Free Full Length Milk Movies
If you’re considering watching a relatively recent award-winning movie, I’d recommend Milk! For the small section of people who have no clue what the title represents, the Milk movie is not about the healthy drink that’s got from cows, goats, etc. It’s a biographical movie that depicts the life of Harvey Milk, the man who became the first gay person to be voted a public officer in San Francisco, California. Milk also laid claim to the distinction of being among the first three gay persons to do so in all of the United States.
‘Milk’ is the second movie created on the life of Harvey Milk. Before this recent flick featuring the life of Harvey Milk in 2008, the original movie based on the life of Harvey Milk was made in 1984. Name of the original flick was ‘The Times of Harvey Milk’. The movie at that time was not only nominated for the Oscars but also awarded with an Oscar in the Best Documentary Film category. Quality performance extended by the actors of the remake was equally good just like from the actors of ‘The Times of Harvey Milk’. ‘Milk’ got nominated for 8 categories and won the Oscar for Best Actor in a Leading Role and Best Original Screenplay. Sean Penn who devotedly played the role of Harvey Milk was worth that credit.
The filming for Milk was also as authentic as its crew. It was shot at San Francisco’s Castro Street and at the camera shop – Castro Camera that was once owned by Harvey Milk. The movie is based on the lifetime period of Harvey Milk’s life from his 40′s to his assassination. The story starts of in New York where Milk stays with his lover Scott Smith and refuses the suffocating life of staying in a closet throughout his life. His fresh start-up business at the camera shop on Castro Street becomes the advantageous meeting place for the gay members of the San
Franciscan community. Milk basically focuses on the rights of gays in the by gone years and their upgradation. Harvey Milk was one man who really worked hard to change this part of every gay’s life at the time when being a gay was considered awfully shameful. Milk saw many failures in the early years of his life before being voted as supervisor. The realization of the seriousness of the gay rights issue incited a struggling phase in Milk’s life. Two of his colleagues Anita Bryant and Dan White were also elected at the same time as Milk.
Dan White’s role has been perfectly portrayed by Josh Brolin. Dan White is a character with conservative ideas and was therefore constantly “out-voted” by Milk and other supervisors who are liberal. Dan White’s increasing frustrations end up in devastating mess and mark the chilling end of the movie. ‘Milk’ is one movie you should surely go for. It is interesting, emotional and funny. You can watch for free by downloading it from any Internet site.
