This Oscar-winning documentary is beautifully extraordinary. It's tragic and simply wonderful. Accurately symbolizes the generation that was changed by the poltical service of the first openly gay elected official. Harvey Milk was, is and always will be one of the most tragic figures in the political history of the United States. His murderer, Dan White, also responsible for the murder of Mayor George Moscone, served only 5 years in jail for double homicide, simply because he was rich and white.
I am expecting the highly anticipated Gus Van Sant film, "Milk" which is based on this documentary and will come out in cinemas late 2008. Sean Penn will star as Harvey Milk and we can only hope that the movie will be coequal to the documentary. -
MCT:April 25, 2008A gripping documentary about a rising political star whose life ended in tragedy. I wish it was more balanced with the interviews though. There was a trial and the verdict was depicted as unjust, and the only opinions the film gave were those of Milk's closest friends (who, of course, would view the verdict as unjust). I was interested in the motives and the defense's argument of Dan White (the killer), but it didn't elaborate much on that. It's an interesting watch though.

Won best documentary Oscar in 1984 and rightfully so. This tells the story of a man who helped change the rules for gay rights in America. A nice slice of some political history.
