      The birth of an era

      Different from the rural theme of "Brokeback Mountain", "Milk" marched into the streets of the city with great fanfare. While graffiti everywhere, it also wrote a social concept on its own banner.

         A long, far away person in China told their king to govern the country with benevolence and put people first, but the king told him that you were farting. Indeed, China's most prosperous Han and Tang Dynasties until Genghis Khan, Kangxi and Qianlong depended not on convincing people with...

      Your differences are medicine for the world even if the world doesn't know it

      Just got back from BHS. I felt lucky to watch this masterpiece on big screen despite the quality of the tape. What's more special about tonight was that followed by the screening, Stuart Milk, the nephew of Harvey was there to host a Q&A session. Stuart Milk is the president of Milk foundation which does devoted work to support LGBT community internationally.

      The time is late 70s and the place is San Francisco. After a short bio of Milk who is originally from Long Island New York, then...

      Out of the spirit of democracy and humanity


      The documentary drama "Milk"


        was killed in 1978 by Harvey Milk of the Board of Supervisors (Board of Supervisors), which cared about disadvantaged groups fighting for homosexual rights. 30 years later, it was not until 2008 that he was killed. Movies based on the subject matter come out, but it is known that dealing with politically sensitive subjects can only be completed through numerous difficulties. Many of the people mentioned in the movie are still alive. To complete...

      "If there is no hope, not only gays, but also blacks, Asians, disabled people, the elderly, these 'we', these 'we' have no hope, 'we' will give up, I know, people can't just rely on hope And to live, but without hope, life is not worth living, and you, you and you, we're going to give them hope." A milestone in American gay history. ps: mental illness is really a good thing for some...

      When you are in a backward era, never scold the so-called radical people who are at the forefront. At this moment, nothing is overkill. The world has developed to this day, and all mankind should thank them. "eventually we will win, we just want to turn the pages faster" Private perspective: Milk's speech tears several...

    Movie quotes

    • [first lines]

      Dianne Feinstein: As president of the board of supervisors, it's my duty to make this announcement. Both Mayor Moscone and Supervisor Harvey Milk have been shot and killed. The suspect is Supervisor Dan White.

    • [last lines]

      Harvey Milk: I know that you cannot live on hope alone, but without it, life is not worth living. And You... And You... And You... Gotta give em hope. Thank You very much.

    • Sally M. Gearhart: It was one of the most eloquent expressions of a community's response to violence that I've ever seen, and I think that we as Lesbians and Gay men, and all the straight people who where marching with us that night - and there were thousands - I think we said it. I think we sent a message to the nation that night about what our immediate response was - not violence, but a certain respect for Harvey and a deep... a deep... regret and feeling of tragedy about it, because Moscone had been our friend as well.
