Gus Van Sant MILK trailer
I cried watching this trailer
I love Gus van Sant
I love Sean Penn
I love Harvey Milk
I miss my boyfriend(s)
I miss queer rage
I miss queer activist solidarity protests and hugging in the street and everywhere...
Written by Dustin Lance Black Director Gus Van sant In 1977, Harvey Milk was elected to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, becoming the first openly gay man to be voted into major public office in America. His victory was not just a victory for gay rights; he forged coalitions across the political spectrum.
I cried watching this trailer
I love Gus van Sant
I love Sean Penn
I love Harvey Milk
I miss my boyfriend(s)
I miss queer rage
I miss queer activist solidarity protests and hugging in the street and everywhere
I miss my 30’s when I was hot because the world around me was sexy hot
I miss the hope that despite his rhetoric Obama cannot ignite but Harvey could
I don’t even care if this movie sucks
I already love it
My only hope is that the promo budget is insanely huge and that it destroys the media- and blogo-spheres with rainbow solidarity electricity
