milk (2008). directed by gus van sant.


doesn't matter if you gay or not gay - i think everybody should watch this movie. it is as inspiring as watching edward r. murrow in good night and good luck (2005) fighting against uncivilized, ignorant majority who insists that what two consenting adults do in their home is the state's business. it is not. the film is very well done, and god, sean penn was so so good i didn't recognized that it was the permanently-irritated-looking penn as the eternally positive harvey milk. in short the cast was great - emile hirsch, james brolin and james franco. 

the film is unapologetic about milk's sexuality, and i like the feel of the film depicting the climate of the early gay movement. 

a must watch, i say.
