The Times of Harvey Milk

1984

★★★★★ Liked

This remains one of the most essential and emotionally resonant portraits of political activism ever captured on film. Sensitive, celebratory, and righteously angry, an all too relevant call to organise, build solidarity, and stand tall in the face of bigotry and oppression.

It shows tomorrow night, presented by Funeral Parade Queer Film Society with a pre film introduction. Be there.

Heartbreaking and hypnotic, plus it's George Clooney in 4K, come on!? One of Soderbergh's best.

Showing tomorrow night at 6pm in our biggest screen.

Loved this. I'm an instant convert to the mystery film at the PCC.

Nothing to say that I haven't already screamed.
