Details: MILK has an original score by Grammy and Emmy Award winner Danny Elfman ("Batman," "Desperate Housewives). CD includes Danny Elfman's score and the following songs: "Everyday People" (Sly & the Family Stone), "Queen Bitch" (David Bowie), J.S. Bach - Prelude No. 7 in E Flat (The Swingle Singers), "You Make Me Feel [Mighty Real]" (Sylvester), "Rock the Boat" (The Hues Corporation) and "Ah, quegli occhi! Quale occhio al mondo" - Tosca (Maria Callas/Giuseppe Di Stefano). Academy Award nominee Gus Van Sant ("Good Will Hunting," "My Own Private Idaho") directs Academy Award winner Sean Penn as renowned activist Harvey Milk. Milk, the first openly gay man to be elected to public office in America, was assassinated in 1977, and is today recognized as an icon and a leading figure in the gay rights movement. In addition to Sean Penn, the cast includes Josh Brolin ("No Country For Old Men") as city supervisor Dan White, the man who first befriended Milk and then notoriously shot both he and the San Francisco mayor George Moscone (Victor Garber). MILK is tour de force performance by Sean Penn as the lead character, and he will certainly receive an Oscar nomination for this role. In real life Harvey Milk was witty, charming, insistent and completely memorable. Penn captures Milk in all his brilliance. Photos: Phil Bray
