Powerful filmmaking

Rating: Null/10 (4 August 2019)

Who'dathunk that a political drama could be so involving and watchable? Well, this one is. It feels very simple and straightforward, but Sean Penn's portrayal of Harvey Milk is so charming and powerful that you fall under his spell really quickly. You find yourself rooting for him, so when he finally wins his 4th election attempt, you almost want to jump up and shout in celebration. Very powerful filmmaking and highly recommended.
