MILK

Gay Rights Activist. Friend. Lover. Unifier. Politician. Fighter. Icon. Inspiration. Hero. His life changed history, and his courage changed lives. 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. From senior citizens to union workers, Harvey Milk changed the very nature of what it means to be a fighter for human rights and became, before his untimely death in 1978, a hero for all Americans.

From the acclaimed director Gus Van Sant (Good Will Hunting and Elephant) comes the powerful and inspiring story of California's first openly gay elected official, Harvey Milk. With a powerhouse performance in the leading role, Academy Award winner Sean Penn and supporting cast Emile Hirsch (Into the Wild), Josh Brolin (W, No Country for Old Men) and James Franco (Spider-Man, Pineapple Express), and Diego Luna (Y Tu Mama Tambien) bring this unforgettable story to the big screen.

We are delighted to be bringing TWO EXCLUSIVE SCREENINGS to South Florida in advance of its opening.
