I somehow missed sfericsf's post about boycotting certain cinemas, I thought you meant boycott the movie, my apologies.
As for the cinemas to boycott, I'm not familiar with any of them, so I assume they are only in the US, if we had some here I would avoid them like the plague.

Also, I take back what I said about JAMES FRANCO. The little darlin' is back in my good books and he anything BUT just another pretty face:

I didn't realise that he will be playing Alan Ginsberg in HOWL next year.  Can't wait to see that!

And the more I think about that prosthetic penis business the more ridiculous I think it seems. 
Thankfully, European actors aren't so hung-up about nudity.

See the post above.  Do not see MILK (or any other movie for that matter) at any 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 do be the first in line at any other theatre of your choice! 

Sorry sfericsf, like I said to Artiste, I missed your post about the boycott.  But why just avoid the movie Milk?   I wouldn't give any of those theatres my money.

Really?  Which cinemas?

[Artiste]

     Cinemark, Century...              are they not in Canada ?

Oilgun, I remember going to Century, and maybe that still is in Canada ?

Thanks for the articles and videos, John.  I just saw a screening of "Milk," and they help to fill in some blanks as well as remind me of some of the scenes in the film.

I wrote an account of it here:  http://bettermost.net/forum/index.php/topic,5286.msg442985.html#msg442985

Dang.  Too bad that cut off when it did.    Thanks for posting, John.

I strongly recommend everyone see The Times of Harvey Milk, which won the Oscar for best documentary in 1985. 

With archival footage and interviews with people that knew and worked with Milk, it's a stirring and moving film.  I think it would well complement the new film Milk.
