The Times of Harvey Milk (1984)

I should probably rewatch Milk again. I had either forgotten or missed from that film that Harvey Milk’s assassination seemingly had nothing to do with his sexuality and was the result of a a political disagreement amongst former political allies. This documentary focuses tightly on Milk’s political career as short as it was and benefits from its interviews with people who knew and worked with Harvey. It is a dedicated artifact showing his devotion to his community, particularly its LGBT members, even to the point of using political stunts to get his message across.
