I think that person meant like school parties cuz in the movie Evan did attend the school dance
"i like my parents 😐👍👍"
"who says that???"
"i love my parents 💃🤗✌️😚"
Im feeling awkward:
I’m feeling aloha
Honestly, this is what the entire movie should've been. Speaking as someone who hasn't seen the stage version, I think if this movie was re-written as a dark comedy rather than playing it straight, then it would've been so much better.
The stage play really focuses a lot more on that dark comedy aspect, so I would highly suggest checking it out! (There’s a ton of free high quality bootlegs on the internet)
Honestly the show should've as well. There's a ton of overwrought drama in the stage show, it produced a lot of good songs imo but also a show that I can't stand to watch past the third musical number.
@@kay5197 do you mind sending a link or website to watch them i've been looking for over a year now
@@higuysimcharley unfortunately for the stage play you gotta go to either west end or Broadway or any theater that plays DEH
@@tokiovigai369 And you might not even get tickets to the west end show, considering it's going in october :/
I mean you can tell Colton had fun filming this with the dance parts
Colton was asked in a YT interview if he just romped through the choreography. He said, no, it was really hard work, they rehearsed it for three weeks, and he was unsure of his abilities. Of course, he’s absolutely great, but even the most talented people get nervous.
Yeah and especially when he's on the table he nearly fell off but caught himself at the last second.
So much fun! Lol I love it!!
The took out one of the best parts of the song…”we’re close but not in that way, the only man that I love is my dad.”
Unfortunately, neither one of the characters "Loves his Dad." Evan feels abandon by his father who got a divorce, a new family, and moved away. Connor has a step father. Good, bad, or indifferent they are seldom loved. I know I had three of them.
@@1106gary That's what's great about the line, cuz it's just another lie in the pile of lies that the e-mails are 😆
I agree. I love that part
@@1106garywhoosh?
Omg yeah...
In that first verse, you can plainly see Conner actor barley keeping his composure. I wonder how many takes they had to do without him laughing
Yeah he's laughing while he rubs his nipples. 😂
Colton is a fine actor and all round performer, but the stage versions of Connor look and are costumed to be more difficult and rebellious. Here he looks just too wholesome.
@@1106gary he honestly looks like every other high schooler tbh
@@gavino0077 True. My question is "In this scene Connor is either a ghost or a figment of Even and Jarred's imagination. So why do other people see him and move out of his way?"
@@1106gary If you can imagine Connor bopping down a school hallway, you can imagine kids getting out of the way.
every song in the movie feels so awkward because there's just a dude bursting into song in the middle of the cafeteria with everyone ignoring him but this one works really well because it's an imaginary scenario.
Exactly. I hate how this movie adaptation came out. For a good idea of what musical format can look like in film, watch Crazy Ex Girlfriend. I wish this movie had done more with the music and choreography.
Connor’s treatment in the movie was stupid. In the musical he’s in it all throughout its run time. In the movie he’s in it just a couple times after he dies. They could’ve used him more.
in the book hes included even more lol
@@dylantheloony Connor: Boo, I’m watching bitches
Cause in the musical, he acts as Evan's conscience. But in the film, it is unnecessary since they can put things in perspective through proper cinematography. Also, they like Connor to be mysterious in the movie for his ending revelation to be more senseful.
Precisely, I wish that they would have included Connor as a ghost, and given Colton Ryan more screentime.
I think that's the best thing about the movie. Dead is dead. In the musical, Connor's death is a joke.
it still amazes me how Colton and Ben are only a couple years apart and yet I can easily believe Colton to be a highschool student but not Ben. He just looks off in this whole film. loved Colton's dancing in this though! His performance throughout this whole song was just *chef's kiss*. So sad that he was barely in the movie after this number.
I relate, in the new West Side Story I truly believed Riff(Mike Faist) was around 20
The actor genuinely looks perfect for Conner lmao 😭😭
Dude...Connor's (don't know actors name), voice, expressions, and dancing is so adorable. He was perfect for the role 😭💘
Danny Pino
His name is Colton
@@joewhitehead3 Thats the actor of connors dad
its actually Colton Ryan
its in the description btw
Mike faist did better in the production tho
That "CRAAaaAK" was hilarious
When?
@@luigi4life913 0:57
Love that thumbs up too by Connor!
and his voice cracked too 😭
I actually love how they incorporated the dance. This song is a bob and it's always making me smile.
This song is such a Bob
It's about psychopaths
@@Small-Chap W phycopaths
no they didnt, if u say im wrong give me a timestamp of it
@@yeetemussheeshemusbruheiat3994 2:10
It's kind of hilarious that Jared is the one to clarify that Evan and Connor aren't gay for each other in this version when he is the one to push the gay narrative in the first place 😂
I think they wanted to give him more lines 😭
Maybe he was being sarcastic
@@mwndjddjdhdbbf8408 Yeah I think he was just being sarcastic, i love his character in this 😭
also because the character is gay in the movie maybe
The guy who plays Jared in the film kills it, I love all his line deliveries
00:24 - "ugh calm yourself hunny" the best line in the movie.
literally all the guys in this are gay istg
It’s so iconic 💅
This was probably one of my favourite parts of the movie. It was just a nicer and happier moment and felt like a great way to escape into a better reality where there was no suicide or depression and everyone was just happy.
I completely agree
It was also the closest moment to it being an actual good musical movie
Ok, Colton won me over when he started dancing.
Really wish he was in a better adaptation.
Colton Ryan is seriously a brilliant performer. He has subsequently been on Broadway in other shows, as well as TV movies. Of course, the saddest thing about this happy number is that it’s not real, just a figment of Evan’s imagination. At the end, Connor sings “A Little Closer,” which is the real Connor, a painfully lost soul. (P.S., I saw Colton today in the Broadway show, “New York New York.” He’s so multitalented, and it was a great show)
You should see him in alice by heart
@@Cozycovegaming bro I love Alice by Heart
and hes super chill! i met him at a theatre camp i went to and he was so cool!
@@elisabethclark9989 OMG YOUR SO LUCKY I WANNA MEET HIM SO BAD AND JUST TELL HIM HOW GREAT HIS VOICE IS AND EVERYTHING
He also was an understudy in DEH on broadway
I love the detail that Connor is always wearing the same outfit while Evan is wearing a different outfit in every scene. Because that’s the only outfit Evan ever saw the real Connor in.
3:16 they're voices blend SO NICELY right here 😍
2 mins in cant skip it
OMG UR RIGHT WTH
this is one of the few parts of the movie i actually liked-- if the entire movie (and even the original musical) played more into this dark comedy instead of trying to justify Evans actions then it probably would've been a hit
also get an actual young adult to play Evan
I agree with everything you said, especially about the original stage musical. Unfortunately, it was--and still is--a hit.
I don't think they were trying to justify Evan's actions. They were explaining why he did what he did. There's a difference.
You aren't supposed to like anything Evan does. He's not a hero. If they gave absolutely no reasoning for his actions he would just be an unfeeling psychopath and you'd have little connection to the story at all. He's a regular person with flaws which he overcomes over the course of the story
@@Neighman And it's not like he did anything with pure ill thought and intention.
I thought this right away after seeing the movie then I found out the producer is the actors father.
"We're closet but not that way, the only men that i love Is my dad" that's the best part of the song but they didn't put it :((
Yesss, cause it's not even a gay joke, it's a fragile masculity joke. I think whoever thought It might be ofensive and took It out did not get the point
@@YamiRovi25 i don't think they thought it could be offensive. it was just a little bit bad lol.
It’s actually because they changed his dad from his dad to his step dad, and the lyrics no longer worked. I think they wanted to add more conflict between Connor and his Dad by using that. Stupid change but meh.
Also the song makes no sense since they also added the fact Connor had a boyfriend before he died, so the only guy he loved wasn’t just his dad, it makes no sense anymore 😂
Well it also makes sense since Connor didn’t have a good relationship with his step dad and obviously that like for Evan doesn’t make sense either. The way they altered it to just Jared singing both the lines and then them cutting him off bc of the childishness was actually pretty smart
@@orangesngrievers461 well since evan doesn’t have a clue what connor’s actually like he wouldn’t throw in anything like that bc this is his fantasy version of the friend he always wanted. If this was brought up in the musical i think it would have been a really interesting way to show the difference between Evan’s fantasy connor and the real person. Fantasy connor can easily say he loves his parents. Fantasy connor likes all the things evan likes. Fantasy connor isn’t gay, or picks fights, or does hard drugs. And that’s the version of connor that everybody mourns.
obviously Mike Faist is a bloody brilliant actor but we can’t compare the two. i love Colton’s performance here and even though i love Mike this was amazing as well. Colton has a beautiful voice and he just looks much more like a “bad” or “troubled” kid than Mike did on Broadway, Colton just acts and moves in a very charismatic way and it’s great ❤️
Colton should have been given more to do!
Fun fact: Colton Ryan was actually the understudy for the role Connor Murphy for the stage version of DEH. At some point, he also understudied role Evan Hansen in the stage show.
HE SOUNDS LIKE KERMIT THE FROG WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU
@@janedoeslostsoulglad I’m not the only one who thinks so
@@marallenrondez2606he understudied for all three boys in this song (so Connor, Evan, and Jared)
the 'woah' tiktok dance step on 1:29 caught me off guard the first time I've watched this lol.
My fav part tbh
Colton Ryan sure is one cute and talented performer. His rhythm during these dance moves is amazing.
Yes !!!
He is so Handsome and Multi talented ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I ❤️ His Performance on this scene so much 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Ben Platt's voice crack when he said "crAcK?" made me cackle-
This song is my favourite to watch mainly because unlike the rest of the musical scenes, this one has actual choreography.
And from a filming perspective, they did this musical sequence perfect where they did everything else wrong
The "Oh my God" at 1:37 is the exact moment when Even Hansen actually becomes a monster. He starts getting into the deception. How this was so easily forgiven in the show and movie is inexplicable to me.
Read the book.
@@samhenley7156 But I shouldn't have to read the book. But thanks.
Cringe
I for one never understood why Evan gets so much blame. He tried to tell the truth, but Connor's parents didn't want that. So he told them things they wanted to hear and that he wished were true. It didn't harm any one. And after all, Evan is already seeing a shrink.
@@1106gary because sometimes what others want isn’t the best outcome. You’re preventing these people from living in reality, and instead giving them a fantasy, an illusion that doesn’t actually exist.
Which just builds up and makes the pain even greater when the revelation is uncovered
Omg, actual energy in this movie?!
AND the characters talking like actual human beings?!!!
...I take back everything I said
I just noticed Connor hit the woah in 1:30
Every time I see that clip i actually start crying
the one unironically good part of this movie
Besides the fact that Connor kinda sounds like a muppet 😭
*@Bee-ln4ox* Connor Muppet
2:39 This frame is absolutely terrifying
I LAUGHED
THATS EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT
"but not because theyre gay, no, not beca-"
"WELL ANYWAYYYYY"
LMAO
The twirl on "I love my parents" part 🤣🤣
2:52 me when they skip the only man that I love is my dad
IKR, i was so sad about that
@@carterjordan1296 i wasn’t. no homo jokes are so dated and tired
@@save_bandit true
@@save_bandit cringe
I kinda found it corny tbh
At 1:21 we're reminded that he's a puppet with that dance :(
In this song, He kinda is… Remember this is all a lie😅
them dancing to bon bon chocolat by everglow on dance dance revolution in the last scene is absolutely crazy to me
I think Colton was genuinely the best part of this film, there were close to no good moments but Colton managed to actually catch my attention in both his introduction and this song unlike the rest of the scenes (or in if I could tell her where I walked out of the room because ew.). He portrayed his character amazingly and I was sad that they didn't include him in other parts of the film as they did in the stage production
The cool part about this movie is that most of the songs (except this one) weren’t studio recorded. They were recorded on set to get the best vocals.
0:44 the twirl! I can’t get over the twirl
2:39 HIS SMILE!!!!!!!
2:26 has to be my favorite part 😂
The my bad makes it even better
“My sister’s hot~ 🎶”
“What the hell? 😐”
“My bad 😏”
Okay, so this is the imagination on what a close friendship could he have built up with an already dead guy, who he has pratically never ever talked to. Seems legit.
It's worse, it's fabricating a fake friendship by writing falsified emails between you and said dead guy to convince his parents that you two were actually friends lol
This is absolutely no slam on Mr. Platt, but Colton Ryan is what I call a triple threat - acting, singing, and dancing. I love Ben's voice... but I'm not sure I would've been disappointed to see Colton play the part of Evan Hansen.
I realize this may be an unpopular opinion. :)
He absolutely should have been cast as Evan. Not Connor. I fully agree. But Ben and his father would have it otherwise.
Looking at the dancing numbers, you can see that Colton Ryan is the better dancer of the two. Ben Platt is always just a second behind him. But I love this movies and song.
I like him as Connor cause we get to see him dance all crazy and expressive. I mean, I'm sure he'd have done great as Evan, but then he'd have to be a sad boy the whole movie.
@@djmotiseBen was the reason this movie got financing. Colton Ryan is unknown and movie studios rarely take chances on unknown actors.
@@misspriss2482Ben's daddy is the producer so I guess that's why he couldn't backed out
The dance is actually so good
Knowing that Colton has played Evan on stage as well
He was the understudy for all three-Evan, Jared, and Connor.
@@susantherestorer i know
tbh they could've saved this movie some embarrassment by casting colton as evan instead
@@rory_gilmores_coffee Too good looking.
WHY DID THEY MAKE HIM HIT THE WOAH
Let's be real, the songs are the one and only good thing about this movie 😭😭
YEP LMAOO
Disagreed, the actors are good
@Walking Earphones lmao the movies famously bad
In my opinion Ben as evan was poorly cast but this is one of my favorite songs from the movie and Broadway
I actually really loved the movie tbh. It’s not as bad as people are making it out to be. One of my favorite movie musicals. Obviously not better than the musical but I loved it
Colton Ryan is a great dancer, I enjoyed this number.
“My sister’s hot”
“What the hell?”
😂😭😂😭😂
“My bad” 😐
I want to spotlight the extra on the left in the yellow shirt. The entire shot, she is just standing there, pointing at the claw machine. It's so strange and awkward, but in a funny kind of way.
I think she's talking to the claw machine
I love how Colton Ryan is holding back to start bursting into laughter because of how ridiculous everything is 😂😂😂😂
DID HE JUST HIT THE WOAH?!?
why did connor have to hit the woah 😭
0:58 "crAaaAAC-"
"Urgh, calm yourself hunny."
The only part of the film I liked.
One super small detail that I notice is from 2:30 to 2:38 , Connor and Evan both have the same computer, possibly being a subtle reference to the fact that Evan is the one writing the letters and doesn’t know what computer Connor has. (or they just have the same computer, idk)
Probably just product placement 😂
Not only was this the best part of the movie, I actually like this performance better than the original stage show. Didn't know who Colton Ryan was before this but I'm a fan now! He killed it!
The fact that Connor wasn’t in this movie more should honestly be labeled a hate crime…
2:13 ben literally fumbled the grapple thing and they left it in. They left a blooper, in the movie! I have no words
Just watching this made me realize they would have became actual good friends. If he hadn't read Evan's letter they would have continued talking. This is jus devastating.
Everyone saying lin can't sing, he like most definitely can. Because if he couldn't he wouldn't be in the movies and musicals he has been in. 100% can sing better than all of us
2:44 but not because they’re gay or european
“Eugh, calm yerself heouney”
I know this is out of place but on the first "Sincerely me!" I swear Connor did the woah.
Yes.. yes he did
You mean dab?
I went into this with extremely low expectations but even though some of the musical performances would have done SO much better as just spoken scenes (like Words Fail and So Big/So Small) I gotta admit this movie grew on me. 😊
he hit the woah. 😞
I’ve always liked how the movie turned out and seeing this scene again makes me smile since it’s one of the songs I’ve always liked
3:02 love this dance. you can see more of Ben Platt in it. love it
This is probably the best adapted song in this movie. Connor's actors at least gets a chance to shine here! Also, it's a funny song, thought it needs much more energy than they have here... This movie had potential! I hope something good came out of it though
Colton Ryan is an incredible actor there is no other choice for Connor wish he was in it more
Colton Ryan is the best part of this movie.
“My bad🤭” had me dying😂
The movies Music track is louder than their voices and im so annoyed by that, i feel i can barely hear their singing
Ben doesn’t look anywhere NEAR a high school student.
1:38 My reaction when I just finished my 10 assignments, research, and papers then our teacher gave another 10 tasks to do.
I understand people want a younger person to play evan, but I still believe platt was amazing for how old he really is, even though it couldve been thought as creepy, i just love platts voice
2:44 " But not because they're gay, no not because-" "WELL ANYWAY-" 🤣
I love this clip because Colton kills it but the amount of people who have no knowledge of the musical and trying to compare this with how they think it goes is actually painful
That's not all he killed 👻
The ending of this song gives me "I can't believe, that it's finally me and you, and you and me. Just us, and your friend Steve" vibes
Despite the same song being performed in both the movie and stage version, it's amazing how much better the stage version ends up being.
I think I personally like the movie one more tbh, the voices here are more distinct
Connor’s actor has and AMAZING voice!!!! I wish he could’ve been in more songs and scenes in the movie version
the way that if u don't know abt evan hansen and only rly know this song then you'd think its a really cute audio to edit ur friends to or ur fav celebs
@@eyereeenah I only rlly watched the musical a few months ago, I can’t listen to this song in any edits now
Has been hard... Has been bad... Has Been ROUGH!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Best of Conners lines!!!! He threw so much sass into that!!! I love it!!!
2:30 makes me weak in the knees
🤨🤨🤨
This is the best part of the movie... And it still looks so awkward and weirdly directed. like the audio ain't even mixed right. When they're dancing together it works though
I have a never ending rage towards this movie. That is all
Why?
I think it could’ve been better, but yeah, it’s not the best. I mean, I like it, but the Broadway version is probably better. (I haven’t watched it on broadway yet haha)
The way they did the song in this movie is probably the only really good thing in it. Everyone in it is amazing, even Ben is good
I just want to share the story of how I discovered Dear Evan Hansen the Musical version. So Szin is a talented animator and she did Sincerely Me. I thought it was such a beautiful, cute, wholesome and catchy way of telling his friend that he misses him and that he hopes the best for his wellbeing with a comedic touch. Then I saw the replies of the people who were explaining what the song actually meant as well as the summary for the musical, I swear I've never been more confused at the amount of, "Oh he's singing about a kid who killed himself and they were never actually friends," AND I WATCHED THE MUSICAL AND I BROKE DOWN CRYING.
Connor Murphy hit the fucking whoa....
It can't just be me that thinks Colton Ryan is fine af
specially next to 56 year old ben platt
@@riqrimoli lmfao
I loved they timed the clap @3:11 with the video game. :)
Why aren't Connor's parents worried that they're son is rhyming in emails.
REALL
LMAO I THOUGHT OF THAT THE OTHER DAY
As someone who hasn't watch the stage play, this movie was very good for me. Some scene was very hard to watch, but otherwise I felt like they had a proper resolution.
0:58 crAck?
Voice crÆAak
I love how Connor "Whoa"s at 1:30 lmao
