"No one would take on his case... until one man was willing to take on the system" Thus goes the tag line.And why would nobody take the case of Andrew Beckett(Tom Hanks), not because he doesn't have a valid case, but because he is a homosexualand **he has Aids.
A combination of 2 things hugely taboo in the American society of early nineties. Andrew Beckett is an excellent lawyer, charming person and he works in the top legal firm in Philadelphia.
Because of his exceptional work record and a single minded devotion to his work, he keeps scaling the professional hierarchy faster than usual.Yet Andrew is about to enter the most difficult phase of his life the culmination of which will result in his death, as he discovers he has AIDS.
