Review of Philadelphia (1993) by Kilian Z — 01 Dec 2010
A beautiful movie. Beyond aids & gay rights, it describes humanity with its bad & good sides, the pro & cons. After, Silence of the Lambs, Demme pursue in the success road & still good about portraying facts in movie.
He always remain close to reality. By the way, in this movie, he always tries to compensate death or negative feelings with a hoping note, each scene has a contrast. I wonder if J. Demme did this movie also because the of the silence of the lambs's character Buffalo Bill & some protesters about a pseudo cliche regarding this character.
Indeed cast is fantastic, T Hank deserves his Oscars. Soundtrack, memorable, with its Springsteen hit "Philadelphia", the introduction sequence itself resumes all that I said previously.
