Lin-Manuel Miranda, Stephanie Beatriz and Diane Guerrero say the animated Disney film captured the sounds of Colombia and the loving cacophony of extended family.Nov.
Beyond the characters' super abilities and magical gifts, the animated musical — with songs and music by"Hamilton" composer Lin-Manuel Miranda — aims to show viewers the power of knowing who they and their families are. “When I think about my childhood, it’s a lot of people talking all at once, animatedly, over each other — there’s, like, 10 conversations happening in one room, and as a kid you’re just trying to follow everything that’s going on,” said Beatriz, whose parents are Colombian and Bolivian. “It’s very loud and super rhythmic. I think that the flavor of that, the sensibility of that, is really captured within the music of this animated musical, which I think is very special.
