Jonathon Demmes suberp masterpiece is simply breathtaking. Tom Hanks well deserved his Oscar win, and even though I dont support gays, I still cared about the main character (who was gay) because they are still human beings. What happened to him was wrong and immoral and throughout the whole film youre rooting for Hanks side to win. Denzel Washington was excellent as the only lawyer who would take Hanks case, and even though he didnt like gays himself, he still learned that they are still human and just as caring as any other guy on the block. I was surprised Neil Youngs Philadelphia song at the end of the movie lost its Academy Award to Bruce Springsteins Streets Of Philadelphia. Im not just saying that because Im a huge Neil Young fan, for I like Bruce Springstein too, but I felt Neil Youngs song was so much more emotional. Every line that was sung from Neils voice at the end simply made me shutter. But anyways, the film is very good. Tom Hanks best performance ever and deffinitely worth seeing. Was this review helpful?

Sign In 0 out of 0 users found this helpful The Shadow of IgnorancePosted: 2/20/2003A review of Philadelphia by lowellv70 An important statement in our time. Andrew Beckett is a promising young attorney who has just been appointed Senior Associate to his firm. He seems to have everything going his way until his physical health rears the ugly truth of HIV into his future. On top of other adjustments, he finds that his goodtime professional associates have deserted him and have faced him with the hopeless task of a lawsuit against his own firm for wrongful termination on a trumped-up charge to mask their own prejudice. He turns to his only solace, a 'storefront' lawyer who is a total stranger. Together they must face a legal behemoth to set an important precedent in the ";City Of Brotherly Love";. This is a very timely subject that was handled skillfully by all concerned and earned Hanks a well deserved Best Actor Oscar. Also sporting a visionary and poignant sequence as Beckett recounts a scene from an opera; never before attempted in this manner as far as I know. Count yourself among the few and the proud if you can find 'B' movie mogul Roger Corman in a brief cameo. Julius Irving: Himself Was this review helpful?

Firts of all, it contains the 2 great actors of our time. Hanks should have received 5 oscars for his part in this movie. A must see Was this review helpful? Sign In 1-7 of 7 Per Page | ||
