The movie "Milk"

Just watched this movie "Milk". I watched it under the persuasion of one of my friends, whom insisted that it was a good film. Not knowing the synopsis, I went in with an open mind, as this film was rated R21. At the start of the movie, it was clear that politics is the gist of the story, and it revolves around this politician "Milk". The story plot that makes it not your regular political film?, the politician is gay. Yes, as an openly declared homosexual, the movie starts off with him hitting on another guy (Scott), where they met in a remote subway station. The story then progresses with his political life which ends after a few years. Well, not in the mood to continue with the spoilers, I am updating with the full story in my next post. This story is definitely mind and emotionally provocative, and though much of it was focused on his political life, a glimpse of his life is also shown vividly in the movie. This movie is definitely worth the watch, so catch it if you can
