And the Band Played On
This landmark film first aired on HBO at the height of the AIDS crisis and chronicled the earliest history of the epidemic's presence in the United States, along with the heroic, tragic, incredibly humanistic fight against it. With a cast that defines "all-star," including Matthew Modine, Alan Alda, Anjelica Huston, Richard Gere, Lily Tomlin, Steve Martin, and Ian McKellen, this is a film that has lost none of its power to history. NOTE: This film is screening as part of the Tribeca Talks® After the Movie series. Learn more here: Tribeca Talks® After the Movie: And the Band Played On.

Bridegroom
As same-sex marriage marches steadily (if sometimes slowly) towards nationwide acceptance, there are still struggles along the way. One such struggle is depicted in this documentary, focusing on gay couple Shane and Tom and the obstacles that emerge when tragedy strikes. There could be no better time for a film like this to make its way to the people. This feature debut from Designing Women creator Linda Bloodworth Thomason is bound to be one of the most emotionally affecting films in the festival.
