Milk

No I'm not talking about the liquid substance we put on our cereal.
I'm talking about the film Milk. Starring Sean Penn and James Franco.
The movie tells the story of the last 8 years of Harvey Milk's life. For those that don't know, Harvey Milk was a gay activist, and the first openly gay person to be elected to local government in California.
Anyway, this movie is really inspiring and I thoroughly recommend watching it.

It's quite possibly Sean Penn's best performance yet in any film, right up there with I am Sam.
