This is clearly one of the most touching moments in that movie. Yamil Borgess' performance is so strong, so sincere! It knocks me off my feet everytime...

You know, I've loved this song for many years, but it just ocurred to me as a former teacher that he was picking on her because he saw her talent, which I used to do to my students, haha. I've had a variety of interpretations of this song, but that one just ocurred to me, lol, as I was thinking about it from her perspective and not the teacher's.

So many years watching this clip and I always feel the same... love. I love her attitude, her voice, her self confidence. I felt something Morales, I felt everything! Such a wonderful actress and singer 😍👏🏻👏🏻

I’ve watched this so many times and I still cry every time

This is ABSOLUTE ART.

Perhaps my favorite song from the play and the movie.

Honestly I can totally relate to what Diana Morales sings about

How TF do we not have this movie and amazing character shown to us in Puerto Rican school! Que inspiracion!

I think it's the double meaning of "nothing" at the end that gets me, as she obviously feels something at that point, haha, which is the most beautiful part of the song (all of which I love).

You're dancing with your tongue out again, Morales!

I'm so excited because I'm gonna go to the High School of Performing Arts! I mean, I was dying to be a serious actress. I'm so excited because I'm gonna go to the High School of Performing Arts! I mean, I was dying to be a serious actress. Anyway, on the first day acting class- Mr Karp puts us on stage with our legs around each other, one in back of the other and he says: "Okay... we're going to do improvisations. Now, you're on a bobsled. It's snowing out. And it's cold...Okay...GO!" Ev'ry day for a week we would try to Feel the motion, feel the motion Down the hill. Ev'ry day for a week we would try to Hear the wind rush, hear the wind rush, Feel the chill. So I dug right down to the bottom of my soul To see what I had inside. Yes, I dug right down to the bottom of my soul And I tried, I tried. [Spoken] And everybody's goin' "Whooooosh, whooooosh ... I feel the snow... I feel the cold... I feel the air." And Mr. Karp comes up to me and he says, "Okay, Morales. What did you feel?" [sings] And I said..."Nothing, I'm feeling nothing," And he says "Nothing Could get a girl transferred." They all felt something, But I felt nothing Except the feeling That this bullshit was absurd! [Spoken] But I said to myself, "Don’t worry about it, it's only the first week. Maybe it's genetic. They don't have bobsleds in San Juan!" [sings] Second week, more advanced, and we had to Be a table, be a sportscar... Ice-cream cone. Mister Karp, he would say,"Very good, except Morales. Try, Morales, All alone." So I dug right down to the bottom of my soul To see how an ice cream felt. Yes, I dug right down to the bottom of my soul And I tried to melt. And the kids yelled, "Nothing!" They called me "Nothing" And Karp allowed it, Which really makes me burn. They were so helpful. They called me "Hopeless", Until I really didn't know Where else to turn. [Spoken] And Mr. Karp comes up to me and he says, "You know what Morales, I think you should transfer to Girl's High, You'll never be an actress, Never!" Jesus Christ! Went to church, praying, "Santa Maria, Send me guidance, send me guidance," On my knees. Went to church, praying, "Santa Maria, Help me feel it, help me feel it. Pretty please!" And a voice from down at the bottom of my soul Came up to the top of my head. And the voice from down at the bottom of my soul, Here is what it said: "This man is nothing! This course is nothing! If you want something, Go find a better class. And when you find one You'll be an actress." And I assure you that's what Fin'lly came to pass. Six months later I heard that Karp had died. So I dug way down to the bottom of my soul... And cried. 'Cause I felt... nothing.

Theater buffs tend to be like that. They tend to be really overly-critical of film adaptations. I remember back when PAW Duggan made videos, he theorized the reason for this was because fans of the theater would see the stage versions first and basically associate the musical with that performance, so anything different just feels wrong to them.

They really should have stuck to the book of the musical and had her sing What I Did For Love. The actress who played Cassie got it all wrong.

she is good wrastler

I disagree. This movie is perfectly classic to my childhood. One of the only movies I recorded from TV to VHS. I remember every song they sang, and was always way more vested in the dancers than the side plot drama-trauma series.

@@mombear5116 while that’s totally valid, the Zack-Cassie thing is frustrating because of how much time it takes away from everyone else because, let’s face it, it IS the main plot of the movie. Which makes sense; movies need single protagonists to revolve around, and the stage musical was entirely about a group of people who, being background characters, reveal they have lives and hopes and dreams we seldom consider. But in the movie, a lot of that gets undermined so Cassie can sing another song (or more annoyingly, steal a song someone else sang), depriving the others of the opportunities they usually get to be in the spotlight. I don’t think this movie is considered positively (especially considering how beloved the stage version is) because of its attempt to make the focus on any one person rather than everyone.
