That was at the height of the AIDS epidemic, and people knew how it was spread.<br>It was a death sentence then, and he knowingly infected many women.

The Hollywood money machine doesn't care if someone's literally dying on their feet , the show must go on.

It looks like Hugh Jackman mixed with Robert Downey Jr.

Why characterize him as powerless victim of the Hollywood machine? He had choices to make and he made them. And most of them were very selfish.

Once you sign that contract you're basically signing your life away.... They don't care about anything except for ratings and making their money

i was feeling bad for him until the part when it came that he continued to have sex, he then became a SUPER spreader and my sympathy went out the window. It's sad, really sad. There are other things to be said about him based on this video, but I do feel bad for those that love him. I had an aunt who died of AIDS and my family has spent decades denying the virus

"Wiseguy" was a great show. Probably a decade ahead of its time.

I loved him in The Idolmaker. Still one of my favorite movies to this day.
