The Times of Harvey Milk

[lurkerwithout]

A doc on the first openly gay city councilman, San Francisco's Harvey Milk. Who was assassinated, along with San Francisco's mayor, by former council-member Dan White. A well-made piece, though I mostly wanted to watch this before seeing Milk, the Sean Penn helmed biopic. The movie concentrates on the slightly less than a year of Milk and White's time in office. Which includes the fight against the state-wide Prop. 6 which would have banned openly homosexual people from working as teachers...
