Review of The Times of Harvey Milk (1984) by Steven K — 12 May 2013
I'm sure there is a logical answer to this question, as I don't know all the details of the "tomatometer", but how can a documentary that won an Academy Award have "No Score Yet". I can only assume it is because it came out in the '80s pre-"tomato". This is an extremely moving doc and way more powerful than the Sean Penn movie, which I felt succeeded in capturing the spirit of the man but not the times he lived in. How would I know? Because I was there. Watch this masterful doc; it captured history in a breathtaking way. And, for all of you younger gay people who are hitting the streets over.
gay marriage, the maker of this documentary accepted his award and thanked his husband, who was present with him; that was in 1983, and it blew us away. Do NOT miss this documentary.
