Philadelphia (1993)

Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington are great in everything they do, but their dynamic in Philadelphia will bring you to tears. Hanks's character, Andrew Beckett, has been hiding his sexuality and HIV status from his law firm because he's worried it will cost him his job. When his secret is exposed, thanks to a colleague recognising the illness manifesting itself in lesions on his skin, he's fired. This forces him to take his former employers to court for discrimination and call on a former rival to represent him, since he is the only one willing to help.
