1993
When a man with HIV is fired by his law firm because of his condition| he hires a homophobic small time lawyer as the only willing advocate for a wrongful dismissal
suit.
Philadelphia indulges in some unfortunate clichés in its quest to impart a meaningful message, but its stellar cast and sensitive direction are more than enough to
compensate.
