1981年，艾滋作为一种前所未见的免疫系统缺陷疾病在纽约出现。由于它集中发生在男同性恋当中，所以在当时又被称为“同志病”。内德（马克·鲁弗洛 Mark Ruffalo 饰）是一个激进的同志作家，当他看着朋友纷纷死去以及政府的不作为时，义愤填膺的他发起了男同健康危机组织， 呼吁政府和社会公众对这场即将爆发的大瘟疫给予重视。半身瘫痪的女医生艾玛（朱莉娅·罗伯茨 Julia Roberts 饰）是少数从一开始就高度警惕艾滋疫情的的医护人员，也是内德重要的异性恋盟友。在运动中内德认识了纽约时报记者菲尼克斯（马修·波莫 Matt Bomer 饰），两人陷入如火如荼的热恋。然而菲尼克斯最终也被确诊感染，悲痛的内德惟有爱人和事业两线作战。健康危机组织的主席布鲁斯（泰勒·克奇 Taylor Kitsch 饰）虽然是内德最好的朋友，然而深柜的他行事风格与好斗的内德截然相反。执行董事汤米（吉姆·帕森斯 Jim Parsons 饰）一直试图平衡两人，却无法消弭越来越大的分歧，一场决裂迫在眉睫。而此刻已是艾滋在美国蔓延的第四个年头...... HBO电视电影《平常的心》改编自托尼奖同名戏剧，作者拉里·克莱默亲身经历了80年代的艾滋风暴，他以自己为原型，将纽约同性恋人群以及艾滋病人的生活和感悟写进剧本。电影不但描绘了早期艾滋运动的真实和复杂面貌，而且呈现了同志争取权益的曲折与必要性。无论身处怎样的时代和环境，去爱、去追求爱都应该与生俱来的权利。 ©豆瓣
"The Normal Heart," a poignant 2014 HBO Films and Plan B Entertainment production, delves into the harrowing early days of the AIDS crisis in the United States. Directed by Ryan Murphy and based on Larry Kramer's semi-autobiographical play, the film captures the urgency and despair of the 1980s as the gay community grapples with a mysterious and deadly disease. At the heart of the story is Ned Weeks, portrayed with fierce intensity by Mark Ruffalo, a character inspired by Kramer himself, who becomes an outspoken activist fighting for recognition and action against the growing epidemic. The film's emotional core is further enriched by the performances of its ensemble cast, including Julia Roberts as Dr. Emma Brookner, a wheelchair-bound physician who becomes one of the first to sound the alarm on AIDS. Matt Bomer delivers a heart-wrenching portrayal of Felix Turner, a closeted New York Times reporter who becomes Ned's lover, adding a deeply personal dimension to the narrative. The chemistry between Ruffalo and Bomer, coupled with the film's unflinching depiction of the societal and political indifference faced by the gay community, creates a powerful and moving experience. Beyond its compelling performances, "The Normal Heart" excels in its meticulous recreation of the era, from the bustling streets of New York to the intimate, often claustrophobic spaces where the characters confront their fears and losses. The film does not shy away from showing the physical toll of AIDS, yet it balances these scenes with moments of hope and resilience, highlighting the strength of the community in the face of overwhelming adversity. The screenplay, penned by Larry Kramer, is both a testament to the real-life struggles of those affected by the crisis and a call to action that remains relevant today. In its entirety, "The Normal Heart" stands as a vital piece of cinematic history, offering a raw and honest look at a pivotal moment in the fight for gay rights and public health. It serves as a reminder of the importance of activism and the impact of collective action, themes that resonate deeply in any era. Through its storytelling and emotional depth, the film not only honors the memory of those lost to AIDS but also celebrates the enduring spirit of those who fought tirelessly for change.
