The Normal Heart - HBO (TV movie)
[Source]
The Normal Heart (2014)
TV Movie - 133 min - Drama - 25 May 2014(USA)
A gay activist attempts to raise HIV/AIDS awareness during the early 1980s.
Director:Ryan Murphy
Writer:Larry Kramer (screenplay)
It's a HBO television film adopted from the same name play "The Normal Heart".
I haven't watched the play. I wish I lived in the US. I hope I'll be able to watch it someday.
The original play were Off-Broadway production at The Public Theater in 1985, and it was revived in Los Angeles and London and again Off-Broadway in 2004.
In 2011, the play debuted on the Broadway.
Also it was performed at Arena Stage of Washington, D.C. for three weeks in July 2012.
In Canada, a production produced by Studio 180 Theatre at Buddies in Bad Times theatre in Toronto, Ontario.
Matt Bomer's performance was amazing which almost made me believe that he was really ill.
And I kind of become a fun of Mark Ruffalo.
The scene where Tommy (Jim Parsons) recieved a notice of someone's death and took a card (dead person's name was written) from an address card holder and put it in the desk drawer made me so sad.
Anyways it was a good film.

Matt Bomer Reveals How His Kids Reacted to His Dramatic Weight Loss in The Normal Heart

Matt Bomer transformed himself for HBO's The Normal Heart, losing upwards of 35 pounds to play a closeted New York Times reporter who contracted AIDS in the early '80s. His appearance in the film is haunting, and the 36-year-old actor made sure his three sons knew their dad was healthy in real life.
"We definitely prepared our kids really early on, before I even started losing weight," says Bomer, who married power publicist Simon Halls several years ago. "I spoke with a professional who told me how to relay it to them in language they could really understand, and they were great about it. Maybe it's a luxury of having all boys, who are like 'Yeah! Go!' You know, it's like they were my cheering squad. And I remember, at one point I had lost 25 or 30 pounds and I came home, and it's such a testament to childhood imagination, because they were like, 'Oh, I thought you were going to be skinnier than that.' And I was like, 'Hey, I'm working here!' But they were really great about it, and understanding. I think that our oldest son, who tends to be a caretaker, said at one point, 'When are you going to get to eat pancakes with me again?' But that was about as difficult as it seemed to get for them."

Though it was difficult, losing weight gave Bomer invaluable insight. "When the cameras were rolling, I wasn't having to affect anything; so much of it was already there," he tells Vulture. "I had separated myself from my family, I was living on my own for like a month, and I think that helped me sort of get into Felix's head in a way that I haven't had an opportunity to do with other characters before."
In a separate interview with HIV Plus magazine, he goes into further detail about his movie makeover.
"It was sort of one month of casual weight loss and then two months of really aggressive weight loss, and that's when I left my family, toward the end of the second month, and then just lived on my own in New York and really tried to focus on really solely what Felix was going through," he says of his character. "I obviously consulted someone and I prepared our kids as best I could, but I felt it was best for me to be away at that point in time until I sort of finished the project and could start eating again."
The Normal Heart premieres tonight at 9 p.m. on HBO.

The Cast of 'The Normal Heart' on Bringing Gay Rights to the Big Screen
6:00 AM PDT 4/8/2014 by THR Staff
Matt Bomer, Mark Ruffalo, Jim Parsons and Taylor Kitsch share why they wanted to be part of Ryan Murphy's drama that took 30 years to make.
"One of my big hopes is that people whoi did not experience it directly will A have an understanding of what people went through at that time, but even more importantly, that fact that gay mens health crisis and ACT Up really catalyzed the gay rights movement," says Bomer. "We really stand on the shoulders of these people for the rights we have today."

DIFF 2013 Red Carpet: Michael Urie
Published on 5 Jan 2014
Andy Warhol famously said that in the future, everyone will have their 15 minutes of fame. But for lots of people, simply being famous isn't enough; you've got to be more and more famous, "way more famous" even.
Enter indie starlet Halley Feiffer, who plays an exaggerated version of herself in this increasingly meta commentary on fame and filmmaking. Feiffer is best known for her role in the 2005 film THE SQUID AND WHALE, but when she suddenly loses her boyfriend, career and agent all at once, she embarks on a shameless mission to become as famous as she possibly can.
Fueled by sangria and desperation, Feiffer ropes her brother Ryan (co-writer Ryan Spahn) and his boyfriend Michael Urie (the film's actual director) into making a movie that will project them all into a higher level of stardom. What ensues is an over-the-top, star-speckled romp through the sweet highs and gritty lows of the quest for modern day fame.

Tom Daley Comes Out

WATCH: Tom Daley Comes Out! Says He’s Happy And Dating A Guy
Though there has been a fair amount of speculation, and many a furtive wet dream, leading up to this moment, Olympic diving twunk (twink + hunk) Tom Daley has come out.
In a video he posted to his YouTube today, Daley admits he’s only been willing to talk about things with which he’s comfortable. Now that he’s in a serious relationship, having met and fallen for a guy recently, he’s been able to take a figurative dive by publicly acknowledging his sexuality for the first time.
“Now I kind of feel ready to talk about my relationships,” Daley says. “Come spring this year, my life changed. Massively. When I met someone. And it made me feel so happy. So safe. And everything just feels so great. Well, that someone is a guy.”
Daley says he was “taken by surprise” by his new relationship, and though he still “fancies” girls, he says he couldn’t be happier.
Maybe that’s what that clandestine coffee canoodling with Dustin Lance Black was about back in October. Perhaps he was seeking coming-out advice. Or maybe there was something more. Either way, mazel! Welcome to the family, Tom. In celebration, here’s a gif that never gets old:
Congrats!
