During the second birthday scene, one of the songs played is "You make me feel (Mighty Real)" by which performer, who, in real life, was friends with Harvey Milk and did perform at Harvey's birthday that year?
I watched this film a few years ago because I love a biopic when the subject is so well-deserving of one. And I thoroughly enjoyed it. I've mentioned before that I think Sean Penn is a decent actor, but I only really liked him in this film and All the King's Men (with Jude Law and Jackie Earl Haley). I thought Milk was well-done, well-acted, and very well-cast.
Sean Penn, Josh Brolin, Diego Luna (Andor!), Allison Pill (Star Trek: Picard!), and Lucas Gabreel (High School Musical*!). Fantastic all around.
*In High School Musical 2, at the end of "I Don't Dance," Corbin Bleu and Lucas Gabreel emerge from a restroom...wearing each other's clothes. Of course when we watched it, my ex/current best friend and I just wondered what had gone down.
What is Dan's deal? Why does he want to go to a gay man's birthday party, if he hates gays? Why did he invite Harvey to his son's christening if he hates gays? These invitations are threats.
If people imitated their teachers there'd a lot more nuns running around...
Kinky.
"This is our lives we're fighting for."
"How do you teach homosexuality? Is it like French?" 👏👏
Ooooh, Dennis O'Hair from American Horror Story
And Michael Clayton!
The inverted pink triangle, don't see that much anymore.

So many of us knew friends of Harvey, he must have known half the United States.
Sylvester.
Damn I couldn’t remember the name!
Yep. Neat singer. Always good to listen to. His voice just moves you, like the bass line does.

My brother came out to me in '78. I knew for maybe 10 years, but I let him have his moment.
Right around this same time we had an openly gay elected head of the Associated Students of Michigan State University. It was quite a time.
Penn nails the annoyance of talking to a drunk dude who won't remember anything they’re saying the next day
"We lose this now and we'll have anti-gay laws in all 50 states"
Zigster, I just changed my photo in honor of your post. I'd meant to do it a few days ago.
Thank you, beautiful.
Agree. I was actually born to be my child's Mom, and also to tear it up every weekend at Gay Men's Dance Emporiums, so it fits.

Linus would like you all to know that if doggo poo is not picked up, it's not the doggo's fault; it's the hooman's!

Who on EARTH would possibly blame Linus for ANYTHING?
He could drag the Thanksgiving turkey off the table and destroy it, and everyone with even a lick of sense would just "awww" and pet him.
Don't give him ideas 🤣
Oh Linus, nobody is blaming you
Dan
dan, dan, dan...
jinx.
sylvester!
