Subscribe FreeThe winner of two Academy Awards® in 1993, Philadelphia is the poignant account of a fast-rising lawyer unjustly fired after he shows symptoms of AIDS. It features an outstanding performance by Hanks as the AIDS afflicted lawyer (a closet homosexual) and his unforgettable battle with the prejudice and corruption he faces surrounding his illness. Washington is the across-town, ambulance-chasing and homophobic—personal injury attorney who helps Hanks’ character fight against the prestigious law firm who dismissed him.
