Their beliefs, their love, everything fell apart

The film depicts sensitive topics such as gays and AIDS in the 1980s. At that time, no one knew what AIDS was. AIDS was called a cancer that spread among gay men. The government did not recognize the existence of AIDS, and did not recognize the rights of gays. There is also infighting between them, are they coming out aggressively, or are they hiding everything in order to keep their jobs? The best thing about the movie is the gay guys breaking down, helpless because they don't know what's killing them, their beliefs, their love, everything is falling apart, those episodes are so well done.

In The Plague Survival Guide, I learned about this work by author Kramer. So it is a tragic story that never ends, because it was written in the initial years of the struggle. The ordinary heart, the ordinary heart, the same heart as everyone else, EQUAL. "But why do they just watch us die"? The woman's narration, Tommy's eulogy, and N's monologue while taking care of F are all moving. It's hard to watch, but like someone said, there is more hope.

Men do not naturally not love. They learn not to. So sad to use Alexander for metaphor.
