where is the road

As for Mr. Mlik, I have never heard of it before, because unfortunately, my knowledge of gay history is almost zero. I only vaguely know that from the 1960s to the 1970s, the Western gay rights movement was active and high, and it once dominated the society. considerable influence. Later, with the discovery of AIDS and the confirmation of the transmission route, it declined, and gradually stabilized after entering the 1990s. The film is a biography, which means it's hard to tell if the script has captured the essence without knowing the character. But as far as the actors' performances are concerned, I have to say that each actor's acting skills are quite excellent. Mr. Milk himself, starring sean pann, is quite difficult. First of all, to perform gay as a straight, psychologically, first of all, he has to pass the test (of course, people are old actors, this may be just a drizzle), and secondly, in terms of portraying the shape of the characters, I think he It is a lot of effort, and the character is quite balanced, showing the political life and emotional world of a leader of the gay movement from beginning to end. The second is Emile Hirsch. I couldn't see his face at all in his first appearance, but the scene where I met Mr. Milk on the street was very hard to forget. Emile Hirsch's body language performance at that time was perfect. I don't know if anyone has a similar opinion to me. That kind of detached, floating inner thoughts and the external image of a dusty comrade are quite well combined. It's amazing (Emile Hirsch Hirsch is still young).
Having said all that, it seems a bit far from my title. After watching this film, it is difficult not to compare it with the current situation of gays in our country. When will the gay rights movement that took place in Europe and the United States a few decades ago make it to the social stage of our country? When it comes to politics, it's really hard to tell, because of the way our country legislates and the country's long history of cold treatment of gay people. It makes the disadvantaged group of gays seem to have no rights to maintain (except for the freedom of marriage). But what I want to say is that beneath the surface of false equality is a social reality that is more terrifying than discrimination, the psychosocial pressure that this group of people has to face, and their understanding of the non-LGBT people around them. The huge broken belt and the sad state of having nowhere to face itself will eventually lead to a deformed development of the comradeship in our country. But where is our way? I can't say it well, I can't say it. The ending of this film is painful, as painful as the social reality that Mr. Milk himself has been fighting against. I hope more non-gay people can watch this film and think about the reason why homosexuality is excluded in your psychological nature. what exactly is it.

Milk quotes

  • Harvey Milk: Even though the Castro was firmly our area by 1973 it wasn't safe for us. We would have to wear whistles on our necks or in our pockets and if you ever heard a whistle you would run for help.

  • Harvey Milk: Hey, I like the way your pants fit... Where are you from, kid?

    Cleve Jones: [laughs] Sorry old man, not interested.

    Harvey Milk: I'm Harvey Milk. I'm running for Supervisor. What's your name?

    Cleve Jones: Cleve... Jones.

    Harvey Milk: Well Mr. Jones, we should walk up to my camera shop and register you.

    Cleve Jones: Fuck that. Elections of any kind are a fucking bourgeois affectation.

    Harvey Milk: Is that right? So do you trick up on Polk Street?

    Cleve Jones: If I need the cash... But I'm selective about my clients.

    Harvey Milk: Tell me one thing before you get back to work then. What was it like to be a little queer in Phoenix? Did the jocks beat you up?

    Cleve Jones: I faked a lung disease to get out of PE. So what? What are you, some kind of street shrink?

    Harvey Milk: Sometimes.
