| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
Academy Award nominee Gus Van Sant directs Academy Award winner
Sean Penn as gay-rights icon Harvey Milk. Mr. Milk (1930-1978)
was an activist and politician, and the first openly gay man
to be elected to public office in America; in 1977, he was
voted to the city supervisors’ board of San Francisco.
The following year, both he and the city’s mayor George
Moscone were shot to death by another city supervisor, Dan
White. Mr. Milk was previously the subject of the Academy
Award-winning documentary feature “The Times of Harvey
Milk,” but “Milk” – filmed on location
in San Francisco – is the first non-documentary feature
to explore the man’s life and career.
