AIDS Documentary: Well Worth Your Time
“How To Survive A Plague,” now playing in NY, LA, and SF, is absolutely worth seeing. The director, David France, describes it not as an AIDS documentary, but as a tribute to members of the gay community who battled the crisis. Among them was Peter Staley (pictured). For people under 40, who think the world started the day the iPhone was launched, the movie will be a complete revelation. For those of us over 40, the movie stirs up painful, poignant memories of what it was like to live through those years.
