On Sunday night, as everyone begrudgingly adjusted to Daylight Saving Time and braced themselves for the sub-freezing weather this week (it s Fool s Spring in NYC, y all), we got a little bit of sunshine in the form of two new trailers for Lin-Manuel Miranda s
In The Heights.
The movie, directed by Jon Chu (
Crazy Rich Asians), is based on Miranda s 2008 Broadway musical about residents in Washington Heights where he grew up. It focuses on two young men, Benny and Usnavi, and two young women, Vanessa and Nina; their dreams; and the dreams of their families and neighbors.
