Harvey Milk


I saw the film "Milk" last night.  Sean Penn does a wonderful job of portraying Harvey Milk, a gay activist in the 70's San Francisco.  There's a sincerity to his character that keeps the film flowing. The film makes you realize that a lot has changed in 30 years, and yet still so much is the same.  There are still so many haters and bigots out there that want to destroy others.  Just look at California's Proposition 8.

It was interesting to see how the film portrayed 1977-78.  Seems like a long time ago.  That was the same year I came to the United States.
