MILK Review.

Out of 5 stars, I award this film 6.

What Gus Van Sant, Sean Penn and a brilliant cast have done here is Outstanding, Triumphant and Necessary.

This film doesn't just tug at your heart strings, it exposes your eyes, your ears, and at that instant your hearts to a poignant matter. It sits you down in order to allow you to grasp a deeper, more complete understanding of the history of the Gay Rights Issue. More than that, it allows you to identify with the prevalent human struggle for understanding, freedom and acceptance but above all, the basic, innate compulsion for love. This film's message goes beyond the Gay Rights Issue, It's about the humanity, It's about acknowledgment, It's about recognition, It's about acceptance, It's about hope. Not just for any one minority but for everyone. Do not miss this film! Despite whichever side of the fence you stand, watch this film and consume it's message.  Let it weigh your character, Let it measure your heart and I can only pray it finds you wanting equality.

Please, I proudly implore you, go out and see it.
