VARIETY REVIEWS NEW DOC UNITED IN ANGER

OPENS TOMORROW AT THE QUAD CINEMA IN NYC! LEARN YOUR GAY HISTORY, PEOPLE!

VARIETY:

If the AIDS crisis has crested, it's due in large part to the radical advocacy group so intelligently portrayed in "United in Anger: A History of ACT UP," a documentary that could have been a lot angrier but aims to educate rather than agitate. Providing a historical context for the Occupy movement, the health-care debate, the political sway of the religious right and the culture of the portable camera, Jim Hubbard's feature should find theatrical success in gay-friendly cities, but will have a greater impact via TV, for which it could easily be trimmed to fit.
