You can still watch it via iTunes starting today, and proceeds will be donated to AIDS charities.Cheers, http://www.lifetimetv.com/movies/originals/girlpositive.phpPositive Message'90210's' Jennie Garth returns to the small screen on Lifetime Teenage sexuality, conformity and paranoia have been the ingredients of made-for-TV melodramas, movies and novels for decades. " Girl, Positive " puts a new spin on the old " girl in trouble " genre and stars " 90210 " star Jennie Garth, to boot. Garth plays , and HIV-positive substitute teacher who volunteers at an AIDS clinic run by Ariel (S. Epatha Merkerson). 's not exactly running to tell everyone her status, especially not the handsome vice principal, who can't hide his affections. 's job gives her a window on the highly charged sexual atmosphere of a high school still reeling from the death of ( Von Detten), a recent grad and all-around football hero. We soon learn that was not as squeaky clean as his reputation, a revelation that frightens the school's sexually active population. Before his car-accident death, he had been dabbling in heroin use and had contracted HIV. The film captures the emotional confusion of high school. The movie's obvious message is that students' rash decisions can have lift-changing implications.- McDonough (United Feature Syndicate) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
