Milk


"Sean Penn (in an Oscar-winning role) stars in this fact-based drama about Harvey Milk, the openly gay activist and San Francisco politician who was murdered along with mayor George Moscone (Victor Garber) by disgruntled city employee Dan White (Josh Brolin, in an Oscar-nominated role) in 1978. Director Gus Van Sant's compelling biopic (nominated for a Best Picture Academy Award) co-stars Emile Hirsch, James Franco and Diego Luna" courtesy of netflix

i wasnt as captivated by this movie as i thought i would be, or as i wanted to be. the first time i fell asleep, the second time i tried to watch it i just lost track of what was going on and the third time i did finish it, its a good story, it was directed very well but i just expected more out of it i geuss, i would still recommend it but i think the expectations are just too high for it. but sean penn and james franco do a great job and i would never believe they were straight :)
