Angels in America is phenomenal! Set in the 80's the film (cable miniseries) is about the lives of several people living in New York who are affected, in various ways, by the AIDS epidemic. Funny, philosophical, tragic and at times, fantastical. Great performances from an ensemble cast including (Jeffrey Wright (Basquiat), Meryl Streep (A Cry in the Dark), Al Pacino (Scarface), Patrick Wilson (Little Children), Mary Louise Parker (Weeds) and Justin Kirk (Weeds).
