- <p> For the most part, the smattering of feature films that
- have tackled the subject of AIDS have lived all too quietly in
- small urban art houses. But that may soon change. The upcoming
- People Like Us brings the controversial cinema subject into the
- mainstream with an endearingly mainstream leading man. Tom Hanks
- will be featured in the Jonathan Demme film portraying an
- attorney infected with HIV. Hanks takes his high-powered firm
- to court when he realizes he's been fired because of his
- illness.
