Everett Collection Lin-Manuel Miranda’s musical about Manhattan’s Washington Heights neighborhood got the cinematic treatment last year. Although it didn't make our list of the best movies of the year it's a great recommendation if you want a history lesson about Latinos whose work should be told during Hispanic Heritage Month. Plus you'll get an up-close look at the stories of Cuban-Puerto Rican and

Dominican-American families following their passions and trying to make their "ñ" little French Guiana Email List dreams come true in New York. Miranda apologized after the film was released because there were no dark-skinned Afro-Latinx actors in the film's main roles. "We failed in our attempt to paint the mosaic of this community. I am truly sorry," Miranda said in a statement on Twitter. So keep this colorism in mind when watching and take this title and this entire list with a grain of salt. Victoria Moroles and Kuhu Verma star in the project.
