CGiii Comment

The original Milk - and what a terrible film it is.

The only reason that this should survive incineration is as a masterclass on how not to make a film.

The acting is sub-par...but, it's the direction that leaves much to be desired - the narrative arc is all over the place and for such an important story...it falls short of any impact whatsoever.

Ichaso and the writers should hang themselves with shame at this miscarriage of justice.
