The Times Of Harvey Milk

This Oscar-winning film chronicles the rise and assassination of Harvey Milk, America’s first “out” gay politician. The Times of Harvey Milk follows Milk from his arrival in permissive, laid-back San Francisco through his activism for gay rights, culminating in his election to the city’s Board of Supervisors and his murder by fellow Supervisor Dan White. The film captures the passion, politics, and humor of Harvey Milk (recently depicted by Sean Penn in Gus Van Sant’s Oscar-nominated biopic), and stands as a powerful testament to his continuing legacy.
