Too much of everything

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

'The Time of Harvey Milk' is not your typical assassination story. There isn't any espionage or sniper rifles or masterfully calculated plot devices. The story is far too... real. Harvey Milk is ultimately just a normal person. I use the word normal because Harvey Milk is just so relatable and was relatively unknown until this doc won an academy award and more recently Sean Penn took on the man's inspirational story. There are so many examples of honest-to-god humanity in this doc: the virtue of persistence, the struggle between peace and violence, the importance of self expression. The assassination itself is complex and becomes less about the killing and more about the system within which it takes place. With all of the gay politics and progress taking place in the 21st century, this story still rings poignantly true and casts an empowering glow for those still struggling. Pop it in your disc drive and see for yourself.

After I saw the movie, I think we should to learn how to esteem the others who are not similar with ourselves. Even the person has the different sexual orientation. Harvey Milk is a successful political, but he was been killed because his sexual orientation. The same thing has no chance to happen in Taiwan. Because I think people should know the violence couldn't solve any problem. I felt so pity after saw the movie. But I felt so lucky in the same time because in this society, more and more people learn how to esteem the others that decrease the probability of violence. In the movie, we can learn many things. Also could to think what should we do when we meet the same thing. The documentary is that I strongly recommend.

In fact, I don't like documentary film. However, I must say I was impressed by his status after I watched this film. He was a politician and a gay. In my opinion, he is a courageous man. He did not care who he was. He still strove for gay rights and for his dream. He just wanted to do himself. His deeds were not for fame, not for money. He just wanted everyone could treat them as ordinary people. In that times, you would be excluded when you did something different. In addition, people couldn't accept new concept easily. But he did not care what the mass thought about. It is hard to do that. If I were him, I would not do that, and I would take myself as an ordinary person. I think his spirit also stay in your mind. He is really a courageous man.

Harvey Milk was the first person who represented gay people in the states at the time. He proved that a gay guy could also do something big. He helped thousands and thousands of people who were afraid to come out from the closet(about 15 years ago, there was no place for gay people to hang out). He was also a great supervisor cause he leaded the people who really believed him to achieve their purposes and also fight for their rights. I was kinda astonished at the news of the murder. We know Harvey Milk died but his achievements would never fade away.BTW!the movie was kinda too long. we spent like 2 hours to finish it.
