- Straight Outta Compton comes to mind as a relevant comparison, and it definitely had the AIDS stuff - con_carne May 16, 18:16 4

  - I guess it depends on what part of his life they focus on. - ty97 May 16, 18:27 1
    - Couldn't agree more wrt story. - con_carne May 16, 18:52
  - I think Walk the Line was after Aviator. That was a good one. Didn’t seem to pull very many punches. -- nm - Beryllium May 16, 18:25
