Philadelphia, a city known as brotherly love, also has the selfishness and ruthlessness of human nature. Andrew is gay and one of the best lawyers in the most famous law firm in Philadelphia. He loves his profession and cherishes every case and every opportunity that the company gives him. When he learned that he was unfortunately infected with AIDS, I remember the scene in the movie, he rushed to the bathroom and then covered his face and cried; however, it is even more unfortunate that he also faced the company that he invested the most energy in because of his illness. Conspiracy to fire him on trumped-up charges for AIDS. He was surprised, but he would never admit defeat so easily. So he kept looking for lawyers, one after the other, again and again... There are a lot of people out there who discriminate against homosexuals, those people think homosexuality is dirty and disgusting, so they look down on these people. At the same time, when it comes to treating AIDS patients, most people choose to avoid it without hesitation. It is precisely because Miller saw this and sympathized with him that he chose to help Andrew.
When Miller and Andrew are in the same camp, it means that a legal and moral war has begun. The United States has the "Declaration of Independence", people long for freedom, and everyone longs for equality, so can there be real equality between people, or whether normal people and homosexuals, and AIDS patients can truly achieve equality? Andrew acted as a warrior and took responsibility for defending their freedom and rights in this defense, he didn't care what others thought of him, he just wanted to let everyone know that no one was there just because of his sexuality , that his illness framed him and prevented him from doing what he loved and revered. There's an opera in the movie, 'Do you hear the heartache in her voice? Can you feel it? ''I bring the pain to the one who loves me the most'' 'Love came to my heart in the pain' 'Live, I am life', Andrew clenched his cane, as if to grasp his fate in his own hands, He brought pain to his parents, his partner and all who loved him, so he must triumph and use his victory to soothe their pain.
"Philadelphia, the city of brotherly love, the place I call home, don't turn your back to me." Everything does not exist alone in one extreme. The Philadelphia of brotherly love made Andrew see the indifference and selfishness of human nature. , and at the same time gave him the warmest companionship. I think it is because of Andrew's righteousness that his partner was able to take care of him and love him when he was suffering from AIDS; Miller was willing to help him and represent his voice; what made me unforgettable are the The fair judge in the court, he gives equal opportunity to any party, he does not take sides, but he always believes in equality, when the jury reads the final verdict, this judge must be proud that law and morality are not Conflicting, and the laws we uphold have always defended human rights.
The film begins with a cheerful and inclusive slice of life in Philadelphia, and ends with a cheery party atmosphere where Andrew's growing up video is recorded, documenting his joyous life as a normal human being that no one will ever know. Forget him, and he went to heaven, but also will not forget there is such a story in the Philadelphia of brotherly love.
