The Young Philadelphians [1959]

Academy Award winner Paul Newman stars as a young attorney who seems ruthlessly focused on money, career and social climbing, but who surprises everyone by risking everything to defend a friend accused of murder-and proving his friend's innocence. Robert Vaughn received one of three Academy Award nominations for the film.

Tom Hanks stars as a gay lawyer with AIDS who battles discrimination and ignorance as he hires a homophobic personal injury attorney after being fired from his job for incompetence in this heartfelt and emotional drama, arriving on DVD from Columbia/TriStar Home Video. Presented in the original 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen version (enhanced for widescreen TVs) and offering a closed-captioned English Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack in addition to alternate English, Spanish, and French Dolby Digital Surround tracks, this release also offers optional Spanish and Korean subtitles. This release has absolutely no extra features.
