If you loved Under Fire, try And the Band Played On

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 Roger Spottiswoode, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Under Fire, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What And the Band Played On is

All the President's Men without Woodward and Bernstein. Bureaucracy and egos clash as doctors and researchers struggle to understand and publicize the emergence of AIDS. A sober, fact-based chronicle of a tragedy.
