    “Into the Woods” is a modern twist on the beloved Brothers Grimm fairy tales, intertwining the plots of a few choice stories and exploring the consequences of the characters’ wishes and quests. This humorous and heartfelt musical follows the classic tales of Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, and Rapunzel-all tied together by an original story involving a baker and his wife, their wish to begin a family and their interaction with the witch who has put a curse on them.

    I actually feel like this version of the witch genuinely love Rapunzel. She was just one of those parents who try to shield their children from being hurt and in turn hurts them even more.

    • @SelemaTatsuhiko
      @SelemaTatsuhiko 8 лет назад +336

      +Kexylea The saddest part of this for me was always the fact that in the original story the witch was right for keeping Rapunzel shielded way because she ends up going mad after she finds out that her prince (like Cinderella's prince) has been cheating on her and she flings herself under the giantess' foot and kills herself.
      Afterwards the witch says "This is the world I meant. Couldn't you listen? Couldn't you stay content, safe behind walls, as I could not?" So yes, I really do feel that she did want to keep her safe from the dangers she knew were lurking.
      The movie opted for a much more happy end for Rapunzel.

    • @justess797
      @justess797 5 лет назад +134

      Also, here she says "someone has to sheild you from the WORLD" and in Last Midnight "I'm the witch you're the WORLD" this proves that she want to really protect her and not end up a scapegoat like her.

      You're right. I felt like she did a good job on that, although the songs were more pop, less suited to her voice and strengths, and, for an actress trying to actually 'say' and mean the lyrics, as dialog (or monolog, or anything with substantive meaning), they're problematic, given their relatively generic nature and odd intonation and diction. So, overall, though I think she gave her all and did the best that could be done with all the material in the movie (not just songs), I don't think it's among the best examples to demonstrate her abilities and artistry.

    lyrics cuz i’m jammin:
    What did I clearly say?
    Children should listen
    No, no, please!
    What were you not to do?
    Childrem must see
    No!
    And learn
    Why could you not obey?
    Children should listen
    What have I been to you?
    What would you have me be?
    Handsome like a prince?
    Ah, but I am old
    I am ugly
    I embarass you
    No!
    You are ashamed of me
    No!
    You are ashamed
    You don't understand
    It was lonely atop that tower
    I was not company enough?
    I am no longer a child. I wish to see the world
    Don't you know what's out there in the world?
    Someone has to shield you from the world
    Stay with me
    Princes wait there in the world, it's true
    Princes, yes, but wolves and humans, too
    Stay at home
    I am home
    Who out there could love you more than I?
    What out there that I cannot supply?
    Stay with me
    Stay with me
    The world is dark and wild
    Stay a child while you can be a child
    With me

    To the people comparing this to Tangled, Into The Woods came out way before that movie, especially well before 'Mother Knows Best'. If you need proof, look up the Original Broadway Musical. To add to that, the Mother's are basically the same, except for the fact that in Into The Woods, the witch actually loved Rapunzel, unlike the evil bitch in Tangled. They are the same tale, sure, but the songs hold two completely different emotions. Mother Knows Best was the greed in that witch-bitch that wanted to keep her daughter locked up, in Into The Woods, however, the witch actually keeps Rapunzel in that tower for protection. I love the song, and Meryl will most certainly blow this out of the water with her amazing talents, and Tangled was a spectacular movie as well... but Stay With Me is most definitely not a song to compare with.

" there is a special thing in her voice in this particular moment it makes it soooooo emotional. She is so .. I can't find any words to describe her talent ... Meryl Streep is definitely the best actress ever 🙏💋❤️

  • @SirEriol
    @SirEriol 4 года назад +21

    There are a lot of comments here talking about "princes, wolves and humans". There is a nuance there that is best appreciated in theatre: Cinderella's Prince and the Wolf are played by the same man most of the time, since they are men who struggle with their sexual nature. The witch tries to protect Rapunzel from wolves and humans, and hurts her as much as the Wolf 'coz she is human too.
    The Prince is raised to be a good king and to be charming, but he is a terrible husband and he's not sincere. Cinderella understands this and lets go of her dreams of an easy life so she can help others while the prince goes and does the things he is good at. The Baker is scared of nurturing someone else because he had no guidance from his father. His father comes and tries to help while not getting involved, and the Baker learns from his father's horrible actions to become someone mature who can raise a child as father and mother, even if he now has three friends to help him look after one another.
    The slotted spoon _can_ catch the potatoe. Every rope was once straight rope. Everybody realizes at the end that there is no real judgment they can hold unto others: nature, appeareance and choices are highly influential in us, but while not equal, none holds power over the other two forever.
    "You're so good, you're so nice", says the witch. "I'm not good, I'm not nice, I'm just _right"._
    "Witches can be right. Giants can be good. You decide what's right. You decide what's good". The Giantess was gentle at the beggining, and only started her rampage because they killed her only company. That was wrong. They understood her. They honored her mistakes. And then came to the conclusion that the damage was too much to ever convince her of forgiveness, so the right thing to do was kill the victim so other people could live.
    The wolf, also, is wrong. It's his nature to be that way. It's also his choices who make him that way. Little Red and the Baker learn from his wickedness to be more aware and still remain gentle. The Baker, Cinderella, Little Red and Jack make horrible mistakes and learn from others' and their own, and come to the conclusion that the woods are not to be taken lightly, but they are not something that have to face alone. To be mindful of other imperfection is to honor the fact that you are so too.
    Into the Woods, but mind the past.
    Into the Woods, but mind the future.
    To mind the wolf.
    To heed the witch.
    To honor the giant.
    To go to the festival!
    Into the woods! Into the woods! Into the woods, then out of the woods, and happy ever after!
    I wish.

      I think she thinks she's doing the right thing but she's being extremely toxic and has the wrong idea of what parent child relationships should be

    Watching this scene in the movie theatre made me want to cry, especially since my mom was sitting near my seat. Flashbacks of all the things I had done in the past that made her disappointed and sad flashed through my mind like lightning and my heart was being crushed emotionally. In that one scene, it made me reflect on everything I done in the past that had disappointed my mom and the guilt built up inside that leaked out in the form of tears, I almost wanted to hug my mom and just cry in her arms right then and there as a way of telling her "I'm sorry"
    Stay at home
    Mom is home
    Who could love you more than mother?
    Stay with her
    Stay a child while you can be a child
    With her
    No matter how grown you are, you are still momma's little boy/girl. Stay her child and show your appreciation while you still can with her

    I don't care who you compare Meryl Streep to. This song is haunting and she puts so much emotion into the song that you get those emotions. It's a powerful song sung by a powerful actress that seemed to put all her heart and skill into a song that actually made me cry in the theater. Conveying emotion is the main job of most actors and she clearly pulled that off.

    Her emotions was there, it was sad, it was moving. Honestly, it was the best amongst the others in the movie. In fact, I would listen to it every time and still feel some kind of something dying within me. If not dying, I can feel my inner tears shed ghostly upon my eyes. I have no care of some song from another movie, but I am here to feel the emotion once more. No, I am not a masochist. It is because this is too beautiful to even be described in words. Implied in a good metaphor, yes, but in a literal feeling? I don't think so.

  • @brittanyyanagihara
    @brittanyyanagihara 9 лет назад +15

    One of the most magical, tragic parts of the movie. I was utterly captivated. The moment when the theatre is completely still and you can feel the music flowing through the air. It takes talent to be able to demand silence from your audience, solely because of your performance. I love those rare moments and this scene provided that. Congratulations on your amazing work in this film Meryl Streep!

    What frustrates me most is that individuals whom claim to be artist will sit and compare the quality of talent instead of focusing on individual interpretation. Every artist that brings life to sacred works, text, and coveted roles will always be ridiculed and patronized for simply attempting to bring their own flare and nuances. What I can say is that Meryl Streep brings raw emotion, her chops compliment her voice, and her acting is always impeccable. What I have learned about the one and only Ms. Streep is that she doesn't accept any role she will not give her whole heart to. And, in my opinion, I am ready to die watching her bring life to Sondheim. This woman gives acting and music a new meaning. No need to compare-- my greatest piece of advice for any artist wishing to pursue a meaningful and longevity career is to not compete with masters or other artist at work, but to compete with yourself; give everything that lives inside of you; build a universe and destroy it with the talent you've been given; so that when you die you can at most feel that you've experienced the greatest expression of YOUR art and YOUR gift and YOUR purpose. Because in the end the only thing that matters is leaving a legacy that will live beyond you.

    Witch:
    What were you not to do?
    Children must see-
    Rapunzel:
    No!
    Witch:
    And learn.
    Why could you not obey?
    Children should listen.
    What have I been to you?
    What would you have me be?
    Handsome like a Prince?
    Ah, but I am old.
    I am ugly.
    I embarrass you.

    No!
    Witch:
    You are ashamed of me.
    Rapunzel:
    No!
    Witch:
    You are ashamed.
    You don't understand.
    Rapunzel:
    I'm no longer a child. I wish to see the world.
    Witch:
    Don't you know what's out there in the world?
    Someone has to shield you from the world.
    Stay with me
    Princes wait there in the world, it's true.
    Princes, yes, but wolves and humans, too.
    Stay at home.
    I am home.
    Who out there could love you more than I ?

    Stay with me.

Do not compare because Mother knows best WILL NEVER COMPARE TO THIS. Meryl Streep did a fantastic job! Her voice in this is so haunting, and sounds so real!. Bernadette peters yes she was good, but i find this better. Can't wait to see this. I do hope they kill Rapunzel though to add more of an effect, The songs will not be as strong if they don't.

    • @hanyinlan
      @hanyinlan 9 лет назад +27

      Mother Knows Best does not share the same context or emotions as Stay with Me. There is no way of compare those 2 songs since each song carries a different set of emotions in a context that is only tangentially similar.
      As for Bernadette vs, Meryl? Stage singing is very different from cinema recordings. All the subtleties that Meryl expressed in her version will be lost if you put it on stage. Stage acting/vocals requires you project in a morepowerful and dramatic,manner, which makes Bernadette's version the obvious choice.
