Commemorating the twenty-fifth anniversary of Harvey Milk's assassination, The Times of Harvey Milk is one of the landmark documentaries of our time.
In 1978 Harvey Milk was elected to the San Francisco City Council, becoming California's first openly gay person to be elected to public office. One year later, he and Mayor George Moscone were assassinated by fellow Councillor Dan White. The Times of Harvey Milk recreates the story of Milkfs grass-roots political organizing and election, through his shocking murder and its repercussions.
Narrated by Harvey Fierstein ( Torch Song Trilogy) this is an impassioned and profoundly moving portrait of communities in conflict. The film's numerous awards include a Sundance Special Jury Prize and an Academy Award for Best Documentary.
