soul possessed

Before this, there was Leonardo in gay biographical films, Rimbaud's "Total Eclipse Love". At that time, Leonardo was as crisp as a green onion. He played the strange and romantic Rimbaud, In Verlaine's palm, a scar was lightly drawn, piercing the heart.
The protagonist of "Milk" is unfamiliar, but after watching this movie, you can feel a kind of greatness. He comes from the free power of a free country, and it comes from every individual soul that should not be suppressed.
Not to mention the topic of politics, not to mention whether the film has beautified or elevated, Milk's shooting still has touching truth. For example, the boy who fell down at the first meeting, was sometimes weak and hysterical, longed to be taken care of, and finally committed suicide because of being neglected; for example, the boy who parted ways and finally watched Chenyang together again. The true love that Milk has, makes me believe that he has enough courage to make all this struggle and overcome it all.
There will probably be prejudice in some corners of the world. Overcoming prejudice will leave many difficult footprints in the history of civilization. Like Milk, who used less than 10% of the people to win 90% of the votes, is still ignored, forgotten, and even spurned by the vast majority of people.
I'm not gay, why should I support you? It has nothing to do with my interests, why should I cry for you?
Milk's efforts, in the end, failed to change the sinking and degeneration of the world. He loved his lifelong boyfriend and finally died of AIDS. If this cannot be forgiven, perhaps Milk's efforts are still lauded in the narrow prejudices of human beings.
When receiving the bad news that Milk was robbed and killed, scott saw the deserted scene in the city hall and asked in return: Is that how no one remembers it? Then he walked to the street, where throngs of comrades came up to him with candles in their hands. Overtake him, overtake him, come endlessly. At this time, Milk's love can last forever.
No matter how treacherous the comrade road is, there are still people who are comrades in life, moths to the flames, one after another. Or just want to bloom for a short time, rather than living in the established world, this kind of shortness may be a more valuable way of life than prolonging life.

    It's a good movie, but it's too far from me

Milk quotes

  • Harvey Milk: [to Cleve Jones] You're going to meet the most extraordinary men, the sexiest, brightest, funniest men, and you're going to fall in love with so many of them, and you won't know until the end of your life who your greatest friends were or your greatest love was.

  • Harvey Milk: Okay. First order of business to come out of this office is the city-wide gay rights ordinance, just like the one that Anita shot down in Dade County. What do you think, Lotus Blossom?

    Michael Wong: I think it's good. It's not great.

    Harvey Milk: Okay, so make it brilliant. We want Anita's attention here, in San Francisco. I wanted to bring her fight to us. We need a unanimous vote - we need headlines.

    Jim Rivaldo: Dan White is not going to vote for this.

    Harvey Milk: Dan White'll be fine, Dan White is just uneducated. We'll teach him.

    Dan White: [suddenly appearing in the doorway] Hey, Harv! Committee meets at nine-thirty.

    [to everyone else]

    Dan White: Hi, you guys.

    [to Harvey]

    Dan White: Um, say, did you get the invitation to my son's christening? I invited a few of the other supes too.

    Harvey Milk: Oh, well, I'll be there!

    Dan White: Great! Thanks.

    [waves at everyone and leaves]

    Dick Pabich: Did he hear you?

    Jim Rivaldo: What the fuck?

    Anne Kronenberg: Are you going?

    Harvey Milk: I would let him christen me if it means he's gonna vote for the gay rights ordinance.

    Jim Rivaldo: [as Harvey is talking] I think he can hear you. Jesus.

    Harvey Milk: We need allies.

    Dick Pabich: I don't think he heard you.

    Cleve Jones: Is it just me or is he cute?
