Milk, which is the story of the first gay person ever elected to public office (Harvey Milk), is probably the biggest movie this year for the GLBTQ community. It's been a major box office hit, and been nominated for Academy Awards for the acting of Sean Penn and Best Picture.
I saw it last night, and was entirely blown away. It's such an emotional story, and also a little bittersweet to realize that we are still fighting some of the same issues that Harvey Milk so ardently fought against 30 years ago.
Anyone else see it, and what did you think? Spoilers are okay, because this is a true story, so nothing much to spoil.
