And the Band Played On - 4 stars


And the Band Played On is the history of the AIDS epidemic. I was looking forward to watching this because I now work for an HIV/AIDS organization, but don't know a heck of a lot about the disease. The historical movie chronicles the early story of the disease, focusing on the outbreak's impact in San Francisco and the CDC's response. It's so well done that it feels like a feature film.
