The finest 'political' film I think I've ever seen. I was very gratified that no attempt is made to be 'delicate' about Harvey Milk's personality, either his sex life or his out-sized ego, which perhaps ironically for some, makes him all the more heroic. I will be seeing this one again just for the screenplay. Not one false note in any of the actors � a very complicated story unfolds with absolute clarity. Is it entertaining? And how! Sean Penn's best performance to date � Oscar quality Emile Hirsch riotously perfect (best 'supporting?') James Franco heartbreaking Diego Luna, devastating Josh Brolin, flawless.
