1
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:12,074
2
00:02:31,702 --> 00:02:37,472
This is Harvey Milk speaking
on Friday, November 18th.
3
00:02:38,842 --> 00:02:43,302
This is only to be played in the
event of my death by assassination.
4
00:02:47,052 --> 00:02:49,482
During one of
my early campaigns,
5
00:02:49,552 --> 00:02:55,452
I began to open speeches with a line
and it became kind of a signature.
6
00:02:56,122 --> 00:02:59,292
My name is Harvey Milk
and I want to recruit you.
7
00:03:01,062 --> 00:03:05,592
If I was speaking to a
slightly hostile audience
8
00:03:05,672 --> 00:03:09,732
or a mostly straight one, I might
break the tension with a joke.
9
00:03:10,242 --> 00:03:12,642
I know. I know I'm
not what you expected,
10
00:03:12,712 --> 00:03:14,302
but I left my
high heels at home.
11
00:03:17,812 --> 00:03:23,212
I fully realize that a person
who stands for what I stand for,
12
00:03:23,282 --> 00:03:24,752
an activist, a gay activist,
13
00:03:26,092 --> 00:03:30,612
makes himself the target
for someone who is insecure,
14
00:03:30,692 --> 00:03:33,822
terrified, afraid
and disturbed themselves.
15
00:03:33,892 --> 00:03:38,422
It's a very real possibility you
see, because in San Francisco,
16
00:03:38,502 --> 00:03:42,302
we have broken a dam of major
prejudice in this country.
17
00:03:42,372 --> 00:03:45,392
Room 200.
I'm in the mayor's office.
18
00:03:45,472 --> 00:03:49,272
We are trying
to ascertain what is happening.
19
00:03:50,082 --> 00:03:52,202
As President of the
Board of Supervisors,
20
00:03:52,282 --> 00:03:54,712
it's my duty to
make this announcement.
21
00:03:55,652 --> 00:03:59,482
Both Mayor Moscone and
Supervisor Harvey Milk
22
00:04:00,522 --> 00:04:02,752
have been shot and killed.
23
00:04:06,832 --> 00:04:10,852
I wish I had time to explain
all the things that I did.
24
00:04:10,932 --> 00:04:13,872
Almost everything was done
with an eye on the gay movement.
25
00:04:23,412 --> 00:04:24,902
Hey. Hey.
26
00:04:26,882 --> 00:04:28,242
I'm Harvey.
27
00:04:28,682 --> 00:04:29,912
Okay, Harvey.
28
00:04:31,652 --> 00:04:33,022
Today's my birthday.
29
00:04:33,992 --> 00:04:37,682
No, hey, actually it is
my birthday. At midnight.
30
00:04:37,762 --> 00:04:38,822
Really?
31
00:04:39,662 --> 00:04:42,362
And, believe it or not,
I don't have any plans.
32
00:04:43,832 --> 00:04:46,302
Some people took
me out after work.
33
00:04:46,372 --> 00:04:51,962
Hmm. And that would be at,
let me guess, Ma Bell or AT&T.
34
00:04:52,842 --> 00:04:54,702
The Great American
Insurance Company.
35
00:04:54,772 --> 00:04:55,872
Oh.
36
00:04:55,942 --> 00:04:58,972
I'm part of that corporate
establishment that,
37
00:04:59,052 --> 00:05:01,982
let me guess, you think is the
cause of all the evil in the world,
38
00:05:02,052 --> 00:05:03,612
from Vietnam to diaper rash.
39
00:05:03,682 --> 00:05:05,242
You left out bad breath.
40
00:05:08,522 --> 00:05:09,752
Just kidding.
41
00:05:12,432 --> 00:05:15,952
You're not gonna let me spend my
birthday all by myself, are you?
42
00:05:18,632 --> 00:05:20,032
Listen, Harvey,
43
00:05:21,332 --> 00:05:23,332
you're pretty cute,
44
00:05:23,402 --> 00:05:25,372
but I don't date guys over 40.
45
00:05:27,172 --> 00:05:29,512
Well, then, this
is my lucky night.
46
00:05:29,982 --> 00:05:31,342
Why is that?
47
00:05:31,412 --> 00:05:33,112
I'm still 39.
48
00:05:33,952 --> 00:05:35,642
It's only 11:15.
49
00:05:46,532 --> 00:05:47,822
Come on.
50
00:05:52,062 --> 00:05:53,832
What's your name?
51
00:05:53,902 --> 00:05:55,802
I'm Scott.
52
00:05:55,872 --> 00:05:58,802
Very nice to meet you,
Mr. Harvey, insurance man.
53
00:06:37,442 --> 00:06:39,602
Where are you from?
54
00:06:39,682 --> 00:06:41,512
Jackson, Mississippi.
55
00:06:43,582 --> 00:06:46,452
This isn't Jackson. You can't
respond to just every strange man
56
00:06:46,522 --> 00:06:48,152
that picks you up
on a subway platform.
57
00:06:48,222 --> 00:06:49,242
It's too dangerous.
58
00:06:49,322 --> 00:06:50,652
Hmm, now you tell me.
59
00:06:51,862 --> 00:06:53,592
The New York Police
are the toughest.
60
00:06:53,662 --> 00:06:55,392
They're arrogant
and they're everywhere.
61
00:06:55,462 --> 00:06:56,932
I'll show you all
the cruising spots,
62
00:06:57,002 --> 00:06:58,978
but you have to be very
careful, little Scotty-san.
63
00:06:59,002 --> 00:07:01,362
Are you on
some uppers or something?
64
00:07:01,972 --> 00:07:04,772
No. This is
just plain me.
65
00:07:06,012 --> 00:07:07,732
And you're scared of the cops?
66
00:07:08,542 --> 00:07:11,072
I'm just discreet.
I know a lot of people.
67
00:07:11,142 --> 00:07:13,042
If they see me,
I could lose my job.
68
00:07:13,852 --> 00:07:15,582
Oh, you're one of those.
69
00:07:17,522 --> 00:07:21,612
Well, I think you need to find
a new scene. Some new friends.
70
00:07:24,622 --> 00:07:26,792
I need a change.
I know.
71
00:07:28,132 --> 00:07:29,752
Yeah, you're 40 now.
72
00:07:29,832 --> 00:07:30,832
Oh.
73
00:07:33,272 --> 00:07:38,432
Forty years old and I haven't
done a thing I'm proud of.
74
00:07:38,502 --> 00:07:42,502
You keep eating this cake and you're
going to be fat by the time you're 50.
75
00:07:42,582 --> 00:07:44,512
That's if I ever
get to 50. Oh!
76
00:07:45,182 --> 00:07:47,342
Happy birthday, old man.
77
00:07:51,822 --> 00:07:53,882
Why don't we run away together?
78
00:07:53,952 --> 00:07:55,222
Where to?
79
00:08:09,102 --> 00:08:10,902
HARVEY/ In the past, and still now,
80
00:08:10,972 --> 00:08:14,302
San Francisco was the place
where everyone wanted to go.
81
00:08:14,912 --> 00:08:18,812
To drop out, to fall in love.
82
00:08:19,982 --> 00:08:25,822
But by 1972, the Haight was boarded
up. Drug filled, crime filled.
83
00:08:25,892 --> 00:08:28,412
The new place for us refugees
84
00:08:28,492 --> 00:08:31,792
was a little Irish Catholic
neighborhood in the Eureka Valley,
85
00:08:32,862 --> 00:08:34,452
six blocks square,
86
00:08:35,702 --> 00:08:37,392
the Castro.
87
00:09:23,142 --> 00:09:25,772
I cashed my last unemployment
check yesterday.
88
00:09:26,512 --> 00:09:29,352
Well, I hope you did
something useful with it.
89
00:09:31,052 --> 00:09:32,752
I bought an ounce of pot.
90
00:09:32,822 --> 00:09:34,552
Don't move for a second.
91
00:09:37,922 --> 00:09:40,152
I suppose I can wait tables.
92
00:09:41,162 --> 00:09:42,682
I don't want you to go anywhere.
93
00:09:42,762 --> 00:09:45,202
I want you right here with me.
94
00:09:46,202 --> 00:09:48,392
I was thinking
about a little shop.
95
00:09:48,472 --> 00:09:49,872
What kind of shop?
96
00:09:49,942 --> 00:09:51,578
Just a little shop
with a little overhead.
97
00:09:51,602 --> 00:09:52,632
Not too much work.
98
00:09:52,712 --> 00:09:55,372
Just like Morris and Minnie
Milk of Woodmere, New York.
99
00:09:56,042 --> 00:09:58,412
Did you see the little
place downstairs for rent?
100
00:09:58,482 --> 00:09:59,882
Yeah.
101
00:10:00,682 --> 00:10:02,242
What do you think about that?
102
00:10:03,022 --> 00:10:04,412
I think it sounds great.
103
00:10:04,482 --> 00:10:06,712
A little bit up on the left.
104
00:10:12,092 --> 00:10:14,322
Oh, it looks great.
Looks great.
105
00:10:14,392 --> 00:10:15,722
Yeah.
106
00:10:16,332 --> 00:10:18,022
You're the new renters?
107
00:10:18,802 --> 00:10:20,792
Well, hello.
Harvey Milk.
108
00:10:21,932 --> 00:10:23,332
McConnely.
Welcome to Castro Camera.
109
00:10:23,372 --> 00:10:24,632
Scott.
110
00:10:25,602 --> 00:10:27,572
Yeah. Like,
you know, I would like
111
00:10:27,642 --> 00:10:31,542
to join the, what's it called, The
Eureka Valley Merchants Association.
112
00:10:31,612 --> 00:10:32,802
I'm not an interloper.
113
00:10:32,882 --> 00:10:35,642
A Jew, perhaps, but I
hope you'll forgive that.
114
00:10:35,712 --> 00:10:37,202
If you open those doors,
115
00:10:37,282 --> 00:10:40,252
the Merchants Association will
have the police pull your license.
116
00:10:40,322 --> 00:10:41,792
Under what law?
117
00:10:41,852 --> 00:10:43,552
Excuse me?
118
00:10:43,622 --> 00:10:46,682
There's man's law and there's
God's law in this neighborhood
119
00:10:46,762 --> 00:10:47,892
and in this city.
120
00:10:47,962 --> 00:10:49,482
You know, we pay taxes.
121
00:10:49,562 --> 00:10:52,932
The San Francisco police force
is happy to enforce either.
122
00:10:53,002 --> 00:10:54,062
Have a good day.
123
00:10:54,132 --> 00:10:57,302
Yeah, thank you for the warm
welcome to the neighborhood!
124
00:10:59,312 --> 00:11:01,172
Schmuck!
125
00:11:02,012 --> 00:11:03,102
Well.
126
00:11:04,682 --> 00:11:05,842
Hey.
127
00:11:09,422 --> 00:11:11,822
Okay.
Customers, come on in.
128
00:11:34,242 --> 00:11:37,002
We'll form our
own business association.
129
00:11:37,082 --> 00:11:39,272
We'll start with
the gay businesses.
130
00:11:39,352 --> 00:11:43,252
We'll get the addresses of every customer
that comes in the store for a roll of film
131
00:11:43,322 --> 00:11:46,682
and we'll ask them what they
want, what they need changed.
132
00:11:46,752 --> 00:11:49,922
We'll get some money rolling in
here. Revitalize the neighborhood.
133
00:11:49,992 --> 00:11:51,392
Can I come in now?
134
00:11:52,562 --> 00:11:54,152
One more minute.
135
00:11:56,462 --> 00:11:58,262
And I can go to
the neighborhood banks.
136
00:11:58,332 --> 00:12:00,232
They must have
some gay customers.
137
00:12:00,302 --> 00:12:03,962
Look, Harvey, what's with all
this political activist crap?
138
00:12:04,042 --> 00:12:06,602
I mean, I thought you
were a goddamn Republican.
139
00:12:06,672 --> 00:12:08,612
I'm a businessman, Scott.
140
00:12:08,672 --> 00:12:11,972
And businesses should be
good to their customers.
141
00:12:12,542 --> 00:12:14,842
Even if their customers are gay.
142
00:12:14,912 --> 00:12:16,912
For God's sake,
it's San Francisco!
143
00:12:16,982 --> 00:12:19,822
Yeah. Well, it's just like
any other city in the country.
144
00:12:19,892 --> 00:12:21,412
They hate us.
Real surprise.
145
00:12:21,492 --> 00:12:24,322
We should have at least one
block in one city, right?
146
00:12:24,392 --> 00:12:28,122
We start there and then we'll
take over the neighborhood.
147
00:12:28,192 --> 00:12:29,522
Maybe.
148
00:12:30,832 --> 00:12:32,062
I'm coming in.
149
00:12:32,132 --> 00:12:34,332
Okay, you can come in now.
150
00:12:37,272 --> 00:12:39,672
Finally.
This better be good.
151
00:12:40,412 --> 00:12:41,742
Oh!
152
00:12:42,572 --> 00:12:43,972
Happy birthday!
153
00:12:46,982 --> 00:12:50,212
I had to do it! I had
to do it! I had to do it!
154
00:12:50,282 --> 00:12:52,412
Sanctuary, sanctuary!
Harvey Milk!
155
00:12:52,482 --> 00:12:53,482
Sanctuary!
156
00:12:54,022 --> 00:12:56,252
And Castro became
destination number one.
157
00:12:57,992 --> 00:13:01,792
Hundreds of gay men were coming
every week from all over the world.
158
00:13:02,492 --> 00:13:05,092
It was our area.
Our own neighborhood.
159
00:13:15,572 --> 00:13:18,812
The police hated us. And
we hated them right back.
160
00:13:19,482 --> 00:13:22,172
They would come in and attack
us and beat us just for fun.
161
00:13:22,252 --> 00:13:23,652
But that wouldn't stop us.
162
00:13:23,722 --> 00:13:27,882
I made a list of shops that were
friendly to us and shops that weren't.
163
00:13:27,952 --> 00:13:30,182
Those shops that
worked with us thrived.
164
00:13:30,262 --> 00:13:32,552
Those that didn't,
went out of business.
165
00:13:32,622 --> 00:13:33,822
Closed their doors.
166
00:13:37,502 --> 00:13:39,522
Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen.
167
00:13:39,602 --> 00:13:42,832
Mr. McConnely, I just came by
to see how business was doing.
168
00:13:42,902 --> 00:13:44,232
Just fine, Harvey.
169
00:13:44,302 --> 00:13:46,792
You don't mind having all
these homosexuals in here?
170
00:13:48,012 --> 00:13:50,442
Kidding, everybody. He
loves our kind. Spend away.
171
00:13:50,512 --> 00:13:51,842
Tell your wife I said hello.
172
00:13:53,412 --> 00:13:56,812
But people started
hanging around our store.
173
00:13:56,882 --> 00:13:59,822
Not customers.
Activists, kids,
174
00:14:00,692 --> 00:14:03,622
young people who were looking
for a home away from home.
175
00:14:24,942 --> 00:14:26,172
There was Danny Nicoletta,
176
00:14:26,252 --> 00:14:29,842
cute art student that I picked up
at Toad Hall, who worked in the shop.
177
00:14:29,922 --> 00:14:32,682
Harvey, come on.
Opera is so passé.
178
00:14:32,752 --> 00:14:34,198
You're not understanding
the spectacle of it,
179
00:14:34,222 --> 00:14:35,652
the bigger than life emotions.
180
00:14:35,722 --> 00:14:37,622
The bigger than life emotions?
181
00:14:42,832 --> 00:14:44,852
Jim Rivaldo, a great mind.
182
00:14:44,932 --> 00:14:50,102
Harvard graduate, which nobody cared
about in those days in the Castro.
183
00:14:50,172 --> 00:14:51,432
Including himself.
184
00:14:51,502 --> 00:14:54,372
And somewhere along the
line, Jim picked up a protégé,
185
00:14:54,442 --> 00:14:57,242
a cute political kid from
Wisconsin, Dick Pabich.
186
00:14:57,312 --> 00:14:59,712
And of course,
there was Dennis Peron,
187
00:14:59,782 --> 00:15:03,372
who ran a very successful
business with the young kids.
188
00:15:03,452 --> 00:15:06,682
And it wasn't only the gays
who noticed what was happening.
189
00:15:07,192 --> 00:15:08,712
Also the straight people.
190
00:15:09,722 --> 00:15:11,952
There were some
very unexpected ones.
191
00:15:13,032 --> 00:15:16,152
Teamster leader Allan Baird
walked right into my shop
192
00:15:16,232 --> 00:15:20,262
and asked me if I could get my
people to help boycott Coors beer.
193
00:15:20,332 --> 00:15:22,932
And the Coors beer boycott
had not been too successful.
194
00:15:23,002 --> 00:15:27,202
But I got my people to get all the
Coors beer out of all the gay bars,
195
00:15:27,272 --> 00:15:30,762
and immediately Coors fell
from number one and they caved.
196
00:15:31,612 --> 00:15:34,882
A week later, the Teamsters
union, for the very first time,
197
00:15:34,952 --> 00:15:36,782
hired openly gay drivers.
198
00:15:36,852 --> 00:15:39,012
We weren't just a bunch
of pansies anymore.
199
00:15:39,082 --> 00:15:41,422
We had had our
first taste of power.
200
00:15:41,492 --> 00:15:44,952
And it was about that time
that someone first called me
201
00:15:45,022 --> 00:15:49,862
the Mayor of Castro Street, or I
may have invented the term myself.
202
00:15:53,972 --> 00:15:55,592
The fucking cops, man.
203
00:15:55,672 --> 00:15:57,148
Cops are pulling
people out of Toad Hall.
204
00:15:57,172 --> 00:15:58,102
Why?
What did they do?
205
00:15:58,172 --> 00:15:59,948
They're sweeping the streets.
It's happening right now.
206
00:15:59,972 --> 00:16:01,342
Come on.
Come on.
207
00:16:26,602 --> 00:16:29,192
Through the door there,
the front door there,
208
00:16:29,272 --> 00:16:33,932
was just an explosion
of police charging in here.
209
00:16:34,012 --> 00:16:37,202
I ran into the bathroom to
hide with some other people.
210
00:16:38,042 --> 00:16:43,452
All we could hear was screaming
and crunching and smashing.
211
00:16:43,522 --> 00:16:48,422
It was frankly the most terrifying
experience I've had in my life.
212
00:16:56,362 --> 00:16:57,892
If we had someone in government
213
00:16:57,962 --> 00:17:00,902
who saw things the
way that we see them,
214
00:17:00,972 --> 00:17:05,532
like the black community has black
leaders that look out for their interests.
215
00:17:13,312 --> 00:17:15,412
Politics is theater.
216
00:17:15,482 --> 00:17:16,728
It doesn't matter
so much about winning.
217
00:17:16,752 --> 00:17:17,772
You make a statement.
218
00:17:17,852 --> 00:17:21,482
You say, "I'm here. ' '
You get their attention.
219
00:17:23,292 --> 00:17:24,812
I mean, it'll be fun.
220
00:17:29,802 --> 00:17:34,862
Even though the Castro was firmly our
area by 1973, it wasn't safe for us.
221
00:17:34,932 --> 00:17:38,872
We would have to wear whistles
on our necks or in our pockets.
222
00:17:38,942 --> 00:17:41,632
And if you ever heard a
whistle, you would run to help.
223
00:17:42,412 --> 00:17:46,142
Fruit was walking home with
his trick when he got jumped.
224
00:17:46,212 --> 00:17:48,772
Name's Robert Hillsborough.
Did you know him?
225
00:17:49,822 --> 00:17:52,482
He used to come into my
shop. Are there any witnesses?
226
00:17:52,552 --> 00:17:54,852
Yeah, just
the trick, Jerry Taylor.
227
00:17:54,922 --> 00:17:57,452
Jerry's not his
trick, he's his lover.
228
00:17:57,522 --> 00:17:58,892
Hey, call it what you will.
229
00:17:58,962 --> 00:18:02,422
All we know is he's our only witness and
he said he can't identify the attackers.
230
00:18:02,492 --> 00:18:04,908
Oh, you'd have a dozen witnesses
if they thought you boys had any
231
00:18:04,932 --> 00:18:06,962
real interest
in protecting them.
232
00:18:22,812 --> 00:18:25,912
SCO TT ON PA/ Hey, come on. Come
over. Everyone gather around.
233
00:18:25,982 --> 00:18:27,752
Hey, Milk, good job on Coors.
234
00:18:27,822 --> 00:18:31,082
Thank you and we were very happy to
do that. We were very happy to do that.
235
00:18:31,162 --> 00:18:33,182
Everyone over here,
gather around.
236
00:18:38,262 --> 00:18:41,432
Hello. I'm Harvey Milk.
237
00:18:44,802 --> 00:18:46,292
A week ago,
238
00:18:47,842 --> 00:18:51,972
police officers came into
our area with badges covered.
239
00:18:53,512 --> 00:18:58,542
They sent 14 of our people
to hospitals and to jail.
240
00:18:58,622 --> 00:19:02,182
The charges,
"Blocking the sidewalk."
241
00:19:04,362 --> 00:19:08,992
Let's let our tax money go to our
protection, not our persecution.
242
00:19:09,732 --> 00:19:13,192
Worry about gun control,
not marijuana control.
243
00:19:13,272 --> 00:19:16,962
School supplies, seniors,
not the books we read!
244
00:19:22,312 --> 00:19:24,102
My fellow degenerates,
245
00:19:25,512 --> 00:19:30,952
I would like to announce my candidacy
for San Francisco City Supervisor!
246
00:19:35,422 --> 00:19:37,512
How are you, Lee?
Fine, thank you.
247
00:19:37,592 --> 00:19:39,638
Oh, I bought you some flowers
to brighten up your day.
248
00:19:39,662 --> 00:19:42,132
Could I leave some
flyers for your customers?
249
00:19:42,932 --> 00:19:44,092
Hello, everyone.
250
00:19:44,162 --> 00:19:45,692
Harvey Milk,
running for supervisor.
251
00:19:45,762 --> 00:19:47,252
We need your support.
252
00:19:47,332 --> 00:19:49,302
Are you registered to vote?
253
00:19:49,372 --> 00:19:51,648
Let me just give you that. It's for
Harvey Milk for supervisor, all right?
254
00:19:51,672 --> 00:19:54,142
He's running for the Board of
Supervisors. Right. Thank you.
255
00:19:54,212 --> 00:19:55,372
Take care.
Have a good day.
256
00:19:55,442 --> 00:20:00,142
Harvey Milk for supervisor! Excuse
me, ma'am, are you registered to vote?
257
00:20:00,212 --> 00:20:01,802
Sir, are you registered to vote?
258
00:20:01,882 --> 00:20:04,352
I'm Harvey Milk, sir.
I'm running for supervisor.
259
00:20:04,422 --> 00:20:06,942
I want you to know that my
campaign is very interested
260
00:20:07,022 --> 00:20:08,712
in taking care of
seniors in the area.
261
00:20:08,792 --> 00:20:10,368
We've been doing
a lot about reaching out.
262
00:20:10,392 --> 00:20:14,052
I'm Harvey Milk. Will you register
here if you're not registered?
263
00:20:14,662 --> 00:20:19,362
Hey, I like the way those pants
fit! Where are you from, kid?
264
00:20:19,432 --> 00:20:21,702
Sorry, old man, not interested.
265
00:20:21,772 --> 00:20:23,832
Where's home?
266
00:20:23,902 --> 00:20:25,462
Phoenix.
267
00:20:25,542 --> 00:20:28,132
Come here.
Just come here a minute.
268
00:20:30,982 --> 00:20:33,812
I'm Harvey Milk. I'm
running for supervisor.
269
00:20:33,882 --> 00:20:35,012
What's your name?
270
00:20:35,082 --> 00:20:36,952
Cleve Jones.
271
00:20:37,022 --> 00:20:39,252
Cleve Jones.
You're adorable.
272
00:20:39,792 --> 00:20:43,282
We should get you over here and
get you registered, Mr. Jones.
273
00:20:44,562 --> 00:20:46,252
Fuck that.
Elections of any kind
274
00:20:46,322 --> 00:20:48,422
are fucking
bourgeois affectation.
275
00:20:48,492 --> 00:20:50,152
Is that right?
Mmm-hmm.
276
00:20:50,232 --> 00:20:52,532
What do you do,
trick up on Polk Street?
277
00:20:55,632 --> 00:20:57,662
If I need the cash.
278
00:20:57,742 --> 00:21:00,248
But I'm a little bit more selective
about my clients than you are.
279
00:21:00,272 --> 00:21:03,042
Okay, let me ask you one thing
before you go back to work.
280
00:21:03,112 --> 00:21:05,202
What was it like to be
a little queer in Phoenix?
281
00:21:05,282 --> 00:21:07,772
Did all the jocks beat
you up in gym class?
282
00:21:11,522 --> 00:21:14,252
I faked a lung disease
to get out of P.E.
283
00:21:14,322 --> 00:21:16,952
So what, what are you?
Some kind of street shrink?
284
00:21:17,022 --> 00:21:18,462
Sometimes.
285
00:21:18,522 --> 00:21:21,652
But what I'm talking about
is that we can change Phoenix.
286
00:21:22,132 --> 00:21:24,322
But we have to
start with our street.
287
00:21:26,002 --> 00:21:31,092
Police abuse, rent control,
pot, parks, seniors issues.
288
00:21:31,172 --> 00:21:33,072
Good luck with all that.
289
00:21:33,612 --> 00:21:34,732
Good luck.
290
00:21:36,542 --> 00:21:38,412
You know what I think,
Cleve Jones?
291
00:21:38,482 --> 00:21:40,358
That you're gonna get
somewhere if you keep talking.
292
00:21:40,382 --> 00:21:42,612
No. I think you should
do what you do well.
293
00:21:42,682 --> 00:21:44,212
You should be a prick.
294
00:21:44,282 --> 00:21:48,382
But come with us and be a prick.
Fight City Hall. Fight the cops.
295
00:21:48,452 --> 00:21:50,982
Fight the people that made you
come here to do what you do.
296
00:21:51,062 --> 00:21:53,922
Sorry, old man, I'm leaving
for Spain tomorrow. Europe.
297
00:21:53,992 --> 00:21:56,392
All the cash I need
is in my back pocket.
298
00:22:05,442 --> 00:22:08,572
I'm just saying that at this point,
it looks like all the big guns,
299
00:22:08,642 --> 00:22:10,202
all the gay money,
the real money,
300
00:22:10,282 --> 00:22:11,642
is gonna get behind Feinstein
301
00:22:11,712 --> 00:22:13,288
and all the straight candidates
they consider "gay-friendly. ' '
302
00:22:13,312 --> 00:22:15,142
Who cares about
those old queens?
303
00:22:15,212 --> 00:22:16,388
Well, you need
them to get elected.
304
00:22:16,412 --> 00:22:19,212
Why isn't my campaign
manager leading this meeting?
305
00:22:19,282 --> 00:22:21,968
'Cause I'm exhausted. I've been
handing out pamphlets for seven hours.
306
00:22:21,992 --> 00:22:23,252
Yeah, in a bathhouse.
307
00:22:23,322 --> 00:22:25,222
And who are these so-called
gay leaders anyway?
308
00:22:25,292 --> 00:22:27,822
Who appointed them?
What are you suggesting, Jim?
309
00:22:27,892 --> 00:22:30,092
That I go down there and
solicit their endorsement?
310
00:22:30,162 --> 00:22:33,292
I mean, we're down here trying to help
people on the streets. Where are they?
311
00:22:33,372 --> 00:22:35,562
Yeah, I know, but... You
need an endorsement, Harvey.
312
00:22:35,632 --> 00:22:36,902
Take this.
313
00:22:36,972 --> 00:22:38,272
Checking the exposure.
314
00:22:38,342 --> 00:22:40,302
They're nice pictures.
315
00:22:40,372 --> 00:22:42,272
Is he your boyfriend?
Sort of.
316
00:22:42,712 --> 00:22:45,112
Harvey, David Goodstein is a
publisher from The Advocate.
317
00:22:45,182 --> 00:22:46,582
Harvey.
He's got a house...
318
00:22:46,652 --> 00:22:50,842
Harvey, I think
you got to see this.
319
00:22:54,722 --> 00:22:57,152
"Harvey Milk will
have a dream journey
320
00:22:57,222 --> 00:23:00,282
"and nightmare to hell,
a night of horror.
321
00:23:00,362 --> 00:23:02,545
"You will be stabbed
and have your
322
00:23:02,557 --> 00:23:05,462
genitals, cock, balls
and prick cut off. ' '
323
00:23:06,632 --> 00:23:07,892
I'm calling the police.
324
00:23:07,972 --> 00:23:11,632
They probably wrote it.
Look, think of it this way.
325
00:23:11,702 --> 00:23:13,688
If they try to kill me,
I'll get the sympathy vote.
326
00:23:13,712 --> 00:23:16,042
That might be
just the push we need.
327
00:23:16,112 --> 00:23:18,802
You think this is funny?
Look at it.
328
00:23:21,512 --> 00:23:22,782
It's a total joke.
329
00:23:22,852 --> 00:23:25,942
I mean, it's got no rhythm,
no humor. It's insulting.
330
00:23:29,692 --> 00:23:30,712
Don't do that.
331
00:23:30,792 --> 00:23:32,468
No, if you put it away,
you put it in a drawer,
332
00:23:32,492 --> 00:23:34,462
it just gets bigger and scarier.
333
00:23:34,532 --> 00:23:37,432
Here, it's right here. We see
it every day. It can't get us.
334
00:23:39,262 --> 00:23:42,202
Gonna spend all this energy
to make yourself a target?
335
00:23:42,272 --> 00:23:44,062
For something you're
not gonna even win?
336
00:23:44,142 --> 00:23:47,232
I keep telling you, it's
not just about winning.
337
00:23:48,542 --> 00:23:51,532
HARVEY/ The top gays in San
Francisco were David Goodstein
338
00:23:51,612 --> 00:23:54,172
and his civil rights lawyer
sidekick, Rick Stokes.
339
00:23:54,252 --> 00:23:57,452
David was a rich old queen who had bought
the biggest gay magazine, The Advocate.
340
00:23:57,482 --> 00:24:00,182
Hello. Hello, welcome
to Mr. Goodstein's.
341
00:24:00,252 --> 00:24:01,342
Milo.
342
00:24:03,092 --> 00:24:05,492
I worked for a financial
institution in New York.
343
00:24:05,562 --> 00:24:07,082
I was very discreet.
344
00:24:07,162 --> 00:24:09,222
One night I went to
the Metropolitan Opera,
345
00:24:09,292 --> 00:24:11,262
Il Trovatore, Verdi.
346
00:24:11,332 --> 00:24:13,702
I was sitting in a
box, next to my lover.
347
00:24:14,502 --> 00:24:17,262
Someone spotted us.
Next day I was fired.
348
00:24:18,602 --> 00:24:20,432
So I decided to do
something about it.
349
00:24:20,512 --> 00:24:23,372
Came out here to San Francisco,
I bought The Advocate.
350
00:24:23,812 --> 00:24:28,682
I use my money and my influence, in very
subtle and quiet ways, to do what I can.
351
00:24:29,482 --> 00:24:31,242
So you think that backing
straight candidates
352
00:24:31,322 --> 00:24:32,512
is the best way to help us?
353
00:24:32,582 --> 00:24:34,552
Yeah, if they're
friendly to our cause.
354
00:24:34,622 --> 00:24:36,552
Supervisor is a citywide office.
355
00:24:36,622 --> 00:24:38,352
Political alliances
have to be built.
356
00:24:38,422 --> 00:24:42,552
You can't just move here from across
the country and run for that office.
357
00:24:42,632 --> 00:24:44,092
But I am running for office.
358
00:24:44,162 --> 00:24:45,462
I'm on the ballot.
359
00:24:45,532 --> 00:24:47,662
I have the union rank and
file, I have the seniors.
360
00:24:47,732 --> 00:24:50,532
And I would like to have
your magazine's endorsement.
361
00:24:52,042 --> 00:24:54,972
Harvey, we're like
the Catholic church.
362
00:24:55,042 --> 00:24:58,572
We welcome converts, but we
don't make them Pope the same day.
363
00:24:58,642 --> 00:25:00,742
Why haven't you run yet?
364
00:25:00,812 --> 00:25:03,782
Too early.
Especially from the Castro.
365
00:25:05,252 --> 00:25:06,682
What's wrong with the Castro?
366
00:25:06,752 --> 00:25:09,692
Nobody works there. It's all
about sex and drugs and more sex.
367
00:25:09,752 --> 00:25:12,052
David, we need one
of our own in office.
368
00:25:13,632 --> 00:25:18,032
Harvey, you can't demand
acceptance overnight.
369
00:25:18,102 --> 00:25:19,222
Why not?
370
00:25:19,302 --> 00:25:21,992
The more "out" you make us,
the more you incite them.
371
00:25:22,072 --> 00:25:24,972
Harvey, step back and quiet down.
372
00:25:25,042 --> 00:25:27,202
You're suggesting we should
go back in the closet?
373
00:25:27,272 --> 00:25:28,672
Is that what you're saying?
374
00:25:28,742 --> 00:25:31,712
I spent more years in the
closet than I care to remember.
375
00:25:31,782 --> 00:25:33,402
Let's go, Scott.
Yeah.
376
00:25:33,482 --> 00:25:34,958
I don't need your
magazine's endorsement.
377
00:25:34,982 --> 00:25:38,072
And I'm not asking for anyone's
acceptance. I don't have time.
378
00:25:38,652 --> 00:25:41,682
For you,
politics is a game, a lark.
379
00:25:41,752 --> 00:25:44,592
It's like putting on a rock
festival or staging a love-in.
380
00:25:44,662 --> 00:25:46,752
You're too old to be
a hippie, Harvey Milk.
381
00:25:46,832 --> 00:25:49,762
I am not a candidate.
I am part of a movement.
382
00:25:49,832 --> 00:25:52,852
The movement is the candidate.
There is a difference.
383
00:25:52,932 --> 00:25:54,872
You don't see it, but I do.
384
00:25:57,002 --> 00:25:59,092
Sorry, I, uh,
pissed in the pool.
385
00:26:00,772 --> 00:26:05,872
So, on election day, out of 32
candidates vying for six seats,
386
00:26:05,942 --> 00:26:09,242
we came in tenth.
We lost.
387
00:26:09,312 --> 00:26:16,122
But only a few votes shy of my becoming
the first big eared, cock-sucking,
388
00:26:17,222 --> 00:26:20,122
queer as a three-dollar-bill-man
389
00:26:20,192 --> 00:26:22,222
to be elected to public office.
390
00:26:23,362 --> 00:26:26,492
So we decided to
try it again in 1975.
391
00:26:28,302 --> 00:26:30,362
Only this time,
with a few adjustments.
392
00:26:32,442 --> 00:26:36,462
No. No, not cute. I hate the shoes.
393
00:26:36,542 --> 00:26:38,372
I hate the hair.
You're not fooling anybody.
394
00:26:38,442 --> 00:26:40,712
I'm not gonna let those
little Pacific Heights biddies
395
00:26:40,782 --> 00:26:43,582
write me off anymore because
of a ponytail. I like it.
396
00:26:43,652 --> 00:26:48,212
No more bathhouses, no more
pot, for me and my little poo.
397
00:26:50,192 --> 00:26:51,522
Speak for yourself.
Come on.
398
00:26:51,592 --> 00:26:58,762
We ran and lost the supervisor's
race for the second time in 1975,
399
00:26:58,832 --> 00:27:01,822
but with more votes than ever before.
400
00:27:02,532 --> 00:27:07,772
So in 1976,
against everyone's advice,
401
00:27:07,842 --> 00:27:11,042
I really pissed off
the political power houses
402
00:27:11,112 --> 00:27:14,172
in the Democratic party by
running against their man,
403
00:27:14,252 --> 00:27:17,842
Art Agnos, who was part
of their political machine.
404
00:27:17,922 --> 00:27:20,982
And this time, not for
supervisor, but for a bigger job,
405
00:27:21,052 --> 00:27:22,852
for the California
State Assembly.
406
00:27:22,922 --> 00:27:26,192
I don't think that State Assembly
seats should be the reward
407
00:27:26,262 --> 00:27:28,122
for service to the
Democratic party machine.
408
00:27:28,192 --> 00:27:30,792
Machines run on oil and
grease. They're dirty.
409
00:27:31,332 --> 00:27:35,322
They're dehumanizing. And they
tend to be entirely unresponsive
410
00:27:35,402 --> 00:27:38,432
to the needs of anybody,
but those of their operator.
411
00:27:38,872 --> 00:27:42,502
Mr. Milk, I've been a social
worker in this city for years.
412
00:27:42,572 --> 00:27:44,372
I know Sacramento.
413
00:27:44,442 --> 00:27:46,912
I know how to get done
what we all need done there.
414
00:27:46,982 --> 00:27:50,682
Tell me something, Mr. Agnos,
right here in the Castro,
415
00:27:50,752 --> 00:27:55,522
Robert Hillsbourough was murdered for
walking home with his longtime partner.
416
00:27:55,592 --> 00:27:57,452
He was stabbed 15 times.
417
00:27:58,192 --> 00:28:02,992
The last words he heard were,
"Faggot, faggot, faggot. ' '
418
00:28:03,062 --> 00:28:06,762
Now, you say you're outraged.
419
00:28:08,202 --> 00:28:13,332
Why then does your liberal
establishment refuse to answer our calls?
420
00:28:13,402 --> 00:28:16,132
Why do they not bring
these murderers to justice?
421
00:28:19,942 --> 00:28:21,812
My God, you're handsome up close.
422
00:28:22,952 --> 00:28:25,812
Can't tell you how much I'm
looking forward to licking you,
423
00:28:25,882 --> 00:28:27,152
in the polls.
424
00:28:28,322 --> 00:28:31,122
You know, Harv, your
whole rap's a real downer.
425
00:28:32,162 --> 00:28:34,422
You talk a lot about
what you're against.
426
00:28:34,492 --> 00:28:36,082
But what are you for?
427
00:28:36,162 --> 00:28:40,532
In this town, you got to give them a
reason for optimism, or you're cooked.
428
00:28:44,602 --> 00:28:46,472
See you around.
429
00:28:46,542 --> 00:28:47,542
Okay, Art.
430
00:28:48,142 --> 00:28:49,972
You're gonna wanna
read that entire thing.
431
00:28:50,042 --> 00:28:51,372
Okay, I'll take a look at it.
432
00:28:51,442 --> 00:28:52,812
Excuse me.
433
00:28:52,882 --> 00:28:54,852
Guys.
Don't touch that.
434
00:28:55,482 --> 00:28:58,542
Harvey. Harvey, dinner. Have
to get some union boys in there.
435
00:28:58,622 --> 00:29:01,052
They love me, they love me.
436
00:29:04,392 --> 00:29:06,722
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
437
00:29:08,292 --> 00:29:10,392
Harvey, you have to eat.
438
00:29:10,462 --> 00:29:13,522
Everyone, the apartment
is now off limits!
439
00:29:13,602 --> 00:29:15,432
Good night.
Good night.
440
00:29:16,672 --> 00:29:18,602
Good night.
Whose jacket is this?
441
00:29:18,672 --> 00:29:20,502
Right here.
Here you go. Good night.
442
00:29:20,572 --> 00:29:23,372
Down the stairs.
Thank you. Thank you.
443
00:29:25,142 --> 00:29:26,542
Good night. Thank you.
444
00:29:26,612 --> 00:29:28,358
I think you got to call the guy,
'cause I can't talk to that guy.
445
00:29:28,382 --> 00:29:29,942
Sit.
446
00:29:31,252 --> 00:29:33,652
Don't say anything.
447
00:29:44,832 --> 00:29:46,192
Can I just tell you...
448
00:29:46,262 --> 00:29:49,432
If you say anything about
politics or the campaign,
449
00:29:49,502 --> 00:29:51,702
or what speech you
have to give or anything,
450
00:29:51,772 --> 00:29:54,332
I swear to God I'm gonna
stab you with this fork.
451
00:29:55,412 --> 00:30:01,402
I just wanted to say that this is the
most wonderful dinner I have ever had.
452
00:30:06,182 --> 00:30:10,122
If we lose this, it'll
just be you and me again.
453
00:30:10,192 --> 00:30:12,052
I promise.
454
00:30:12,122 --> 00:30:13,852
I'm sorry, I just...
455
00:30:13,932 --> 00:30:18,062
No, I know.
I know, I know.
456
00:31:21,632 --> 00:31:22,852
Phoenix.
457
00:31:23,532 --> 00:31:25,362
At least now you look gay.
458
00:31:32,742 --> 00:31:34,362
Let's go inside.
459
00:31:45,482 --> 00:31:47,582
Are you staying up with me?
460
00:31:50,192 --> 00:31:52,822
The election's tomorrow.
I won't sleep anyway.
461
00:32:01,472 --> 00:32:02,732
Was he handsome?
462
00:32:02,802 --> 00:32:06,002
Oh, no!
He was hideous.
463
00:32:08,412 --> 00:32:12,782
Usually when my lovers leave, they
cheat with even more attractive men.
464
00:32:17,622 --> 00:32:22,682
I actually thought we were gonna
spend the rest of our lives together.
465
00:32:29,092 --> 00:32:31,032
Well, guess what, Cleve Jones.
466
00:32:32,462 --> 00:32:33,562
What?
467
00:32:33,632 --> 00:32:37,762
You're going to meet the
most extraordinary men,
468
00:32:37,842 --> 00:32:41,102
the sexiest, funniest, brightest men.
469
00:32:41,172 --> 00:32:43,748
You're going to meet so many of them,
fall in love with so many of them,
470
00:32:43,772 --> 00:32:45,332
you won't know till
the end of your life
471
00:32:45,412 --> 00:32:48,942
which ones were your greatest lovers
and which were your greatest friends.
472
00:32:50,152 --> 00:32:51,952
Is that supposed to help?
473
00:32:52,582 --> 00:32:55,352
Maybe a little. Or not.
474
00:33:05,302 --> 00:33:08,132
I went to Spain last month.
475
00:33:08,202 --> 00:33:09,532
Long story.
476
00:33:13,602 --> 00:33:16,472
In Barcelona, there
was this memorial march
477
00:33:16,542 --> 00:33:19,142
for gay people that
had died under Franco.
478
00:33:20,612 --> 00:33:22,942
Of course, the police
tried to break it up.
479
00:33:23,012 --> 00:33:25,072
But these queens didn't run.
No.
480
00:33:25,152 --> 00:33:28,592
They turned around and
they started a fucking riot.
481
00:33:28,652 --> 00:33:31,492
I saw a bullet, one of
those big rubber bullets
482
00:33:31,562 --> 00:33:35,652
rip through a drag queen's
scalp, but she kept on fighting.
483
00:33:36,232 --> 00:33:39,252
She was screaming,
but she kept on fighting.
484
00:33:40,462 --> 00:33:41,462
I mean...
485
00:33:43,632 --> 00:33:45,002
Our lives.
486
00:33:47,512 --> 00:33:50,872
There was blood literally
running in the gutter.
487
00:33:52,712 --> 00:33:54,442
In a gutter.
488
00:33:58,282 --> 00:34:00,982
We could have a revolution here.
489
00:34:03,152 --> 00:34:06,652
But you can't use the
Castro just to cruise.
490
00:34:07,592 --> 00:34:09,152
You have to fight.
491
00:34:12,402 --> 00:34:13,992
You really think you'll win?
492
00:34:14,072 --> 00:34:17,162
Winning is not my strong suit.
493
00:34:18,272 --> 00:34:19,632
Well,
494
00:34:21,342 --> 00:34:23,642
I don't do losing, ever.
495
00:34:23,712 --> 00:34:27,012
Maybe I should run for office
and you can work for me.
496
00:34:27,082 --> 00:34:29,242
I mean, if you can do it...
497
00:34:29,312 --> 00:34:31,472
Can you assemble a
thousand people in an hour?
498
00:34:31,552 --> 00:34:32,682
Fuck, yeah.
499
00:34:32,752 --> 00:34:35,282
Well, if I run again,
you're gonna be my man.
500
00:34:36,452 --> 00:34:37,612
If?
501
00:34:38,592 --> 00:34:40,252
You're so adorable.
502
00:34:42,432 --> 00:34:44,392
The polls are open in 3 hours.
503
00:34:45,332 --> 00:34:47,592
How about you and
I hit the bus stops?
504
00:34:49,472 --> 00:34:50,472
Okay.
505
00:34:52,272 --> 00:34:57,172
Yes, Jesus
506
00:34:57,982 --> 00:35:00,342
Loves me
507
00:35:00,412 --> 00:35:03,782
Anita Bryant was once
known as an orange juice saleswoman.
508
00:35:03,852 --> 00:35:07,442
Hi, I'm Anita Bryant.
509
00:35:07,992 --> 00:35:09,482
Hello, I'm Anita Bryant.
510
00:35:09,552 --> 00:35:11,952
With a religious fervor
that has made her America's most
511
00:35:12,022 --> 00:35:13,822
controversial woman overnight,
512
00:35:13,892 --> 00:35:17,092
her group is crusading to
repeal a new Dade County law,
513
00:35:17,162 --> 00:35:19,892
which protects homosexuals
in jobs and housing.
514
00:35:19,962 --> 00:35:24,732
I believe that more than ever
before, that there are evil forces
515
00:35:27,872 --> 00:35:29,342
round about us,
516
00:35:30,612 --> 00:35:33,342
even perhaps disguised
as something good,
517
00:35:35,452 --> 00:35:38,012
that would want to tear down
518
00:35:38,082 --> 00:35:42,682
the very foundation, the family
unit, that holds America together.
519
00:35:42,752 --> 00:35:44,552
There are those people
who say that it is
520
00:35:44,622 --> 00:35:47,022
kind of an eye for an eye
law that is at work here,
521
00:35:47,092 --> 00:35:49,622
that you're denying homosexuals
many of their rights as well.
522
00:35:49,692 --> 00:35:52,692
You see, if homosexuals are
allowed their civil rights,
523
00:35:52,762 --> 00:35:55,632
then so would prostitutes
or thieves or anyone else.
524
00:35:55,702 --> 00:35:57,962
God puts it in
a category of morality.
525
00:35:58,042 --> 00:36:00,202
Doesn't that necessarily
follow that you believe that
526
00:36:00,272 --> 00:36:01,932
homosexuality
ought to be illegal?
527
00:36:02,012 --> 00:36:04,472
ANITA/ I do believe that
it should be illegal.
528
00:36:04,542 --> 00:36:06,942
Well, we lost, but
we didn't lose by much.
529
00:36:07,682 --> 00:36:10,042
More votes than ever!
530
00:36:13,082 --> 00:36:14,922
That used to make you laugh.
531
00:36:17,562 --> 00:36:19,682
Harvey, I got to
show you something.
532
00:36:21,162 --> 00:36:22,632
This is incredible.
533
00:36:25,832 --> 00:36:29,862
If we can get that new initiative
on district elections to go through,
534
00:36:29,932 --> 00:36:32,402
and we can, we can,
535
00:36:34,912 --> 00:36:37,312
the boundary for the
new supervisor district
536
00:36:38,912 --> 00:36:41,102
is gonna go right
down Market Street,
537
00:36:43,252 --> 00:36:47,182
right around the
Haight like this,
538
00:36:50,052 --> 00:36:53,622
and right around the Castro.
539
00:36:56,562 --> 00:36:59,122
The Haight and the Castro.
That's it.
540
00:37:00,162 --> 00:37:04,692
If these are the only people we have
to convince, the hippies and the gays,
541
00:37:05,642 --> 00:37:08,162
you win, you win.
542
00:37:09,672 --> 00:37:11,472
You win by a landslide.
543
00:37:15,452 --> 00:37:20,882
You'll be the first openly gay man
elected to major office in the U.S.
544
00:37:24,592 --> 00:37:28,052
I don't know if I
have another one in me.
545
00:37:28,132 --> 00:37:29,682
Or Scotty.
546
00:37:32,802 --> 00:37:33,992
Yeah, well.
547
00:37:46,412 --> 00:37:49,972
Relentless man.
Oh, you're a relentless man.
548
00:37:56,452 --> 00:38:00,582
This is the CBS
Evening News with Walter Cronkite.
549
00:38:00,662 --> 00:38:04,322
The battle over homosexual
rights in Dade County, Florida.
550
00:38:04,402 --> 00:38:06,262
The battle pitting
singer Anita Bryant
551
00:38:06,332 --> 00:38:10,032
against gay rights activist
comes to a vote there Tuesday.
552
00:38:10,102 --> 00:38:13,502
The issue was whether or not to
repeal a four-month-old ordinance,
553
00:38:13,572 --> 00:38:17,602
which prohibits job and housing
discrimination against homosexuals.
554
00:38:17,682 --> 00:38:19,142
In anticipation of the vote,
555
00:38:19,212 --> 00:38:21,202
the gay community
has staged protests
556
00:38:21,282 --> 00:38:24,652
in New York and other major
cities across the country.
557
00:38:24,722 --> 00:38:28,482
The vote is
going now 18,930 for repeal.
558
00:38:28,552 --> 00:38:30,282
Oh, give me a fucking break.
559
00:38:30,352 --> 00:38:32,352
Eighty eight hundred
sixty nine against repeal.
560
00:38:32,422 --> 00:38:35,592
Virgil, is that enough for
you to make a projection?
561
00:38:35,662 --> 00:38:41,292
Yes, I think very definitely that
the ordinance is going to be repealed.
562
00:38:41,372 --> 00:38:43,562
With this margin, it's over.
563
00:38:43,632 --> 00:38:47,332
Tonight, the laws of God
564
00:38:47,402 --> 00:38:51,502
and the cultural values
of man have been vindicated.
565
00:38:51,582 --> 00:38:55,242
The people of Dade County,
the normal majority,
566
00:38:55,312 --> 00:39:00,182
have said,
"Enough, enough, enough."
567
00:39:00,252 --> 00:39:03,412
Singer Anita
Bryant's well publicized...
568
00:39:10,932 --> 00:39:12,332
Scotty?
569
00:39:12,402 --> 00:39:14,832
I'm sorry, sir, I read
about you in the paper.
570
00:39:14,902 --> 00:39:17,372
I'm sorry.
I can't talk right now.
571
00:39:17,942 --> 00:39:19,492
Sir, I think I'm
gonna kill myself.
572
00:39:21,812 --> 00:39:23,862
No. You don't
want to do that.
573
00:39:24,782 --> 00:39:26,612
Where are you calling from?
574
00:39:26,682 --> 00:39:27,972
Minnesota.
575
00:39:29,882 --> 00:39:32,642
You saw my picture in
the paper in Minnesota?
576
00:39:32,722 --> 00:39:33,742
How did I look?
577
00:39:33,822 --> 00:39:39,452
My folks are gonna take me to this
place tomorrow. A hospital. To fix me.
578
00:39:42,062 --> 00:39:44,432
There's nothing wrong
with you. Listen to me.
579
00:39:44,502 --> 00:39:47,232
You just get on a bus to
the nearest biggest city.
580
00:39:47,302 --> 00:39:50,172
Los Angeles or New
York or San Francisco,
581
00:39:50,232 --> 00:39:51,702
it doesn't matter,
you just leave.
582
00:39:51,772 --> 00:39:54,242
And you are not sick,
583
00:39:54,312 --> 00:39:57,142
and you are not wrong
and God does not hate you.
584
00:39:57,512 --> 00:39:58,572
Just leave.
585
00:40:01,012 --> 00:40:03,982
I can't.
I can't walk, sir.
586
00:40:04,052 --> 00:40:06,112
Paul, I need
you to come out here.
587
00:40:06,182 --> 00:40:07,242
Hello?
588
00:40:07,322 --> 00:40:09,312
Harvey!
589
00:40:09,392 --> 00:40:10,442
Hello?
590
00:40:11,792 --> 00:40:13,312
Oh, shit.
591
00:40:13,392 --> 00:40:16,522
Harvey, you better come down,
there's going to be a riot.
592
00:40:29,672 --> 00:40:31,832
Harvey, you should get to the stage.
593
00:40:31,912 --> 00:40:33,602
Bring him the stage, guys.
594
00:40:34,752 --> 00:40:37,442
If you can't control
them, we will.
595
00:40:37,512 --> 00:40:39,912
Just get me permission
to march them.
596
00:40:39,982 --> 00:40:41,382
Where?
597
00:40:41,452 --> 00:40:42,542
Anywhere.
598
00:40:56,802 --> 00:40:58,772
Out of the bar
and into the streets!
599
00:40:58,842 --> 00:41:01,172
Anita Bryant's coming for you!
600
00:41:02,542 --> 00:41:04,472
Out of the bar
and into the streets!
601
00:41:04,542 --> 00:41:06,842
Anita Bryant's coming for you!
602
00:41:06,912 --> 00:41:14,912
We have vowed to fight back!
603
00:41:34,772 --> 00:41:36,872
I know you are angry.
604
00:41:41,382 --> 00:41:43,212
I am angry!
605
00:41:45,252 --> 00:41:51,592
Let's march the streets of San
Francisco and share our anger!
606
00:41:59,762 --> 00:42:01,632
Gay rights now!
607
00:42:01,702 --> 00:42:04,962
Gay rights now!
Gay rights now!
608
00:42:05,042 --> 00:42:09,672
Gay rights now! Gay
rights now! Gay rights now!
609
00:42:09,742 --> 00:42:12,542
Gay rights now!
Gay rights now!
610
00:42:12,612 --> 00:42:14,172
Gay rights now!
611
00:42:14,242 --> 00:42:15,712
Gay rights now!
612
00:42:15,782 --> 00:42:16,858
Gay rights now!
Gay rights now!
613
00:42:16,882 --> 00:42:24,882
Gay rights now!
Gay rights now!
614
00:42:26,892 --> 00:42:33,062
Gay rights now!
Gay rights now!
615
00:42:48,182 --> 00:42:50,742
My name is Harvey Milk
and I want to recruit you.
616
00:42:54,052 --> 00:42:56,252
I am here tonight to say
617
00:42:57,222 --> 00:43:01,562
that we will no longer
sit quietly in the closet.
618
00:43:02,762 --> 00:43:04,822
We must fight.
619
00:43:04,902 --> 00:43:07,562
And not only in the Castro,
620
00:43:07,632 --> 00:43:10,862
not only in San Francisco,
621
00:43:10,932 --> 00:43:13,562
but everywhere the Anitas go.
622
00:43:15,212 --> 00:43:17,802
Anita Bryant
did not win tonight.
623
00:43:18,242 --> 00:43:21,682
Anita Bryant
brought us together!
624
00:43:24,382 --> 00:43:30,582
She is going to create
a national gay force!
625
00:43:35,532 --> 00:43:40,692
And the young people
in Jackson, Mississippi,
626
00:43:42,032 --> 00:43:45,592
in Minnesota, in the Richmond,
627
00:43:46,702 --> 00:43:48,302
in Woodmere, New York,
628
00:43:49,712 --> 00:43:54,232
who are hearing
her on television,
629
00:43:54,312 --> 00:43:58,212
hearing Anita Bryant
on television,
630
00:43:58,282 --> 00:44:02,582
telling them they are
sick, they are wrong,
631
00:44:03,222 --> 00:44:07,782
there is no place in this
great country for them,
632
00:44:07,862 --> 00:44:10,422
no place in this world,
633
00:44:10,492 --> 00:44:13,992
they are looking to us
for something tonight.
634
00:44:15,472 --> 00:44:17,462
And I say
635
00:44:17,532 --> 00:44:20,802
we have got to give them hope!
636
00:44:23,872 --> 00:44:24,902
Hope!
637
00:44:25,142 --> 00:44:28,842
For a better world.
Hope for a better tomorrow.
638
00:44:29,652 --> 00:44:32,952
Hope for a better place to come into
if the pressures at home are too great.
639
00:44:33,022 --> 00:44:36,852
Hope for the worker who
awakens from the American dream
640
00:44:36,922 --> 00:44:39,752
only to find that all the
jobs have left the country.
641
00:44:39,822 --> 00:44:41,812
We've got to give them hope.
642
00:44:54,672 --> 00:44:58,162
When San Francisco
changed its voting rules,
643
00:44:58,242 --> 00:45:01,212
so that people could elect people
from their own neighborhood,
644
00:45:01,282 --> 00:45:05,372
so that the blacks could elect
a African-American supervisor,
645
00:45:05,452 --> 00:45:08,482
and in Chinatown, they could
elect a Chinese supervisor,
646
00:45:08,552 --> 00:45:12,612
and in the Castro, they could choose
between myself and Rick Stokes.
647
00:45:13,192 --> 00:45:15,092
But decent art
begs balance, right?
648
00:45:15,162 --> 00:45:18,562
So, little district eight,
two miles south of the Castro,
649
00:45:18,632 --> 00:45:22,732
still very much the same.
Irish Catholic, conservative.
650
00:45:22,802 --> 00:45:25,062
And with just the
right amount of poetry,
651
00:45:25,142 --> 00:45:27,932
they found themselves
a handsome ex-cop.
652
00:45:28,342 --> 00:45:30,902
See, I'm not going to be
forced out of San Francisco
653
00:45:30,972 --> 00:45:36,112
by splinter groups of social radicals,
social deviants, and incorrigibles.
654
00:45:36,182 --> 00:45:40,082
Now you must realize that there are
thousands upon thousands of frustrated,
655
00:45:40,152 --> 00:45:42,812
angry people,
such as yourselves,
656
00:45:42,892 --> 00:45:46,082
just waiting to unleash
a fury that will eradicate
657
00:45:46,162 --> 00:45:49,092
the malignancies that
blight our beautiful city.
658
00:45:52,432 --> 00:45:55,872
Just one more. We can't let
Rick Stokes take this one.
659
00:45:55,932 --> 00:45:57,762
Let Rick Stokes take it.
660
00:46:05,282 --> 00:46:06,572
Sorry.
661
00:46:09,512 --> 00:46:11,452
I can't do another one.
662
00:46:55,732 --> 00:46:59,462
Oh, God damn it.
663
00:47:21,422 --> 00:47:23,392
Bring out the old,
bring in the new.
664
00:47:23,452 --> 00:47:25,722
This is over. Done.
665
00:47:25,792 --> 00:47:28,722
I don't want to see one more thing
that says fucking Assembly on it.
666
00:47:28,792 --> 00:47:33,862
'Cause this three time faggot
loser is running for supervisor.
667
00:47:33,932 --> 00:47:35,992
There she is.
Who the heck is that?
668
00:47:36,072 --> 00:47:38,092
That's our new campaign manager.
669
00:47:38,172 --> 00:47:41,232
She called last week to volunteer
and I asked for her help.
670
00:47:41,302 --> 00:47:44,032
Help or take over?
What about Scott?
671
00:47:44,112 --> 00:47:45,602
We need new blood.
672
00:47:45,682 --> 00:47:49,482
Gentlemen, Anne Kronenberg.
A woman.
673
00:47:49,552 --> 00:47:53,072
A woman who likes women.
And that's odd, isn't it?
674
00:47:53,152 --> 00:47:54,712
Hi, guys.
675
00:47:54,792 --> 00:47:58,452
Mr. Milk, Rick Stokes isn't pulling out.
676
00:47:58,522 --> 00:48:00,962
He's officially filed
to run against you.
677
00:48:01,022 --> 00:48:04,322
My friend at The Advocate says
David Goodstein is backing him.
678
00:48:04,392 --> 00:48:06,622
So, a gay candidate
against a gay candidate.
679
00:48:06,702 --> 00:48:08,132
That's unfortunate.
680
00:48:08,202 --> 00:48:09,508
Let's find out when they
are going to announce.
681
00:48:09,532 --> 00:48:11,362
So you replaced
Scott with a lesbian?
682
00:48:11,442 --> 00:48:13,732
Anne worked on a recycling
campaign up north.
683
00:48:13,802 --> 00:48:16,402
She's very, very organized.
We need that.
684
00:48:16,472 --> 00:48:18,502
How do you know she's
not a plant for Rick Stokes?
685
00:48:18,582 --> 00:48:20,812
Are you guys
always this paranoid?
686
00:48:20,882 --> 00:48:23,472
Yes. We take after Harvey.
687
00:48:23,552 --> 00:48:25,482
Don't you have someone's
laundry to do?
688
00:48:25,552 --> 00:48:27,412
Shouldn't you be at
a hairdressing convention?
689
00:48:28,852 --> 00:48:31,322
Sir, my girlfriends say
you guys don't like women.
690
00:48:31,392 --> 00:48:32,652
I'm just asking.
691
00:48:32,722 --> 00:48:36,452
Is there a place for us in all
this or are you all scared of girls?
692
00:48:39,432 --> 00:48:40,952
Okay, gentlemen,
693
00:48:41,032 --> 00:48:43,362
we've already got a tinker
bell, a lotus blossom.
694
00:48:43,432 --> 00:48:45,118
We've got Jim and Dick
in their three-piece suits.
695
00:48:45,142 --> 00:48:49,332
We need someone to manage
things. A woman this time.
696
00:48:50,572 --> 00:48:52,242
Plus, she's the right price,
697
00:48:52,312 --> 00:48:54,782
and she's got bigger balls
than anybody else in here.
698
00:48:54,852 --> 00:48:57,228
Just give me whatever is in the
register at the end of the day.
699
00:48:57,252 --> 00:49:02,982
So should I call The Chronicle about
getting us an actual endorsement this time?
700
00:49:03,052 --> 00:49:04,182
No?
701
00:49:04,252 --> 00:49:07,162
Yeah, call The Chronicle,
sweetheart. Tell them I said hi.
702
00:49:07,222 --> 00:49:10,062
Please call. In fact,
don't drive down there.
703
00:49:10,132 --> 00:49:11,922
You'll scare
the shit out of them.
704
00:49:13,702 --> 00:49:15,222
Call.
705
00:49:15,302 --> 00:49:16,392
All right.
706
00:49:16,472 --> 00:49:17,872
Hi, I'm Cleve.
707
00:49:17,932 --> 00:49:19,632
Anne. Good to meet you.
708
00:49:19,702 --> 00:49:22,472
I was telling Harvey we needed
some tough dykes around here, so...
709
00:49:22,542 --> 00:49:23,942
Well, you got one.
710
00:50:13,962 --> 00:50:15,052
All right.
711
00:50:15,132 --> 00:50:18,122
First ever newspaper
endorsement.
712
00:50:18,202 --> 00:50:20,892
And we got the Bay Guardian,
713
00:50:20,962 --> 00:50:23,692
The Sentinel and
The Bay Area Reporter.
714
00:50:27,142 --> 00:50:31,542
You are pulling your weight.
Oh, this is sensational!
715
00:50:32,942 --> 00:50:35,612
They endorsed you for
being a good businessman?
716
00:50:35,682 --> 00:50:38,582
Oh, my gosh, you really
are a miracle worker.
717
00:50:38,652 --> 00:50:40,982
Scott has got to read this.
He's just gonna piss himself.
718
00:50:41,052 --> 00:50:42,782
Yeah, you should show him.
719
00:50:43,722 --> 00:50:45,038
You know what you should do, Cleve,
720
00:50:45,062 --> 00:50:48,352
you should get yourself a boy to
celebrate with, just in case we win.
721
00:50:48,432 --> 00:50:49,822
Anybody want to buy me a drink?
722
00:50:49,892 --> 00:50:51,722
Oh, I will buy you a drink.
723
00:50:51,802 --> 00:50:53,262
How about a bottle of champagne?
724
00:50:54,562 --> 00:50:57,802
We are going to The Stud
right fucking now.
725
00:50:57,872 --> 00:50:59,878
Harvey, are you going to
come? You're gonna miss out?
726
00:50:59,902 --> 00:51:02,632
Go, go, go, go. I want
to be with my newspaper.
727
00:51:05,482 --> 00:51:07,142
Come on, let's go.
Come on, I'm buying.
728
00:51:07,212 --> 00:51:09,742
You're not buying.
You don't have any money.
729
00:51:18,292 --> 00:51:20,022
Gonna win this time, Milk?
730
00:51:59,262 --> 00:52:01,532
You look more
handsome in the poster.
731
00:52:02,832 --> 00:52:03,962
Oh, thank you.
732
00:52:06,742 --> 00:52:10,472
You know, palominos
are my favorite horse.
733
00:52:10,972 --> 00:52:12,672
They're smart.
734
00:52:13,282 --> 00:52:15,612
But they're compact and fast.
735
00:52:15,682 --> 00:52:17,612
I like that.
736
00:52:21,052 --> 00:52:24,952
You think I'm more
like a palomino,
737
00:52:26,562 --> 00:52:28,682
or a stallion?
738
00:52:29,462 --> 00:52:31,952
You know, with big balls and...
739
00:52:32,032 --> 00:52:35,192
Oh, oh, oh, oh!
Here, let me help you.
740
00:52:37,632 --> 00:52:39,362
You okay?
741
00:52:39,442 --> 00:52:41,462
Yeah, it's...
Come in.
742
00:52:41,542 --> 00:52:44,302
Here, just lean on me.
743
00:52:44,372 --> 00:52:45,812
Thank you.
What happened?
744
00:52:45,882 --> 00:52:48,142
I don't know, these
boots are too big for me.
745
00:52:48,212 --> 00:52:52,202
Oh, well, let's get you in
and get those off your feet.
746
00:52:52,282 --> 00:52:54,582
Where you going?
747
00:52:54,652 --> 00:52:56,742
I have some things to do.
748
00:52:56,822 --> 00:52:59,452
I got to go and meet
some friends. No, no, no.
749
00:53:10,272 --> 00:53:12,732
My father beat
me when he found out.
750
00:53:13,042 --> 00:53:15,442
So, that's why I came here.
751
00:53:16,742 --> 00:53:23,012
But, I'm living with this
guy that... I don't know.
752
00:53:23,682 --> 00:53:25,552
I don't like him.
753
00:53:28,522 --> 00:53:30,712
Nobody will ever beat you again.
754
00:53:35,592 --> 00:53:38,822
I love you.
I love you.
755
00:53:40,102 --> 00:53:42,062
Do you even remember my name?
756
00:53:47,272 --> 00:53:48,902
No.
757
00:53:48,972 --> 00:53:50,172
Harvey.
758
00:53:51,542 --> 00:53:52,802
I'm Harvey.
759
00:53:54,112 --> 00:53:56,872
Harvey, I love you.
760
00:54:08,092 --> 00:54:09,182
Thanks.
761
00:54:09,262 --> 00:54:10,352
Thank you.
762
00:54:21,342 --> 00:54:24,072
For the first
time, it all came together.
763
00:54:24,142 --> 00:54:29,982
The union boys, women, the
seniors, the gays and minorities.
764
00:54:30,052 --> 00:54:32,342
All of the "us's" showed up.
765
00:54:32,422 --> 00:54:34,352
We can hear it,
we can't really see too much,
766
00:54:34,422 --> 00:54:36,852
but it looks and sounds
to you and to me
767
00:54:36,922 --> 00:54:39,252
like New Year's Eve
on Market Street.
768
00:54:43,592 --> 00:54:45,822
We did it!
769
00:54:45,902 --> 00:54:47,832
I love you all!
770
00:55:03,652 --> 00:55:07,952
We are the movement. We are
the movement. Thank you so much.
771
00:55:08,552 --> 00:55:09,998
Come on, we just want
to congratulate him.
772
00:55:10,022 --> 00:55:12,582
No, I understand, but
right now we're all full.
773
00:55:16,292 --> 00:55:18,192
Harvey!
774
00:55:18,262 --> 00:55:19,392
Harvey!
Harvey!
775
00:55:19,462 --> 00:55:21,692
Hey, Harvey!
776
00:55:23,232 --> 00:55:24,332
Hey.
777
00:55:24,402 --> 00:55:27,802
Sorry, it's just so crowded.
778
00:55:27,872 --> 00:55:30,142
Come in, sorry, sorry.
779
00:55:30,212 --> 00:55:32,902
It's so crowded.
It's just so crowded.
780
00:55:33,742 --> 00:55:35,342
Harvey, man!
781
00:55:40,622 --> 00:55:41,712
Scotty!
782
00:55:43,352 --> 00:55:46,152
Is this all for you, Harvey?
Are you this famous, baby?
783
00:55:46,222 --> 00:55:48,192
No, we do this all the time.
You like it?
784
00:55:48,262 --> 00:55:49,322
Yeah.
785
00:55:49,392 --> 00:55:53,162
The new Mrs. Milk.
I give it a week.
786
00:55:53,232 --> 00:55:57,462
Gordon Lau, Carol Ruth Silver. It's the
most liberal board in years. In history!
787
00:55:58,132 --> 00:55:59,972
What about Dan White?
Did he win?
788
00:56:00,042 --> 00:56:02,332
We'll deal with him tomorrow. Oh, God.
789
00:56:14,622 --> 00:56:17,422
Does this mean,
as many straights are concerned,
790
00:56:17,492 --> 00:56:20,322
maybe the gays are taking
over San Francisco?
791
00:56:20,392 --> 00:56:23,592
Are you going to be a
supervisor for all the people?
792
00:56:23,662 --> 00:56:26,062
Well, I have to be. That's
what I was elected for.
793
00:56:26,132 --> 00:56:28,722
I have to be there to
open for the dialogue,
794
00:56:28,802 --> 00:56:31,772
for the sensitivities of all
people and all their problems.
795
00:56:31,832 --> 00:56:34,672
The problems that affect
this city, affect us all.
796
00:56:35,312 --> 00:56:36,802
Okay, well, congratulations.
797
00:56:36,872 --> 00:56:39,362
Thank you.
Thank you, San Francisco!
798
00:56:41,312 --> 00:56:42,642
And that's Harvey Milk,
799
00:56:42,712 --> 00:56:45,652
celebrating his election to the
San Francisco Board of Supervisors.
800
00:56:45,722 --> 00:56:48,012
For Channel Five news,
I'm Mary Dilts.
801
00:56:50,452 --> 00:56:54,752
I, Harvey Milk,
do solemnly swear...
802
00:56:54,822 --> 00:57:01,622
That I will support and defend
the Constitution of the United States...
803
00:57:01,702 --> 00:57:05,402
During such time as I
hold the office of supervisor,
804
00:57:05,472 --> 00:57:08,342
City and County
of San Francisco.
805
00:57:08,402 --> 00:57:12,072
During such time as I hold
the office of supervisor,
806
00:57:12,142 --> 00:57:14,742
City and County
of San Francisco.
807
00:57:14,812 --> 00:57:16,972
Congratulations, Harvey.
Thank you, Mayor.
808
00:57:20,182 --> 00:57:25,022
Anita Bryant said that it was gay people
that brought the drought to California.
809
00:57:25,722 --> 00:57:29,682
Well, it looks to me as though
it's finally started raining.
810
00:57:30,962 --> 00:57:32,592
This will be
the first time in many years
811
00:57:32,662 --> 00:57:35,632
that we've seen so many new
faces on the Board of Supervisors.
812
00:57:35,702 --> 00:57:38,692
Do you think such diversity
will cripple the board?
813
00:57:38,772 --> 00:57:42,072
Well, the name of the game is
six votes to get anything passed.
814
00:57:42,142 --> 00:57:43,632
So, whether you like it or not,
815
00:57:43,712 --> 00:57:45,872
Dan and I are in bed together.
816
00:57:45,942 --> 00:57:47,432
Politically speaking.
817
00:57:47,842 --> 00:57:50,012
You see, I've assured
Harvey here that, uh,
818
00:57:50,082 --> 00:57:52,602
my brochure's comments
about social deviants
819
00:57:52,682 --> 00:57:55,622
referred more to junkies
than to his people.
820
00:57:55,692 --> 00:57:57,812
See, I'm about to
have my first child
821
00:57:57,892 --> 00:58:01,652
and I had to make sure that this city
remains a decent place to raise him.
822
00:58:02,792 --> 00:58:05,592
Well, thank you so much
for coming on the show, gentlemen,
823
00:58:05,662 --> 00:58:07,292
and we'll see what happens.
824
00:58:07,362 --> 00:58:08,648
HARVEY/ That's it?
It's over? We're finished?
825
00:58:08,672 --> 00:58:09,722
Yes.
826
00:58:09,802 --> 00:58:11,732
That was quick.
Thank you.
827
00:58:12,302 --> 00:58:14,002
How long were
you a fireman, Dan?
828
00:58:14,072 --> 00:58:15,472
A couple of years.
829
00:58:15,542 --> 00:58:17,562
And you were a police
officer before that?
830
00:58:17,642 --> 00:58:19,402
You got something
against cops, Harv?
831
00:58:19,482 --> 00:58:21,712
No, no. They tend
to against me though.
832
00:58:21,782 --> 00:58:24,212
But firefighters,
they're the true heroes.
833
00:58:24,282 --> 00:58:27,042
They supported me on my last
campaign. I fully support them.
834
00:58:27,122 --> 00:58:28,782
I appreciate that.
835
00:58:28,852 --> 00:58:30,822
I meant what I said.
I'd like to work together.
836
00:58:30,892 --> 00:58:32,512
Me, too.
I'll see you later.
837
00:58:32,592 --> 00:58:33,592
Okay.
838
00:58:47,102 --> 00:58:50,202
Oh. What do you think of my new theater?
839
00:58:50,272 --> 00:58:51,742
A bit over the top.
840
00:58:53,942 --> 00:58:55,742
You're wearing a suit?
841
00:58:55,812 --> 00:58:57,142
I got it from a friend.
842
00:58:57,212 --> 00:58:58,412
No, no, no, no.
843
00:58:58,482 --> 00:59:02,112
Anytime you come here, I want you
to wear the tightest jeans possible.
844
00:59:02,192 --> 00:59:05,212
Never blend in. And
never take the elevator.
845
00:59:05,292 --> 00:59:06,552
Always use the stairs.
846
00:59:06,622 --> 00:59:11,622
You can make such a grand
entrance by taking these stairs.
847
00:59:11,992 --> 00:59:13,192
Hello.
848
00:59:13,732 --> 00:59:15,252
Carol, friend.
849
00:59:16,702 --> 00:59:18,132
Dan White.
850
00:59:20,242 --> 00:59:21,462
Hello, Dianne.
851
00:59:23,542 --> 00:59:25,772
And then this is
Gordon Lau's office.
852
00:59:25,842 --> 00:59:27,402
Anne, can you set Cleve up on mail?
853
00:59:27,482 --> 00:59:28,642
Will do.
854
00:59:30,312 --> 00:59:31,712
Okay,
855
00:59:31,782 --> 00:59:33,982
first order of business
to come out of this office
856
00:59:34,052 --> 00:59:35,752
is a citywide
Gay Rights Ordinance,
857
00:59:35,822 --> 00:59:38,552
just like the one that Anita
shot down in Dade County.
858
00:59:38,622 --> 00:59:39,838
What do you think,
Lotus Blossom?
859
00:59:39,862 --> 00:59:41,982
I think it's good.
It's not great.
860
00:59:42,062 --> 00:59:46,052
Okay, so make it brilliant. We want
Anita's attention here in San Francisco.
861
00:59:46,132 --> 00:59:48,222
I want her to bring her fight to us.
862
00:59:48,302 --> 00:59:51,322
We need a unanimous
vote, we need headlines.
863
00:59:51,402 --> 00:59:53,032
Dan White is not
gonna vote for this.
864
00:59:53,102 --> 00:59:54,332
Dan White will be fine.
865
00:59:54,402 --> 00:59:56,672
Dan White is just
uneducated. We'll teach him.
866
00:59:56,742 --> 00:59:59,302
Hey, Harv,
committee meets at 9:30.
867
00:59:59,712 --> 01:00:00,842
Hey, you guys.
868
01:00:00,912 --> 01:00:03,672
Say, did you get the invitation
to my son's christening?
869
01:00:03,752 --> 01:00:05,542
I invited a few of
the other Supes, too.
870
01:00:05,622 --> 01:00:07,382
Oh, I'll be there.
871
01:00:07,452 --> 01:00:09,252
Great! Thanks.
872
01:00:10,192 --> 01:00:12,152
Did he hear you?
What the fuck!
873
01:00:12,222 --> 01:00:14,092
Are you going?
874
01:00:14,162 --> 01:00:15,830
I would let him christen
me if it means he's
875
01:00:15,842 --> 01:00:17,408
gonna vote for the
Gay Rights Ordinance.
876
01:00:17,432 --> 01:00:20,052
We need allies.
We need everyone.
877
01:00:20,762 --> 01:00:22,252
I don't think he heard you.
878
01:00:22,332 --> 01:00:24,062
Is it just me or is he cute?
879
01:00:46,662 --> 01:00:47,822
Jack?
880
01:00:48,262 --> 01:00:52,162
Welcome home, Harvey.
I hope you're hungry.
881
01:00:52,602 --> 01:00:55,622
I just know how to cook one
thing, but I make it good.
882
01:00:56,872 --> 01:00:58,232
Come.
883
01:00:58,302 --> 01:01:00,132
Jack, did you break in?
884
01:01:00,202 --> 01:01:03,642
No, no, no. I asked the little
boy downstairs to let me in.
885
01:01:03,712 --> 01:01:04,902
Danny?
Yeah.
886
01:01:04,972 --> 01:01:07,702
He wouldn't let me,
so I came in this way.
887
01:01:08,982 --> 01:01:11,572
You know, your friends aren't
very nice to me, Harvey.
888
01:01:11,652 --> 01:01:13,312
I have a Town Hall
meeting tonight.
889
01:01:13,382 --> 01:01:17,322
Sit down. Come, five minutes.
That's it. Come, please.
890
01:01:18,752 --> 01:01:20,382
There you go.
891
01:01:21,362 --> 01:01:24,192
I watched TV here
today, all day.
892
01:01:24,262 --> 01:01:26,092
I saw All My Children.
893
01:01:27,662 --> 01:01:30,832
And they killed Margo. But I
knew it was going to happen.
894
01:01:32,472 --> 01:01:35,702
You know, they always try and
trick you but it never works.
895
01:01:36,872 --> 01:01:38,672
You always see it coming.
896
01:01:38,742 --> 01:01:43,872
What? Killing the blonde?
Yeah, I'm good with that.
897
01:01:48,752 --> 01:01:50,312
Jack.
What?
898
01:01:50,592 --> 01:01:52,322
If I make you a key,
899
01:01:53,592 --> 01:01:55,822
will you promise never
to break in again?
900
01:01:57,492 --> 01:01:58,962
That's right.
901
01:02:09,912 --> 01:02:13,932
Is it your will that Charles should
be baptized in the faith of the church
902
01:02:14,012 --> 01:02:15,882
which we have all
professed with you?
903
01:02:15,952 --> 01:02:17,472
It is.
It is.
904
01:02:21,352 --> 01:02:24,582
Charles, I baptize you
in the name of the Father
905
01:02:24,652 --> 01:02:28,022
and of the Son and
of the Holy Spirit.
906
01:02:34,632 --> 01:02:37,792
God, the father of our Lord Jesus
Christ has freed you from sin...
907
01:02:37,872 --> 01:02:40,132
I'm proposing
a citywide ordinance
908
01:02:40,202 --> 01:02:43,002
which would ensure that any
person who already has a job
909
01:02:43,072 --> 01:02:45,912
cannot be fired on the
basis of sexual orientation.
910
01:02:46,882 --> 01:02:49,872
I don't think my constituents
would favor that, Harvey.
911
01:02:52,652 --> 01:02:55,342
Is there anyone else here
from the board today, Dan?
912
01:02:56,252 --> 01:02:58,522
You're the only one
who showed, I think.
913
01:02:58,592 --> 01:02:59,712
Were you christened here?
914
01:02:59,792 --> 01:03:02,312
I was. Right here, same parish.
915
01:03:02,392 --> 01:03:05,422
My grandma immigrated here when
this was an Irish Catholic city,
916
01:03:05,492 --> 01:03:07,192
the City of Saint Francis.
917
01:03:07,962 --> 01:03:09,608
But a lot's changed here
since then, you know.
918
01:03:09,632 --> 01:03:12,162
You're more like one
of us now, an outsider.
919
01:03:12,772 --> 01:03:15,642
You're not like most
homosexuals, are you, Harvey?
920
01:03:16,542 --> 01:03:19,012
Do you know a lot
of homosexuals, Dan?
921
01:03:21,712 --> 01:03:25,672
Hey, where do you stand
on the Psychiatric Center
922
01:03:25,752 --> 01:03:28,082
that the city's been
pushing into my district?
923
01:03:28,652 --> 01:03:30,712
Well, I'd have to study it...
924
01:03:30,792 --> 01:03:35,162
It was a key piece on my platform.
Getting it out of my district.
925
01:03:35,222 --> 01:03:37,538
It only attracts arsonists, rapists,
that sort of thing, you know.
926
01:03:37,562 --> 01:03:38,862
A campaign promise.
927
01:03:38,932 --> 01:03:40,662
A big one.
Sure.
928
01:03:42,732 --> 01:03:44,552
What do you say we
watch out for each
929
01:03:44,564 --> 01:03:46,792
other's interests? I
would really like that.
930
01:03:46,872 --> 01:03:49,002
I'd like that too, Dan.
Good.
931
01:03:49,642 --> 01:03:51,972
Sorry, hon, we just
slipped into some shop talk.
932
01:03:52,042 --> 01:03:54,172
The Gay Rights Ordinance.
My fault.
933
01:03:54,582 --> 01:03:56,842
Seems like an inappropriate
subject, don't you think?
934
01:03:56,912 --> 01:03:59,312
Oh, don't knock it
till you've tried it.
935
01:04:00,752 --> 01:04:04,852
Hello. Oh, oh, but you had
such a beautiful christening.
936
01:04:04,922 --> 01:04:06,982
Supervisors Silver and
Lau are asking you to vote
937
01:04:07,062 --> 01:04:09,052
to keep this Psychiatric
Center in Dan's district.
938
01:04:09,132 --> 01:04:11,962
It'll go down six to five
if you vote to get rid of it.
939
01:04:12,032 --> 01:04:13,462
It's a youth campus, Harvey.
940
01:04:13,532 --> 01:04:15,772
And these are kids that would
be displaced from families.
941
01:04:15,832 --> 01:04:17,992
I can't just dump Dan. He's
got nothing going for him.
942
01:04:18,072 --> 01:04:19,192
No friends...
943
01:04:19,272 --> 01:04:22,672
Oh, God, oh, God! Here we go,
here we go. Harvey to the rescue.
944
01:04:22,742 --> 01:04:25,042
Isn't it enough that we
have to put up with Jack?
945
01:04:25,112 --> 01:04:28,042
All right, lay off. He
registered 120 voters last week.
946
01:04:28,112 --> 01:04:29,542
Okay, so do any
of your volunteers,
947
01:04:29,612 --> 01:04:31,812
but you don't go and
make them all first lady.
948
01:04:31,882 --> 01:04:34,582
Harvey, what does
Dan White do for you?
949
01:04:34,652 --> 01:04:36,682
Really, politically.
950
01:04:37,692 --> 01:04:40,452
He intrigues me.
I think he may be one of us.
951
01:04:40,522 --> 01:04:41,682
No, no.
952
01:04:41,762 --> 01:04:43,422
It's just a theory.
953
01:04:43,492 --> 01:04:44,962
You just think he's cute.
954
01:04:45,032 --> 01:04:48,262
No, no. I know what it's
like to live that life.
955
01:04:48,332 --> 01:04:52,062
That lie. I can see it in Dan's
eyes. That fear, the pressure.
956
01:04:58,672 --> 01:05:00,642
Good or bad?
Not great.
957
01:05:01,182 --> 01:05:05,512
State Senator John Briggs is Anita
Bryant's go-to guy in California for sure.
958
01:05:06,052 --> 01:05:09,072
He filed a petition for
a statewide referendum
959
01:05:09,152 --> 01:05:12,182
to fire all gay teachers
and anyone who supports them.
960
01:05:12,962 --> 01:05:15,082
How many signatures does he
need to get on the ballot?
961
01:05:15,122 --> 01:05:19,622
Oh, whatever. He can get them in two
Sundays at church in Orange fucking County.
962
01:05:22,602 --> 01:05:26,062
So, this means that
the fight is coming here,
963
01:05:27,342 --> 01:05:29,672
where we can do
something about it.
964
01:05:30,342 --> 01:05:32,532
The issue in
California is whether school boards
965
01:05:32,612 --> 01:05:35,912
should be allowed to fire
teachers who are known homosexuals.
966
01:05:35,982 --> 01:05:37,912
The courts have
ruled they cannot.
967
01:05:37,982 --> 01:05:41,972
Boards must prove a teacher's
homosexuality adversely affects children
968
01:05:42,052 --> 01:05:44,352
and makes them unfit
for the classroom.
969
01:05:44,422 --> 01:05:46,912
State Senator John Briggs
wants to change that.
970
01:05:46,992 --> 01:05:52,482
My proposition promises to protect our
children from these gay perverts and...
971
01:05:54,162 --> 01:05:57,962
These gay perverts and pedophiles
who recruit our children
972
01:05:58,032 --> 01:06:01,332
to participate in their
deviant lifestyle,
973
01:06:01,402 --> 01:06:04,432
including the ones who do
it in our public schools.
974
01:06:04,512 --> 01:06:08,672
The time has come
for us to root them out.
975
01:06:09,882 --> 01:06:12,112
How are you going to
determine who's homosexual?
976
01:06:12,182 --> 01:06:13,482
I'm sorry, sir, what?
977
01:06:13,552 --> 01:06:15,712
How are you going to
determine who's homosexual?
978
01:06:15,782 --> 01:06:18,812
Sir, my bill has procedures
for identifying homosexuals.
979
01:06:18,892 --> 01:06:21,692
Oh, yeah, how? Will you be
sucking them off, Briggs?
980
01:06:21,762 --> 01:06:25,062
Excuse me. You know what,
you can argue with me,
981
01:06:25,832 --> 01:06:27,822
you cannot argue with God.
982
01:06:33,772 --> 01:06:35,362
Harvey, I can't believe it.
983
01:06:35,442 --> 01:06:38,742
No, he wants my job. You
want my job, you prick!
984
01:06:38,812 --> 01:06:41,942
Sir, you were here when
State Senator Briggs was on the steps.
985
01:06:42,012 --> 01:06:43,412
What do you think about that?
986
01:06:43,482 --> 01:06:45,377
Well, I think what
you saw, you saw some
987
01:06:45,389 --> 01:06:47,582
very committed opposition
to his proposition.
988
01:06:47,652 --> 01:06:49,882
And I think that's
only going to continue.
989
01:06:49,952 --> 01:06:52,582
People have very emotional
reactions to this.
990
01:06:52,662 --> 01:06:54,262
This is their lives
that are on the line.
991
01:06:54,292 --> 01:06:56,352
What's going to happen?
992
01:06:56,432 --> 01:06:59,122
Well, look what
happened in Germany.
993
01:06:59,202 --> 01:07:02,822
I mean, Anita Bryant has already said that
the Jews and Muslims are going to hell.
994
01:07:02,902 --> 01:07:05,332
So, you know she
has a shopping list.
995
01:07:05,402 --> 01:07:08,432
And we are not going to let the
John Briggs' or the Anita Bryants
996
01:07:08,502 --> 01:07:10,472
legislate bigotry in this state.
997
01:07:15,112 --> 01:07:17,342
Hello, Harvey, running late?
998
01:07:17,412 --> 01:07:19,782
Your boyfriend is in the closet.
999
01:07:19,852 --> 01:07:21,182
Excuse me, David.
1000
01:07:21,252 --> 01:07:24,582
The Latino has locked himself
in the closet upstairs.
1001
01:07:24,652 --> 01:07:26,422
Harvey, Harvey,
Phil Burton is here.
1002
01:07:26,492 --> 01:07:28,552
He's likely the next
Speaker of the House
1003
01:07:28,622 --> 01:07:31,992
and a very important ally
against Proposition 6.
1004
01:07:32,062 --> 01:07:34,052
So, please,
no scenes, all right?
1005
01:07:37,432 --> 01:07:39,422
You're right. I was late by 20 minutes.
1006
01:07:39,502 --> 01:07:40,562
So come on out, Jack.
1007
01:07:40,642 --> 01:07:44,472
Who were you with? Scott? Or with
a new boy you were trying to save?
1008
01:07:44,542 --> 01:07:47,342
I was at work. Come on out, sweet pea.
1009
01:07:47,412 --> 01:07:49,072
You embarrassed me, Harvey.
1010
01:07:49,142 --> 01:07:52,052
I didn't know anyone down
there and they're bad people.
1011
01:07:53,682 --> 01:07:55,912
I just want to go, okay?
1012
01:07:55,992 --> 01:07:57,682
Then you should go home.
1013
01:07:58,892 --> 01:08:01,882
No, I want to stay.
I want to stay here.
1014
01:08:02,462 --> 01:08:05,332
So, you go away, okay?
Go away!
1015
01:08:10,202 --> 01:08:13,262
The Briggs initiative is polling
at 75% for approval statewide.
1016
01:08:13,342 --> 01:08:16,672
80% in other polls. Some even
have us losing San Francisco.
1017
01:08:16,742 --> 01:08:19,262
We deceive people into
thinking we can beat this,
1018
01:08:19,342 --> 01:08:21,642
we'll have riots and only
increase the backlash.
1019
01:08:21,712 --> 01:08:23,142
That's a good point, David.
1020
01:08:23,212 --> 01:08:26,582
Maybe we should just roll over and make
it easier for Briggs to fuck us in the ass.
1021
01:08:26,652 --> 01:08:28,882
We're taking this very
seriously in my office.
1022
01:08:28,952 --> 01:08:32,032
We want to send one of these to every
home in California and that takes money.
1023
01:08:32,092 --> 01:08:34,562
"Proposition 6 is
an affront to human rights.
1024
01:08:34,622 --> 01:08:38,822
"An invasion of the state into the
private lives of California citizens. ' '
1025
01:08:39,232 --> 01:08:42,062
Without a single mention of the
word gay on the entire flyer.
1026
01:08:42,132 --> 01:08:43,662
By design, Harvey.
1027
01:08:43,732 --> 01:08:45,632
Corey Wares is an out
gay teacher... Rick...
1028
01:08:45,702 --> 01:08:48,472
With the heat bearing down
on your movement right now,
1029
01:08:48,542 --> 01:08:51,702
we feel it's best to dodge the gay
bullet. Go for the human rights angle.
1030
01:08:51,772 --> 01:08:55,512
People need to know who it
is that's being affected.
1031
01:08:55,582 --> 01:08:58,172
You need at least one
old queer on this flyer.
1032
01:08:58,252 --> 01:09:00,198
Excuse me, yeah. Maybe you
should volunteer for that, David.
1033
01:09:00,222 --> 01:09:02,712
This is shit. This is
shit and masturbation.
1034
01:09:02,792 --> 01:09:05,692
It's just a coward's response
to a dangerous threat.
1035
01:09:14,932 --> 01:09:16,862
Come on, Jack.
It's time to go.
1036
01:09:17,272 --> 01:09:19,332
Get everyone
together at your place.
1037
01:09:19,402 --> 01:09:22,232
I want young people, I want
women, I want fresh heads.
1038
01:09:22,302 --> 01:09:26,042
Get organizers and fighters,
not politicians. Come on, Jack.
1039
01:09:26,112 --> 01:09:28,672
What about S-C-O-T-T?
1040
01:09:29,482 --> 01:09:30,602
Yeah.
1041
01:09:30,952 --> 01:09:32,682
Jack, come on.
1042
01:09:33,252 --> 01:09:34,358
We have to fight the machine.
1043
01:09:34,382 --> 01:09:36,852
They don't want to change,
they want to stay in the past.
1044
01:09:36,922 --> 01:09:38,552
Stop and be realistic about it.
1045
01:09:38,622 --> 01:09:42,582
Realistic? We're not interested in
staying in the closet, losing Prop 6.
1046
01:09:42,662 --> 01:09:45,092
We're all on the same side,
man, we're on the same side.
1047
01:09:46,502 --> 01:09:49,732
Hey, is anybody gonna pay the
pizza guy or we're just gonna stare?
1048
01:09:49,802 --> 01:09:51,432
How could we not stare?
1049
01:09:52,972 --> 01:09:54,602
Here, put out your hand.
1050
01:09:56,312 --> 01:09:59,332
You are shameless.
You are shameless.
1051
01:09:59,412 --> 01:10:01,602
I mean, I'm proud of you
but you are hysterical.
1052
01:10:01,682 --> 01:10:02,682
Hey.
1053
01:10:09,182 --> 01:10:11,382
We're going to convince the 90%
1054
01:10:12,552 --> 01:10:14,852
to give a shit about us 10%.
1055
01:10:14,922 --> 01:10:18,022
We have to let them
know who we are.
1056
01:10:19,632 --> 01:10:22,392
Everybody has to come out.
1057
01:10:22,462 --> 01:10:25,332
Across the entire state,
no matter where they live.
1058
01:10:25,802 --> 01:10:27,362
Come out, come out,
wherever you are.
1059
01:10:27,442 --> 01:10:30,872
If we're going to beat Prop 6,
we tell all of them to come out.
1060
01:10:30,942 --> 01:10:35,042
Every gay lawyer, teacher,
doctor, dog catcher.
1061
01:10:35,112 --> 01:10:37,142
We have to leave the ghetto.
1062
01:10:37,212 --> 01:10:42,172
We have to let all those people out
there know that they know one of us.
1063
01:10:42,252 --> 01:10:44,482
And if somebody doesn't want
to step out of the closet,
1064
01:10:44,552 --> 01:10:46,522
we open the door for them.
1065
01:10:46,592 --> 01:10:47,752
Jesus.
1066
01:10:47,822 --> 01:10:50,162
The whole state isn't
San Francisco, Harvey.
1067
01:10:50,232 --> 01:10:51,492
Clearly, Scott.
1068
01:10:51,562 --> 01:10:53,208
Harvey, that could
be really, really dangerous.
1069
01:10:53,232 --> 01:10:55,462
I mean, there's such a
thing as a right to privacy.
1070
01:10:55,532 --> 01:10:57,062
Privacy.
1071
01:10:58,132 --> 01:11:00,122
In this movement, at this time,
1072
01:11:00,202 --> 01:11:04,402
I'm not saying this as a
supervisor, privacy is the enemy.
1073
01:11:05,712 --> 01:11:10,442
And if you want real political
power, if that's what you want,
1074
01:11:10,512 --> 01:11:13,112
try telling the truth
for a change.
1075
01:11:13,182 --> 01:11:15,122
All right? Starting here.
1076
01:11:15,182 --> 01:11:18,242
If there's anyone in
this room, right now,
1077
01:11:19,252 --> 01:11:21,192
who hasn't told their families,
1078
01:11:21,262 --> 01:11:23,592
their friends, their employers,
1079
01:11:24,732 --> 01:11:26,162
do it now.
1080
01:11:26,902 --> 01:11:29,232
My folks know already.
1081
01:11:31,172 --> 01:11:33,192
My dad doesn't know yet.
1082
01:11:37,442 --> 01:11:39,572
They vote for us two to one.
1083
01:11:40,312 --> 01:11:42,682
If they know,
they know one of us.
1084
01:11:53,322 --> 01:11:55,522
As much as I'm sure
you'd all like to watch,
1085
01:11:55,592 --> 01:11:57,892
I don't think
that's such a good idea.
1086
01:12:00,332 --> 01:12:04,702
Cleve, could you show Dick where there's
a phone where he could speak in private?
1087
01:12:05,802 --> 01:12:07,892
There's one in the bedroom.
1088
01:12:22,852 --> 01:12:28,052
I just found myself clawing over
him, literally running to get him.
1089
01:12:28,122 --> 01:12:29,952
Oh, good night.
Good night.
1090
01:12:30,032 --> 01:12:31,622
Ciao, gang.
Sleep tight.
1091
01:12:31,692 --> 01:12:34,392
I thought
you got out of politics.
1092
01:12:34,462 --> 01:12:37,262
Politics.
Not the movement.
1093
01:12:38,132 --> 01:12:39,602
What the hell was that in there?
1094
01:12:39,672 --> 01:12:41,272
The movement needs people to be upfront.
1095
01:12:41,302 --> 01:12:43,132
Why were you
fighting me in there?
1096
01:12:43,212 --> 01:12:47,162
Those are kids in there. You're
asking them to lose their families.
1097
01:12:48,242 --> 01:12:50,942
If their families don't
love them for who they are,
1098
01:12:51,012 --> 01:12:53,352
who they really are, then
they should lose them.
1099
01:12:53,422 --> 01:12:55,182
That's fucking insane.
1100
01:12:55,252 --> 01:12:57,652
You were the biggest
closet case in New York.
1101
01:12:57,722 --> 01:13:00,242
You asked me and all your
boyfriends to keep our traps shut.
1102
01:13:00,322 --> 01:13:01,882
I mean, you're being the hypocrite.
1103
01:13:01,962 --> 01:13:05,592
My parents are gone. My brother
knew. I'm sure they knew.
1104
01:13:06,402 --> 01:13:10,832
How many times did I have
to listen to calls to Mom,
1105
01:13:10,902 --> 01:13:12,962
where you denied my existence?
1106
01:13:13,042 --> 01:13:16,202
And you want to be normal like
anybody. More than anybody.
1107
01:13:19,942 --> 01:13:22,142
Who's he?
You live together?
1108
01:13:23,312 --> 01:13:24,872
Someone I'm seeing.
1109
01:13:25,612 --> 01:13:27,812
Keeps me out of
trouble, out of the bars.
1110
01:13:29,482 --> 01:13:31,152
I miss you.
1111
01:13:31,952 --> 01:13:33,392
Harvey,
1112
01:13:34,692 --> 01:13:36,122
what's that about?
1113
01:13:36,192 --> 01:13:38,092
Harvey.
1114
01:13:39,192 --> 01:13:40,752
He needs me.
1115
01:13:50,172 --> 01:13:54,472
If there is an air of dishonesty
with this board and its members,
1116
01:13:54,542 --> 01:13:55,742
that is repugnant...
1117
01:13:55,812 --> 01:13:58,802
I have told no lies today or
to Supervisor White in the past.
1118
01:13:58,882 --> 01:14:00,358
Supervisor Milk,
you will come to order.
1119
01:14:00,382 --> 01:14:02,982
I would like it
noted that I never promised
1120
01:14:03,052 --> 01:14:04,882
to back moving any
mental health centers.
1121
01:14:04,952 --> 01:14:09,012
And that with great respect to Supervisor
White, I would like his remarks stricken.
1122
01:14:09,092 --> 01:14:13,322
Duly noted. We will take a 10 minute
recess before recording the vote.
1123
01:14:15,132 --> 01:14:17,122
Thank you, Harvey.
1124
01:14:18,232 --> 01:14:21,792
Can I have a moment with
Harvey? Alone, please, Carol?
1125
01:14:26,942 --> 01:14:29,812
Why? Why are you
turning on me like this?
1126
01:14:29,882 --> 01:14:31,812
At the last minute?
What did I do?
1127
01:14:31,882 --> 01:14:32,972
I never got the details.
1128
01:14:33,052 --> 01:14:35,572
Dan, if you want me to help
you draft another version of it
1129
01:14:35,652 --> 01:14:40,092
that doesn't shanghai every troubled
kid in your area, I'll be happy to.
1130
01:14:40,162 --> 01:14:44,922
Harvey, I can't go back to my family,
to my folks, to my district without this.
1131
01:14:44,992 --> 01:14:47,032
Don't do this. Well, I have
a lot of pressure on me.
1132
01:14:47,062 --> 01:14:48,622
So, you're just
stringing me along
1133
01:14:48,702 --> 01:14:50,208
and then you're just gonna throw
me to the wolves, is that it?
1134
01:14:50,232 --> 01:14:51,448
Dan, you only need one more vote.
1135
01:14:51,472 --> 01:14:54,162
You've got five other supervisors
you can convince besides me.
1136
01:14:54,242 --> 01:14:57,288
I'm gonna vote against your queer law
and I'm gonna get Quentin against it, too.
1137
01:14:57,312 --> 01:14:59,988
Oh, it's gonna pass anyway and you
can't keep alienating yourself here, Dan.
1138
01:15:00,012 --> 01:15:03,502
I gave you a chance, Harvey, okay?
I gave you a chance and you blew it!
1139
01:15:05,282 --> 01:15:06,802
You blew it.
1140
01:15:11,952 --> 01:15:14,182
The city council in
St. Paul, Minnesota
1141
01:15:14,262 --> 01:15:16,692
passed a law guaranteeing,
among other things,
1142
01:15:16,762 --> 01:15:19,892
equal rights in housing,
employment and education,
1143
01:15:19,962 --> 01:15:22,162
regardless of sexual preference.
1144
01:15:22,232 --> 01:15:24,702
Now, voters in that city have
made their disapproval clear.
1145
01:15:24,772 --> 01:15:29,142
Homosexuality is a question facing
the voters of Eugene, Oregon tomorrow.
1146
01:15:29,202 --> 01:15:31,872
A referendum to repeal
gay rights protection.
1147
01:15:32,242 --> 01:15:37,412
So, while we were fighting
Proposition 6 and Briggs in California,
1148
01:15:38,552 --> 01:15:40,712
I needed to put
a show on the road.
1149
01:15:41,452 --> 01:15:44,782
And our next stop,
Wichita, Kansas.
1150
01:15:44,852 --> 01:15:48,522
Voters of Wichita, Kansas
have overwhelmingly repealed
1151
01:15:48,592 --> 01:15:50,752
a city law
protecting homosexuals
1152
01:15:50,832 --> 01:15:53,322
against discrimination
in jobs and housing.
1153
01:15:53,402 --> 01:15:55,662
Only two hours
after the polls closed,
1154
01:15:55,732 --> 01:16:00,072
the church organization that started the
repeal action was celebrating victory.
1155
01:16:04,272 --> 01:16:06,142
Hey, Lawrence, it's Cleve.
1156
01:16:06,212 --> 01:16:07,472
Hey, we're losing Wichita.
1157
01:16:07,542 --> 01:16:10,742
So rally tonight sundown
at Market and Castro, okay?
1158
01:16:10,812 --> 01:16:12,142
Okay, bye.
1159
01:16:14,452 --> 01:16:15,452
Hello?
1160
01:16:26,962 --> 01:16:30,862
Jerry. Hey,
we're losing Wichita...
1161
01:16:41,042 --> 01:16:42,532
They're moving.
I don't know where.
1162
01:16:42,612 --> 01:16:45,012
Did Jim call the press? You
get out there with your camera.
1163
01:16:45,082 --> 01:16:48,052
Press is covered. But we
don't have a permit to march.
1164
01:16:49,422 --> 01:16:50,542
Hurry up.
1165
01:16:57,432 --> 01:17:01,862
When I got Coors beer out of the
bars, the union boys gave me this.
1166
01:17:01,932 --> 01:17:03,922
I want you to take it now.
1167
01:17:04,632 --> 01:17:06,192
What am I supposed
to do with this?
1168
01:17:06,272 --> 01:17:07,978
You're an activist now,
you're gonna march them.
1169
01:17:08,002 --> 01:17:10,388
I want you to march them right up
to the front doors of City Hall.
1170
01:17:10,412 --> 01:17:13,002
When things start
to look really bad,
1171
01:17:13,072 --> 01:17:17,242
the city's first gay supervisor
will come out and play peacemaker.
1172
01:17:19,012 --> 01:17:20,282
Do it with me.
1173
01:17:29,522 --> 01:17:30,682
Hello.
1174
01:17:31,862 --> 01:17:34,232
Forty years ago, tonight,
1175
01:17:34,302 --> 01:17:39,702
the gay citizens of Germany found
out they no longer had civil rights.
1176
01:17:42,602 --> 01:17:47,232
Tomorrow morning, the gay citizens
of Wichita will also awaken
1177
01:17:47,312 --> 01:17:51,342
to find that they too
have lost their civil rights!
1178
01:17:51,412 --> 01:17:55,852
You have whistles. You use
them when we have been attacked.
1179
01:17:56,322 --> 01:17:58,012
Tonight we have been attacked.
1180
01:17:58,092 --> 01:18:00,282
Come on, the crowd
is leaving without us!
1181
01:18:00,362 --> 01:18:01,852
Shit!
1182
01:18:27,352 --> 01:18:29,682
Get the press to the marquee.
1183
01:18:29,752 --> 01:18:32,222
Move left! Move left!
1184
01:18:32,292 --> 01:18:34,398
What are you doing? What are
you doing? Where's Harvey?
1185
01:18:34,422 --> 01:18:36,862
We're shutting down traffic,
both directions.
1186
01:18:36,932 --> 01:18:38,122
Cameras are rolling.
1187
01:18:38,192 --> 01:18:40,352
Okay, disconnect the power arm!
1188
01:18:56,682 --> 01:19:03,312
Civil rights or civil
war! Gay rights now!
1189
01:19:14,302 --> 01:19:17,962
Civil rights
or civil war! Gay rights now!
1190
01:19:18,032 --> 01:19:25,162
Civil rights or civil war!
Gay rights now!
1191
01:19:25,242 --> 01:19:26,502
Anita!
1192
01:19:26,572 --> 01:19:30,702
Anita, you're a liar!
We'll set your hair on fire!
1193
01:19:30,782 --> 01:19:32,642
Anita, you're a liar!
1194
01:19:32,712 --> 01:19:39,582
Anita, you're a liar!
We'll set your hair on fire!
1195
01:20:06,012 --> 01:20:08,452
Okay, okay!
1196
01:20:09,852 --> 01:20:13,052
My name is Harvey Milk
and I'm here to recruit you.
1197
01:20:15,162 --> 01:20:18,462
They're calling it
a successful mediation.
1198
01:20:18,532 --> 01:20:22,692
You're a goddamn hero. Fuck,
we came this close to a riot.
1199
01:20:24,832 --> 01:20:26,302
Next time
put down the note cards.
1200
01:20:26,372 --> 01:20:30,332
You got to keep talking into that bullhorn
and tell them what they're feeling.
1201
01:20:30,412 --> 01:20:33,432
Oh, you're just jealous
it wasn't you out there.
1202
01:20:33,512 --> 01:20:35,982
We're losing
Proposition 6 by 60%,
1203
01:20:36,042 --> 01:20:38,012
and you're over there
celebrating a riot.
1204
01:20:38,082 --> 01:20:40,052
What we need is exposure.
1205
01:20:40,122 --> 01:20:41,642
If we're gonna beat this thing,
1206
01:20:41,722 --> 01:20:43,952
we got to get Briggs
to acknowledge it.
1207
01:20:44,022 --> 01:20:47,462
Every paper's calling
Prop 6 the main event now.
1208
01:20:47,522 --> 01:20:51,082
We lose this, we'll have
anti-gay laws in all 50 states,
1209
01:20:51,162 --> 01:20:53,422
and Briggs won't answer our
calls for a public debate.
1210
01:20:53,502 --> 01:20:55,162
He's trying
to ignore us to death.
1211
01:20:55,232 --> 01:20:57,362
We need something populist.
1212
01:20:59,102 --> 01:21:01,592
What's the number one
problem in this city?
1213
01:21:01,672 --> 01:21:04,162
The fucking piss
smell in the tenderloin.
1214
01:21:04,242 --> 01:21:05,402
Close.
1215
01:21:05,472 --> 01:21:06,842
Dog shit.
1216
01:21:07,882 --> 01:21:10,442
If you clean up the dog shit in
this town, you're the next mayor.
1217
01:21:10,512 --> 01:21:12,542
Supervisor Milk
took to the grassy lawn
1218
01:21:12,612 --> 01:21:15,242
at Duboce Park this afternoon
to publicize the new law.
1219
01:21:15,322 --> 01:21:18,292
Dog mess is a hazard and on
top of that, it's disgusting.
1220
01:21:18,352 --> 01:21:22,382
So under the new ordinance, all dog
owners who don't clean up their mess
1221
01:21:22,462 --> 01:21:23,552
will be fined.
1222
01:21:23,632 --> 01:21:26,562
Milk put his foot down to
emphasize that the city intends to enforce,
1223
01:21:26,632 --> 01:21:28,392
and you guessed it.
1224
01:21:28,462 --> 01:21:32,262
In Supervisor Milk's words,
"This really is the bottom line."
1225
01:21:32,432 --> 01:21:33,592
Aye.
1226
01:21:33,672 --> 01:21:36,762
Lau, aye.
Supervisor Hutch?
1227
01:21:36,842 --> 01:21:37,902
Aye.
1228
01:21:37,972 --> 01:21:41,272
Hutch, aye.
Supervisor White?
1229
01:21:42,742 --> 01:21:43,842
No.
1230
01:21:43,912 --> 01:21:47,312
White, no.
Supervisor Silver?
1231
01:21:47,382 --> 01:21:48,712
Aye.
1232
01:21:48,782 --> 01:21:51,952
Silver, aye.
Supervisor Milk?
1233
01:21:53,052 --> 01:21:54,152
Aye.
1234
01:21:54,222 --> 01:21:56,122
Milk, aye.
1235
01:21:56,192 --> 01:22:00,392
Madam President, I have
ten ayes and one no.
1236
01:22:00,462 --> 01:22:03,192
The San Francisco
Gay Rights Ordinance
1237
01:22:03,262 --> 01:22:08,032
sponsored by Supervisors
Milk and Silver is passed.
1238
01:22:15,642 --> 01:22:18,082
I can't get my stories on page
ten, you're getting page one?
1239
01:22:18,152 --> 01:22:20,242
Doggy-doo is a
real issue, George.
1240
01:22:22,152 --> 01:22:25,712
A powder blue pen to sign the
city's first gay rights law.
1241
01:22:28,192 --> 01:22:31,822
I don't do this enough, taking
swift and unambiguous action
1242
01:22:31,892 --> 01:22:34,422
on a substantive
move for civil rights.
1243
01:22:37,102 --> 01:22:38,462
Congratulations.
1244
01:22:39,032 --> 01:22:40,902
George, we need your help with Briggs.
1245
01:22:40,972 --> 01:22:44,372
The gay community will have your
back on every issue from now on.
1246
01:22:44,442 --> 01:22:46,172
We hope you'll have ours.
1247
01:22:54,652 --> 01:22:56,842
What are you working on, Dan?
1248
01:22:58,252 --> 01:22:59,768
If you have something
to discuss, Harvey,
1249
01:22:59,792 --> 01:23:03,022
you can have your aide make
an appointment with my aide.
1250
01:23:03,092 --> 01:23:06,122
Dan, I know you're upset
about the psychiatric center.
1251
01:23:08,102 --> 01:23:10,032
What else do you have coming up?
1252
01:23:10,102 --> 01:23:11,832
Now you need something from me.
1253
01:23:12,972 --> 01:23:16,632
What do you want, me to support the
queers against Prop 6, is that it?
1254
01:23:16,702 --> 01:23:19,202
We prefer the term gay, Dan.
1255
01:23:19,272 --> 01:23:23,232
Just as I'm sure you prefer the
term Irish-American instead of mick.
1256
01:23:23,852 --> 01:23:27,442
Harvey, a society can't
exist without the family.
1257
01:23:27,522 --> 01:23:29,212
We're not against that.
You're not?
1258
01:23:29,282 --> 01:23:31,052
What, can two men reproduce?
1259
01:23:31,122 --> 01:23:32,122
No.
1260
01:23:32,192 --> 01:23:33,952
But God knows we keep trying.
1261
01:23:37,292 --> 01:23:39,122
This isn't you, Dan.
1262
01:23:39,192 --> 01:23:41,862
It's like you're
channeling Anita and Briggs.
1263
01:23:42,562 --> 01:23:45,362
We got to be able to work
together on something.
1264
01:23:47,172 --> 01:23:48,802
Okay, Milk,
1265
01:23:49,742 --> 01:23:52,732
introduce an initiative
for supervisor pay raises.
1266
01:23:52,812 --> 01:23:55,042
Dan, we both have elections
coming up. We can't do that.
1267
01:23:55,112 --> 01:23:57,242
No, you asked for something.
1268
01:23:57,312 --> 01:24:01,582
Introduce pay raises, 'cause I can't
take care of my family on our salaries.
1269
01:24:01,652 --> 01:24:04,452
You don't have that
problem, do you?
1270
01:24:13,832 --> 01:24:16,302
Senator John Briggs
apparently has not flinched
1271
01:24:16,362 --> 01:24:20,462
in the face of statewide
criticism of his anti-gay crusade.
1272
01:24:20,542 --> 01:24:23,992
He says polls show most of the
people are still on his side.
1273
01:24:24,072 --> 01:24:27,702
Especially those concerned with the
preservation of the American family.
1274
01:24:27,782 --> 01:24:32,542
If these people are going to live
a life of such open homosexuality,
1275
01:24:33,182 --> 01:24:37,282
that they want a 21 gun salute
every time somebody walks by them,
1276
01:24:38,592 --> 01:24:43,112
those people are going to be in
danger of being removed from their job.
1277
01:24:44,632 --> 01:24:49,122
ALL/ Happy birthday to you
1278
01:24:49,202 --> 01:24:55,002
Happy birthday, dear Harvey
1279
01:24:55,072 --> 01:25:00,132
Happy birthday to you
1280
01:25:24,832 --> 01:25:26,302
What's wrong, taco?
1281
01:25:26,372 --> 01:25:28,462
It's just that Cleve and Anne,
1282
01:25:28,542 --> 01:25:31,062
they tried to cut me
out of your table, baby.
1283
01:25:31,142 --> 01:25:33,872
I'm so sick of them.
You should fire them.
1284
01:25:35,182 --> 01:25:37,372
I'll take it
under consideration.
1285
01:25:37,452 --> 01:25:39,882
Would you go get us some cake?
1286
01:25:39,952 --> 01:25:41,182
Cake?
Yeah.
1287
01:25:41,252 --> 01:25:42,842
Whatever you want.
1288
01:25:47,892 --> 01:25:50,292
Don't let Cesar Chavez
hear you calling him taco.
1289
01:25:50,362 --> 01:25:54,122
He's getting much better. He's
enrolling in classes on Monday, I hope.
1290
01:25:54,202 --> 01:25:56,292
You know, I remember
when your birthdays were
1291
01:25:56,362 --> 01:25:58,362
a lot less lavish and
a little more intimate.
1292
01:25:58,432 --> 01:25:59,962
Who invited you? Anne?
1293
01:26:00,032 --> 01:26:03,272
No, my boyfriend.
I'm his plus one.
1294
01:26:04,942 --> 01:26:07,572
Well, congratulations. It
was a very hard ticket to get.
1295
01:26:07,642 --> 01:26:11,312
Congratulations to you. Looks like
you're part of the machine now.
1296
01:26:13,112 --> 01:26:15,142
By the way, you can do better.
1297
01:26:15,852 --> 01:26:18,342
When I come home to Jack, I
don't have to talk politics,
1298
01:26:18,422 --> 01:26:21,752
I don't have to talk intelligently.
I don't have to talk at all.
1299
01:26:21,822 --> 01:26:24,020
And besides, where's
an ugly old man like me
1300
01:26:24,032 --> 01:26:26,192
gonna find a handsome
young man like that?
1301
01:26:26,262 --> 01:26:29,462
You're not that old
and you look handsome.
1302
01:26:30,632 --> 01:26:34,732
Happy 48. Looks like you're gonna
make it to 50 after all, Mr. Milk.
1303
01:26:40,342 --> 01:26:42,172
Harvey!
1304
01:26:52,622 --> 01:26:54,682
Harvey, Harvey!
1305
01:26:54,762 --> 01:26:56,662
Is your birthday party over?
1306
01:26:56,722 --> 01:26:58,952
Well, it's just
winding down. Hi.
1307
01:26:59,032 --> 01:27:02,152
Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry I
missed your birthday party.
1308
01:27:02,232 --> 01:27:04,662
No, it's no problem.
It's good to see you, Dan.
1309
01:27:04,732 --> 01:27:06,962
I'm sorry. It's good
to see you too, Harvey.
1310
01:27:08,402 --> 01:27:12,842
Oh, I wanted to ask
you about the dog poop.
1311
01:27:12,912 --> 01:27:14,372
Yeah.
1312
01:27:14,442 --> 01:27:17,242
That's good.
It's a really good one.
1313
01:27:17,312 --> 01:27:18,842
It's a good one.
1314
01:27:18,912 --> 01:27:20,852
Hey, I got you
a little something.
1315
01:27:21,482 --> 01:27:22,682
You didn't have to.
1316
01:27:22,752 --> 01:27:24,222
I knew you were
going to say that.
1317
01:27:24,292 --> 01:27:26,012
Why do people always say that?
1318
01:27:26,092 --> 01:27:29,022
"You didn't have to. ' '
I mean, of course, right?
1319
01:27:29,092 --> 01:27:30,962
But that's what they always say.
1320
01:27:31,032 --> 01:27:33,322
They always say
things like that.
1321
01:27:33,392 --> 01:27:34,992
Always.
1322
01:27:36,002 --> 01:27:37,462
Are you okay, Dan?
1323
01:27:38,072 --> 01:27:39,622
Yeah.
1324
01:27:39,702 --> 01:27:41,222
Are you okay, Harvey?
1325
01:27:42,242 --> 01:27:44,102
Are we okay?
Okay.
1326
01:27:44,172 --> 01:27:46,642
I've learned a lot from
watching you. I doubt that.
1327
01:27:46,712 --> 01:27:50,372
No, I have. I've realized
you just gotta get out there.
1328
01:27:50,452 --> 01:27:53,352
You gotta be noticed, 'cause
that's how it all works.
1329
01:27:53,412 --> 01:27:56,852
But you have an issue.
See, that's your advantage.
1330
01:27:59,292 --> 01:28:00,692
That's an advantage.
1331
01:28:00,762 --> 01:28:03,522
Dan, it's more than an issue.
1332
01:28:04,192 --> 01:28:05,782
What?
I...
1333
01:28:06,862 --> 01:28:11,302
Dan, I have had four
relationships in my life.
1334
01:28:11,372 --> 01:28:14,562
And three of them have tried to
commit suicide. And that's my fault,
1335
01:28:14,642 --> 01:28:18,042
because I kept them hidden and quiet,
because I was closeted and weak.
1336
01:28:18,112 --> 01:28:20,672
You see what I'm saying?
Yes.
1337
01:28:20,742 --> 01:28:22,732
You do?
Mmm-hmm.
1338
01:28:22,812 --> 01:28:27,582
This is not just jobs or issues,
this is our lives we're fighting for.
1339
01:28:27,652 --> 01:28:29,342
Okay?
All right.
1340
01:28:29,422 --> 01:28:31,482
Okay, Dan... I've learned
a lot from you, Harvey.
1341
01:28:31,552 --> 01:28:32,832
I'm getting back
to my party now.
1342
01:28:32,892 --> 01:28:34,862
I'm going to get my
picture in the papers, too.
1343
01:28:34,922 --> 01:28:38,652
Why are you even here? Why did
you just show up from somewhere?
1344
01:28:38,732 --> 01:28:41,462
I've got my own issues.
Okay.
1345
01:28:41,532 --> 01:28:43,592
I've got my own issues.
Thank you.
1346
01:28:43,662 --> 01:28:46,032
"Thank you. ' ' Whatever.
1347
01:28:46,102 --> 01:28:51,732
I don't even know who you are. You just
showed up out of nowhere, Latino man.
1348
01:28:52,912 --> 01:28:55,432
Dan White's got an issue!
1349
01:28:57,952 --> 01:29:01,382
John Briggs said this morning that Dade
County, Oklahoma, and St. Paul, Minnesota
1350
01:29:01,452 --> 01:29:03,212
were only preliminary battles.
1351
01:29:03,282 --> 01:29:08,222
He called his California campaign against
homosexual teachers the main event.
1352
01:29:08,292 --> 01:29:10,922
What it's doing, what
these people are doing is
1353
01:29:10,992 --> 01:29:14,552
changing our morals from our religious
background. And I don't want that.
1354
01:30:01,382 --> 01:30:03,472
This came in the mail today.
1355
01:30:04,882 --> 01:30:08,682
"You get the first bullet the minute
you stand at the microphone. ' '
1356
01:30:08,752 --> 01:30:10,312
Supervisor Harvey Milk.
1357
01:30:10,382 --> 01:30:13,552
Well, publicity's working.
1358
01:30:13,622 --> 01:30:15,562
You don't have to go up there.
1359
01:30:16,722 --> 01:30:19,522
The whole nation is watching.
I have to go.
1360
01:30:34,112 --> 01:30:38,742
My name is Harvey Milk
and I'm here to recruit you!
1361
01:30:40,982 --> 01:30:46,012
I want to recruit you for the
fight to preserve your democracy!
1362
01:30:46,092 --> 01:30:49,752
Brothers and sisters,
you must come out!
1363
01:30:49,822 --> 01:30:51,992
Come out to your parents,
1364
01:30:52,062 --> 01:30:56,362
come out to your friends, if
indeed they are your friends.
1365
01:30:56,432 --> 01:31:00,262
Come out to your neighbors,
come out to your fellow workers.
1366
01:31:00,332 --> 01:31:04,332
Once and for all, let's
break down the myths
1367
01:31:04,412 --> 01:31:08,142
and destroy the lies
and distortions.
1368
01:31:10,612 --> 01:31:14,482
For your sake, for their sake.
1369
01:31:14,552 --> 01:31:19,212
For the sake of all the
youngsters who've been scared
1370
01:31:19,292 --> 01:31:22,262
by the votes from Dade to Eugene.
1371
01:31:26,132 --> 01:31:28,862
On the Statue of Liberty,
it says,
1372
01:31:29,732 --> 01:31:36,142
"Give me your tired, your poor, your
huddled masses yearning to be free."
1373
01:31:38,572 --> 01:31:41,772
In the Declaration of
Independence it is written,
1374
01:31:42,342 --> 01:31:49,722
"All men are created equal and endowed
with certain inalienable rights."
1375
01:31:57,262 --> 01:32:00,192
So, for Mr. Briggs,
1376
01:32:03,432 --> 01:32:04,762
And Mrs. Bryant,
1377
01:32:07,672 --> 01:32:10,432
And all the bigots out there,
1378
01:32:11,972 --> 01:32:14,572
no matter how hard you try,
1379
01:32:14,642 --> 01:32:19,912
you can never erase those words
from the Declaration of Independence!
1380
01:32:19,982 --> 01:32:25,252
No matter how hard you try,
you can never chip those words
1381
01:32:25,322 --> 01:32:28,412
from the base of
the Statue of Liberty!
1382
01:32:28,492 --> 01:32:31,982
That is where America is!
1383
01:32:32,062 --> 01:32:34,292
Love it or leave it!
1384
01:32:44,242 --> 01:32:45,730
Okay, the mayor says
Briggs is on his way
1385
01:32:45,742 --> 01:32:47,388
here and that he could
intercept him for us.
1386
01:32:47,412 --> 01:32:49,218
We could get him face to face.
Go get the press.
1387
01:32:49,242 --> 01:32:50,572
All right.
1388
01:32:52,652 --> 01:32:56,382
Well, I see naked men walking
around, naked women walking around,
1389
01:32:56,452 --> 01:33:00,782
which doesn't bother me as far as
my personal standards of nudity,
1390
01:33:00,862 --> 01:33:05,722
but it's not proper. It wouldn't be allowed
for any other parade in San Francisco,
1391
01:33:05,792 --> 01:33:08,162
and it should not be
allowed for the Gay Parade.
1392
01:33:46,672 --> 01:33:48,732
I have a right to be at
this parade, Mr. Mayor.
1393
01:33:48,802 --> 01:33:50,788
I'm afraid it's not in the
interest of your safety,
1394
01:33:50,812 --> 01:33:53,932
or my public's safety to let
you into these parade grounds.
1395
01:33:55,582 --> 01:33:59,172
I'm Harvey Milk. It's an
honor to meet you, Mr. Briggs.
1396
01:34:01,022 --> 01:34:02,612
Yeah, no, I'm aware.
1397
01:34:02,682 --> 01:34:06,282
You know, it's sad, Mr. Milk, that
you're afraid to fight this out in public.
1398
01:34:06,352 --> 01:34:07,452
Oh, that's not true.
1399
01:34:07,522 --> 01:34:09,338
I'd very much like to have
a public debate with you.
1400
01:34:09,362 --> 01:34:11,592
I'm very interested in the
details of your argument.
1401
01:34:11,662 --> 01:34:14,962
Oh, well, you know,
you know the details.
1402
01:34:15,032 --> 01:34:18,932
I mean, just look at the votes across
this nation. The public is with me.
1403
01:34:19,002 --> 01:34:20,402
They are today.
1404
01:34:20,472 --> 01:34:22,702
Which is why
with my city's mayor
1405
01:34:22,772 --> 01:34:25,172
and the San Francisco
press as my witnesses,
1406
01:34:25,242 --> 01:34:27,802
I'd like to challenge
you to a public debate.
1407
01:34:33,082 --> 01:34:34,672
Oh, I think that's a yes.
1408
01:34:37,152 --> 01:34:41,712
You know, Mr. Milk, we don't allow
people who practice bestiality
1409
01:34:41,792 --> 01:34:44,262
To teach our children,
and... Excuse me,
1410
01:34:44,332 --> 01:34:46,562
and the reason we don't
is because it is illegal.
1411
01:34:46,632 --> 01:34:49,722
It is not illegal to be a
homosexual in California.
1412
01:34:49,802 --> 01:34:51,732
And your law goes even further.
1413
01:34:52,572 --> 01:34:56,232
Any school employee who even
supports a gay person will be fired.
1414
01:34:56,302 --> 01:34:59,102
Well, that's true. But gay people
don't have any children of their own.
1415
01:34:59,172 --> 01:35:01,732
And if they don't recruit our
children, they'd all just die away.
1416
01:35:03,042 --> 01:35:05,688
You know? And that's why they're all
so interested in becoming teachers,
1417
01:35:05,712 --> 01:35:09,672
because they want to encourage
our children to join them.
1418
01:35:11,652 --> 01:35:13,242
And how do you
teach homosexuality?
1419
01:35:13,322 --> 01:35:14,342
It's like French?
1420
01:35:17,292 --> 01:35:19,662
I was born of
heterosexual parents,
1421
01:35:19,732 --> 01:35:21,822
taught by heterosexual teachers
1422
01:35:21,902 --> 01:35:24,522
in a fiercely
heterosexual society.
1423
01:35:24,602 --> 01:35:26,732
So why then am I homosexual?
1424
01:35:26,802 --> 01:35:28,502
And no offense meant,
1425
01:35:28,572 --> 01:35:31,442
but if it were true that
children mimicked their teachers,
1426
01:35:31,512 --> 01:35:33,672
we'd have a hell of a lot
more nuns running around.
1427
01:35:41,622 --> 01:35:46,182
We were really, genuinely
frightened by Proposition 6.
1428
01:35:47,422 --> 01:35:51,622
And with Anita and Briggs gaining
strength, we were very pessimistic.
1429
01:35:52,662 --> 01:35:55,692
We didn't think that there was
any chance that we could beat it.
1430
01:35:55,762 --> 01:35:58,232
But what we did hope for
1431
01:35:58,302 --> 01:36:00,632
is that we could
organize enough,
1432
01:36:01,272 --> 01:36:05,172
so that when we did lose,
all hell would break loose.
1433
01:36:05,242 --> 01:36:08,372
We're still losing 60-30. We got
to take this show on the road.
1434
01:36:08,442 --> 01:36:09,842
Put out a press release.
1435
01:36:09,912 --> 01:36:12,972
Call Briggs' office, tell him he
can pick the audience, the town.
1436
01:36:13,052 --> 01:36:14,982
I'll tell my supporters
to stay away.
1437
01:36:15,052 --> 01:36:18,612
Harvey, his audiences are
intensely devout. You'll get killed.
1438
01:36:19,352 --> 01:36:21,292
Get me Orange County.
1439
01:36:21,862 --> 01:36:25,352
In your statements here and all
these newspapers and tonight,
1440
01:36:25,432 --> 01:36:28,222
you say that child
molestation is not an issue.
1441
01:36:28,302 --> 01:36:29,992
If it's not an issue,
1442
01:36:30,062 --> 01:36:33,562
why do you put out literature
that hammers it home?
1443
01:36:33,632 --> 01:36:37,072
Why do you play on
this myth and fear?
1444
01:36:37,142 --> 01:36:39,572
Same thing with VD, Harvey,
we put out publications...
1445
01:36:39,642 --> 01:36:40,802
This is campaign literature.
1446
01:36:40,872 --> 01:36:44,472
Well, we put out publications
about VD so you can avoid it.
1447
01:36:51,322 --> 01:36:54,952
You yourself had said that there's more
molestation in the heterosexual group,
1448
01:36:55,022 --> 01:36:58,222
So why not get rid of
the heterosexual teachers?
1449
01:36:58,292 --> 01:37:01,962
We are not talking about
homosex... About child molestation.
1450
01:37:02,032 --> 01:37:07,802
Nearly... The fact is, nearly 95
percent of the people are heterosexual,
1451
01:37:07,872 --> 01:37:11,172
so, if we took the heterosexuals
out and the homosexuals out,
1452
01:37:11,242 --> 01:37:12,902
you know what,
we'd have no teachers.
1453
01:37:12,972 --> 01:37:14,248
We'd have no teachers,
no more molestation.
1454
01:37:14,272 --> 01:37:16,502
So you're saying that the
percentage of the population
1455
01:37:16,582 --> 01:37:17,888
is equal to the percentage
of child molestation?
1456
01:37:17,912 --> 01:37:19,882
No, no, no,
I'm not saying that, no.
1457
01:37:19,952 --> 01:37:21,412
That's what you just said.
1458
01:37:21,482 --> 01:37:23,798
No, no, no. I'm not saying that at
all. I am saying that we can't prevent
1459
01:37:23,822 --> 01:37:26,412
child molestation, so
let's just cut our odds down
1460
01:37:26,492 --> 01:37:30,292
by taking out the homosexuals and
keeping in the heterosexual groups.
1461
01:37:33,132 --> 01:37:36,862
Sir, in your drive
for personal power,
1462
01:37:36,932 --> 01:37:39,522
how many careers are you
willing to see destroyed?
1463
01:37:39,602 --> 01:37:44,732
How many lives, in your lust for power,
will you destroy and when will it stop?
1464
01:37:58,492 --> 01:37:59,712
Jack, what is it?
1465
01:37:59,792 --> 01:38:02,052
Nothing. Just
wondering when you'll be home.
1466
01:38:02,122 --> 01:38:05,582
You just had them pull me out of my big
vote on the dog shit ordinance for this?
1467
01:38:05,662 --> 01:38:07,562
What, do you do this on purpose?
1468
01:38:07,632 --> 01:38:09,652
Fuck, Harvey, it's poop, okay?
1469
01:38:09,732 --> 01:38:12,432
I just hope I'm more
important than poop.
1470
01:38:12,502 --> 01:38:16,872
Look, it's... I just... I don't
know what time I'll be home.
1471
01:38:16,942 --> 01:38:18,402
6:00 or 6:15.
1472
01:38:18,472 --> 01:38:19,962
Okay.
Okay?
1473
01:38:20,042 --> 01:38:21,772
I'm all right.
I'll see you then.
1474
01:38:21,842 --> 01:38:23,332
Okay.
6/15, then.
1475
01:38:27,052 --> 01:38:29,112
Dan, how's the baby?
1476
01:38:29,182 --> 01:38:31,582
You didn't bring up
supervisor pay raises?
1477
01:38:31,652 --> 01:38:34,782
In fact, I heard that you
plan to publicly oppose them.
1478
01:38:34,862 --> 01:38:36,868
Well, I heard that you planned
to vote against them, too.
1479
01:38:36,892 --> 01:38:38,292
Were you setting me up?
1480
01:38:38,362 --> 01:38:41,192
It's not a good time for
me, politically speaking.
1481
01:38:41,802 --> 01:38:45,062
Dan, there's a vote on the
Police Desegregation Settlement.
1482
01:38:45,132 --> 01:38:47,432
You give me that and I'll
consider backing pay raises.
1483
01:38:47,502 --> 01:38:49,592
I don't trade votes.
1484
01:38:49,672 --> 01:38:51,162
Unlike you,
the way I was raised,
1485
01:38:51,242 --> 01:38:54,172
we believe in right and
wrong. Moral and immoral.
1486
01:38:54,242 --> 01:38:56,842
Black skin and white
in the police department.
1487
01:38:56,912 --> 01:39:00,612
Dan, even Ronald Reagan
is opposed to Proposition 6.
1488
01:39:00,682 --> 01:39:02,582
You're looking more
and more out of touch.
1489
01:39:02,652 --> 01:39:05,428
Okay, if I come out against Prop 6,
it's only going to be for the invasion
1490
01:39:05,452 --> 01:39:06,982
of state's rights issue,
that's it.
1491
01:39:07,052 --> 01:39:09,292
And the potential witch hunt
against you straight people.
1492
01:39:12,062 --> 01:39:15,622
You can't humiliate me, okay?
1493
01:39:16,302 --> 01:39:19,322
You will not demean me.
1494
01:39:23,872 --> 01:39:27,812
Harvey, we're doing the final
vote. We need to get you back.
1495
01:39:42,362 --> 01:39:43,522
Jack?
1496
01:39:47,192 --> 01:39:48,352
Jack?
1497
01:39:55,772 --> 01:39:56,902
Jack?
1498
01:40:11,492 --> 01:40:12,922
Oh!
1499
01:40:12,992 --> 01:40:15,012
No, Jack. Jack, no!
1500
01:40:15,092 --> 01:40:18,322
No, no, no. Jack, no.
1501
01:40:20,992 --> 01:40:21,992
Jack!
1502
01:40:22,902 --> 01:40:27,032
No, no, no, no!
Oh, no!
1503
01:40:33,242 --> 01:40:34,672
Harvey,
1504
01:40:36,142 --> 01:40:37,542
look at me.
1505
01:40:38,552 --> 01:40:40,412
Hey, look at me.
1506
01:40:41,482 --> 01:40:43,642
You did everything
that you could.
1507
01:40:46,722 --> 01:40:48,382
No, I didn't.
1508
01:40:49,862 --> 01:40:51,762
What more could you have done?
1509
01:40:53,862 --> 01:40:58,922
I could have come back
at 6:00 instead of 6:15.
1510
01:41:01,942 --> 01:41:03,402
Shh.
1511
01:41:05,942 --> 01:41:09,002
Jack was gone. I didn't
have any time to mourn.
1512
01:41:09,082 --> 01:41:10,742
There was no choice.
1513
01:41:11,412 --> 01:41:14,782
I had to keep on...
Keep on fighting.
1514
01:41:16,822 --> 01:41:18,682
Most
California political leaders,
1515
01:41:18,752 --> 01:41:21,812
from Governor Jerry Brown to
former Governor Ronald Reagan,
1516
01:41:21,892 --> 01:41:25,522
say there are already enough laws
on the books to protect children.
1517
01:41:25,592 --> 01:41:27,992
If you allow one,
just one human being
1518
01:41:28,062 --> 01:41:31,362
to be allowed to have his
rights taken away from him,
1519
01:41:31,432 --> 01:41:33,262
as a human being then, pal,
1520
01:41:33,332 --> 01:41:35,718
you don't have any right when
they come to take away your rights!
1521
01:41:35,742 --> 01:41:38,332
You do what you want in
the privacy of your own home.
1522
01:41:38,412 --> 01:41:40,702
But don't tell me I got
to accept it in mine.
1523
01:41:48,652 --> 01:41:50,982
San Bernadino is coming in.
Not good.
1524
01:41:51,052 --> 01:41:52,382
Of course not.
How not good?
1525
01:41:52,452 --> 01:41:54,852
60% for Briggs.
Same in Fresno.
1526
01:41:54,922 --> 01:41:56,912
Oh, dear God, Lotus Blossom.
1527
01:41:56,992 --> 01:42:00,122
Imperial is 69% for so far.
1528
01:42:00,192 --> 01:42:01,632
Put it on the board.
1529
01:42:01,702 --> 01:42:04,932
I love homosexuals,
if you can believe that.
1530
01:42:05,002 --> 01:42:06,692
I love them enough
to tell them the truth.
1531
01:42:06,772 --> 01:42:10,672
I think that if it were passed, it
would be just what some people would need
1532
01:42:10,742 --> 01:42:12,472
to conduct a very
severe witch hunt.
1533
01:42:12,542 --> 01:42:15,942
What I ask, everybody to
vote against Proposition 6.
1534
01:42:21,922 --> 01:42:26,182
The whole world is watching. This is
San Francisco we're losing. You ready?
1535
01:42:26,992 --> 01:42:30,152
I can have 15,000
people here in an hour,
1536
01:42:30,222 --> 01:42:32,592
but there's gonna be
riots if this thing passes.
1537
01:42:32,662 --> 01:42:34,492
There goddamn well better be.
1538
01:42:35,662 --> 01:42:37,252
What are you telling me?
1539
01:42:37,332 --> 01:42:39,772
I can't say this because
I'm a public official,
1540
01:42:39,832 --> 01:42:44,032
but if this thing passes,
fight the hell back.
1541
01:42:44,102 --> 01:42:46,662
It was fundamentalist
Christians who helped Briggs
1542
01:42:46,742 --> 01:42:50,302
gather most of the signatures to
put Proposition 6 on today's ballot.
1543
01:42:50,382 --> 01:42:52,612
The Christian community
had never been involved
1544
01:42:52,682 --> 01:42:54,912
in any political
controversial issue.
1545
01:42:54,982 --> 01:42:57,782
And they're not only involved,
but they're committed.
1546
01:42:57,852 --> 01:42:59,158
They've not only been
working very hard, but
1547
01:42:59,170 --> 01:43:00,428
they're going to come
out and vote today.
1548
01:43:00,452 --> 01:43:03,012
"Thou shalt love thy
neighbor as thyself."
1549
01:43:03,092 --> 01:43:05,722
And I would like to know
how you, Senator Briggs,
1550
01:43:05,792 --> 01:43:10,862
believe that Proposition 6 will help
children learn how to accept people
1551
01:43:10,932 --> 01:43:12,422
who are different
from themselves.
1552
01:43:12,502 --> 01:43:14,692
Harvey, Don Amador from LA.
1553
01:43:16,302 --> 01:43:17,532
Not a good time, Don.
1554
01:43:17,602 --> 01:43:20,332
No, sir, this is Paul.
Don just gave me the phone.
1555
01:43:20,412 --> 01:43:21,532
Paul who?
1556
01:43:21,612 --> 01:43:23,472
You spoke to me on the
phone a year or so ago.
1557
01:43:23,542 --> 01:43:26,742
I'm in a wheelchair.
I'm from Minnesota.
1558
01:43:26,812 --> 01:43:29,212
I thought you were
a goner, Paul.
1559
01:43:29,952 --> 01:43:33,112
When I saw that you
won the supervisor seat,
1560
01:43:33,192 --> 01:43:35,652
I got a friend to
put me on a bus to LA.
1561
01:43:35,722 --> 01:43:37,662
Who do you know in Los Angeles?
1562
01:43:38,892 --> 01:43:40,482
Nobody.
1563
01:43:40,562 --> 01:43:42,152
That's the...
1564
01:43:44,332 --> 01:43:46,092
I just didn't
want to die anymore.
1565
01:43:46,172 --> 01:43:48,402
I met your friend Don down here.
1566
01:43:48,472 --> 01:43:51,232
I turned 18 and I voted
today against Prop 6.
1567
01:43:51,302 --> 01:43:53,622
I don't think I'd be alive
right now if it weren't for you.
1568
01:43:53,672 --> 01:43:55,612
No, you did that all by yourself, Paul.
1569
01:43:55,682 --> 01:43:58,242
Don wanted me to congratulate
you on what he says
1570
01:43:58,312 --> 01:44:01,942
looks like a big win for us
tonight. Congratulations, Mr. Milk.
1571
01:44:07,152 --> 01:44:08,922
Yeah, I know, it's incredible.
1572
01:44:08,992 --> 01:44:12,362
All the precincts have reported
we've won 65% in LA County.
1573
01:44:12,432 --> 01:44:14,092
It's huge, Harvey.
1574
01:44:14,162 --> 01:44:15,992
I got to go, Don.
1575
01:44:16,062 --> 01:44:20,932
We just took LA County by
65%. Put it up! Put it up!
1576
01:44:31,312 --> 01:44:32,512
Okay, okay.
1577
01:44:32,582 --> 01:44:34,412
What, Jim? Jim, what? Okay, okay!
1578
01:44:34,482 --> 01:44:36,782
The polls were way off.
Briggs is going down by 2 to 1.
1579
01:44:36,852 --> 01:44:40,182
The only place it's going to pass in
San Francisco is Dan White's district.
1580
01:44:41,352 --> 01:44:43,752
Somebody, cover up Lady Liberty!
1581
01:44:43,822 --> 01:44:46,592
The cameras are on the way here.
1582
01:45:30,302 --> 01:45:34,502
Tonight, it's become clear
to everyone out there
1583
01:45:34,572 --> 01:45:37,602
that they do know one of us,
and now that they do,
1584
01:45:37,682 --> 01:45:39,702
they can see that
we're not sick.
1585
01:45:40,512 --> 01:45:42,982
They can feel that
we are not wrong.
1586
01:45:43,882 --> 01:45:48,452
And they know that there must
be, that there should be a place
1587
01:45:48,522 --> 01:45:53,262
for us in this great
country, in this world.
1588
01:45:59,602 --> 01:46:04,632
A message of hope has been
sent to all those young people,
1589
01:46:04,702 --> 01:46:08,332
to all of those who've been
afraid by this wave of hate,
1590
01:46:08,412 --> 01:46:12,572
to all of those who have lost
their homes, lost their hometowns.
1591
01:46:12,652 --> 01:46:18,382
Tonight, we are clear that
there is a place for us!
1592
01:46:18,452 --> 01:46:21,752
My brothers and sisters,
we can come home again!
1593
01:46:46,182 --> 01:46:48,242
Oh, good morning, Dan.
1594
01:46:48,322 --> 01:46:51,442
Morning, Harvey,
I just resigned.
1595
01:46:52,192 --> 01:46:55,852
Congratulations. I'm sure you'll
be the next President of the Board.
1596
01:46:59,292 --> 01:47:02,592
Hey, Dan.
Just got word.
1597
01:47:02,662 --> 01:47:04,962
Can we talk to you for a minute?
1598
01:47:05,532 --> 01:47:06,792
Yeah, sure.
1599
01:47:06,872 --> 01:47:09,272
The association meeting room.
1600
01:47:23,822 --> 01:47:26,952
Well, now it starts all over
again, because this morning,
1601
01:47:27,022 --> 01:47:32,222
former Supervisor Dan White says he wants
to be called supervisor one more time.
1602
01:47:32,292 --> 01:47:36,752
He gets dragged into this closed
door meeting at Police Association.
1603
01:47:36,832 --> 01:47:38,352
Suddenly he wants his job back.
1604
01:47:38,432 --> 01:47:40,078
I mean, who knows what they
might have said to him in there.
1605
01:47:40,102 --> 01:47:42,032
Or what they may
have promised him.
1606
01:47:42,102 --> 01:47:43,648
Or worse yet, if they
had threatened him.
1607
01:47:43,672 --> 01:47:46,162
A man has the right to change
his mind. Give me some peace.
1608
01:47:46,242 --> 01:47:49,772
Dan White has been the vote on the
board that has stood in our way.
1609
01:47:49,842 --> 01:47:51,612
The vote.
I get it, Harvey.
1610
01:47:51,682 --> 01:47:53,542
I've been lobbied all week.
Enough.
1611
01:47:54,812 --> 01:47:58,012
Let me remind you of something,
you're up for re-election.
1612
01:47:58,082 --> 01:48:01,352
If you reappoint Dan White, you will
lose the gay vote. They listen to me.
1613
01:48:01,422 --> 01:48:03,582
You will not be
elected dog catcher.
1614
01:48:06,532 --> 01:48:08,862
I'll make my decision on Monday.
1615
01:48:09,702 --> 01:48:11,992
You know who you
sounded like just now?
1616
01:48:12,072 --> 01:48:15,002
Boss Tweed or Mayor Daly.
1617
01:48:17,172 --> 01:48:18,762
I like that.
1618
01:48:21,472 --> 01:48:24,032
A homosexual with power.
1619
01:48:25,412 --> 01:48:27,212
That's scary.
1620
01:49:36,352 --> 01:49:38,012
Hello.
1621
01:49:38,082 --> 01:49:39,812
Yes, hold on, please.
1622
01:49:41,862 --> 01:49:43,322
Thank you.
1623
01:49:44,392 --> 01:49:45,792
Yes, this is Dan White.
1624
01:49:45,862 --> 01:49:48,422
Hi, Mr. White, this is
Barbara Taylor from KCBS.
1625
01:49:48,502 --> 01:49:49,592
Mmm-hmm.
1626
01:49:49,662 --> 01:49:51,562
I'm interested in your reaction.
1627
01:49:51,632 --> 01:49:54,362
I've received information
from the mayor's office
1628
01:49:54,432 --> 01:49:57,532
that you're not
getting your job back.
1629
01:49:59,542 --> 01:50:02,442
I'm sorry, I don't know
anything about that.
1630
01:50:20,162 --> 01:50:21,392
Hello?
1631
01:50:21,462 --> 01:50:23,092
Did I wake you?
1632
01:50:25,062 --> 01:50:27,402
Harvey?
Are you all right?
1633
01:50:28,072 --> 01:50:32,332
I went to the opera tonight.
Guess who I went with.
1634
01:50:33,412 --> 01:50:34,502
Who?
1635
01:50:34,572 --> 01:50:37,102
Bidu Sayao herself.
1636
01:50:37,182 --> 01:50:40,582
She was my first Puccini.
The crowd went wild.
1637
01:50:40,652 --> 01:50:44,952
I felt like I was young
again, being at my first opera.
1638
01:50:57,332 --> 01:51:00,202
Maybe you should tell me the
next time you go to the opera.
1639
01:51:01,302 --> 01:51:02,702
Really?
1640
01:51:02,772 --> 01:51:05,072
Yeah. I'd go with you.
1641
01:51:08,142 --> 01:51:09,672
I'd like that.
1642
01:51:25,792 --> 01:51:28,022
Look outside,
the sun's coming up.
1643
01:51:28,092 --> 01:51:30,092
Okay, hang on.
1644
01:51:54,892 --> 01:51:56,452
Hey, wait a minute.
1645
01:51:56,522 --> 01:51:58,652
My aide was supposed to come down here
1646
01:51:58,732 --> 01:52:00,808
and let me in the side door,
but she never showed up.
1647
01:52:00,832 --> 01:52:03,302
And you are? I'm Dan
White, City Supervisor.
1648
01:52:11,742 --> 01:52:12,862
Harvey,
1649
01:52:14,812 --> 01:52:17,282
I want you to know
that I am proud of you.
1650
01:52:59,022 --> 01:53:00,922
I don't wanna miss this.
1651
01:53:02,062 --> 01:53:03,682
Miss what?
1652
01:53:06,392 --> 01:53:07,452
This.
1653
01:53:12,032 --> 01:53:15,332
Is he here? Can I see
the mayor for a moment?
1654
01:53:16,542 --> 01:53:19,062
Just a minute,
I'll see if he's available.
1655
01:53:21,472 --> 01:53:23,842
Sir, Dan White
is here to see you.
1656
01:53:28,182 --> 01:53:30,212
So, who are they gonna replace Dan with?
1657
01:53:30,282 --> 01:53:33,552
That goddamn lefty
liberal, Don Horanzy?
1658
01:53:33,622 --> 01:53:35,452
That'll really
shake up the board.
1659
01:53:35,522 --> 01:53:38,252
All I know is that we're
getting a new supervisor today.
1660
01:53:38,322 --> 01:53:41,492
If Dan shows up, just avoid him.
1661
01:53:41,562 --> 01:53:44,032
We don't need a scene
today, do we, Harvey?
1662
01:53:44,632 --> 01:53:46,122
God forbid, Dianne.
1663
01:53:48,602 --> 01:53:51,402
Mr. White,
the mayor will see you now.
1664
01:53:54,642 --> 01:53:55,972
Thanks.
You're welcome.
1665
01:53:56,042 --> 01:53:58,372
Dan, come on in.
1666
01:54:00,782 --> 01:54:02,658
It's not something that
I wanna calm down about.
1667
01:54:02,682 --> 01:54:04,452
You can't take
this away from me.
1668
01:54:04,522 --> 01:54:07,422
Dan, look, you made a decision.
1669
01:54:07,492 --> 01:54:09,482
You know, you made the decision.
1670
01:54:11,422 --> 01:54:15,022
The issue is what's fair to the
people of your district, Dan.
1671
01:54:15,092 --> 01:54:19,222
Now, look, take some time
off. Spend it with your family.
1672
01:55:05,582 --> 01:55:09,812
Tell President Carter we're coming
after him next, this time next year.
1673
01:55:09,882 --> 01:55:10,972
Hi, Dianne.
1674
01:55:11,052 --> 01:55:13,252
We're marching
to Washington D.C.
1675
01:55:16,192 --> 01:55:18,452
Hey, can I see you in
my office for a minute?
1676
01:55:20,832 --> 01:55:24,292
Sure. I'll be back.
Yeah.
1677
01:55:42,782 --> 01:55:44,012
No.
1678
01:56:25,862 --> 01:56:28,022
Well, you know what I think?
1679
01:56:28,092 --> 01:56:30,822
I think you need
to find a new scene.
1680
01:56:30,902 --> 01:56:32,492
And some new friends.
1681
01:56:35,132 --> 01:56:36,972
I need a change.
1682
01:56:40,342 --> 01:56:42,432
You're 40 now.
Oh.
1683
01:56:47,312 --> 01:56:52,412
Forty years old and I haven't
done a thing I'm proud of.
1684
01:56:54,292 --> 01:56:58,882
Keep eating all that cake, you're gonna
be a fat-ass by the time you're 50.
1685
01:56:58,962 --> 01:57:01,932
No, I'll never make it to 50.
1686
01:57:47,442 --> 01:57:49,032
Where is everyone?
1687
01:57:50,042 --> 01:57:51,772
Doesn't anyone give a damn?
1688
01:57:52,712 --> 01:57:55,552
Cleve's getting some people
together in the Castro.
1689
01:58:02,992 --> 01:58:07,552
Last week I got a phone call
from Altoona, Pennsylvania.
1690
01:58:08,662 --> 01:58:14,502
The voice was very young,
and the person said, "Thanks. ' '
1691
01:58:15,842 --> 01:58:20,572
You've got to elect gay people
so that the young child
1692
01:58:21,172 --> 01:58:24,302
and the thousands upon
thousands just like him
1693
01:58:25,212 --> 01:58:27,872
will have hope
for a better life.
1694
01:58:29,022 --> 01:58:31,422
Hope for a better tomorrow.
1695
01:58:48,902 --> 01:58:50,372
I ask this,
1696
01:58:51,902 --> 01:58:54,842
that if there be
an assassination,
1697
01:58:56,482 --> 01:59:02,682
I would want five, ten,
a hundred, a thousand to rise.
1698
01:59:07,422 --> 01:59:11,752
If a bullet should enter my brain,
let it destroy every closet door.
1699
01:59:13,292 --> 01:59:20,492
I ask for the movement to continue
because it's not about personal gain,
1700
01:59:20,572 --> 01:59:23,732
and it's not about ego
and it's not about power.
1701
01:59:24,502 --> 01:59:27,032
It's about the "us's" out there.
1702
01:59:28,412 --> 01:59:32,172
Not just the gays but
the blacks and the Asians
1703
01:59:32,242 --> 01:59:34,142
and the seniors
and the disabled.
1704
01:59:34,212 --> 01:59:35,442
The "us's."
1705
01:59:39,122 --> 01:59:42,492
Without hope,
the "us's" give up.
1706
01:59:44,692 --> 01:59:48,792
And I know you can't
live on hope alone.
1707
01:59:48,862 --> 01:59:53,562
But without hope,
life is not worth living.
1708
01:59:55,942 --> 01:59:57,332
So you,
1709
01:59:58,302 --> 01:59:59,862
and you,
1710
02:00:00,372 --> 02:00:01,742
and you,
1711
02:00:02,112 --> 02:00:04,132
you got to give them hope.
1712
02:00:05,982 --> 02:00:08,472
You got to give them hope.
1712
02:00:09,305 --> 02:01:09,864
