In the 1970s, New York businessman Harvey Milk met Scott Smith, a handsome young man on his 39th birthday, and the two quickly fell in love. Later, they moved to San Francisco and opened a photographic equipment shop in partnership, doing a small business and being self-sufficient. Their small shop has gradually become a gathering place for gays in San Francisco. Milk quickly brought together a group of friends with his affinity and leadership. At the same time, he noticed the unfair treatment of homosexuals by the local government and police, which made him decide to run for politics and change the world with his own power. Although at first Milk was repeatedly defeated, with the help of a lesbian assistant, he was finally elected as a government inspector. Unfortunately, because Milk put too much energy into politics, Scott left him. After being elected, Milk used the media and speeches to expound his political views, and soon won the strong support of the mayor of San Francisco. While Milk was calling for a bill to promote the legal rights of homosexuality, Dan White, a politician who had failed in his political career, secretly launched his assassination plan.

Very powerful gay film, not like Van Sant's style, because the actors are too powerful, Sean Penn's performance is really amazing, even though it is a good film, he still resists being gay, and some parts are too hypocritical
