I'm hearing from multiple friends that the new movie "Milk" is astoundingly good. My friend Chris (not Chris in Paris) just sent me the following email:
I don’t know if you’ve seen Milk yet, but Jose and I just got back from seeing it. Absolutely amazing. I usually avoid seeing movies that include characters that I know—not that I knew Milk—I was one of those kids who heard the word “gay” for the first time when Walter Cronkite reported his winning. But I’ve run across more than a few of the characters in the movie during my time working with the Bay Area – the writers and the actors just nailed it. And it couldn’t have come at a better time.
If you haven’t seen it yet, you have to. Sean Penn is absolutely breathtaking in this. The reviews are not an exaggeration.
