1. WOW! looks good! I'm not a Penn fan, but he looks incredible in this clip
maybe it's the gay rubbing off and making him likable for me. lol thanks for loading this.

2. you should rent "The Times of Harvey Milk". It's a documentary.
It's amazing! Lots of great archival footage. It won the Oscar for best documentary.

5. I'm tearing up just watching the trailer.
I was living in S.F. and was part of that community at that time. I'm still not completely over the loss of Harvey Milk and the travesty of the Twinkie defense.

I will see it. Thanks for posting!

6. Do have any links to the speech he was giving?
"No matter how hard they try, they can never erase those words"

That one?
