I think that you are right !

In Heath's case, he did not want to do it, in the first place. I can't remember exactly how he said it ! Maybe you do ? He did it, because of his then girlfriend who suggested or advised him to do so - I think it is said or he said ?? Or was that just a way to cope blaming it on her ?

No MILK for Cinemark or Century Theatres!


The CEO of Cinemark, Alan Stock,
donated $9999 to the Yes on 8 Campaign, but
will now profit from showing MILK in his theaters.
 
 
Here's a great site about the campaign to get the word out.  Do not see MILK (or any other movie for that matter) at a Cinemark, Century, CineArts, or Tinseltown theatre:

Here is a complete list of all Cinemark, Century, CineArts, and Tinseltown theatres to avoid in the future:  http://www.cinemark.com/tspage.asp
 
 
Please pass this on...
 
Thank you,
 
Eric

Here is an interview with James Franco about MILK and him acting in it and how he felt "uncomfortable and not that fun" doing the gay scenes.  Why do straight men go out of their way to say it!


I know what you mean, Eric. 

Contrast Franco's comments (..."his whiskers kept getting in my mouth...") with Heath's (..."I wasn't kissing the butt of a mule, it was a human being with a soul"...).

Franco may be cute, but I'm not impressed.

I guess he really is just another pretty face.  Hopefully Sean Penn won't let me down.

I'm glad to know ahead of time about the prosthetic penis though  (That's what I need for when I go to the gym, man!)

I am really looking forward to seeing this. These days I wait for movies to be released on DVD. This I'll make a point of seeing in the theater. It's great the G.V.S. got to make film centered on a gay man and his friends as opposed to a film that just has a secondary gay characters. He was in the running to direct BBM and so now he's directed his own gay themed film. I'm not a fan of Sean Penn, but from all reports he's does an exceptional job as Harvey.
