Review of The Times of Harvey Milk (1984) by Liam C — 31 Mar 2013

A powerful documentary that deservedly won an Oscar, it depicts the life and events of the legendary man, Harvey Milk. His actions have changed the lives of generations. It is insightful, emotion, respectful and enjoyable.

The time he was in and what he was able to do... It's unheard of, or, was unheard of until one man had the courage and determination to make a difference. And, like all good men, they seem to be taken away from us, way before they should be, a hard hitting and emotion piece that strikes the audience with its sobering images.

Again, telling the eventual outcome of what happened to Moscone and Milk ruins any shock value.
