Katniss Sings 'The Hanging Tree' | The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1

seen the movie on thursday great movie i loved it.

I think Katniss is Lucy Gray's grandaughter. Suzanne Collins wouldn't have put those hints in the ballad of songbirds and snakes for nothing. She was definetly trying to tell us something

I long for the time when we’ll be rising against the 1% marching on the streets singing this song

I have a suggestion : Suzanne Collins should make this book series a series, like Hercule Poirot where evry Hunger Games has its own book. I would read all of it!

They always say there’s nothing more dangerous than a man with nothing to lose

Now imagine a whole country

Coriolanus became Snow after receiving Lucy Gray's distrust. She was the last person who anchored him to his true vulnerable self capable of loving, making 'stupid', not intelligent choices but not to survive, to live. He reached for the sky towards power, status amd greatness and ultimately a part of him was overpowered and indoctrinated by the propaganda , the beliefs about what it takes to survive in an arena-like world by people of authority, like Gaul and his own father. He buried the part of him that loved Lucy Gray or anyone at all deep inside his conscience. So when Katniss stepped into the hunger games , and looked in the eye of the system , and challenged the need for a single victor by trying to swallow nightlock both herself and peeta, it wasnt the rebellion the districts that bothered him much as the rebellion stirred in him, the one he couldve been, Tigris's Coryo, not Snow , the one who he had stashed deep into a mindscape, irretrievable . Katniss didn't challenge Coriolanus. She challenged the man he went on to become. Snow. The man that murdered three. Advertently inadvertently. I feel sad. Maybe things wouldve worked out in a different way if really Lucy and Coriolanus had met under different circumstances. Maybe she could show him how he can't have everything at once. And how he can be happy with one or without another. Maybe he wouldve turned out to be a different man if Lucy stayed by him. Or who knows, perhaps she'd be the 4th person to be killed by him. A person who nearly challenged his value system. Unfortunately couldn't break through the walls. Katniss didnt either. But she broke him. In front of his own damn eyes

this reminds me of palestine vs isreal >.>

If you notice, before she starts to sing, the jaybirds hum the song before started. Could range off a few theories.

Who is the third person Snow killed ????

i was like 10 years old when i watched this in cinemas so i don’t remember it very well. i wish i could watch this in the cinema for the first time again

When I rewatched this with my mom, this scene started and she looked at me and said “you can only oppress people for so long”. Idk why, but it’s kind of always stuck with me

When everyone starts singing and goes to the dam to blow it up, it always makes me cry like a baby 🥺 they knew that the possibility of them dying was on the line but they didn’t care. They were willing to die for their cause and that’s so beautiful in a way. Willing to risk their life so the districts could finally be free. & when all the people climbed in the trees to kill the peacekeepers. They did the same exact thing. They seen everyone getting shot but they didn’t care. The just wanted to get the job done because they believed in their cause so much and had so much faith that one day everyone could be free. It’s heartbreaking and beautiful at the same time.

I think the guy who asked her to sing is so adorable 🥹 (I forgot his name) he was one of my favs

Здесь есть люди, которые солидарны со мной. Голос Китнисс и её неловкое стеснительное начало песни - чётко кореллирует с тем, как постепенно разрастался пожар сопротивления. Её голос и исполнение - для меня всегда были и останутся идеальными. То, как девушка из деревушки могла бы спеть в реальности. Не вычурно. Не пафосно, не обёртывая песню, как конфету, в красивый фантик. Спасибо Китнисс Эвердин, ты в очередной раз утёрла всем нос❤
Пойду ка я пересматривать тебя, дорогая.

ever since i’ve watched mockingjay the hanging tree is stuck in my headd

This song reminds me of the Palestinian suffering

Birds and songs have always been tools of resistance. May the Palestine sunbird soar once more, and soon.

You know who the real tyrants of today are? The corporations and the business owners who prevent the permanent liberation of workers. This world belongs to the working class. Only the working class has the right to govern this world.

"It isn't a song. It is a lifestyle."

This scene is probably my favorite scene ever. It sends chills through my body every time I watch it(even though i’ve seen it dozens of times).

All these years. This song still makes me cry 😢

Yeah good tune for all Arab nations should play for Gaza

this go side by side with what's happening right now, gave me the chills.

The song was for snow and then became a song for the rebels ( against snow)

When the choir starts it's wonderful

Thinking about how Snow felt about mockingjays in Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes vs. Gale's comment "now they'll never shut up"....

This was the lake where snow and lucy swims. Almost boundary of district 12-13

one of the most powerful scenes of the franchise.

The moral of this story is that we must lead ourselves and use the good virtues to govern ourselves

“The Hanging Tree” - A song by Lucy Gray.

The girl who came so close to stopping the rise of the monster we know as President Snow. The girl who managed to escape his grasp, and would continue to haunt him for the rest of his life. 60 some odd years later, it’s only fitting that her song would serve as the anthem for the second rebellion.

Though her name may have fell through the cracks of Panem’s history, the spirit of Lucy Gray is very much alive; inside Katniss, and in the hearts of all those who sing her song. Lucy Gray may have escaped his grasp, but in the face of the second rebellion, with her song as its anthem, Coriolanus Snow cannot escape Lucy Gray. After 75 years of carnage, the time has come for Snow to fall.

Who else had this song popping into their heads when the new movie just came out?

Il suo canto muto dopo l'esordire dell'imitatrice uccello.Chi non ha voce non può capire chi capisce chi non ha voce.♥️♥️♥️l'amore é un unico sentimento, chi c'è l'a crede di non averlo , non sá né di tutto un po' né di quanto poi.

Ma chi resta sá💙

This is crazy haunting. Even more after knowing the history behind this song. Lucy Gray made this song and this song became the revolution song to take snow down.

If you really think abt it shes not really sining the hanging tree bc its not wear a necklace of hope its a necklace of rope still amazing scene and performance

It’s so sad that the song was used against snow to try to take him down, to help the districts join and start to take down the capitol, but it was written by someone who loved him and suffered because of him. Imagine being snow and hearing this, your enemies using a song that the one you loved who tried to kill you wrote and sung.

The mass of despwrate but determined people who had nothing to lose did more in one action then any group of peackeepers could hope to do

This scene shows us that at the end of the say we as humans created in gods image we can only see these horrific events and live our daily lives among the horror that there is a point that we must take action and we understand that our lives are here to futher a greater cause in our liftime. And I would like to thank any curently or veterns who are or did serve us and defended us

Sir they've . . . started to sing

Not gonna lie Snow reminds me a lot of the Netflix series character Miguel Felix Gallardo. Both have such smart and ambitious minds only to be swallowed up by greed and forget what’s most important.

Man I need to rewatch this

After reading/watching Balled, this song has a whole new meaning to me

So grateful for this song. Because of it now when my country has started a horrible war I can feel that I'm not the only one who sees all the terror, not only one who wants to revolt

Thats the sound of snow falling ❄️🥀

Whatever happened to Lucy Gray?

This song, written by a young girl many years ago, was actually the beginning of a revolution...

one of the most powerful moments of Mockingjay pt 1

when was this ? i don’t remember it

I like it much more the way Jennifer Lawrence sings it. Her voice is superior.

I loved Coriolanus because no wonder he is pissed but Lucy gray he would be so proud

Lucy Gray sang it so well🥰
