13427857, It's a Sin, HBO
Posted by Nodima, Fri Mar-19-21 05:15 AM
Finally getting around to this after a pod I like raving about it for weeks and...yea, this is some good shit. The HBO production of Angels in America still lingers around in my subconscious and this is a perfect modernization of that play/story.

It's got the same penchant for creative flourishes and turning normal conversations into metaphors and allegories, but since it's from the UK perspective it has the interesting perspective of the AIDS crisis being a mostly U.S. (New York) borne illness that the rest of the world struggles to take totally seriously...which also makes it probably the best COVID-related thing to come out so far.
