Reviews
USA Today - MILK has one of the finest ensemble casts this year and a magnificent, career-topping performance by Sean Penn, who disappears into the title role, New York Times - Harvey Milk was an intriguing, inspiring figure. MILK is a marvel....A fascinating, multi-layered history lesson, In Style - Absolutely brilliant, Heat - A life-affirmingly vibrant, witty and deeply compelling film, Variety - [T]he filmmakers have crucially infused the story with qualities in very short supply today -- gentleness and a humane embrace of all its characters..., Time Out - Sean Penn is electric, Rolling Stone - It's a total triumph, brimming with humor, heart, sexual heat, political provocation and a crying need to stir things up, just like Harvey did, Los Angeles Times - Penn, as we've come to expect, is extremely persuasive as someone with a different, more offbeat kind of charisma than many of his previous screen roles....Franco is a nice match for him....It's a powerful story

Additional Information
MILK is director Gus Van Sant's riveting biopic about slain gay rights activist and San Francisco city supervisor Harvey Milk. Based on the politically resonant and thoroughly timely screenplay of documentarian Dustin Lance Black, Van Sant follows the arc of Milk's political awakening, from closeted Brooklyn insurance executive to doyen of San Francisco's Castro district's burgeoning gay Mecca in the 1970s. Sean Penn portrays the film's hero, melting into the role with an affable flamboyance that is both spirited and eminently engaging. James Franco plays opposite Penn as Milk's supportive and easygoing boyfriend, Scott Smith. The couple's cheerful and loving rapport lends buoyancy to the film's overall message of hope as Milk ascends from grassroots community organiser to a galvanising figurehead in the push for gay civil liberties. When Moral Majority crusader Anita Bryant forms an initiative to root out gay teachers and their supporters from public schools (Proposition 6), Milk is pitted in a bitter battle against fellow City Hall supervisor Dan White, played by Josh Brolin. While Van Sant does not deviate from the expository conventions that have defined other biopics, MILK sticks to biographically pertinent details that serve the film's underlying message of one man's idealism and conviction in the face of repression and bigotry.

Great film, great acting
Great film of its time and now so relevant. We must remember those who paved the way for change by making a stand. Sean Penn’s performance is outstanding. Powerful film.

Powerful and vibrant
A great story, an important part of history whether you are Gay or Straight, with fantastic central performances by Sean Penn and Emile Hirsch in particular. It will make you want to live in 1970's San Francisco and wonder why we don't fight for things like this anymore. Well worth buying!

A real treat
Great acting and gripping story. I can see why Sean Penn received an award for his performance - he managed to do gay without being camp, amazing. Will probably watch this one again which is unusual for me.
