Product Description

 
In transferring Tony Kushner's Pulitzer Prize-winning play to the small screen, director Mike Nichols has crafted a profound, ambitious masterpiece. The film follows a sprawling group of characters as they navigate their way through the cutthroat New York City of the 1980s, when AIDS began to rear its ugly head. Getting sicker by the minute, Prior Walter is abandoned by his tormented lover, Louis (Ben Shenkman); deluded lawyer Roy Cohn (Al Pacino) is visited by Ethel Rosenberg (Meryl Streep), a woman he helped to condemn; and the pill-popping Harper (Mary-Louis Parker) is on the verge of losing her sanity when she realizes that her husband, Joe (Patrick Wilson), is a closet homosexual.

Like the best works of art, Nichols' production doesn't merely reflect a particular chapter in America's history. It floats deeper, into a world where everyday feelings are elevated to a spiritual realm. Already hailed as a modern classic, ANGELS IN AMERICA is one of the medium's crowning achievements.

Angels in America - Masterpiece Television

Date of Review:  Oct 26, 2004
The Bottom Line: The bottom line prayed to the angels for a shorter review. It got turned down.
Review: It s been a while now since AIDS was front page news every day. A while since I saw the word plague used to describe the illness among gay man in America. A while since AIDS was little more than an unknown, fatal entity without adequate definitions,...

ANGELS IN AMERICA Remarkable, ambitious, important.

Date of Review:  Jan 1, 2004
The Bottom Line: Angels is an impressive and faithful film adaptation of the important 7-1/2 hour 1993 theater event. Don't miss it.
Review: I had read, heard about and seen 30 second clips of various productions of the 7 plus hour theatrical versions of Tony Kushner's 1993 ANGELS IN AMERICA. I knew Robert Altman was once trying to direct it and there were other attempts to film it which...

A great 6 hours (that I have repeated often)

Date of Review:  Nov 29, 2006
The Bottom Line: Thirty words cannot cover a 6 hour event so packed with talent.
Review: I am writing an academic article on the film version of Angels in America and that makes it difficult to review this is why I have put off writing an epinion about it despite having seen it originally 2 years ago and watched it several times since...
