I would like to thank Mr. Bill Duke for directing and producing an eye opening movie. So many people are living with this issue daily. This movie has an all star cast that was excellent. This movie... will open the eyes of not just the Black community but all communities affected by this epidemic. Men need to stop taking others lives in their hands. ***************** with AIDS does not appear sick from the outside only the inside. Wake up people!!! Full Review
