If you loved The Prom, try The Normal Heart
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Ryan Murphy. If that's the register that drew you to The Prom, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Normal Heart is
Philadelphia without the courtroom. In early-80s New York, a tight-knit group of gay activists and doctors fights to raise awareness of a mysterious new disease. Mark Ruffalo leads a strong ensemble in this adaptation of Larry Kramer's play.
