t's really painful to watch a movie about all the struggles that have already been fought, the victories won, only to realize that they were but temporary and we are sliding back into the gulf. I anxiously await the day when Christian/Mormon fundamentalism's star wanes, when we get to stop listening to this hate disguised as religion tripe. It will be a battle, but I know we can do it.
Well said. I'm a New Zealander, but I wept tears of rage and frustration for many of my friends when Proposition 8 and all that other tripe passed. It might sound silly to hope that a movie will help bring about social change, but I really do. I really hope it humanises the struggle, even if in a small way.
PLZ DON'T GET IN CAR ACCIDENTS, OKAY. *clings to your leg*
Also, ahahaha, oh highschool teachers! They TOTALLY are that boost of confidence every college student needs ;) And that was a wonderful thing your teachers said about you, omg.

Milk might be my favorite movie of the year; I loved it, but it was *so* hard to watch.
