Based on the stage musical of the same name, the film tells the story of Louis Irnson's constant conscience torture after abandoning his gay lover, Pryor Walter, who has AIDS. Although it is a discussion of AIDS and death and the chaos of the end of the century, it is not blindly sensational. Instead, the author's confidence in life and rare humor are revealed everywhere. Interesting but sobering presentation of a subject that might otherwise seem overly sentimental. In addition to homosexuality and the AIDS crisis, there are also topics such as contemporary American national politics and the crisis of religious belief. Although the scale is magnificent and the scene is spectacular, the plot is flashy, which weakens the compactness and shock of the original drama on the stage of the drama.
