Living in San Francisco, it’s particularly interesting and exciting to see a film like Milk. The movie takes place in San Francisco, back in the 1970s and covers a topic which has been another marker of San Francisco uniqueness over the past few decades: gay rights.
Not only is Sean Penn absolutely incredible as Havery Milk, but the movie does a nice job of making you feel the importance of that California vote regarding discrimination against gays in the workplace. For those of you uncomfortable with such a topic, the film is not a spectacle and gets you to see the struggle as what it really boils down to: a struggle for human rights.
This is an important film to see.
