1
00:02:33,533 --> 00:02:39,301
This is Harvey Milk speaking
on Friday, November 18th.
2
00:02:40,673 --> 00:02:45,133
This is only to be played in the
event of my death by assassination.
3
00:02:48,881 --> 00:02:51,315
During one of
my early campaigns,
4
00:02:51,384 --> 00:02:57,289
I began to open speeches with a line
and it became kind of a signature.
5
00:02:57,957 --> 00:03:01,120
My name is Harvey Milk
and I want to recruit you.
6
00:03:02,895 --> 00:03:07,423
If I was speaking to a
slightly hostile audience
7
00:03:07,500 --> 00:03:11,561
or a mostly straight one, I might
break the tension with a joke.
8
00:03:12,071 --> 00:03:14,471
I know. I know I'm
not what you expected,
9
00:03:14,540 --> 00:03:16,132
but I left my
high heels at home.
10
00:03:19,645 --> 00:03:25,049
I fully realize that a person
who stands for what I stand for,
11
00:03:25,117 --> 00:03:26,584
an activist,
a gay activist,
12
00:03:27,920 --> 00:03:32,448
makes himself the target
for someone who is insecure,
13
00:03:32,525 --> 00:03:35,653
terrified, afraid
and disturbed themselves.
14
00:03:35,728 --> 00:03:40,256
It's a very real possibility you
see, because in San Francisco,
15
00:03:40,333 --> 00:03:44,133
we have broken a dam of major
prejudice in this country.
16
00:03:44,203 --> 00:03:47,229
...room 200.
I'm in the mayor's office.
17
00:03:47,306 --> 00:03:51,106
We are trying
to ascertain what is happening.
18
00:03:51,911 --> 00:03:54,038
As President of the
Board of Supervisors,
19
00:03:54,113 --> 00:03:56,547
it's my duty to
make this announcement.
20
00:03:57,483 --> 00:04:01,317
Both Mayor Moscone and
Supervisor Harvey Milk
21
00:04:02,355 --> 00:04:04,585
have been shot and killed.
22
00:04:08,661 --> 00:04:12,688
I wish I had time to explain
all the things that I did.
23
00:04:12,765 --> 00:04:15,700
Almost everything was done
with an eye on the gay movement.
24
00:04:25,244 --> 00:04:26,734
Hey. Hey.
25
00:04:28,714 --> 00:04:30,079
I'm Harvey.
26
00:04:30,516 --> 00:04:31,744
Okay, Harvey.
27
00:04:33,486 --> 00:04:34,851
Today's my birthday.
28
00:04:35,821 --> 00:04:39,518
No, hey, actually it is
my birthday. At midnight.
29
00:04:39,592 --> 00:04:40,650
Really?
30
00:04:41,494 --> 00:04:44,190
And, believe it or not,
I don't have any plans.
31
00:04:45,665 --> 00:04:48,133
Some people took
me out after work.
32
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:53,797
Hmm. And that would be at,
let me guess, Ma Bell or AT&T.
33
00:04:54,674 --> 00:04:56,539
The Great American
Insurance Company.
34
00:04:56,609 --> 00:04:57,701
Oh.
35
00:04:57,777 --> 00:05:00,803
I'm part of that corporate
establishment that,
36
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:03,815
let me guess, you think is the
cause of all the evil in the world,
37
00:05:03,883 --> 00:05:05,441
from Vietnam
to diaper rash.
38
00:05:05,518 --> 00:05:07,076
You left out bad breath.
39
00:05:10,356 --> 00:05:11,584
Just kidding.
40
00:05:14,260 --> 00:05:17,787
You're not gonna let me spend my
birthday all by myself, are you?
41
00:05:20,466 --> 00:05:21,865
Listen, Harvey,
42
00:05:23,169 --> 00:05:25,160
you're pretty cute,
43
00:05:25,237 --> 00:05:27,205
but I don't
date guys over 40.
44
00:05:29,008 --> 00:05:31,340
Well, then, this
is my lucky night.
45
00:05:31,811 --> 00:05:33,176
Why is that?
46
00:05:33,245 --> 00:05:34,940
I'm still 39.
47
00:05:35,781 --> 00:05:37,476
It's only 11:15.
48
00:05:48,361 --> 00:05:49,658
Come on.
49
00:05:53,899 --> 00:05:55,662
What's your name?
50
00:05:55,735 --> 00:05:57,635
I'm Scott.
51
00:05:57,703 --> 00:06:00,638
Very nice to meet you,
Mr. Harvey, insurance man.
52
00:06:39,278 --> 00:06:41,439
Where are you from?
53
00:06:41,514 --> 00:06:43,345
Jackson, Mississippi.
54
00:06:45,418 --> 00:06:48,285
This isn't Jackson. You can't
respond to just every strange man
55
00:06:48,354 --> 00:06:49,981
that picks you up
on a subway platform.
56
00:06:50,055 --> 00:06:51,079
It's too dangerous.
57
00:06:51,157 --> 00:06:52,488
Hmm, now you tell me.
58
00:06:53,692 --> 00:06:55,421
The New York Police
are the toughest.
59
00:06:55,494 --> 00:06:57,223
They're arrogant
and they're everywhere.
60
00:06:57,296 --> 00:06:58,763
I'll show you all
the cruising spots,
61
00:06:58,831 --> 00:07:00,765
but you have to be very
careful, little Scotty-san.
62
00:07:00,833 --> 00:07:03,199
Are you on
some uppers or something?
63
00:07:03,803 --> 00:07:06,601
No. This is
just plain me.
64
00:07:07,840 --> 00:07:09,569
And you're scared
of the cops?
65
00:07:10,376 --> 00:07:12,901
I'm just discreet.
I know a lot of people.
66
00:07:12,978 --> 00:07:14,878
If they see me,
I could lose my job.
67
00:07:15,681 --> 00:07:17,410
Oh, you're one of those.
68
00:07:19,351 --> 00:07:23,447
Well, I think you need to find
a new scene. Some new friends.
69
00:07:26,459 --> 00:07:28,620
I need a change.
I know.
70
00:07:29,962 --> 00:07:31,589
Yeah, you're 40 now.
71
00:07:31,664 --> 00:07:32,653
Oh.
72
00:07:35,100 --> 00:07:40,265
Forty years old and I haven't
done a thing I'm proud of.
73
00:07:40,339 --> 00:07:44,332
You keep eating this cake and you're
going to be fat by the time you're 50.
74
00:07:44,410 --> 00:07:46,344
That's if I ever
get to 50. Oh!
75
00:07:47,012 --> 00:07:49,173
Happy birthday, old man.
76
00:07:53,652 --> 00:07:55,711
Why don't we
run away together?
77
00:07:55,788 --> 00:07:57,050
Where to?
78
00:08:10,936 --> 00:08:12,733
HARVEY/ In the past, and still now,
79
00:08:12,805 --> 00:08:16,138
San Francisco was the place
where everyone wanted to go.
80
00:08:16,742 --> 00:08:20,644
To drop out,
to fall in love.
81
00:08:21,814 --> 00:08:27,650
But by 1972, the Haight was boarded
up. Drug filled, crime filled.
82
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,245
The new place
for us refugees
83
00:08:30,322 --> 00:08:33,621
was a little Irish Catholic
neighborhood in the Eureka Valley,
84
00:08:34,693 --> 00:08:36,285
six blocks square,
85
00:08:37,530 --> 00:08:39,225
the Castro.
86
00:09:24,977 --> 00:09:27,605
I cashed my last unemployment
check yesterday.
87
00:09:28,347 --> 00:09:31,180
Well, I hope you did
something useful with it.
88
00:09:32,885 --> 00:09:34,580
I bought
an ounce of pot.
89
00:09:34,653 --> 00:09:36,382
Don't
move for a second.
90
00:09:39,758 --> 00:09:41,988
I suppose
I can wait tables.
91
00:09:42,995 --> 00:09:44,519
I don't want you to go anywhere.
92
00:09:44,597 --> 00:09:47,031
I want you
right here with me.
93
00:09:48,033 --> 00:09:50,228
I was thinking
about a little shop.
94
00:09:50,302 --> 00:09:51,701
What kind of shop?
95
00:09:51,770 --> 00:09:53,362
Just a little shop
with a little overhead.
96
00:09:53,439 --> 00:09:54,463
Not too much work.
97
00:09:54,540 --> 00:09:57,202
Just like Morris and Minnie
Milk of Woodmere, New York.
98
00:09:57,876 --> 00:10:00,242
Did you see the little
place downstairs for rent?
99
00:10:00,312 --> 00:10:01,711
Yeah.
100
00:10:02,514 --> 00:10:04,072
What do you
think about that?
101
00:10:04,850 --> 00:10:06,249
I think it sounds great.
102
00:10:06,318 --> 00:10:08,548
A little bit
up on the left.
103
00:10:13,926 --> 00:10:16,156
Oh, it looks great.
Looks great.
104
00:10:16,228 --> 00:10:17,559
Yeah.
105
00:10:18,163 --> 00:10:19,858
You're the
new renters?
106
00:10:20,633 --> 00:10:22,624
Well, hello.
Harvey Milk.
107
00:10:23,769 --> 00:10:25,134
McConnely.
Welcome to Castro Camera.
108
00:10:25,204 --> 00:10:26,466
Scott.
109
00:10:27,439 --> 00:10:29,407
Yeah. Like,
you know, I would like
110
00:10:29,475 --> 00:10:33,377
to join the, what's it called, The
Eureka Valley Merchants Association.
111
00:10:33,445 --> 00:10:34,639
I'm not an interloper.
112
00:10:34,713 --> 00:10:37,477
A Jew, perhaps, but I
hope you'll forgive that.
113
00:10:37,549 --> 00:10:39,039
If you open
those doors,
114
00:10:39,118 --> 00:10:42,087
the Merchants Association will
have the police pull your license.
115
00:10:42,154 --> 00:10:43,621
Under what law?
116
00:10:43,689 --> 00:10:45,384
Excuse me?
117
00:10:45,457 --> 00:10:48,517
There's man's law and there's
God's law in this neighborhood
118
00:10:48,594 --> 00:10:49,720
and in this city.
119
00:10:49,795 --> 00:10:51,319
You know,
we pay taxes.
120
00:10:51,397 --> 00:10:54,764
The San Francisco police force
is happy to enforce either.
121
00:10:54,833 --> 00:10:55,891
Have a good day.
122
00:10:55,968 --> 00:10:59,131
Yeah, thank you for the warm
welcome to the neighborhood!
123
00:11:01,140 --> 00:11:03,005
Schmuck!
124
00:11:03,842 --> 00:11:04,934
Well.
125
00:11:06,512 --> 00:11:07,672
Hey.
126
00:11:11,250 --> 00:11:13,650
Okay.
Customers, come on in.
127
00:11:36,075 --> 00:11:38,839
We'll form our
own business association.
128
00:11:38,911 --> 00:11:41,106
We'll start with
the gay businesses.
129
00:11:41,180 --> 00:11:45,082
We'll get the addresses of every customer
that comes in the store for a roll of film
130
00:11:45,150 --> 00:11:48,517
and we'll ask them what they
want, what they need changed.
131
00:11:48,587 --> 00:11:51,750
We'll get some money rolling in
here. Revitalize the neighborhood.
132
00:11:51,824 --> 00:11:53,223
Can I come in now?
133
00:11:54,393 --> 00:11:55,985
One more minute.
134
00:11:58,297 --> 00:12:00,094
And I can go to
the neighborhood banks.
135
00:12:00,165 --> 00:12:02,065
They must have
some gay customers.
136
00:12:02,134 --> 00:12:05,797
Look, Harvey, what's with all
this political activist crap?
137
00:12:05,871 --> 00:12:08,431
I mean, I thought you
were a goddamn Republican.
138
00:12:08,507 --> 00:12:10,441
I'm a businessman, Scott.
139
00:12:10,509 --> 00:12:13,808
And businesses should be
good to their customers.
140
00:12:14,379 --> 00:12:16,677
Even if their
customers are gay.
141
00:12:16,749 --> 00:12:18,740
For God's sake,
it's San Francisco!
142
00:12:18,817 --> 00:12:21,650
Yeah. Well, it's just like
any other city in the country.
143
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,244
They hate us.
Real surprise.
144
00:12:23,322 --> 00:12:26,155
We should have at least one
block in one city, right?
145
00:12:26,225 --> 00:12:29,956
We start there and then we'll
take over the neighborhood.
146
00:12:30,028 --> 00:12:31,359
Maybe.
147
00:12:32,664 --> 00:12:33,892
I'm coming in.
148
00:12:33,966 --> 00:12:36,161
Okay,
you can come in now.
149
00:12:39,104 --> 00:12:41,504
Finally.
This better be good.
150
00:12:42,241 --> 00:12:43,572
Oh!
151
00:12:44,409 --> 00:12:45,808
Happy birthday!
152
00:12:48,814 --> 00:12:52,045
I had to do it! I had
to do it! I had to do it!
153
00:12:52,117 --> 00:12:54,244
Sanctuary, sanctuary!
Harvey Milk!
154
00:12:54,319 --> 00:12:55,308
Sanctuary!
155
00:12:55,854 --> 00:12:58,084
And Castro became
destination number one.
156
00:12:59,825 --> 00:13:03,625
Hundreds of gay men were coming
every week from all over the world.
157
00:13:04,329 --> 00:13:06,923
It was our area.
Our own neighborhood.
158
00:13:17,409 --> 00:13:20,640
The police hated us. And
we hated them right back.
159
00:13:21,313 --> 00:13:24,009
They would come in and attack
us and beat us just for fun.
160
00:13:24,082 --> 00:13:25,481
But that wouldn't stop us.
161
00:13:25,551 --> 00:13:29,715
I made a list of shops that were
friendly to us and shops that weren't.
162
00:13:29,788 --> 00:13:32,018
Those shops that
worked with us thrived.
163
00:13:32,090 --> 00:13:34,388
Those that didn't,
went out of business.
164
00:13:34,459 --> 00:13:35,653
Closed their doors.
165
00:13:39,331 --> 00:13:41,356
Excuse me,
ladies and gentlemen.
166
00:13:41,433 --> 00:13:44,664
Mr. McConnely, I just came by
to see how business was doing.
167
00:13:44,736 --> 00:13:46,067
Just fine, Harvey.
168
00:13:46,138 --> 00:13:48,629
You don't mind having all
these homosexuals in here?
169
00:13:49,842 --> 00:13:52,276
Kidding, everybody. He
loves our kind. Spend away.
170
00:13:52,344 --> 00:13:53,675
Tell your wife I said hello.
171
00:13:55,247 --> 00:13:58,648
But people started
hanging around our store.
172
00:13:58,717 --> 00:14:01,652
Not customers.
Activists, kids,
173
00:14:02,521 --> 00:14:05,456
young people who were looking
for a home away from home.
174
00:14:26,778 --> 00:14:28,006
There was Danny Nicoletta,
175
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:31,675
cute art student that I picked up
at Toad Hall, who worked in the shop.
176
00:14:31,750 --> 00:14:34,514
Harvey, come on.
Opera is so pass�.
177
00:14:34,586 --> 00:14:35,985
You're not understanding
the spectacle of it,
178
00:14:36,054 --> 00:14:37,487
the bigger
than life emotions.
179
00:14:37,556 --> 00:14:39,456
The bigger
than life emotions?
180
00:14:44,663 --> 00:14:46,688
Jim Rivaldo, a great mind.
181
00:14:46,765 --> 00:14:51,930
Harvard graduate, which nobody cared
about in those days in the Castro.
182
00:14:52,004 --> 00:14:53,266
Including himself.
183
00:14:53,338 --> 00:14:56,205
And somewhere along the
line, Jim picked up a prot�g�,
184
00:14:56,275 --> 00:14:59,073
a cute political kid from
Wisconsin, Dick Pabich.
185
00:14:59,144 --> 00:15:01,544
And of course,
there was Dennis Peron,
186
00:15:01,613 --> 00:15:05,208
who ran a very successful
business with the young kids.
187
00:15:05,284 --> 00:15:08,515
And it wasn't only the gays
who noticed what was happening.
188
00:15:09,021 --> 00:15:10,545
Also the straight people.
189
00:15:11,556 --> 00:15:13,786
There were some
very unexpected ones.
190
00:15:14,860 --> 00:15:17,988
Teamster leader Allan Baird
walked right into my shop
191
00:15:18,063 --> 00:15:22,090
and asked me if I could get my
people to help boycott Coors beer.
192
00:15:22,167 --> 00:15:24,761
And the Coors beer boycott
had not been too successful.
193
00:15:24,836 --> 00:15:29,034
But I got my people to get all the
Coors beer out of all the gay bars,
194
00:15:29,107 --> 00:15:32,599
and immediately Coors fell
from number one and they caved.
195
00:15:33,445 --> 00:15:36,710
A week later, the Teamsters
union, for the very first time,
196
00:15:36,782 --> 00:15:38,613
hired openly gay drivers.
197
00:15:38,684 --> 00:15:40,845
We weren't just a bunch
of pansies anymore.
198
00:15:40,919 --> 00:15:43,251
We had had our
first taste of power.
199
00:15:43,322 --> 00:15:46,780
And it was about that time
that someone first called me
200
00:15:46,858 --> 00:15:51,693
the Mayor of Castro Street, or I
may have invented the term myself.
201
00:15:55,801 --> 00:15:57,428
The fucking cops, man.
202
00:15:57,502 --> 00:15:58,935
Cops are pulling
people out of Toad Hall.
203
00:15:59,004 --> 00:15:59,936
Why?
What did they do?
204
00:16:00,005 --> 00:16:01,734
They're sweeping the streets.
It's happening right now.
205
00:16:01,807 --> 00:16:03,172
Come on.
Come on.
206
00:16:28,433 --> 00:16:31,027
Through the door there,
the front door there,
207
00:16:31,103 --> 00:16:35,767
was just an explosion
of police charging in here.
208
00:16:35,841 --> 00:16:39,038
I ran into the bathroom to
hide with some other people.
209
00:16:39,878 --> 00:16:45,282
All we could hear was screaming
and crunching and smashing.
210
00:16:45,350 --> 00:16:50,253
It was frankly the most terrifying
experience I've had in my life.
211
00:16:58,196 --> 00:16:59,720
If we had
someone in government
212
00:16:59,798 --> 00:17:02,733
who saw things the
way that we see them,
213
00:17:02,801 --> 00:17:07,363
like the black community has black
leaders that look out for their interests.
214
00:17:15,147 --> 00:17:17,240
Politics is theater.
215
00:17:17,315 --> 00:17:18,509
It doesn't matter
so much about winning.
216
00:17:18,583 --> 00:17:19,607
You make a statement.
217
00:17:19,684 --> 00:17:23,313
You say, "I'm here. ' '
You get their attention.
218
00:17:25,123 --> 00:17:26,647
I mean, it'll be fun.
219
00:17:31,630 --> 00:17:36,693
Even though the Castro was firmly our
area by 1973, it wasn't safe for us.
220
00:17:36,768 --> 00:17:40,704
We would have to wear whistles
on our necks or in our pockets.
221
00:17:40,772 --> 00:17:43,468
And if you ever heard a
whistle, you would run to help.
222
00:17:44,242 --> 00:17:47,973
Fruit was walking home with
his trick when he got jumped.
223
00:17:48,046 --> 00:17:50,606
Name's Robert Hillsborough.
Did you know him?
224
00:17:51,650 --> 00:17:54,312
He used to come into my
shop. Are there any witnesses?
225
00:17:54,386 --> 00:17:56,684
Yeah, just
the trick, Jerry Taylor.
226
00:17:56,755 --> 00:17:59,280
Jerry's not his
trick, he's his lover.
227
00:17:59,357 --> 00:18:00,722
Hey,
call it what you will.
228
00:18:00,792 --> 00:18:04,250
All we know is he's our only witness and
he said he can't identify the attackers.
229
00:18:04,329 --> 00:18:06,695
Oh, you'd have a dozen witnesses
if they thought you boys had any
230
00:18:06,765 --> 00:18:08,790
real interest
in protecting them.
231
00:18:24,649 --> 00:18:27,743
SCO TT ON PA/ Hey, come on. Come
over. Everyone gather around.
232
00:18:27,819 --> 00:18:29,582
Hey, Milk,
good job on Coors.
233
00:18:29,654 --> 00:18:32,919
Thank you and we were very happy to
do that. We were very happy to do that.
234
00:18:32,991 --> 00:18:35,016
Everyone over here,
gather around.
235
00:18:40,098 --> 00:18:43,261
Hello. I'm Harvey Milk.
236
00:18:46,638 --> 00:18:48,128
A week ago,
237
00:18:49,674 --> 00:18:53,804
police officers came into
our area with badges covered.
238
00:18:55,347 --> 00:19:00,375
They sent 14 of our people
to hospitals and to jail.
239
00:19:00,452 --> 00:19:04,013
The charges,
"Blocking the sidewalk. "
240
00:19:06,191 --> 00:19:10,821
Let's let our tax money go to our
protection, not our persecution.
241
00:19:11,563 --> 00:19:15,021
Worry about gun control,
not marijuana control.
242
00:19:15,100 --> 00:19:18,797
School supplies, seniors,
not the books we read!
243
00:19:24,142 --> 00:19:25,939
My fellow degenerates,
244
00:19:27,345 --> 00:19:32,783
I would like to announce my candidacy
for San Francisco City Supervisor!
245
00:19:37,255 --> 00:19:39,348
How are you, Lee?
Fine, thank you.
246
00:19:39,424 --> 00:19:41,415
Oh, I bought you some flowers
to brighten up your day.
247
00:19:41,493 --> 00:19:43,961
Could I leave some
flyers for your customers?
248
00:19:44,763 --> 00:19:45,923
Hello, everyone.
249
00:19:45,997 --> 00:19:47,521
Harvey Milk,
running for supervisor.
250
00:19:47,599 --> 00:19:49,089
We need your support.
251
00:19:49,167 --> 00:19:51,135
Are you registered
to vote?
252
00:19:51,203 --> 00:19:53,433
Let me just give you that. It's for
Harvey Milk for supervisor, all right?
253
00:19:53,505 --> 00:19:55,973
He's running for the Board of
Supervisors. Right. Thank you.
254
00:19:56,041 --> 00:19:57,201
Take care.
Have a good day.
255
00:19:57,275 --> 00:20:01,974
Harvey Milk for supervisor! Excuse
me, ma'am, are you registered to vote?
256
00:20:02,047 --> 00:20:03,639
Sir, are you
registered to vote?
257
00:20:03,715 --> 00:20:06,183
I'm Harvey Milk, sir.
I'm running for supervisor.
258
00:20:06,251 --> 00:20:08,776
I want you to know that my
campaign is very interested
259
00:20:08,853 --> 00:20:10,548
in taking care of
seniors in the area.
260
00:20:10,622 --> 00:20:12,146
We've been doing
a lot about reaching out.
261
00:20:12,224 --> 00:20:15,887
I'm Harvey Milk. Will you register
here if you're not registered?
262
00:20:16,494 --> 00:20:21,193
Hey, I like the way those pants
fit! Where are you from, kid?
263
00:20:21,266 --> 00:20:23,530
Sorry, old man,
not interested.
264
00:20:23,602 --> 00:20:25,661
Where's home?
265
00:20:25,737 --> 00:20:27,295
Phoenix.
266
00:20:27,372 --> 00:20:29,966
Come here.
Just come here a minute.
267
00:20:32,811 --> 00:20:35,644
I'm Harvey Milk. I'm
running for supervisor.
268
00:20:35,714 --> 00:20:36,840
What's your name?
269
00:20:36,915 --> 00:20:38,780
Cleve Jones.
270
00:20:38,850 --> 00:20:41,080
Cleve Jones.
You're adorable.
271
00:20:41,620 --> 00:20:45,112
We should get you over here and
get you registered, Mr. Jones.
272
00:20:46,391 --> 00:20:48,086
Fuck that.
Elections of any kind
273
00:20:48,159 --> 00:20:50,252
are fucking
bourgeois affectation.
274
00:20:50,328 --> 00:20:51,989
Is that right?
Mmm-hmm.
275
00:20:52,063 --> 00:20:54,361
What do you do,
trick up on Polk Street?
276
00:20:57,469 --> 00:20:59,494
If I need the cash.
277
00:20:59,571 --> 00:21:02,039
But I'm a little bit more selective
about my clients than you are.
278
00:21:02,107 --> 00:21:04,871
Okay, let me ask you one thing
before you go back to work.
279
00:21:04,943 --> 00:21:07,036
What was it like to be
a little queer in Phoenix?
280
00:21:07,112 --> 00:21:09,603
Did all the jocks beat
you up in gym class?
281
00:21:13,351 --> 00:21:16,081
I faked a lung disease
to get out of P.E.
282
00:21:16,154 --> 00:21:18,782
So what, what are you?
Some kind of street shrink?
283
00:21:18,857 --> 00:21:20,290
Sometimes.
284
00:21:20,358 --> 00:21:23,486
But what I'm talking about
is that we can change Phoenix.
285
00:21:23,962 --> 00:21:26,157
But we have to
start with our street.
286
00:21:27,832 --> 00:21:32,929
Police abuse, rent control,
pot, parks, seniors issues.
287
00:21:33,004 --> 00:21:34,904
Good luck
with all that.
288
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:36,566
Good luck.
289
00:21:38,376 --> 00:21:40,241
You know what I think,
Cleve Jones?
290
00:21:40,312 --> 00:21:42,143
That you're gonna get
somewhere if you keep talking.
291
00:21:42,213 --> 00:21:44,443
No. I think you should
do what you do well.
292
00:21:44,516 --> 00:21:46,040
You should
be a prick.
293
00:21:46,117 --> 00:21:50,213
But come with us and be a prick.
Fight City Hall. Fight the cops.
294
00:21:50,288 --> 00:21:52,813
Fight the people that made you
come here to do what you do.
295
00:21:52,891 --> 00:21:55,758
Sorry, old man, I'm leaving
for Spain tomorrow. Europe.
296
00:21:55,827 --> 00:21:58,227
All the cash I need
is in my back pocket.
297
00:22:07,272 --> 00:22:10,400
I'm just saying that at this point,
it looks like all the big guns,
298
00:22:10,475 --> 00:22:12,033
all the gay money,
the real money,
299
00:22:12,110 --> 00:22:13,475
is gonna get
behind Feinstein
300
00:22:13,545 --> 00:22:15,069
and all the straight candidates
they consider "gay-friendly. ' '
301
00:22:15,146 --> 00:22:16,977
Who cares about
those old queens?
302
00:22:17,048 --> 00:22:18,174
Well, you need
them to get elected.
303
00:22:18,249 --> 00:22:21,047
Why isn't my campaign
manager leading this meeting?
304
00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,747
'Cause I'm exhausted. I've been
handing out pamphlets for seven hours.
305
00:22:23,822 --> 00:22:25,084
Yeah, in a bathhouse.
306
00:22:25,156 --> 00:22:27,056
And who are these so-called
gay leaders anyway?
307
00:22:27,125 --> 00:22:29,650
Who appointed them?
What are you suggesting, Jim?
308
00:22:29,728 --> 00:22:31,923
That I go down there and
solicit their endorsement?
309
00:22:31,996 --> 00:22:35,124
I mean, we're down here trying to help
people on the streets. Where are they?
310
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,395
Yeah, I know, but... You
need an endorsement, Harvey.
311
00:22:37,469 --> 00:22:38,731
Take this.
312
00:22:38,803 --> 00:22:40,100
Checking the exposure.
313
00:22:40,171 --> 00:22:42,139
They're nice pictures.
314
00:22:42,207 --> 00:22:44,107
Is he your boyfriend?
Sort of.
315
00:22:44,542 --> 00:22:46,942
Harvey, David Goodstein is a
publisher from The Advocate.
316
00:22:47,011 --> 00:22:48,410
Harvey.
He's got a house...
317
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:52,678
Harvey, I think
you got to see this.
318
00:22:56,554 --> 00:22:58,988
"Harvey Milk will
have a dream journey
319
00:22:59,057 --> 00:23:02,117
"and nightmare to hell,
a night of horror.
320
00:23:02,193 --> 00:23:07,290
"You will be stabbed and have your
genitals, cock, balls and prick cut off. ' '
321
00:23:08,466 --> 00:23:09,728
I'm calling the police.
322
00:23:09,801 --> 00:23:13,464
They probably wrote it.
Look, think of it this way.
323
00:23:13,538 --> 00:23:15,472
If they try to kill me,
I'll get the sympathy vote.
324
00:23:15,540 --> 00:23:17,872
That might be
just the push we need.
325
00:23:17,942 --> 00:23:20,638
You think this is funny?
Look at it.
326
00:23:23,348 --> 00:23:24,610
It's a total joke.
327
00:23:24,682 --> 00:23:27,776
I mean, it's got no rhythm,
no humor. It's insulting.
328
00:23:31,523 --> 00:23:32,547
Don't do that.
329
00:23:32,624 --> 00:23:34,251
No, if you put it away,
you put it in a drawer,
330
00:23:34,325 --> 00:23:36,293
it just gets
bigger and scarier.
331
00:23:36,361 --> 00:23:39,262
Here, it's right here. We see
it every day. It can't get us.
332
00:23:41,099 --> 00:23:44,034
Gonna spend all this energy
to make yourself a target?
333
00:23:44,102 --> 00:23:45,899
For something you're
not gonna even win?
334
00:23:45,970 --> 00:23:49,064
I keep telling you, it's
not just about winning.
335
00:23:50,375 --> 00:23:53,367
HARVEY/ The top gays in San
Francisco were David Goodstein
336
00:23:53,445 --> 00:23:56,005
and his civil rights lawyer
sidekick, Rick Stokes.
337
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:59,243
David was a rich old queen who had bought
the biggest gay magazine, The Advocate.
338
00:23:59,317 --> 00:24:02,013
Hello. Hello, welcome
to Mr. Goodstein's.
339
00:24:02,086 --> 00:24:03,178
Milo.
340
00:24:04,923 --> 00:24:07,323
I worked for a financial
institution in New York.
341
00:24:07,392 --> 00:24:08,916
I was very discreet.
342
00:24:08,993 --> 00:24:11,052
One night I went to
the Metropolitan Opera,
343
00:24:11,129 --> 00:24:13,097
II Trovatore, Verdi.
344
00:24:13,164 --> 00:24:15,530
I was sitting in a
box, next to my lover.
345
00:24:16,334 --> 00:24:19,098
Someone spotted us.
Next day I was fired.
346
00:24:20,438 --> 00:24:22,269
So I decided to do
something about it.
347
00:24:22,340 --> 00:24:25,207
Came out here to San Francisco,
I bought The Advocate.
348
00:24:25,643 --> 00:24:30,512
I use my money and my influence, in very
subtle and quiet ways, to do what I can.
349
00:24:31,316 --> 00:24:33,079
So you think that backing
straight candidates
350
00:24:33,151 --> 00:24:34,345
is the best
way to help us?
351
00:24:34,419 --> 00:24:36,387
Yeah, if they're
friendly to our cause.
352
00:24:36,454 --> 00:24:38,388
Supervisor is
a citywide office.
353
00:24:38,456 --> 00:24:40,185
Political alliances
have to be built.
354
00:24:40,258 --> 00:24:44,388
You can't just move here from across
the country and run for that office.
355
00:24:44,462 --> 00:24:45,929
But I am running for office.
356
00:24:45,997 --> 00:24:47,294
I'm on the ballot.
357
00:24:47,365 --> 00:24:49,492
I have the union rank and
file, I have the seniors.
358
00:24:49,567 --> 00:24:52,365
And I would like to have
your magazine's endorsement.
359
00:24:53,872 --> 00:24:56,807
Harvey, we're like
the Catholic church.
360
00:24:56,875 --> 00:25:00,402
We welcome converts, but we
don't make them Pope the same day.
361
00:25:00,478 --> 00:25:02,571
Why haven't
you run yet?
362
00:25:02,647 --> 00:25:05,616
Too early.
Especially from the Castro.
363
00:25:07,085 --> 00:25:08,518
What's wrong
with the Castro?
364
00:25:08,586 --> 00:25:11,521
Nobody works there. It's all
about sex and drugs and more sex.
365
00:25:11,589 --> 00:25:13,887
David, we need one
of our own in office.
366
00:25:15,460 --> 00:25:19,863
Harvey, you can't demand
acceptance overnight.
367
00:25:19,931 --> 00:25:21,057
Why not?
368
00:25:21,132 --> 00:25:23,828
The more "out" you make us,
the more you incite them.
369
00:25:23,902 --> 00:25:26,803
Harvey, step back and quiet down.
370
00:25:26,871 --> 00:25:29,032
You're suggesting we should
go back in the closet?
371
00:25:29,107 --> 00:25:30,506
Is that what
you're saying?
372
00:25:30,575 --> 00:25:33,544
I spent more years in the
closet than I care to remember.
373
00:25:33,611 --> 00:25:35,238
Let's go, Scott.
Yeah.
374
00:25:35,313 --> 00:25:36,746
I don't need your
magazine's endorsement.
375
00:25:36,814 --> 00:25:39,908
And I'm not asking for anyone's
acceptance. I don't have time.
376
00:25:40,485 --> 00:25:43,511
For you,
politics is a game, a lark.
377
00:25:43,588 --> 00:25:46,421
It's like putting on a rock
festival or staging a love-in.
378
00:25:46,491 --> 00:25:48,584
You're too old to be
a hippie, Harvey Milk.
379
00:25:48,660 --> 00:25:51,595
I am not a candidate.
I am part of a movement.
380
00:25:51,663 --> 00:25:54,689
The movement is the candidate.
There is a difference.
381
00:25:54,766 --> 00:25:56,700
You don't see it,
but I do.
382
00:25:58,836 --> 00:26:00,929
Sorry, I, uh,
pissed in the pool.
383
00:26:02,607 --> 00:26:07,704
So, on election day, out of 32
candidates vying for six seats,
384
00:26:07,779 --> 00:26:11,078
we came in tenth.
We lost.
385
00:26:11,149 --> 00:26:17,952
But only a few votes shy of my becoming
the first big eared, cock-sucking,
386
00:26:19,057 --> 00:26:21,958
queer as a
three-dollar-bill-man
387
00:26:22,026 --> 00:26:24,051
to be elected
to public office.
388
00:26:25,196 --> 00:26:28,324
So we decided to
try it again in 1975.
389
00:26:30,134 --> 00:26:32,193
Only this time,
with a few adjustments.
390
00:26:34,272 --> 00:26:38,299
No. No, not cute. I hate the shoes.
391
00:26:38,376 --> 00:26:40,207
I hate the hair.
You're not fooling anybody.
392
00:26:40,278 --> 00:26:42,542
I'm not gonna let those
little Pacific Heights biddies
393
00:26:42,614 --> 00:26:45,412
write me off anymore because
of a ponytail. I like it.
394
00:26:45,483 --> 00:26:50,045
No more bathhouses, no more
pot, for me and my little poo.
395
00:26:52,023 --> 00:26:53,354
Speak for yourself.
Come on.
396
00:26:53,424 --> 00:27:00,592
We ran and lost the supervisor's
race for the second time in 1975,
397
00:27:00,665 --> 00:27:03,657
but with more votes than ever before.
398
00:27:04,369 --> 00:27:09,602
So in 1976,
against everyone's advice,
399
00:27:09,674 --> 00:27:12,871
I really pissed off
the political power houses
400
00:27:12,944 --> 00:27:16,004
in the Democratic party by
running against their man,
401
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:19,675
Art Agnos, who was part
of their political machine.
402
00:27:19,751 --> 00:27:22,811
And this time, not for
supervisor, but for a bigger job,
403
00:27:22,887 --> 00:27:24,684
for the California
State Assembly.
404
00:27:24,756 --> 00:27:28,021
I don't think that State Assembly
seats should be the reward
405
00:27:28,092 --> 00:27:29,957
for service to the
Democratic party machine.
406
00:27:30,028 --> 00:27:32,622
Machines run on oil and
grease. They're dirty.
407
00:27:33,164 --> 00:27:37,157
They're dehumanizing. And they
tend to be entirely unresponsive
408
00:27:37,235 --> 00:27:40,261
to the needs of anybody,
but those of their operator.
409
00:27:40,705 --> 00:27:44,334
Mr. Milk, I've been a social
worker in this city for years.
410
00:27:44,409 --> 00:27:46,206
I know Sacramento.
411
00:27:46,277 --> 00:27:48,745
I know how to get done
what we all need done there.
412
00:27:48,813 --> 00:27:52,510
Tell me something, Mr. Agnos,
right here in the Castro,
413
00:27:52,583 --> 00:27:57,350
Robert Hillsbourough was murdered for
walking home with his longtime partner.
414
00:27:57,422 --> 00:27:59,287
He was stabbed 15 times.
415
00:28:00,024 --> 00:28:04,825
The last words he heard were,
"Faggot, faggot, faggot. ' '
416
00:28:04,896 --> 00:28:08,593
Now, you say
you're outraged.
417
00:28:10,034 --> 00:28:15,165
Why then does your liberal
establishment refuse to answer our calls?
418
00:28:15,239 --> 00:28:17,969
Why do they not bring
these murderers to justice?
419
00:28:21,779 --> 00:28:23,644
My God, you're handsome up close.
420
00:28:24,782 --> 00:28:27,649
Can't tell you how much I'm
looking forward to licking you,
421
00:28:27,719 --> 00:28:28,981
in the polls.
422
00:28:30,154 --> 00:28:32,952
You know, Harv, your
whole rap's a real downer.
423
00:28:33,991 --> 00:28:36,255
You talk a lot about
what you're against.
424
00:28:36,327 --> 00:28:37,919
But what are you for?
425
00:28:37,995 --> 00:28:42,364
In this town, you got to give them a
reason for optimism, or you're cooked.
426
00:28:46,437 --> 00:28:48,302
See you around.
427
00:28:48,372 --> 00:28:49,304
Okay, Art.
428
00:28:49,974 --> 00:28:51,805
You're gonna wanna
read that entire thing.
429
00:28:51,876 --> 00:28:53,207
Okay,
I'll take a look at it.
430
00:28:53,277 --> 00:28:54,642
Excuse me.
431
00:28:54,712 --> 00:28:56,680
Guys.
Don't touch that.
432
00:28:57,315 --> 00:29:00,375
Harvey. Harvey, dinner. Have
to get some union boys in there.
433
00:29:00,451 --> 00:29:02,885
They love me,
they love me.
434
00:29:06,224 --> 00:29:08,556
Excuse me.
Excuse me.
435
00:29:10,128 --> 00:29:12,221
Harvey, you have to eat.
436
00:29:12,296 --> 00:29:15,356
Everyone, the apartment
is now off limits!
437
00:29:15,433 --> 00:29:17,264
Good night.
Good night.
438
00:29:18,503 --> 00:29:20,437
Good night.
Whose jacket is this?
439
00:29:20,505 --> 00:29:22,336
Right here.
Here you go. Good night.
440
00:29:22,406 --> 00:29:25,204
Down the stairs.
Thank you. Thank you.
441
00:29:26,978 --> 00:29:28,377
Good night. Thank you.
442
00:29:28,446 --> 00:29:30,141
I think you got to call the guy,
'cause I can't talk to that guy.
443
00:29:30,214 --> 00:29:31,772
Sit.
444
00:29:33,084 --> 00:29:35,484
Don't say anything.
445
00:29:46,664 --> 00:29:48,029
Can I just tell you...
446
00:29:48,099 --> 00:29:51,262
If you say anything about
politics or the campaign,
447
00:29:51,335 --> 00:29:53,530
or what speech you
have to give or anything,
448
00:29:53,604 --> 00:29:56,164
I swear to God I'm gonna
stab you with this fork.
449
00:29:57,241 --> 00:30:03,237
I just wanted to say that this is the
most wonderful dinner I have ever had.
450
00:30:08,019 --> 00:30:11,955
If we lose this, it'll
just be you and me again.
451
00:30:12,023 --> 00:30:13,888
I promise.
452
00:30:13,958 --> 00:30:15,687
I'm sorry, I just...
453
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:19,890
No, I know.
I know, I know.
454
00:31:23,461 --> 00:31:24,689
Phoenix.
455
00:31:25,363 --> 00:31:27,194
At least now
you look gay.
456
00:31:34,572 --> 00:31:36,199
Let's go inside.
457
00:31:47,318 --> 00:31:49,411
Are you
staying up with me?
458
00:31:52,023 --> 00:31:54,651
The election's tomorrow.
I won't sleep anyway.
459
00:32:03,301 --> 00:32:04,563
Was he handsome?
460
00:32:04,635 --> 00:32:07,832
Oh, no!
He was hideous.
461
00:32:10,241 --> 00:32:14,610
Usually when my lovers leave, they
cheat with even more attractive men.
462
00:32:19,450 --> 00:32:24,513
I actually thought we were gonna
spend the rest of our lives together.
463
00:32:30,928 --> 00:32:32,862
Well, guess what, Cleve Jones.
464
00:32:34,298 --> 00:32:35,390
What?
465
00:32:35,466 --> 00:32:39,596
You're going to meet the
most extraordinary men,
466
00:32:39,670 --> 00:32:42,935
the sexiest, funniest, brightest men.
467
00:32:43,007 --> 00:32:45,532
You're going to meet so many of them,
fall in love with so many of them,
468
00:32:45,609 --> 00:32:47,167
you won't know till
the end of your life
469
00:32:47,244 --> 00:32:50,771
which ones were your greatest lovers
and which were your greatest friends.
470
00:32:51,983 --> 00:32:53,780
Is that supposed to help?
471
00:32:54,418 --> 00:32:57,182
Maybe a little. Or not.
472
00:33:07,131 --> 00:33:09,964
I went to
Spain last month.
473
00:33:10,034 --> 00:33:11,365
Long story.
474
00:33:15,439 --> 00:33:18,306
In Barcelona, there
was this memorial march
475
00:33:18,376 --> 00:33:20,970
for gay people that
had died under Franco.
476
00:33:22,446 --> 00:33:24,778
Of course, the police
tried to break it up.
477
00:33:24,849 --> 00:33:26,908
But these queens didn't run.
No.
478
00:33:26,984 --> 00:33:30,420
They turned around and
they started a fucking riot.
479
00:33:30,488 --> 00:33:33,321
I saw a bullet, one of
those big rubber bullets
480
00:33:33,391 --> 00:33:37,487
rip through a drag queen's
scalp, but she kept on fighting.
481
00:33:38,062 --> 00:33:41,088
She was screaming,
but she kept on fighting.
482
00:33:42,299 --> 00:33:43,288
I mean...
483
00:33:45,469 --> 00:33:46,834
Our lives.
484
00:33:49,340 --> 00:33:52,707
There was blood literally
running in the gutter.
485
00:33:54,545 --> 00:33:56,274
In a gutter.
486
00:34:00,117 --> 00:34:02,813
We could have
a revolution here.
487
00:34:04,989 --> 00:34:08,481
But you can't use the
Castro just to cruise.
488
00:34:09,427 --> 00:34:10,985
You have to fight.
489
00:34:14,231 --> 00:34:15,823
You really think you'll win?
490
00:34:15,900 --> 00:34:18,994
Winning is
not my strong suit.
491
00:34:20,104 --> 00:34:21,469
Well,
492
00:34:23,174 --> 00:34:25,472
I don't do losing, ever.
493
00:34:25,543 --> 00:34:28,842
Maybe I should run for office
and you can work for me.
494
00:34:28,913 --> 00:34:31,074
I mean, if you can do it...
495
00:34:31,148 --> 00:34:33,309
Can you assemble a
thousand people in an hour?
496
00:34:33,384 --> 00:34:34,510
Fuck, yeah.
497
00:34:34,585 --> 00:34:37,110
Well, if I run again,
you're gonna be my man.
498
00:34:38,289 --> 00:34:39,449
Lf?
499
00:34:40,424 --> 00:34:42,085
You're so adorable.
500
00:34:44,261 --> 00:34:46,229
The polls are open in 3 hours.
501
00:34:47,164 --> 00:34:49,428
How about you and
I hit the bus stops?
502
00:34:51,302 --> 00:34:52,291
Okay.
503
00:34:54,105 --> 00:34:59,008
Yes, Jesus
504
00:34:59,810 --> 00:35:02,176
Loves me
505
00:35:02,246 --> 00:35:05,613
Anita Bryant was once
known as an orange juice saleswoman.
506
00:35:05,683 --> 00:35:09,278
Hi, I'm Anita Bryant.
507
00:35:09,820 --> 00:35:11,310
Hello, I'm Anita Bryant.
508
00:35:11,388 --> 00:35:13,788
With a religious fervor
that has made her America's most
509
00:35:13,858 --> 00:35:15,655
controversial woman overnight,
510
00:35:15,726 --> 00:35:18,923
her group is crusading to
repeal a new Dade County law,
511
00:35:18,996 --> 00:35:21,726
which protects homosexuals
in jobs and housing.
512
00:35:21,799 --> 00:35:26,566
I believe that more than ever
before, that there are evil forces
513
00:35:29,707 --> 00:35:31,174
round about us,
514
00:35:32,443 --> 00:35:35,173
even perhaps disguised
as something good,
515
00:35:37,281 --> 00:35:39,841
that would
want to tear down
516
00:35:39,917 --> 00:35:44,513
the very foundation, the family
unit, that holds America together.
517
00:35:44,588 --> 00:35:46,385
There are those people
who say that it is
518
00:35:46,457 --> 00:35:48,857
kind of an eye for an eye
law that is at work here,
519
00:35:48,926 --> 00:35:51,451
that you're denying homosexuals
many of their rights as well.
520
00:35:51,529 --> 00:35:54,521
You see, if homosexuals are
allowed their civil rights,
521
00:35:54,598 --> 00:35:57,465
then so would prostitutes
or thieves or anyone else.
522
00:35:57,535 --> 00:35:59,799
God puts it in
a category of morality.
523
00:35:59,870 --> 00:36:02,031
Doesn't that necessarily
follow that you believe that
524
00:36:02,106 --> 00:36:03,767
homosexuality
ought to be illegal?
525
00:36:03,841 --> 00:36:06,309
ANITA/ I do believe that
it should be illegal.
526
00:36:06,377 --> 00:36:08,777
Well, we lost, but
we didn't lose by much.
527
00:36:09,513 --> 00:36:11,879
More votes than ever!
528
00:36:14,919 --> 00:36:16,750
That used to
make you laugh.
529
00:36:19,390 --> 00:36:21,517
Harvey, I got to
show you something.
530
00:36:22,993 --> 00:36:24,460
This is incredible.
531
00:36:27,665 --> 00:36:31,692
If we can get that new initiative
on district elections to go through,
532
00:36:31,769 --> 00:36:34,237
and we can, we can,
533
00:36:36,740 --> 00:36:39,140
the boundary for the
new supervisor district
534
00:36:40,744 --> 00:36:42,939
is gonna go right
down Market Street,
535
00:36:45,082 --> 00:36:49,018
right around the
Haight like this,
536
00:36:51,889 --> 00:36:55,450
and right around
the Castro.
537
00:36:58,395 --> 00:37:00,955
The Haight and the Castro.
That's it.
538
00:37:01,999 --> 00:37:06,527
If these are the only people we have
to convince, the hippies and the gays,
539
00:37:07,471 --> 00:37:09,996
you win, you win.
540
00:37:11,508 --> 00:37:13,305
You win by a landslide.
541
00:37:17,281 --> 00:37:22,719
You'll be the first openly gay man
elected to major office in the U.S.
542
00:37:26,423 --> 00:37:29,881
I don't know if I
have another one in me.
543
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:31,518
Or Scotty.
544
00:37:34,632 --> 00:37:35,826
Yeah, well.
545
00:37:48,245 --> 00:37:51,806
Relentless man.
Oh, you're a relentless man.
546
00:37:58,289 --> 00:38:02,419
This is the CBS
Evening News with Walter Cronkite.
547
00:38:02,493 --> 00:38:06,156
The battle over homosexual
rights in Dade County, Florida.
548
00:38:06,230 --> 00:38:08,095
The battle pitting
singer Anita Bryant
549
00:38:08,165 --> 00:38:11,862
against gay rights activist
comes to a vote there Tuesday.
550
00:38:11,935 --> 00:38:15,336
The issue was whether or not to
repeal a four-month-old ordinance,
551
00:38:15,406 --> 00:38:19,433
which prohibits job and housing
discrimination against homosexuals.
552
00:38:19,510 --> 00:38:20,977
In
anticipation of the vote,
553
00:38:21,045 --> 00:38:23,036
the gay community
has staged protests
554
00:38:23,113 --> 00:38:26,480
in New York and other major
cities across the country.
555
00:38:26,550 --> 00:38:30,316
The vote is
going now 18,930 for repeal.
556
00:38:30,387 --> 00:38:32,116
Oh, give me
a fucking break.
557
00:38:32,189 --> 00:38:34,180
Eighty eight hundred
sixty nine against repeal.
558
00:38:34,258 --> 00:38:37,421
Virgil, is that enough for
you to make a projection?
559
00:38:37,494 --> 00:38:43,126
Yes, I think very definitely that
the ordinance is going to be repealed.
560
00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:45,395
With this margin, it's over.
561
00:38:45,469 --> 00:38:49,166
Tonight, the laws of God
562
00:38:49,239 --> 00:38:53,335
and the cultural values
of man have been vindicated.
563
00:38:53,410 --> 00:38:57,073
The people of Dade County,
the normal majority,
564
00:38:57,147 --> 00:39:02,016
have said,
"Enough, enough, enough. "
565
00:39:02,086 --> 00:39:05,249
Singer Anita
Bryant's well publicized...
566
00:39:12,763 --> 00:39:14,162
Scotty?
567
00:39:14,231 --> 00:39:16,665
I'm sorry, sir, I read
about you in the paper.
568
00:39:16,734 --> 00:39:19,202
I'm sorry.
I can't talk right now.
569
00:39:19,770 --> 00:39:21,328
Sir, I think I'm
gonna kill myself.
570
00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:25,699
No. You don't
want to do that.
571
00:39:26,610 --> 00:39:28,441
Where are you calling from?
572
00:39:28,512 --> 00:39:29,809
Minnesota.
573
00:39:31,715 --> 00:39:34,479
You saw my picture in
the paper in Minnesota?
574
00:39:34,551 --> 00:39:35,575
How did I look?
575
00:39:35,652 --> 00:39:41,284
My folks are gonna take me to this
place tomorrow. A hospital. To fix me.
576
00:39:43,894 --> 00:39:46,260
There's nothing wrong
with you. Listen to me.
577
00:39:46,330 --> 00:39:49,060
You just get on a bus to
the nearest biggest city.
578
00:39:49,133 --> 00:39:52,000
Los Angeles or New
York or San Francisco,
579
00:39:52,069 --> 00:39:53,536
it doesn't matter,
you just leave.
580
00:39:53,604 --> 00:39:56,072
And you are not sick,
581
00:39:56,140 --> 00:39:58,973
and you are not wrong
and God does not hate you.
582
00:39:59,343 --> 00:40:00,401
Just leave.
583
00:40:02,846 --> 00:40:05,815
I can't.
I can't walk, sir.
584
00:40:05,883 --> 00:40:07,942
Paul, I need
you to come out here.
585
00:40:08,018 --> 00:40:09,076
Hello?
586
00:40:09,153 --> 00:40:11,144
Harvey!
587
00:40:11,221 --> 00:40:12,279
Hello?
588
00:40:13,624 --> 00:40:15,148
Oh, shit.
589
00:40:15,225 --> 00:40:18,353
Harvey, you better come down,
there's going to be a riot.
590
00:40:31,508 --> 00:40:33,669
Harvey, you should get to the stage.
591
00:40:33,744 --> 00:40:35,439
Bring him the stage, guys.
592
00:40:36,580 --> 00:40:39,276
If you can't control
them, we will.
593
00:40:39,349 --> 00:40:41,749
Just get me permission
to march them.
594
00:40:41,819 --> 00:40:43,218
Where?
595
00:40:43,287 --> 00:40:44,379
Anywhere.
596
00:40:58,635 --> 00:41:00,603
Out of the bar
and into the streets!
597
00:41:00,671 --> 00:41:03,003
Anita Bryant's
coming for you!
598
00:41:04,374 --> 00:41:06,308
Out of the bar
and into the streets!
599
00:41:06,376 --> 00:41:08,674
Anita Bryant's
coming for you!
600
00:41:08,745 --> 00:41:28,631
We have vowed
to fight back!
601
00:41:36,607 --> 00:41:38,700
I know you are angry.
602
00:41:43,213 --> 00:41:45,044
I am angry!
603
00:41:47,084 --> 00:41:53,421
Let's march the streets of San
Francisco and share our anger!
604
00:42:01,598 --> 00:42:03,463
Gay rights now!
605
00:42:03,534 --> 00:42:06,799
Gay rights now!
Gay rights now!
606
00:42:06,870 --> 00:42:11,500
Gay rights now! Gay
rights now! Gay rights now!
607
00:42:11,575 --> 00:42:14,373
Gay rights now!
Gay rights now!
608
00:42:14,444 --> 00:42:16,002
Gay rights now!
609
00:42:16,079 --> 00:42:17,546
Gay rights now!
610
00:42:17,614 --> 00:42:18,638
Gay rights now!
Gay rights now!
611
00:42:18,715 --> 00:42:28,314
Gay rights now!
Gay rights now!
612
00:42:28,725 --> 00:42:34,893
Gay rights now!
Gay rights now!
613
00:42:50,013 --> 00:42:52,573
My name is Harvey Milk
and I want to recruit you.
614
00:42:55,886 --> 00:42:58,081
I am here tonight to say
615
00:42:59,056 --> 00:43:03,390
that we will no longer
sit quietly in the closet.
616
00:43:04,595 --> 00:43:06,654
We must fight.
617
00:43:06,730 --> 00:43:09,392
And not only
in the Castro,
618
00:43:09,466 --> 00:43:12,697
not only in
San Francisco,
619
00:43:12,769 --> 00:43:15,397
but everywhere
the Anitas go.
620
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:19,634
Anita Bryant
did not win tonight.
621
00:43:20,077 --> 00:43:23,513
Anita Bryant
brought us together!
622
00:43:26,216 --> 00:43:32,416
She is going to create
a national gay force!
623
00:43:37,361 --> 00:43:42,526
And the young people
in Jackson, Mississippi,
624
00:43:43,867 --> 00:43:47,428
in Minnesota,
in the Richmond,
625
00:43:48,538 --> 00:43:50,130
in Woodmere, New York,
626
00:43:51,541 --> 00:43:56,069
who are hearing
her on television,
627
00:43:56,146 --> 00:44:00,048
hearing Anita Bryant
on television,
628
00:44:00,117 --> 00:44:04,417
telling them they are
sick, they are wrong,
629
00:44:05,055 --> 00:44:09,617
there is no place in this
great country for them,
630
00:44:09,693 --> 00:44:12,253
no place in this world,
631
00:44:12,329 --> 00:44:15,821
they are looking to us
for something tonight.
632
00:44:17,300 --> 00:44:19,291
And I say
633
00:44:19,369 --> 00:44:22,634
we have got to
give them hope!
634
00:44:25,709 --> 00:44:26,733
Hope!
635
00:44:26,977 --> 00:44:30,674
...for a better world.
Hope for a better tomorrow.
636
00:44:31,481 --> 00:44:34,780
Hope for a better place to come into
if the pressures at home are too great.
637
00:44:34,851 --> 00:44:38,685
Hope for the worker who
awakens from the American dream
638
00:44:38,755 --> 00:44:41,588
only to find that all the
jobs have left the country.
639
00:44:41,658 --> 00:44:43,649
We've got to
give them hope.
640
00:44:56,506 --> 00:44:59,998
When San Francisco
changed its voting rules,
641
00:45:00,077 --> 00:45:03,046
so that people could elect people
from their own neighborhood,
642
00:45:03,113 --> 00:45:07,209
so that the blacks could elect
a African-American supervisor,
643
00:45:07,284 --> 00:45:10,310
and in Chinatown, they could
elect a Chinese supervisor,
644
00:45:10,387 --> 00:45:14,448
and in the Castro, they could choose
between myself and Rick Stokes.
645
00:45:15,025 --> 00:45:16,925
But decent art
begs balance, right?
646
00:45:16,993 --> 00:45:20,394
So, little district eight,
two miles south of the Castro,
647
00:45:20,464 --> 00:45:24,560
still very much the same.
Irish Catholic, conservative.
648
00:45:24,634 --> 00:45:26,898
And with just the
right amount of poetry,
649
00:45:26,970 --> 00:45:29,768
they found themselves
a handsome ex-cop.
650
00:45:30,173 --> 00:45:32,733
See, I'm not going to be
forced out of San Francisco
651
00:45:32,809 --> 00:45:37,940
by splinter groups of social radicals,
social deviants, and incorrigibles.
652
00:45:38,014 --> 00:45:41,916
Now you must realize that there are
thousands upon thousands of frustrated,
653
00:45:41,985 --> 00:45:44,647
angry people,
such as yourselves,
654
00:45:44,721 --> 00:45:47,918
just waiting to unleash
a fury that will eradicate
655
00:45:47,991 --> 00:45:50,926
the malignancies that
blight our beautiful city.
656
00:45:54,264 --> 00:45:57,700
Just one more. We can't let
Rick Stokes take this one.
657
00:45:57,768 --> 00:45:59,599
Let Rick Stokes
take it.
658
00:46:07,110 --> 00:46:08,407
Sorry.
659
00:46:11,348 --> 00:46:13,282
I can't do another one.
660
00:46:57,561 --> 00:47:01,292
Oh, God damn it.
661
00:47:23,253 --> 00:47:25,221
Bring out the old,
bring in the new.
662
00:47:25,288 --> 00:47:27,552
This is over. Done.
663
00:47:27,624 --> 00:47:30,559
I don't want to see one more thing
that says fucking Assembly on it.
664
00:47:30,627 --> 00:47:35,690
'Cause this three time faggot
loser is running for supervisor.
665
00:47:35,765 --> 00:47:37,824
There she is.
Who the heck is that?
666
00:47:37,901 --> 00:47:39,926
That's our
new campaign manager.
667
00:47:40,003 --> 00:47:43,063
She called last week to volunteer
and I asked for her help.
668
00:47:43,139 --> 00:47:45,869
Help or take over?
What about Scott?
669
00:47:45,942 --> 00:47:47,432
We need new blood.
670
00:47:47,510 --> 00:47:51,310
Gentlemen, Anne Kronenberg.
A woman.
671
00:47:51,381 --> 00:47:54,908
A woman who likes women.
And that's odd, isn't it?
672
00:47:54,985 --> 00:47:56,543
Hi, guys.
673
00:47:56,620 --> 00:48:00,283
Mr. Milk, Rick Stokes isn't pulling out.
674
00:48:00,357 --> 00:48:02,791
He's officially filed
to run against you.
675
00:48:02,859 --> 00:48:06,158
My friend at The Advocate says
David Goodstein is backing him.
676
00:48:06,229 --> 00:48:08,459
So, a gay candidate
against a gay candidate.
677
00:48:08,531 --> 00:48:09,964
That's unfortunate.
678
00:48:10,033 --> 00:48:11,295
Let's find out when they
are going to announce.
679
00:48:11,368 --> 00:48:13,199
So you replaced
Scott with a lesbian?
680
00:48:13,270 --> 00:48:15,568
Anne worked on a recycling
campaign up north.
681
00:48:15,639 --> 00:48:18,233
She's very, very organized.
We need that.
682
00:48:18,308 --> 00:48:20,333
How do you know she's
not a plant for Rick Stokes?
683
00:48:20,410 --> 00:48:22,640
Are you guys
always this paranoid?
684
00:48:22,712 --> 00:48:25,306
Yes. We take after Harvey.
685
00:48:25,382 --> 00:48:27,316
Don't you have someone's
laundry to do?
686
00:48:27,384 --> 00:48:29,249
Shouldn't you be at
a hairdressing convention?
687
00:48:30,687 --> 00:48:33,155
Sir, my girlfriends say
you guys don't like women.
688
00:48:33,223 --> 00:48:34,485
I'm just asking.
689
00:48:34,557 --> 00:48:38,288
Is there a place for us in all
this or are you all scared of girls?
690
00:48:41,264 --> 00:48:42,788
Okay, gentlemen,
691
00:48:42,866 --> 00:48:45,198
we've already got a tinker
bell, a lotus blossom.
692
00:48:45,268 --> 00:48:46,895
We've got Jim and Dick
in their three-piece suits.
693
00:48:46,970 --> 00:48:51,168
We need someone to manage
things. A woman this time.
694
00:48:52,409 --> 00:48:54,070
Plus,
she's the right price,
695
00:48:54,144 --> 00:48:56,612
and she's got bigger balls
than anybody else in here.
696
00:48:56,680 --> 00:48:59,012
Just give me whatever is in the
register at the end of the day.
697
00:48:59,082 --> 00:49:04,816
So should I call The Chronicle about
getting us an actual endorsement this time?
698
00:49:04,888 --> 00:49:06,014
No?
699
00:49:06,089 --> 00:49:08,990
Yeah, call The Chronicle,
sweetheart. Tell them I said hi.
700
00:49:09,059 --> 00:49:11,892
Please call. In fact,
don't drive down there.
701
00:49:11,962 --> 00:49:13,759
You'll scare
the shit out of them.
702
00:49:15,532 --> 00:49:17,056
Call.
703
00:49:17,133 --> 00:49:18,225
All right.
704
00:49:18,301 --> 00:49:19,700
Hi, I'm Cleve.
705
00:49:19,769 --> 00:49:21,464
Anne. Good to meet you.
706
00:49:21,538 --> 00:49:24,302
I was telling Harvey we needed
some tough dykes around here, so...
707
00:49:24,374 --> 00:49:25,773
Well, you got one.
708
00:50:15,792 --> 00:50:16,884
All right.
709
00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:19,952
First ever newspaper
endorsement.
710
00:50:20,030 --> 00:50:22,726
And we got
the Bay Guardian,
711
00:50:22,799 --> 00:50:25,529
The Sentinel and
The Bay Area Reporter.
712
00:50:28,972 --> 00:50:33,375
You are pulling your weight.
Oh, this is sensational!
713
00:50:34,778 --> 00:50:37,440
They endorsed you for
being a good businessman?
714
00:50:37,514 --> 00:50:40,415
Oh, my gosh, you really
are a miracle worker.
715
00:50:40,483 --> 00:50:42,815
Scott has got to read this.
He's just gonna piss himself.
716
00:50:42,886 --> 00:50:44,615
Yeah,
you should show him.
717
00:50:45,555 --> 00:50:46,817
You know what you should do, Cleve,
718
00:50:46,890 --> 00:50:50,189
you should get yourself a boy to
celebrate with, just in case we win.
719
00:50:50,260 --> 00:50:51,659
Anybody want to
buy me a drink?
720
00:50:51,728 --> 00:50:53,559
Oh, I will buy you
a drink.
721
00:50:53,630 --> 00:50:55,097
How about a bottle
of champagne?
722
00:50:56,399 --> 00:50:59,630
We are going to The Stud
right fucking now.
723
00:50:59,702 --> 00:51:01,670
Harvey, are you going to
come? You're gonna miss out?
724
00:51:01,738 --> 00:51:04,468
Go, go, go, go. I want
to be with my newspaper.
725
00:51:07,310 --> 00:51:08,971
Come on, let's go.
Come on, I'm buying.
726
00:51:09,045 --> 00:51:11,570
You're not buying.
You don't have any money.
727
00:51:20,123 --> 00:51:21,852
Gonna win this time, Milk?
728
00:52:01,097 --> 00:52:03,361
You look more
handsome in the poster.
729
00:52:04,667 --> 00:52:05,793
Oh, thank you.
730
00:52:08,571 --> 00:52:12,302
You know, palominos
are my favorite horse.
731
00:52:12,809 --> 00:52:14,504
They're smart.
732
00:52:15,111 --> 00:52:17,443
But they're
compact and fast.
733
00:52:17,514 --> 00:52:19,448
I like that.
734
00:52:22,886 --> 00:52:26,788
You think I'm more
like a palomino,
735
00:52:28,391 --> 00:52:30,518
or a stallion?
736
00:52:31,294 --> 00:52:33,785
You know,
with big balls and...
737
00:52:33,863 --> 00:52:37,026
Oh, oh, oh, oh!
Here, let me help you.
738
00:52:39,469 --> 00:52:41,198
You okay?
739
00:52:41,271 --> 00:52:43,296
Yeah, it's...
Come in.
740
00:52:43,373 --> 00:52:46,137
Here, just lean on me.
741
00:52:46,209 --> 00:52:47,642
Thank you.
What happened?
742
00:52:47,710 --> 00:52:49,974
I don't know, these
boots are too big for me.
743
00:52:50,046 --> 00:52:54,039
Oh, well, let's get you in
and get those off your feet.
744
00:52:54,117 --> 00:52:56,415
Where you going?
745
00:52:56,486 --> 00:52:58,579
I have
some things to do.
746
00:52:58,655 --> 00:53:01,283
I got to go and meet
some friends. No, no, no.
747
00:53:12,101 --> 00:53:14,569
My father beat
me when he found out.
748
00:53:14,871 --> 00:53:17,271
So, that's
why I came here.
749
00:53:18,575 --> 00:53:24,844
But, I'm living with this
guy that... I don't know.
750
00:53:25,515 --> 00:53:27,380
I don't like him.
751
00:53:30,353 --> 00:53:32,548
Nobody will
ever beat you again.
752
00:53:37,427 --> 00:53:40,658
I love you.
I love you.
753
00:53:41,931 --> 00:53:43,899
Do you even
remember my name?
754
00:53:49,105 --> 00:53:50,732
No.
755
00:53:50,807 --> 00:53:52,001
Harvey.
756
00:53:53,376 --> 00:53:54,638
I'm Harvey.
757
00:53:55,945 --> 00:53:58,709
Harvey, I love you.
758
00:54:09,926 --> 00:54:11,018
Thanks.
759
00:54:11,094 --> 00:54:12,186
Thank you.
760
00:54:23,172 --> 00:54:25,902
For the first
time, it all came together.
761
00:54:25,975 --> 00:54:31,811
The union boys, women, the
seniors, the gays and minorities.
762
00:54:31,881 --> 00:54:34,179
All of the "us's"
showed up.
763
00:54:34,250 --> 00:54:36,184
We can hear it,
we can't really see too much,
764
00:54:36,252 --> 00:54:38,686
but it looks and sounds
to you and to me
765
00:54:38,755 --> 00:54:41,087
like New Year's Eve
on Market Street.
766
00:54:45,428 --> 00:54:47,658
We did it!
767
00:54:47,730 --> 00:54:49,664
I love you all!
768
00:55:05,481 --> 00:55:09,781
We are the movement. We are
the movement. Thank you so much.
769
00:55:10,386 --> 00:55:11,785
Come on, we just want
to congratulate him.
770
00:55:11,854 --> 00:55:14,414
No, I understand, but
right now we're all full.
771
00:55:18,127 --> 00:55:20,027
Harvey!
772
00:55:20,096 --> 00:55:21,222
Harvey!
Harvey!
773
00:55:21,297 --> 00:55:23,527
Hey, Harvey!
774
00:55:25,068 --> 00:55:26,160
Hey.
775
00:55:26,235 --> 00:55:29,636
Sorry, it's just so crowded.
776
00:55:29,706 --> 00:55:31,970
Come in, sorry, sorry.
777
00:55:32,041 --> 00:55:34,737
It's so crowded.
It's just so crowded.
778
00:55:35,578 --> 00:55:37,170
Harvey, man!
779
00:55:42,452 --> 00:55:43,544
Scotty!
780
00:55:45,188 --> 00:55:47,986
Is this all for you, Harvey?
Are you this famous, baby?
781
00:55:48,057 --> 00:55:50,025
No, we do this all the time.
You like it?
782
00:55:50,093 --> 00:55:51,151
Yeah.
783
00:55:51,227 --> 00:55:54,993
The new Mrs. Milk.
I give it a week.
784
00:55:55,064 --> 00:55:59,296
Gordon Lau, Carol Ruth Silver. It's the
most liberal board in years. In history!
785
00:55:59,969 --> 00:56:01,800
What about Dan White?
Did he win?
786
00:56:01,871 --> 00:56:04,169
We'll deal with him tomorrow. Oh, God.
787
00:56:16,452 --> 00:56:19,250
Does this mean,
as many straights are concerned,
788
00:56:19,322 --> 00:56:22,155
maybe the gays are taking
over San Francisco?
789
00:56:22,225 --> 00:56:25,422
Are you going to be a
supervisor for all the people?
790
00:56:25,495 --> 00:56:27,895
Well, I have to be. That's
what I was elected for.
791
00:56:27,964 --> 00:56:30,558
I have to be there to
open for the dialogue,
792
00:56:30,633 --> 00:56:33,602
for the sensitivities of all
people and all their problems.
793
00:56:33,669 --> 00:56:36,502
The problems that affect
this city, affect us all.
794
00:56:37,140 --> 00:56:38,630
Okay, well,
congratulations.
795
00:56:38,708 --> 00:56:41,199
Thank you.
Thank you, San Francisco!
796
00:56:43,146 --> 00:56:44,477
And that's Harvey Milk,
797
00:56:44,547 --> 00:56:47,482
celebrating his election to the
San Francisco Board of Supervisors.
798
00:56:47,550 --> 00:56:49,848
For Channel Five news,
I'm Mary Dilts.
799
00:56:52,288 --> 00:56:56,589
I, Harvey Milk,
do solemnly swear...
800
00:56:56,659 --> 00:57:03,457
That I will support and defend
the Constitution of the United States...
801
00:57:03,533 --> 00:57:07,230
During such time as I
hold the office of supervisor,
802
00:57:07,303 --> 00:57:10,170
City and County
of San Francisco.
803
00:57:10,239 --> 00:57:13,902
During such time as I hold
the office of supervisor,
804
00:57:13,976 --> 00:57:16,570
City and County
of San Francisco.
805
00:57:16,646 --> 00:57:18,807
Congratulations, Harvey.
Thank you, Mayor.
806
00:57:22,018 --> 00:57:26,853
Anita Bryant said that it was gay people
that brought the drought to California.
807
00:57:27,557 --> 00:57:31,516
Well, it looks to me as though
it's finally started raining.
808
00:57:32,795 --> 00:57:34,422
This will be
the first time in many years
809
00:57:34,497 --> 00:57:37,466
that we've seen so many new
faces on the Board of Supervisors.
810
00:57:37,533 --> 00:57:40,525
Do you think such diversity
will cripple the board?
811
00:57:40,603 --> 00:57:43,902
Well, the name of the game is
six votes to get anything passed.
812
00:57:43,973 --> 00:57:45,463
So, whether you like it or not,
813
00:57:45,541 --> 00:57:47,702
Dan and I are
in bed together.
814
00:57:47,777 --> 00:57:49,267
Politically speaking.
815
00:57:49,679 --> 00:57:51,840
You see, I've assured
Harvey here that, uh,
816
00:57:51,914 --> 00:57:54,439
my brochure's comments
about social deviants
817
00:57:54,517 --> 00:57:57,452
referred more to junkies
than to his people.
818
00:57:57,520 --> 00:57:59,647
See, I'm about to
have my first child
819
00:57:59,722 --> 00:58:03,488
and I had to make sure that this city
remains a decent place to raise him.
820
00:58:04,627 --> 00:58:07,425
Well, thank you so much
for coming on the show, gentlemen,
821
00:58:07,497 --> 00:58:09,124
and we'll see what happens.
822
00:58:09,198 --> 00:58:10,426
HARVEY/ That's it?
It's over? We're finished?
823
00:58:10,500 --> 00:58:11,558
Yes.
824
00:58:11,634 --> 00:58:13,568
That was quick.
Thank you.
825
00:58:14,136 --> 00:58:15,831
How long were
you a fireman, Dan?
826
00:58:15,905 --> 00:58:17,304
A couple of years.
827
00:58:17,373 --> 00:58:19,398
And you were a police
officer before that?
828
00:58:19,475 --> 00:58:21,238
You got something
against cops, Harv?
829
00:58:21,310 --> 00:58:23,540
No, no. They tend
to against me though.
830
00:58:23,613 --> 00:58:26,047
But firefighters,
they're the true heroes.
831
00:58:26,115 --> 00:58:28,879
They supported me on my last
campaign. I fully support them.
832
00:58:28,951 --> 00:58:30,612
I appreciate that.
833
00:58:30,686 --> 00:58:32,654
I meant what I said.
I'd like to work together.
834
00:58:32,722 --> 00:58:34,349
Me, too.
I'll see you later.
835
00:58:34,423 --> 00:58:35,412
Okay.
836
00:58:48,938 --> 00:58:52,032
Oh. What do you think of my new theater?
837
00:58:52,108 --> 00:58:53,575
A bit over the top.
838
00:58:55,778 --> 00:58:57,575
You're
wearing a suit?
839
00:58:57,647 --> 00:58:58,978
I got it
from a friend.
840
00:58:59,048 --> 00:59:00,242
No, no, no, no.
841
00:59:00,316 --> 00:59:03,945
Anytime you come here, I want you
to wear the tightest jeans possible.
842
00:59:04,020 --> 00:59:07,046
Never blend in. And
never take the elevator.
843
00:59:07,123 --> 00:59:08,385
Always use
the stairs.
844
00:59:08,457 --> 00:59:13,451
You can make such a grand
entrance by taking these stairs.
845
00:59:13,829 --> 00:59:15,023
Hello.
846
00:59:15,565 --> 00:59:17,089
Carol, friend.
847
00:59:18,534 --> 00:59:19,967
Dan White.
848
00:59:22,071 --> 00:59:23,299
Hello, Dianne.
849
00:59:25,374 --> 00:59:27,604
And then this is
Gordon Lau's office.
850
00:59:27,677 --> 00:59:29,235
Anne, can you set Cleve up on mail?
851
00:59:29,312 --> 00:59:30,472
Will do.
852
00:59:32,148 --> 00:59:33,547
Okay,
853
00:59:33,616 --> 00:59:35,811
first order of business
to come out of this office
854
00:59:35,885 --> 00:59:37,580
is a citywide
Gay Rights Ordinance,
855
00:59:37,653 --> 00:59:40,383
just like the one that Anita
shot down in Dade County.
856
00:59:40,456 --> 00:59:41,616
What do you think,
Lotus Blossom?
857
00:59:41,691 --> 00:59:43,818
I think it's good.
It's not great.
858
00:59:43,893 --> 00:59:47,886
Okay, so make it brilliant. We want
Anita's attention here in San Francisco.
859
00:59:47,964 --> 00:59:50,057
I want her to bring her fight to us.
860
00:59:50,132 --> 00:59:53,158
We need a unanimous
vote, we need headlines.
861
00:59:53,235 --> 00:59:54,862
Dan White is not
gonna vote for this.
862
00:59:54,937 --> 00:59:56,165
Dan White will be fine.
863
00:59:56,238 --> 00:59:58,502
Dan White is just
uneducated. We'll teach him.
864
00:59:58,574 --> 01:00:01,134
Hey, Harv,
committee meets at 9:30.
865
01:00:01,544 --> 01:00:02,670
Hey, you guys.
866
01:00:02,745 --> 01:00:05,509
Say, did you get the invitation
to my son's christening?
867
01:00:05,581 --> 01:00:07,378
I invited a few of
the other Supes, too.
868
01:00:07,450 --> 01:00:09,213
Oh, I'll be there.
869
01:00:09,285 --> 01:00:11,082
Great! Thanks.
870
01:00:12,021 --> 01:00:13,989
Did he hear you?
What the fuck!
871
01:00:14,056 --> 01:00:15,921
Are you going?
872
01:00:15,992 --> 01:00:19,189
I would let him christen me if it means
he's gonna vote for the Gay Rights Ordinance.
873
01:00:19,261 --> 01:00:21,889
We need allies.
We need everyone.
874
01:00:22,598 --> 01:00:24,088
I don't think
he heard you.
875
01:00:24,166 --> 01:00:25,895
Is it just me
or is he cute?
876
01:00:48,491 --> 01:00:49,651
Jack?
877
01:00:50,092 --> 01:00:53,994
Welcome home, Harvey.
I hope you're hungry.
878
01:00:54,430 --> 01:00:57,456
I just know how to cook one
thing, but I make it good.
879
01:00:58,701 --> 01:01:00,066
Come.
880
01:01:00,136 --> 01:01:01,967
Jack,
did you break in?
881
01:01:02,038 --> 01:01:05,474
No, no, no. I asked the little
boy downstairs to let me in.
882
01:01:05,541 --> 01:01:06,735
Danny?
Yeah.
883
01:01:06,809 --> 01:01:09,539
He wouldn't let me,
so I came in this way.
884
01:01:10,813 --> 01:01:13,407
You know, your friends aren't
very nice to me, Harvey.
885
01:01:13,482 --> 01:01:15,143
I have a Town Hall
meeting tonight.
886
01:01:15,217 --> 01:01:19,153
Sit down. Come, five minutes.
That's it. Come, please.
887
01:01:20,589 --> 01:01:22,216
There you go.
888
01:01:23,192 --> 01:01:26,025
I watched TV here
today, all day.
889
01:01:26,095 --> 01:01:27,926
I saw All My Children.
890
01:01:29,498 --> 01:01:32,661
And they killed Margo. But I
knew it was going to happen.
891
01:01:34,303 --> 01:01:37,534
You know, they always try and
trick you but it never works.
892
01:01:38,708 --> 01:01:40,505
You always
see it coming.
893
01:01:40,576 --> 01:01:45,707
What? Killing the blonde?
Yeah, I'm good with that.
894
01:01:50,586 --> 01:01:52,144
Jack.
What?
895
01:01:52,421 --> 01:01:54,150
If I make you a key,
896
01:01:55,424 --> 01:01:57,654
will you promise never
to break in again?
897
01:01:59,328 --> 01:02:00,795
That's right.
898
01:02:11,741 --> 01:02:15,768
Is it your will that Charles should
be baptized in the faith of the church
899
01:02:15,845 --> 01:02:17,710
which we have all
professed with you?
900
01:02:17,780 --> 01:02:19,304
It is.
It is.
901
01:02:23,185 --> 01:02:26,416
Charles, I baptize you
in the name of the Father
902
01:02:26,489 --> 01:02:29,856
and of the Son and
of the Holy Spirit.
903
01:02:36,465 --> 01:02:39,628
God, the father of our Lord Jesus
Christ has freed you from sin...
904
01:02:39,702 --> 01:02:41,966
I'm proposing
a citywide ordinance
905
01:02:42,037 --> 01:02:44,835
which would ensure that any
person who already has a job
906
01:02:44,907 --> 01:02:47,740
cannot be fired on the
basis of sexual orientation.
907
01:02:48,711 --> 01:02:51,703
I don't think my constituents
would favor that, Harvey.
908
01:02:54,483 --> 01:02:57,179
Is there anyone else here
from the board today, Dan?
909
01:02:58,087 --> 01:03:00,351
You're the only one
who showed, I think.
910
01:03:00,422 --> 01:03:01,548
Were you
christened here?
911
01:03:01,624 --> 01:03:04,149
I was. Right here, same parish.
912
01:03:04,226 --> 01:03:07,252
My grandma immigrated here when
this was an Irish Catholic city,
913
01:03:07,329 --> 01:03:09,024
the City of Saint Francis.
914
01:03:09,799 --> 01:03:11,391
But a lot's changed here
since then, you know.
915
01:03:11,467 --> 01:03:13,992
You're more like one
of us now, an outsider.
916
01:03:14,603 --> 01:03:17,470
You're not like most
homosexuals, are you, Harvey?
917
01:03:18,374 --> 01:03:20,842
Do you know a lot
of homosexuals, Dan?
918
01:03:23,546 --> 01:03:27,505
Hey, where do you stand
on the Psychiatric Center
919
01:03:27,583 --> 01:03:29,915
that the city's been
pushing into my district?
920
01:03:30,486 --> 01:03:32,545
Well, I'd have
to study it...
921
01:03:32,621 --> 01:03:36,990
It was a key piece on my platform.
Getting it out of my district.
922
01:03:37,059 --> 01:03:39,323
It only attracts arsonists, rapists,
that sort of thing, you know.
923
01:03:39,395 --> 01:03:40,692
A campaign promise.
924
01:03:40,763 --> 01:03:42,492
A big one.
Sure.
925
01:03:44,567 --> 01:03:48,628
What do you say we watch out for each
other's interests? I would really like that.
926
01:03:48,704 --> 01:03:50,831
I'd like that too, Dan.
Good.
927
01:03:51,473 --> 01:03:53,805
Sorry, hon, we just
slipped into some shop talk.
928
01:03:53,876 --> 01:03:56,003
The Gay Rights Ordinance.
My fault.
929
01:03:56,412 --> 01:03:58,676
Seems like an inappropriate
subject, don't you think?
930
01:03:58,747 --> 01:04:01,147
Oh, don't knock it
till you've tried it.
931
01:04:02,585 --> 01:04:06,681
Hello. Oh, oh, but you had
such a beautiful christening.
932
01:04:06,755 --> 01:04:08,814
Supervisors Silver and
Lau are asking you to vote
933
01:04:08,891 --> 01:04:10,882
to keep this Psychiatric
Center in Dan's district.
934
01:04:10,960 --> 01:04:13,793
It'll go down six to five
if you vote to get rid of it.
935
01:04:13,863 --> 01:04:15,296
It's a youth
campus, Harvey.
936
01:04:15,364 --> 01:04:17,594
And these are kids that would
be displaced from families.
937
01:04:17,666 --> 01:04:19,827
I can't just dump Dan. He's
got nothing going for him.
938
01:04:19,902 --> 01:04:21,028
No friends...
939
01:04:21,103 --> 01:04:24,504
Oh, God, oh, God! Here we go,
here we go. Harvey to the rescue.
940
01:04:24,573 --> 01:04:26,871
Isn't it enough that we
have to put up with Jack?
941
01:04:26,942 --> 01:04:29,877
All right, lay off. He
registered 120 voters last week.
942
01:04:29,945 --> 01:04:31,378
Okay, so do any
of your volunteers,
943
01:04:31,447 --> 01:04:33,642
but you don't go and
make them all first lady.
944
01:04:33,716 --> 01:04:36,412
Harvey, what does
Dan White do for you?
945
01:04:36,485 --> 01:04:38,510
Really, politically.
946
01:04:39,521 --> 01:04:42,285
He intrigues me.
I think he may be one of us.
947
01:04:42,358 --> 01:04:43,518
No, no.
948
01:04:43,592 --> 01:04:45,253
It's just a theory.
949
01:04:45,327 --> 01:04:46,794
You just
think he's cute.
950
01:04:46,862 --> 01:04:50,093
No, no. I know what it's
like to live that life.
951
01:04:50,165 --> 01:04:53,896
That lie. I can see it in Dan's
eyes. That fear, the pressure.
952
01:05:00,509 --> 01:05:02,477
Good or bad?
Not great.
953
01:05:03,012 --> 01:05:07,346
State Senator John Briggs is Anita
Bryant's go-to guy in California for sure.
954
01:05:07,883 --> 01:05:10,909
He filed a petition for
a statewide referendum
955
01:05:10,986 --> 01:05:14,012
to fire all gay teachers
and anyone who supports them.
956
01:05:14,790 --> 01:05:16,883
How many signatures does he
need to get on the ballot?
957
01:05:16,959 --> 01:05:21,453
Oh, whatever. He can get them in two
Sundays at church in Orange fucking County.
958
01:05:24,433 --> 01:05:27,891
So, this means that
the fight is coming here,
959
01:05:29,171 --> 01:05:31,503
where we can do
something about it.
960
01:05:32,174 --> 01:05:34,369
The issue in
California is whether school boards
961
01:05:34,443 --> 01:05:37,742
should be allowed to fire
teachers who are known homosexuals.
962
01:05:37,813 --> 01:05:39,747
The courts have
ruled they cannot.
963
01:05:39,815 --> 01:05:43,808
Boards must prove a teacher's
homosexuality adversely affects children
964
01:05:43,886 --> 01:05:46,184
and makes them unfit
for the classroom.
965
01:05:46,255 --> 01:05:48,746
State Senator John Briggs
wants to change that.
966
01:05:48,824 --> 01:05:54,319
My proposition promises to protect our
children from these gay perverts and...
967
01:05:55,998 --> 01:05:59,798
These gay perverts and pedophiles
who recruit our children
968
01:05:59,868 --> 01:06:03,167
to participate in their
deviant lifestyle,
969
01:06:03,238 --> 01:06:06,264
including the ones who do
it in our public schools.
970
01:06:06,342 --> 01:06:10,506
The time has come
for us to root them out.
971
01:06:11,714 --> 01:06:13,944
How are you going to
determine who's homosexual?
972
01:06:14,016 --> 01:06:15,313
I'm sorry, sir, what?
973
01:06:15,384 --> 01:06:17,545
How are you going to
determine who's homosexual?
974
01:06:17,619 --> 01:06:20,645
Sir, my bill has procedures
for identifying homosexuals.
975
01:06:20,723 --> 01:06:23,521
Oh, yeah, how? Will you be
sucking them off, Briggs?
976
01:06:23,592 --> 01:06:26,891
Excuse me. You know what,
you can argue with me,
977
01:06:27,663 --> 01:06:29,654
you cannot
argue with God.
978
01:06:35,604 --> 01:06:37,196
Harvey, I can't believe it.
979
01:06:37,272 --> 01:06:40,571
No, he wants my job. You
want my job, you prick!
980
01:06:40,642 --> 01:06:43,770
Sir, you were here when
State Senator Briggs was on the steps.
981
01:06:43,846 --> 01:06:45,245
What do you
think about that?
982
01:06:45,314 --> 01:06:49,410
Well, I think what you saw, you saw some
very committed opposition to his proposition.
983
01:06:49,485 --> 01:06:51,715
And I think that's
only going to continue.
984
01:06:51,787 --> 01:06:54,415
People have very emotional
reactions to this.
985
01:06:54,490 --> 01:06:56,048
This is their lives
that are on the line.
986
01:06:56,125 --> 01:06:58,184
What's going to happen?
987
01:06:58,260 --> 01:07:00,956
Well, look what
happened in Germany.
988
01:07:01,030 --> 01:07:04,659
I mean, Anita Bryant has already said that
the Jews and Muslims are going to hell.
989
01:07:04,733 --> 01:07:07,167
So, you know she
has a shopping list.
990
01:07:07,236 --> 01:07:10,262
And we are not going to let the
John Briggs' or the Anita Bryants
991
01:07:10,339 --> 01:07:12,307
legislate bigotry
in this state.
992
01:07:16,945 --> 01:07:19,175
Hello, Harvey,
running late?
993
01:07:19,248 --> 01:07:21,614
Your boyfriend
is in the closet.
994
01:07:21,683 --> 01:07:23,014
Excuse me, David.
995
01:07:23,085 --> 01:07:26,418
The Latino has locked himself
in the closet upstairs.
996
01:07:26,488 --> 01:07:28,251
Harvey, Harvey,
Phil Burton is here.
997
01:07:28,323 --> 01:07:30,382
He's likely the next
Speaker of the House
998
01:07:30,459 --> 01:07:33,826
and a very important ally
against Proposition 6.
999
01:07:33,896 --> 01:07:35,887
So, please,
no scenes, all right?
1000
01:07:39,268 --> 01:07:41,259
You're right. I was late by 20 minutes.
1001
01:07:41,336 --> 01:07:42,394
So come on out, Jack.
1002
01:07:42,471 --> 01:07:46,305
Who were you with? Scott? Or with
a new boy you were trying to save?
1003
01:07:46,375 --> 01:07:49,173
I was at work. Come on out, sweet pea.
1004
01:07:49,244 --> 01:07:50,905
You embarrassed me,
Harvey.
1005
01:07:50,979 --> 01:07:53,880
I didn't know anyone down
there and they're bad people.
1006
01:07:55,517 --> 01:07:57,747
I just want to go, okay?
1007
01:07:57,820 --> 01:07:59,515
Then you should go home.
1008
01:08:00,722 --> 01:08:03,714
No, I want to stay.
I want to stay here.
1009
01:08:04,293 --> 01:08:07,160
So, you go away, okay?
Go away!
1010
01:08:12,034 --> 01:08:15,094
The Briggs initiative is polling
at 75% for approval statewide.
1011
01:08:15,170 --> 01:08:18,503
80% in other polls. Some even
have us losing San Francisco.
1012
01:08:18,574 --> 01:08:21,099
We deceive people into
thinking we can beat this,
1013
01:08:21,176 --> 01:08:23,474
we'll have riots and only
increase the backlash.
1014
01:08:23,545 --> 01:08:24,978
That's a good point, David.
1015
01:08:25,047 --> 01:08:28,414
Maybe we should just roll over and make
it easier for Briggs to fuck us in the ass.
1016
01:08:28,484 --> 01:08:30,714
We're taking this very
seriously in my office.
1017
01:08:30,786 --> 01:08:33,846
We want to send one of these to every
home in California and that takes money.
1018
01:08:33,922 --> 01:08:36,390
"Proposition 6 is
an affront to human rights.
1019
01:08:36,458 --> 01:08:40,656
"An invasion of the state into the
private lives of California citizens. ' '
1020
01:08:41,063 --> 01:08:43,896
Without a single mention of the
word gay on the entire flyer.
1021
01:08:43,966 --> 01:08:45,490
By design, Harvey.
1022
01:08:45,567 --> 01:08:47,467
Corey Wares is an out
gay teacher... Rick...
1023
01:08:47,536 --> 01:08:50,300
With the heat bearing down
on your movement right now,
1024
01:08:50,372 --> 01:08:53,535
we feel it's best to dodge the gay
bullet. Go for the human rights angle.
1025
01:08:53,609 --> 01:08:57,340
People need to know who it
is that's being affected.
1026
01:08:57,412 --> 01:09:00,006
You need at least one
old queer on this flyer.
1027
01:09:00,082 --> 01:09:01,982
Excuse me, yeah. Maybe you
should volunteer for that, David.
1028
01:09:02,050 --> 01:09:04,541
This is shit. This is
shit and masturbation.
1029
01:09:04,620 --> 01:09:07,521
It's just a coward's response
to a dangerous threat.
1030
01:09:16,765 --> 01:09:18,699
Come on, Jack.
It's time to go.
1031
01:09:19,101 --> 01:09:21,160
Get everyone
together at your place.
1032
01:09:21,236 --> 01:09:24,069
I want young people, I want
women, I want fresh heads.
1033
01:09:24,139 --> 01:09:27,870
Get organizers and fighters,
not politicians. Come on, Jack.
1034
01:09:27,943 --> 01:09:30,503
What about S-C-O-T-T?
1035
01:09:31,313 --> 01:09:32,439
Yeah.
1036
01:09:32,781 --> 01:09:34,510
Jack, come on.
1037
01:09:35,083 --> 01:09:36,141
We have to
fight the machine.
1038
01:09:36,218 --> 01:09:38,686
They don't want to change,
they want to stay in the past.
1039
01:09:38,754 --> 01:09:40,381
Stop and be
realistic about it.
1040
01:09:40,455 --> 01:09:44,414
Realistic? We're not interested in
staying in the closet, losing Prop 6.
1041
01:09:44,493 --> 01:09:46,927
We're all on the same side,
man, we're on the same side.
1042
01:09:48,330 --> 01:09:51,561
Hey, is anybody gonna pay the
pizza guy or we're just gonna stare?
1043
01:09:51,633 --> 01:09:53,260
How could
we not stare?
1044
01:09:54,803 --> 01:09:56,430
Here, put out your hand.
1045
01:09:58,140 --> 01:10:01,166
You are shameless.
You are shameless.
1046
01:10:01,243 --> 01:10:03,438
I mean, I'm proud of you
but you are hysterical.
1047
01:10:03,512 --> 01:10:04,501
Hey.
1048
01:10:11,019 --> 01:10:13,214
We're going to
convince the 90%
1049
01:10:14,389 --> 01:10:16,687
to give a shit
about us 10%.
1050
01:10:16,758 --> 01:10:19,852
We have to let them
know who we are.
1051
01:10:21,463 --> 01:10:24,227
Everybody has to come out.
1052
01:10:24,299 --> 01:10:27,166
Across the entire state,
no matter where they live.
1053
01:10:27,636 --> 01:10:29,194
Come out, come out,
wherever you are.
1054
01:10:29,271 --> 01:10:32,707
If we're going to beat Prop 6,
we tell all of them to come out.
1055
01:10:32,774 --> 01:10:36,870
Every gay lawyer, teacher,
doctor, dog catcher.
1056
01:10:36,945 --> 01:10:38,970
We have to
leave the ghetto.
1057
01:10:39,047 --> 01:10:44,007
We have to let all those people out
there know that they know one of us.
1058
01:10:44,086 --> 01:10:46,316
And if somebody doesn't want
to step out of the closet,
1059
01:10:46,388 --> 01:10:48,356
we open the door for them.
1060
01:10:48,423 --> 01:10:49,583
Jesus.
1061
01:10:49,658 --> 01:10:51,990
The whole state isn't
San Francisco, Harvey.
1062
01:10:52,060 --> 01:10:53,322
Clearly, Scott.
1063
01:10:53,395 --> 01:10:54,987
Harvey, that could
be really, really dangerous.
1064
01:10:55,063 --> 01:10:57,293
I mean, there's such a
thing as a right to privacy.
1065
01:10:57,366 --> 01:10:58,890
Privacy.
1066
01:10:59,968 --> 01:11:01,959
In this movement,
at this time,
1067
01:11:02,037 --> 01:11:06,235
I'm not saying this as a
supervisor, privacy is the enemy.
1068
01:11:07,542 --> 01:11:12,275
And if you want real political
power, if that's what you want,
1069
01:11:12,347 --> 01:11:14,941
try telling the truth
for a change.
1070
01:11:15,017 --> 01:11:16,951
All right? Starting here.
1071
01:11:17,019 --> 01:11:20,079
If there's anyone in
this room, right now,
1072
01:11:21,089 --> 01:11:23,023
who hasn't told
their families,
1073
01:11:23,091 --> 01:11:25,423
their friends,
their employers,
1074
01:11:26,561 --> 01:11:27,994
do it now.
1075
01:11:28,730 --> 01:11:31,062
My folks know already.
1076
01:11:33,001 --> 01:11:35,026
My dad doesn't know yet.
1077
01:11:39,274 --> 01:11:41,401
They vote for us
two to one.
1078
01:11:42,144 --> 01:11:44,510
If they know,
they know one of us.
1079
01:11:55,157 --> 01:11:57,352
As much as I'm sure
you'd all like to watch,
1080
01:11:57,426 --> 01:11:59,724
I don't think
that's such a good idea.
1081
01:12:02,164 --> 01:12:06,533
Cleve, could you show Dick where there's
a phone where he could speak in private?
1082
01:12:07,636 --> 01:12:09,729
There's
one in the bedroom.
1083
01:12:24,686 --> 01:12:29,885
I just found myself clawing over
him, literally running to get him.
1084
01:12:29,958 --> 01:12:31,789
Oh, good night.
Good night.
1085
01:12:31,860 --> 01:12:33,452
Ciao, gang.
Sleep tight.
1086
01:12:33,528 --> 01:12:36,224
I thought
you got out of politics.
1087
01:12:36,298 --> 01:12:39,096
Politics.
Not the movement.
1088
01:12:39,968 --> 01:12:41,435
What the hell
was that in there?
1089
01:12:41,503 --> 01:12:43,061
The movement needs people to be upfront.
1090
01:12:43,138 --> 01:12:44,969
Why were you
fighting me in there?
1091
01:12:45,040 --> 01:12:48,999
Those are kids in there. You're
asking them to lose their families.
1092
01:12:50,078 --> 01:12:52,774
If their families don't
love them for who they are,
1093
01:12:52,848 --> 01:12:55,180
who they really are, then
they should lose them.
1094
01:12:55,250 --> 01:12:57,013
That's fucking insane.
1095
01:12:57,085 --> 01:12:59,485
You were the biggest
closet case in New York.
1096
01:12:59,554 --> 01:13:02,079
You asked me and all your
boyfriends to keep our traps shut.
1097
01:13:02,157 --> 01:13:03,715
I mean, you're being the hypocrite.
1098
01:13:03,792 --> 01:13:07,421
My parents are gone. My brother
knew. I'm sure they knew.
1099
01:13:08,230 --> 01:13:12,667
How many times did I have
to listen to calls to Mom,
1100
01:13:12,734 --> 01:13:14,793
where you
denied my existence?
1101
01:13:14,870 --> 01:13:18,033
And you want to be normal like
anybody. More than anybody.
1102
01:13:21,777 --> 01:13:23,972
Who's he?
You live together?
1103
01:13:25,147 --> 01:13:26,705
Someone I'm seeing.
1104
01:13:27,449 --> 01:13:29,644
Keeps me out of
trouble, out of the bars.
1105
01:13:31,319 --> 01:13:32,980
I miss you.
1106
01:13:33,789 --> 01:13:35,222
Harvey,
1107
01:13:36,525 --> 01:13:37,958
what's that about?
1108
01:13:38,026 --> 01:13:39,926
Harvey.
1109
01:13:41,029 --> 01:13:42,587
He needs me.
1110
01:13:52,007 --> 01:13:56,307
If there is an air of dishonesty
with this board and its members,
1111
01:13:56,378 --> 01:13:57,572
that is repugnant...
1112
01:13:57,646 --> 01:14:00,638
I have told no lies today or
to Supervisor White in the past.
1113
01:14:00,715 --> 01:14:02,148
Supervisor Milk,
you will come to order.
1114
01:14:02,217 --> 01:14:04,811
I would like it
noted that I never promised
1115
01:14:04,886 --> 01:14:06,717
to back moving any
mental health centers.
1116
01:14:06,788 --> 01:14:10,849
And that with great respect to Supervisor
White, I would like his remarks stricken.
1117
01:14:10,926 --> 01:14:15,158
Duly noted. We will take a 10 minute
recess before recording the vote.
1118
01:14:16,965 --> 01:14:18,956
Thank you, Harvey.
1119
01:14:20,068 --> 01:14:23,629
Can I have a moment with
Harvey? Alone, please, Carol?
1120
01:14:28,777 --> 01:14:31,644
Why? Why are you
turning on me like this?
1121
01:14:31,713 --> 01:14:33,647
At the last minute?
What did I do?
1122
01:14:33,715 --> 01:14:34,807
I never
got the details.
1123
01:14:34,883 --> 01:14:37,408
Dan, if you want me to help
you draft another version of it
1124
01:14:37,486 --> 01:14:41,923
that doesn't shanghai every troubled
kid in your area, I'll be happy to.
1125
01:14:41,990 --> 01:14:46,757
Harvey, I can't go back to my family,
to my folks, to my district without this.
1126
01:14:46,828 --> 01:14:48,819
Don't do this. Well, I have
a lot of pressure on me.
1127
01:14:48,897 --> 01:14:50,455
So, you're just
stringing me along
1128
01:14:50,532 --> 01:14:51,999
and then you're just gonna throw
me to the wolves, is that it?
1129
01:14:52,067 --> 01:14:53,227
Dan, you only need one more vote.
1130
01:14:53,301 --> 01:14:55,997
You've got five other supervisors
you can convince besides me.
1131
01:14:56,071 --> 01:14:59,063
I'm gonna vote against your queer law
and I'm gonna get Quentin against it, too.
1132
01:14:59,140 --> 01:15:01,768
Oh, it's gonna pass anyway and you
can't keep alienating yourself here, Dan.
1133
01:15:01,843 --> 01:15:05,335
I gave you a chance, Harvey, okay?
I gave you a chance and you blew it!
1134
01:15:07,115 --> 01:15:08,639
You blew it.
1135
01:15:13,788 --> 01:15:16,018
The city council in
St. Paul, Minnesota
1136
01:15:16,091 --> 01:15:18,525
passed a law guaranteeing,
among other things,
1137
01:15:18,593 --> 01:15:21,721
equal rights in housing,
employment and education,
1138
01:15:21,796 --> 01:15:23,991
regardless of
sexual preference.
1139
01:15:24,065 --> 01:15:26,533
Now, voters in that city have
made their disapproval clear.
1140
01:15:26,601 --> 01:15:30,970
Homosexuality is a question facing
the voters of Eugene, Oregon tomorrow.
1141
01:15:31,039 --> 01:15:33,701
A referendum to repeal
gay rights protection.
1142
01:15:34,075 --> 01:15:39,240
So, while we were fighting
Proposition 6 and Briggs in California,
1143
01:15:40,382 --> 01:15:42,543
I needed to put
a show on the road.
1144
01:15:43,285 --> 01:15:46,618
And our next stop,
Wichita, Kansas.
1145
01:15:46,688 --> 01:15:50,351
Voters of Wichita, Kansas
have overwhelmingly repealed
1146
01:15:50,425 --> 01:15:52,586
a city law
protecting homosexuals
1147
01:15:52,661 --> 01:15:55,152
against discrimination
in jobs and housing.
1148
01:15:55,230 --> 01:15:57,494
Only two hours
after the polls closed,
1149
01:15:57,566 --> 01:16:01,900
the church organization that started the
repeal action was celebrating victory.
1150
01:16:06,107 --> 01:16:07,972
Hey, Lawrence, it's Cleve.
1151
01:16:08,043 --> 01:16:09,305
Hey, we're losing Wichita.
1152
01:16:09,377 --> 01:16:12,574
So rally tonight sundown
at Market and Castro, okay?
1153
01:16:12,647 --> 01:16:13,978
Okay, bye.
1154
01:16:16,284 --> 01:16:17,273
Hello?
1155
01:16:28,797 --> 01:16:32,699
Jerry. Hey,
we're losing Wichita...
1156
01:16:42,877 --> 01:16:44,367
They're moving.
I don't know where.
1157
01:16:44,446 --> 01:16:46,846
Did Jim call the press? You
get out there with your camera.
1158
01:16:46,915 --> 01:16:49,884
Press is covered. But we
don't have a permit to march.
1159
01:16:51,252 --> 01:16:52,378
Hurry up.
1160
01:16:59,260 --> 01:17:03,697
When I got Coors beer out of the
bars, the union boys gave me this.
1161
01:17:03,765 --> 01:17:05,756
I want you
to take it now.
1162
01:17:06,468 --> 01:17:08,026
What am I supposed
to do with this?
1163
01:17:08,103 --> 01:17:09,764
You're an activist now,
you're gonna march them.
1164
01:17:09,838 --> 01:17:12,170
I want you to march them right up
to the front doors of City Hall.
1165
01:17:12,240 --> 01:17:14,834
When things start
to look really bad,
1166
01:17:14,909 --> 01:17:19,073
the city's first gay supervisor
will come out and play peacemaker.
1167
01:17:20,849 --> 01:17:22,111
Do it with me.
1168
01:17:31,359 --> 01:17:32,519
Hello.
1169
01:17:33,695 --> 01:17:36,061
Forty years ago, tonight,
1170
01:17:36,131 --> 01:17:41,535
the gay citizens of Germany found
out they no longer had civil rights.
1171
01:17:44,439 --> 01:17:49,069
Tomorrow morning, the gay citizens
of Wichita will also awaken
1172
01:17:49,144 --> 01:17:53,171
to find that they too
have lost their civil rights!
1173
01:17:53,248 --> 01:17:57,685
You have whistles. You use
them when we have been attacked.
1174
01:17:58,153 --> 01:17:59,848
Tonight we have been attacked.
1175
01:17:59,921 --> 01:18:02,116
Come on, the crowd
is leaving without us!
1176
01:18:02,190 --> 01:18:03,680
Shit!
1177
01:18:29,184 --> 01:18:31,516
Get the press
to the marquee.
1178
01:18:31,586 --> 01:18:34,054
Move left! Move left!
1179
01:18:34,122 --> 01:18:36,181
What are you doing? What are
you doing? Where's Harvey?
1180
01:18:36,257 --> 01:18:38,691
We're shutting down traffic,
both directions.
1181
01:18:38,760 --> 01:18:39,954
Cameras are rolling.
1182
01:18:40,028 --> 01:18:42,189
Okay, disconnect
the power arm!
1183
01:18:58,513 --> 01:19:05,143
Civil rights or civil
war! Gay rights now!
1184
01:19:16,131 --> 01:19:19,794
Civil rights
or civil war! Gay rights now!
1185
01:19:19,868 --> 01:19:26,998
Civil rights or civil war!
Gay rights now!
1186
01:19:27,075 --> 01:19:28,337
Anita!
1187
01:19:28,409 --> 01:19:32,539
Anita, you're a liar!
We'll set your hair on fire!
1188
01:19:32,614 --> 01:19:34,479
Anita, you're a liar!
1189
01:19:34,549 --> 01:19:41,416
Anita, you're a liar!
We'll set your hair on fire!
1190
01:20:07,849 --> 01:20:10,283
Okay, okay!
1191
01:20:11,686 --> 01:20:14,883
My name is Harvey Milk
and I'm here to recruit you.
1192
01:20:16,991 --> 01:20:20,290
They're calling it
a successful mediation.
1193
01:20:20,361 --> 01:20:24,525
You're a goddamn hero. Fuck,
we came this close to a riot.
1194
01:20:26,668 --> 01:20:28,135
Next time
put down the note cards.
1195
01:20:28,203 --> 01:20:32,162
You got to keep talking into that bullhorn
and tell them what they're feeling.
1196
01:20:32,240 --> 01:20:35,266
Oh, you're just jealous
it wasn't you out there.
1197
01:20:35,343 --> 01:20:37,811
We're losing
Proposition 6 by 60%,
1198
01:20:37,879 --> 01:20:39,847
and you're over there
celebrating a riot.
1199
01:20:39,914 --> 01:20:41,882
What we need is exposure.
1200
01:20:41,950 --> 01:20:43,474
If we're gonna
beat this thing,
1201
01:20:43,551 --> 01:20:45,781
we got to get Briggs
to acknowledge it.
1202
01:20:45,854 --> 01:20:49,290
Every paper's calling
Prop 6 the main event now.
1203
01:20:49,357 --> 01:20:52,918
We lose this, we'll have
anti-gay laws in all 50 states,
1204
01:20:52,994 --> 01:20:55,258
and Briggs won't answer our
calls for a public debate.
1205
01:20:55,330 --> 01:20:56,991
He's trying
to ignore us to death.
1206
01:20:57,065 --> 01:20:59,192
We need
something populist.
1207
01:21:00,935 --> 01:21:03,426
What's the number one
problem in this city?
1208
01:21:03,504 --> 01:21:05,995
The fucking piss
smell in the tenderloin.
1209
01:21:06,074 --> 01:21:07,234
Close.
1210
01:21:07,308 --> 01:21:08,673
Dog shit.
1211
01:21:09,711 --> 01:21:12,271
If you clean up the dog shit in
this town, you're the next mayor.
1212
01:21:12,347 --> 01:21:14,372
Supervisor Milk
took to the grassy lawn
1213
01:21:14,449 --> 01:21:17,077
at Duboce Park this afternoon
to publicize the new law.
1214
01:21:17,151 --> 01:21:20,120
Dog mess is a hazard and on
top of that, it's disgusting.
1215
01:21:20,188 --> 01:21:24,215
So under the new ordinance, all dog
owners who don't clean up their mess
1216
01:21:24,292 --> 01:21:25,384
will be fined.
1217
01:21:25,460 --> 01:21:28,395
Milk put his foot down to
emphasize that the city intends to enforce,
1218
01:21:28,463 --> 01:21:30,226
and you guessed it.
1219
01:21:30,298 --> 01:21:34,098
In Supervisor Milk's words,
"This really is the bottom line. "
1220
01:21:34,269 --> 01:21:35,429
Aye.
1221
01:21:35,503 --> 01:21:38,597
Lau, aye.
Supervisor Hutch?
1222
01:21:38,673 --> 01:21:39,731
Aye.
1223
01:21:39,807 --> 01:21:43,106
Hutch, aye.
Supervisor White?
1224
01:21:44,579 --> 01:21:45,671
No.
1225
01:21:45,747 --> 01:21:49,148
White, no.
Supervisor Silver?
1226
01:21:49,217 --> 01:21:50,548
Aye.
1227
01:21:50,618 --> 01:21:53,781
Silver, aye.
Supervisor Milk?
1228
01:21:54,889 --> 01:21:55,981
Aye.
1229
01:21:56,057 --> 01:21:57,957
Milk, aye.
1230
01:21:58,026 --> 01:22:02,224
Madam President, I have
ten ayes and one no.
1231
01:22:02,297 --> 01:22:05,027
The San Francisco
Gay Rights Ordinance
1232
01:22:05,099 --> 01:22:09,866
sponsored by Supervisors
Milk and Silver is passed.
1233
01:22:17,478 --> 01:22:19,912
I can't get my stories on page
ten, you're getting page one?
1234
01:22:19,981 --> 01:22:22,074
Doggy-doo is a
real issue, George.
1235
01:22:23,985 --> 01:22:27,546
A powder blue pen to sign the
city's first gay rights law.
1236
01:22:30,024 --> 01:22:33,653
I don't do this enough, taking
swift and unambiguous action
1237
01:22:33,728 --> 01:22:36,253
on a substantive
move for civil rights.
1238
01:22:38,933 --> 01:22:40,298
Congratulations.
1239
01:22:40,868 --> 01:22:42,733
George, we need your help with Briggs.
1240
01:22:42,804 --> 01:22:46,205
The gay community will have your
back on every issue from now on.
1241
01:22:46,274 --> 01:22:48,003
We hope you'll have ours.
1242
01:22:56,484 --> 01:22:58,679
What are you
working on, Dan?
1243
01:23:00,088 --> 01:23:01,555
If you have something
to discuss, Harvey,
1244
01:23:01,622 --> 01:23:04,853
you can have your aide make
an appointment with my aide.
1245
01:23:04,926 --> 01:23:07,952
Dan, I know you're upset
about the psychiatric center.
1246
01:23:09,931 --> 01:23:11,865
What else do you
have coming up?
1247
01:23:11,933 --> 01:23:13,662
Now you need
something from me.
1248
01:23:14,802 --> 01:23:18,465
What do you want, me to support the
queers against Prop 6, is that it?
1249
01:23:18,539 --> 01:23:21,030
We prefer the term gay, Dan.
1250
01:23:21,109 --> 01:23:25,068
Just as I'm sure you prefer the
term Irish-American instead of mick.
1251
01:23:25,680 --> 01:23:29,275
Harvey, a society can't
exist without the family.
1252
01:23:29,350 --> 01:23:31,045
We're not against that.
You're not?
1253
01:23:31,119 --> 01:23:32,882
What, can two men reproduce?
1254
01:23:32,954 --> 01:23:33,943
No.
1255
01:23:34,022 --> 01:23:35,785
But God knows
we keep trying.
1256
01:23:39,127 --> 01:23:40,958
This isn't you, Dan.
1257
01:23:41,029 --> 01:23:43,691
It's like you're
channeling Anita and Briggs.
1258
01:23:44,399 --> 01:23:47,197
We got to be able to work
together on something.
1259
01:23:49,003 --> 01:23:50,630
Okay, Milk,
1260
01:23:51,572 --> 01:23:54,564
introduce an initiative
for supervisor pay raises.
1261
01:23:54,642 --> 01:23:56,872
Dan, we both have elections
coming up. We can't do that.
1262
01:23:56,944 --> 01:23:59,071
No, you asked for something.
1263
01:23:59,147 --> 01:24:03,413
Introduce pay raises, 'cause I can't
take care of my family on our salaries.
1264
01:24:03,484 --> 01:24:06,282
You don't have that
problem, do you?
1265
01:24:15,663 --> 01:24:18,131
Senator John Briggs
apparently has not flinched
1266
01:24:18,199 --> 01:24:22,295
in the face of statewide
criticism of his anti-gay crusade.
1267
01:24:22,370 --> 01:24:25,828
He says polls show most of the
people are still on his side.
1268
01:24:25,907 --> 01:24:29,536
Especially those concerned with the
preservation of the American family.
1269
01:24:29,610 --> 01:24:34,377
If these people are going to live
a life of such open homosexuality,
1270
01:24:35,016 --> 01:24:39,112
that they want a 21 gun salute
every time somebody walks by them,
1271
01:24:40,421 --> 01:24:44,949
those people are going to be in
danger of being removed from their job.
1272
01:24:46,461 --> 01:24:50,955
ALL/
Happy birthday to you
1273
01:24:51,032 --> 01:24:56,834
Happy birthday, dear Harvey
1274
01:24:56,904 --> 01:25:01,967
Happy birthday to you
1275
01:25:26,667 --> 01:25:28,134
What's wrong, taco?
1276
01:25:28,202 --> 01:25:30,295
It's just that
Cleve and Anne,
1277
01:25:30,371 --> 01:25:32,896
they tried to cut me
out of your table, baby.
1278
01:25:32,974 --> 01:25:35,704
I'm so sick of them.
You should fire them.
1279
01:25:37,011 --> 01:25:39,206
I'll take it
under consideration.
1280
01:25:39,280 --> 01:25:41,714
Would you go
get us some cake?
1281
01:25:41,782 --> 01:25:43,010
Cake?
Yeah.
1282
01:25:43,084 --> 01:25:44,676
Whatever you want.
1283
01:25:49,724 --> 01:25:52,124
Don't let Cesar Chavez
hear you calling him taco.
1284
01:25:52,193 --> 01:25:55,959
He's getting much better. He's
enrolling in classes on Monday, I hope.
1285
01:25:56,030 --> 01:25:58,123
You know, I remember
when your birthdays were
1286
01:25:58,199 --> 01:26:00,190
a lot less lavish and
a little more intimate.
1287
01:26:00,268 --> 01:26:01,792
Who invited you? Anne?
1288
01:26:01,869 --> 01:26:05,100
No, my boyfriend.
I'm his plus one.
1289
01:26:06,774 --> 01:26:09,402
Well, congratulations. It
was a very hard ticket to get.
1290
01:26:09,477 --> 01:26:13,140
Congratulations to you. Looks like
you're part of the machine now.
1291
01:26:14,949 --> 01:26:16,974
By the way,
you can do better.
1292
01:26:17,685 --> 01:26:20,176
When I come home to Jack, I
don't have to talk politics,
1293
01:26:20,254 --> 01:26:23,587
I don't have to talk intelligently.
I don't have to talk at all.
1294
01:26:23,658 --> 01:26:28,027
And besides, where's an ugly old man like
me gonna find a handsome young man like that?
1295
01:26:28,095 --> 01:26:31,292
You're not that old
and you look handsome.
1296
01:26:32,466 --> 01:26:36,562
Happy 48. Looks like you're gonna
make it to 50 after all, Mr. Milk.
1297
01:26:42,176 --> 01:26:44,007
Harvey!
1298
01:26:54,455 --> 01:26:56,514
Harvey, Harvey!
1299
01:26:56,591 --> 01:26:58,491
Is your birthday party
over?
1300
01:26:58,559 --> 01:27:00,789
Well, it's just
winding down. Hi.
1301
01:27:00,861 --> 01:27:03,989
Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry I
missed your birthday party.
1302
01:27:04,065 --> 01:27:06,499
No, it's no problem.
It's good to see you, Dan.
1303
01:27:06,567 --> 01:27:08,797
I'm sorry. It's good
to see you too, Harvey.
1304
01:27:10,238 --> 01:27:14,675
Oh, I wanted to ask
you about the dog poop.
1305
01:27:14,742 --> 01:27:16,209
Yeah.
1306
01:27:16,277 --> 01:27:19,075
That's good.
It's a really good one.
1307
01:27:19,146 --> 01:27:20,670
It's a good one.
1308
01:27:20,748 --> 01:27:22,682
Hey, I got you
a little something.
1309
01:27:23,317 --> 01:27:24,511
You didn't have to.
1310
01:27:24,585 --> 01:27:26,052
I knew you were
going to say that.
1311
01:27:26,120 --> 01:27:27,849
Why do people
always say that?
1312
01:27:27,922 --> 01:27:30,857
"You didn't have to. ' '
I mean, of course, right?
1313
01:27:30,925 --> 01:27:32,790
But that's what
they always say.
1314
01:27:32,860 --> 01:27:35,158
They always say
things like that.
1315
01:27:35,229 --> 01:27:36,821
Always.
1316
01:27:37,832 --> 01:27:39,299
Are you okay, Dan?
1317
01:27:39,900 --> 01:27:41,458
Yeah.
1318
01:27:41,535 --> 01:27:43,059
Are you okay, Harvey?
1319
01:27:44,071 --> 01:27:45,936
Are we okay?
Okay.
1320
01:27:46,007 --> 01:27:48,475
I've learned a lot from
watching you. I doubt that.
1321
01:27:48,542 --> 01:27:52,205
No, I have. I've realized
you just gotta get out there.
1322
01:27:52,280 --> 01:27:55,181
You gotta be noticed, 'cause
that's how it all works.
1323
01:27:55,249 --> 01:27:58,685
But you have an issue.
See, that's your advantage.
1324
01:28:01,122 --> 01:28:02,521
That's an advantage.
1325
01:28:02,590 --> 01:28:05,354
Dan,
it's more than an issue.
1326
01:28:06,027 --> 01:28:07,619
What?
I...
1327
01:28:08,696 --> 01:28:13,133
Dan, I have had four
relationships in my life.
1328
01:28:13,200 --> 01:28:16,397
And three of them have tried to
commit suicide. And that's my fault,
1329
01:28:16,470 --> 01:28:19,871
because I kept them hidden and quiet,
because I was closeted and weak.
1330
01:28:19,940 --> 01:28:22,500
You see what I'm saying?
Yes.
1331
01:28:22,576 --> 01:28:24,567
You do?
Mmm-hmm.
1332
01:28:24,645 --> 01:28:29,412
This is not just jobs or issues,
this is our lives we're fighting for.
1333
01:28:29,483 --> 01:28:31,178
Okay?
All right.
1334
01:28:31,252 --> 01:28:33,311
Okay, Dan... I've learned
a lot from you, Harvey.
1335
01:28:33,387 --> 01:28:34,649
I'm getting back
to my party now.
1336
01:28:34,722 --> 01:28:36,690
I'm going to get my
picture in the papers, too.
1337
01:28:36,757 --> 01:28:40,488
Why are you even here? Why did
you just show up from somewhere?
1338
01:28:40,561 --> 01:28:43,291
I've got my own issues.
Okay.
1339
01:28:43,364 --> 01:28:45,423
I've got my own issues.
Thank you.
1340
01:28:45,499 --> 01:28:47,865
"Thank you. ' ' Whatever.
1341
01:28:47,935 --> 01:28:53,567
I don't even know who you are. You just
showed up out of nowhere, Latino man.
1342
01:28:54,742 --> 01:28:57,267
Dan White's got an issue!
1343
01:28:59,780 --> 01:29:03,216
John Briggs said this morning that Dade
County, Oklahoma, and St. Paul, Minnesota
1344
01:29:03,284 --> 01:29:05,047
were only preliminary battles.
1345
01:29:05,119 --> 01:29:10,056
He called his California campaign against
homosexual teachers the main event.
1346
01:29:10,124 --> 01:29:12,752
What it's doing, what
these people are doing is
1347
01:29:12,827 --> 01:29:16,388
changing our morals from our religious
background. And I don't want that.
1348
01:30:03,210 --> 01:30:05,303
This came in
the mail today.
1349
01:30:06,714 --> 01:30:10,514
"You get the first bullet the minute
you stand at the microphone. ' '
1350
01:30:10,584 --> 01:30:12,142
...Supervisor Harvey Milk.
1351
01:30:12,219 --> 01:30:15,382
Well, publicity's working.
1352
01:30:15,456 --> 01:30:17,390
You don't have
to go up there.
1353
01:30:18,559 --> 01:30:21,357
The whole nation is watching.
I have to go.
1354
01:30:35,943 --> 01:30:40,573
My name is Harvey Milk
and I'm here to recruit you!
1355
01:30:42,817 --> 01:30:47,845
I want to recruit you for the
fight to preserve your democracy!
1356
01:30:47,922 --> 01:30:51,585
Brothers and sisters,
you must come out!
1357
01:30:51,659 --> 01:30:53,820
Come out to your parents,
1358
01:30:53,894 --> 01:30:58,194
come out to your friends, if
indeed they are your friends.
1359
01:30:58,265 --> 01:31:02,099
Come out to your neighbors,
come out to your fellow workers.
1360
01:31:02,169 --> 01:31:06,162
Once and for all, let's
break down the myths
1361
01:31:06,240 --> 01:31:09,971
and destroy the lies
and distortions.
1362
01:31:12,446 --> 01:31:16,314
For your sake,
for their sake.
1363
01:31:16,383 --> 01:31:21,047
For the sake of all the
youngsters who've been scared
1364
01:31:21,121 --> 01:31:24,090
by the votes from Dade to Eugene.
1365
01:31:27,962 --> 01:31:30,692
On the Statue of Liberty,
it says,
1366
01:31:31,565 --> 01:31:37,970
"Give me your tired, your poor, your
huddled masses yearning to be free. "
1367
01:31:40,407 --> 01:31:43,604
In the Declaration of
Independence it is written,
1368
01:31:44,178 --> 01:31:51,550
"All men are created equal and endowed
with certain inalienable rights. "
1369
01:31:59,093 --> 01:32:02,028
So, for Mr. Briggs,
1370
01:32:05,266 --> 01:32:06,597
And Mrs. Bryant,
1371
01:32:09,503 --> 01:32:12,267
And all the bigots
out there,
1372
01:32:13,807 --> 01:32:16,401
no matter how hard you try,
1373
01:32:16,477 --> 01:32:21,744
you can never erase those words
from the Declaration of Independence!
1374
01:32:21,815 --> 01:32:27,082
No matter how hard you try,
you can never chip those words
1375
01:32:27,154 --> 01:32:30,248
from the base of
the Statue of Liberty!
1376
01:32:30,324 --> 01:32:33,816
That is where America is!
1377
01:32:33,894 --> 01:32:36,124
Love it or leave it!
1378
01:32:46,073 --> 01:32:49,167
Okay, the mayor says Briggs is on his way
here and that he could intercept him for us.
1379
01:32:49,243 --> 01:32:51,006
We could get him face to face.
Go get the press.
1380
01:32:51,078 --> 01:32:52,409
All right.
1381
01:32:54,481 --> 01:32:58,212
Well, I see naked men walking
around, naked women walking around,
1382
01:32:58,285 --> 01:33:02,619
which doesn't bother me as far as
my personal standards of nudity,
1383
01:33:02,690 --> 01:33:07,559
but it's not proper. It wouldn't be allowed
for any other parade in San Francisco,
1384
01:33:07,628 --> 01:33:09,994
and it should not be
allowed for the Gay Parade.
1385
01:33:48,502 --> 01:33:50,561
I have a right to be at
this parade, Mr. Mayor.
1386
01:33:50,638 --> 01:33:52,572
I'm afraid it's not in the
interest of your safety,
1387
01:33:52,640 --> 01:33:55,768
or my public's safety to let
you into these parade grounds.
1388
01:33:57,411 --> 01:34:01,006
I'm Harvey Milk. It's an
honor to meet you, Mr. Briggs.
1389
01:34:02,850 --> 01:34:04,442
Yeah, no, I'm aware.
1390
01:34:04,518 --> 01:34:08,113
You know, it's sad, Mr. Milk, that
you're afraid to fight this out in public.
1391
01:34:08,188 --> 01:34:09,280
Oh, that's not true.
1392
01:34:09,356 --> 01:34:11,119
I'd very much like to have
a public debate with you.
1393
01:34:11,191 --> 01:34:13,421
I'm very interested in the
details of your argument.
1394
01:34:13,494 --> 01:34:16,793
Oh, well, you know,
you know the details.
1395
01:34:16,864 --> 01:34:20,766
I mean, just look at the votes across
this nation. The public is with me.
1396
01:34:20,834 --> 01:34:22,233
They are today.
1397
01:34:22,302 --> 01:34:24,532
Which is why
with my city's mayor
1398
01:34:24,605 --> 01:34:27,005
and the San Francisco
press as my witnesses,
1399
01:34:27,074 --> 01:34:29,634
I'd like to challenge
you to a public debate.
1400
01:34:34,915 --> 01:34:36,507
Oh, I think
that's a yes.
1401
01:34:38,986 --> 01:34:43,548
You know, Mr. Milk, we don't allow
people who practice bestiality
1402
01:34:43,624 --> 01:34:46,092
To teach our children,
and... Excuse me,
1403
01:34:46,160 --> 01:34:48,390
and the reason we don't
is because it is illegal.
1404
01:34:48,462 --> 01:34:51,556
It is not illegal to be a
homosexual in California.
1405
01:34:51,632 --> 01:34:53,566
And your law goes
even further.
1406
01:34:54,401 --> 01:34:58,064
Any school employee who even
supports a gay person will be fired.
1407
01:34:58,138 --> 01:35:00,936
Well, that's true. But gay people
don't have any children of their own.
1408
01:35:01,008 --> 01:35:03,568
And if they don't recruit our
children, they'd all just die away.
1409
01:35:04,878 --> 01:35:07,472
You know? And that's why they're all
so interested in becoming teachers,
1410
01:35:07,548 --> 01:35:11,507
because they want to encourage
our children to join them.
1411
01:35:13,487 --> 01:35:15,079
And how do you
teach homosexuality?
1412
01:35:15,155 --> 01:35:16,179
It's like French?
1413
01:35:19,126 --> 01:35:21,492
I was born of
heterosexual parents,
1414
01:35:21,562 --> 01:35:23,655
taught by
heterosexual teachers
1415
01:35:23,731 --> 01:35:26,359
in a fiercely
heterosexual society.
1416
01:35:26,433 --> 01:35:28,560
So why then
am I homosexual?
1417
01:35:28,635 --> 01:35:30,330
And no offense meant,
1418
01:35:30,404 --> 01:35:33,271
but if it were true that
children mimicked their teachers,
1419
01:35:33,340 --> 01:35:35,501
we'd have a hell of a lot
more nuns running around.
1420
01:35:43,450 --> 01:35:48,012
We were really, genuinely
frightened by Proposition 6.
1421
01:35:49,256 --> 01:35:53,454
And with Anita and Briggs gaining
strength, we were very pessimistic.
1422
01:35:54,495 --> 01:35:57,521
We didn't think that there was
any chance that we could beat it.
1423
01:35:57,598 --> 01:36:00,066
But what we did hope for
1424
01:36:00,134 --> 01:36:02,466
is that we could
organize enough,
1425
01:36:03,103 --> 01:36:07,005
so that when we did lose,
all hell would break loose.
1426
01:36:07,074 --> 01:36:10,202
We're still losing 60-30. We got
to take this show on the road.
1427
01:36:10,277 --> 01:36:11,676
Put out a press release.
1428
01:36:11,745 --> 01:36:14,805
Call Briggs' office, tell him he
can pick the audience, the town.
1429
01:36:14,882 --> 01:36:16,816
I'll tell my supporters
to stay away.
1430
01:36:16,884 --> 01:36:20,445
Harvey, his audiences are
intensely devout. You'll get killed.
1431
01:36:21,188 --> 01:36:23,122
Get me Orange County.
1432
01:36:23,690 --> 01:36:27,182
In your statements here and all
these newspapers and tonight,
1433
01:36:27,261 --> 01:36:30,059
you say that child
molestation is not an issue.
1434
01:36:30,130 --> 01:36:31,825
If it's not an issue,
1435
01:36:31,899 --> 01:36:35,391
why do you put out literature
that hammers it home?
1436
01:36:35,469 --> 01:36:38,905
Why do you play on
this myth and fear?
1437
01:36:38,972 --> 01:36:41,406
Same thing with VD, Harvey,
we put out publications...
1438
01:36:41,475 --> 01:36:42,635
This is campaign
literature.
1439
01:36:42,709 --> 01:36:46,304
Well, we put out publications
about VD so you can avoid it.
1440
01:36:53,153 --> 01:36:56,782
You yourself had said that there's more
molestation in the heterosexual group,
1441
01:36:56,857 --> 01:37:00,054
So why not get rid of
the heterosexual teachers?
1442
01:37:00,127 --> 01:37:03,790
We are not talking about
homosex... About child molestation.
1443
01:37:03,864 --> 01:37:09,632
Nearly... The fact is, nearly 95
percent of the people are heterosexual,
1444
01:37:09,703 --> 01:37:13,002
so, if we took the heterosexuals
out and the homosexuals out,
1445
01:37:13,073 --> 01:37:14,734
you know what,
we'd have no teachers.
1446
01:37:14,808 --> 01:37:16,036
We'd have no teachers,
no more molestation.
1447
01:37:16,109 --> 01:37:18,339
So you're saying that the
percentage of the population
1448
01:37:18,412 --> 01:37:19,674
is equal to the percentage
of child molestation?
1449
01:37:19,746 --> 01:37:21,714
No, no, no,
I'm not saying that, no.
1450
01:37:21,782 --> 01:37:23,249
That's what
you just said.
1451
01:37:23,317 --> 01:37:25,581
No, no, no. I'm not saying that at
all. I am saying that we can't prevent
1452
01:37:25,652 --> 01:37:28,246
child molestation, so
let's just cut our odds down
1453
01:37:28,322 --> 01:37:32,122
by taking out the homosexuals and
keeping in the heterosexual groups.
1454
01:37:34,962 --> 01:37:38,693
Sir, in your drive
for personal power,
1455
01:37:38,765 --> 01:37:41,359
how many careers are you
willing to see destroyed?
1456
01:37:41,435 --> 01:37:46,566
How many lives, in your lust for power,
will you destroy and when will it stop?
1457
01:38:00,320 --> 01:38:01,548
Jack, what is it?
1458
01:38:01,622 --> 01:38:03,886
Nothing. Just
wondering when you'll be home.
1459
01:38:03,957 --> 01:38:07,415
You just had them pull me out of my big
vote on the dog shit ordinance for this?
1460
01:38:07,494 --> 01:38:09,394
What, do you do
this on purpose?
1461
01:38:09,463 --> 01:38:11,488
Fuck, Harvey,
it's poop, okay?
1462
01:38:11,565 --> 01:38:14,261
I just hope I'm more
important than poop.
1463
01:38:14,334 --> 01:38:18,703
Look, it's... I just... I don't
know what time I'll be home.
1464
01:38:18,772 --> 01:38:20,239
6:00 or 6:15.
1465
01:38:20,307 --> 01:38:21,797
Okay.
Okay?
1466
01:38:21,875 --> 01:38:23,604
I'm all right.
I'll see you then.
1467
01:38:23,677 --> 01:38:25,167
Okay.
6/15, then.
1468
01:38:28,882 --> 01:38:30,941
Dan, how's the baby?
1469
01:38:31,018 --> 01:38:33,418
You didn't bring up
supervisor pay raises?
1470
01:38:33,487 --> 01:38:36,615
In fact, I heard that you
plan to publicly oppose them.
1471
01:38:36,690 --> 01:38:38,658
Well, I heard that you planned
to vote against them, too.
1472
01:38:38,725 --> 01:38:40,124
Were you setting me up?
1473
01:38:40,193 --> 01:38:43,026
It's not a good time for
me, politically speaking.
1474
01:38:43,630 --> 01:38:46,895
Dan, there's a vote on the
Police Desegregation Settlement.
1475
01:38:46,967 --> 01:38:49,265
You give me that and I'll
consider backing pay raises.
1476
01:38:49,336 --> 01:38:51,429
I don't trade votes.
1477
01:38:51,505 --> 01:38:52,995
Unlike you,
the way I was raised,
1478
01:38:53,073 --> 01:38:56,008
we believe in right and
wrong. Moral and immoral.
1479
01:38:56,076 --> 01:38:58,670
Black skin and white
in the police department.
1480
01:38:58,745 --> 01:39:02,442
Dan, even Ronald Reagan
is opposed to Proposition 6.
1481
01:39:02,516 --> 01:39:04,416
You're looking more
and more out of touch.
1482
01:39:04,484 --> 01:39:07,214
Okay, if I come out against Prop 6,
it's only going to be for the invasion
1483
01:39:07,287 --> 01:39:08,811
of state's rights issue,
that's it.
1484
01:39:08,889 --> 01:39:11,084
And the potential witch hunt
against you straight people.
1485
01:39:13,894 --> 01:39:17,455
You can't humiliate
me, okay?
1486
01:39:18,131 --> 01:39:21,157
You will not demean me.
1487
01:39:25,706 --> 01:39:29,642
Harvey, we're doing the final
vote. We need to get you back.
1488
01:39:44,191 --> 01:39:45,351
Jack?
1489
01:39:49,029 --> 01:39:50,189
Jack?
1490
01:39:57,604 --> 01:39:58,730
Jack?
1491
01:40:13,320 --> 01:40:14,753
Oh!
1492
01:40:14,821 --> 01:40:16,846
No, Jack. Jack, no!
1493
01:40:16,923 --> 01:40:20,154
No, no, no. Jack, no.
1494
01:40:22,829 --> 01:40:23,818
Jack!
1495
01:40:24,731 --> 01:40:28,861
No, no, no, no!
Oh, no!
1496
01:40:35,075 --> 01:40:36,508
Harvey,
1497
01:40:37,978 --> 01:40:39,377
look at me.
1498
01:40:40,380 --> 01:40:42,245
Hey, look at me.
1499
01:40:43,316 --> 01:40:45,477
You did everything
that you could.
1500
01:40:48,555 --> 01:40:50,216
No, I didn't.
1501
01:40:51,691 --> 01:40:53,591
What more could
you have done?
1502
01:40:55,695 --> 01:41:00,758
I could have come back
at 6:00 instead of 6:15.
1503
01:41:03,770 --> 01:41:05,237
Shh.
1504
01:41:07,774 --> 01:41:10,834
Jack was gone. I didn't
have any time to mourn.
1505
01:41:10,911 --> 01:41:12,572
There was no choice.
1506
01:41:13,246 --> 01:41:16,613
I had to keep on...
Keep on fighting.
1507
01:41:18,652 --> 01:41:20,517
Most
California political leaders,
1508
01:41:20,587 --> 01:41:23,647
from Governor Jerry Brown to
former Governor Ronald Reagan,
1509
01:41:23,723 --> 01:41:27,352
say there are already enough laws
on the books to protect children.
1510
01:41:27,427 --> 01:41:29,827
If you allow one,
just one human being
1511
01:41:29,896 --> 01:41:33,195
to be allowed to have his
rights taken away from him,
1512
01:41:33,266 --> 01:41:35,097
as a human being
then, pal,
1513
01:41:35,168 --> 01:41:37,500
you don't have any right when
they come to take away your rights!
1514
01:41:37,571 --> 01:41:40,165
You do what you want in
the privacy of your own home.
1515
01:41:40,240 --> 01:41:42,538
But don't tell me I got
to accept it in mine.
1516
01:41:50,484 --> 01:41:52,816
San Bernadino is coming in.
Not good.
1517
01:41:52,886 --> 01:41:54,217
Of course not.
How not good?
1518
01:41:54,287 --> 01:41:56,687
60% for Briggs.
Same in Fresno.
1519
01:41:56,756 --> 01:41:58,747
Oh, dear God,
Lotus Blossom.
1520
01:41:58,825 --> 01:42:01,953
Imperial is
69% for so far.
1521
01:42:02,028 --> 01:42:03,461
Put it on the board.
1522
01:42:03,530 --> 01:42:06,761
I love homosexuals,
if you can believe that.
1523
01:42:06,833 --> 01:42:08,528
I love them enough
to tell them the truth.
1524
01:42:08,602 --> 01:42:12,504
I think that if it were passed, it
would be just what some people would need
1525
01:42:12,572 --> 01:42:14,301
to conduct a very
severe witch hunt.
1526
01:42:14,374 --> 01:42:17,775
What I ask, everybody to
vote against Proposition 6.
1527
01:42:23,750 --> 01:42:28,016
The whole world is watching. This is
San Francisco we're losing. You ready?
1528
01:42:28,822 --> 01:42:31,985
I can have 15,000
people here in an hour,
1529
01:42:32,058 --> 01:42:34,424
but there's gonna be
riots if this thing passes.
1530
01:42:34,494 --> 01:42:36,325
There goddamn
well better be.
1531
01:42:37,497 --> 01:42:39,089
What are you telling me?
1532
01:42:39,166 --> 01:42:41,600
I can't say this because
I'm a public official,
1533
01:42:41,668 --> 01:42:45,866
but if this thing passes,
fight the hell back.
1534
01:42:45,939 --> 01:42:48,499
It was fundamentalist
Christians who helped Briggs
1535
01:42:48,575 --> 01:42:52,136
gather most of the signatures to
put Proposition 6 on today's ballot.
1536
01:42:52,212 --> 01:42:54,442
The Christian community
had never been involved
1537
01:42:54,514 --> 01:42:56,744
in any political
controversial issue.
1538
01:42:56,816 --> 01:42:59,614
And they're not only involved,
but they're committed.
1539
01:42:59,686 --> 01:43:02,211
They've not only been working very hard,
but they're going to come out and vote today.
1540
01:43:02,289 --> 01:43:04,849
"Thou shalt love thy
neighbor as thyself. "
1541
01:43:04,925 --> 01:43:07,553
And I would like to know
how you, Senator Briggs,
1542
01:43:07,627 --> 01:43:12,690
believe that Proposition 6 will help
children learn how to accept people
1543
01:43:12,766 --> 01:43:14,256
who are different
from themselves.
1544
01:43:14,334 --> 01:43:16,529
Harvey,
Don Amador from LA.
1545
01:43:18,138 --> 01:43:19,366
Not a good time, Don.
1546
01:43:19,439 --> 01:43:22,169
No, sir, this is Paul.
Don just gave me the phone.
1547
01:43:22,242 --> 01:43:23,368
Paul who?
1548
01:43:23,443 --> 01:43:25,308
You spoke to me on the
phone a year or so ago.
1549
01:43:25,378 --> 01:43:28,575
I'm in a wheelchair.
I'm from Minnesota.
1550
01:43:28,648 --> 01:43:31,048
I thought you were
a goner, Paul.
1551
01:43:31,785 --> 01:43:34,948
When I saw that you
won the supervisor seat,
1552
01:43:35,021 --> 01:43:37,489
I got a friend to
put me on a bus to LA.
1553
01:43:37,557 --> 01:43:39,491
Who do you know
in Los Angeles?
1554
01:43:40,727 --> 01:43:42,319
Nobody.
1555
01:43:42,395 --> 01:43:43,987
That's the...
1556
01:43:46,166 --> 01:43:47,929
I just didn't
want to die anymore.
1557
01:43:48,001 --> 01:43:50,231
I met your friend Don
down here.
1558
01:43:50,303 --> 01:43:53,067
I turned 18 and I voted
today against Prop 6.
1559
01:43:53,139 --> 01:43:55,437
I don't think I'd be alive
right now if it weren't for you.
1560
01:43:55,508 --> 01:43:57,442
No, you did that all by yourself, Paul.
1561
01:43:57,510 --> 01:44:00,070
Don wanted me to congratulate
you on what he says
1562
01:44:00,146 --> 01:44:03,775
looks like a big win for us
tonight. Congratulations, Mr. Milk.
1563
01:44:08,989 --> 01:44:10,752
Yeah, I know,
it's incredible.
1564
01:44:10,824 --> 01:44:14,191
All the precincts have reported
we've won 65% in LA County.
1565
01:44:14,261 --> 01:44:15,922
It's huge, Harvey.
1566
01:44:15,996 --> 01:44:17,827
I got to go, Don.
1567
01:44:17,897 --> 01:44:22,766
We just took LA County by
65%. Put it up! Put it up!
1568
01:44:33,146 --> 01:44:34,340
Okay, okay.
1569
01:44:34,414 --> 01:44:36,245
What, Jim? Jim, what? Okay, okay!
1570
01:44:36,316 --> 01:44:38,614
The polls were way off.
Briggs is going down by 2 to 1.
1571
01:44:38,685 --> 01:44:42,018
The only place it's going to pass in
San Francisco is Dan White's district.
1572
01:44:43,189 --> 01:44:45,589
Somebody, cover up
Lady Liberty!
1573
01:44:45,659 --> 01:44:48,423
The cameras are
on the way here.
1574
01:45:32,138 --> 01:45:36,336
Tonight, it's become clear
to everyone out there
1575
01:45:36,409 --> 01:45:39,435
that they do know one of us,
and now that they do,
1576
01:45:39,512 --> 01:45:41,537
they can see that
we're not sick.
1577
01:45:42,349 --> 01:45:44,817
They can feel that
we are not wrong.
1578
01:45:45,719 --> 01:45:50,281
And they know that there must
be, that there should be a place
1579
01:45:50,357 --> 01:45:55,090
for us in this great
country, in this world.
1580
01:46:01,434 --> 01:46:06,462
A message of hope has been
sent to all those young people,
1581
01:46:06,539 --> 01:46:10,168
to all of those who've been
afraid by this wave of hate,
1582
01:46:10,243 --> 01:46:14,407
to all of those who have lost
their homes, lost their hometowns.
1583
01:46:14,481 --> 01:46:20,215
Tonight, we are clear that
there is a place for us!
1584
01:46:20,286 --> 01:46:23,585
My brothers and sisters,
we can come home again!
1585
01:46:48,014 --> 01:46:50,073
Oh, good morning, Dan.
1586
01:46:50,150 --> 01:46:53,278
Morning, Harvey,
I just resigned.
1587
01:46:54,020 --> 01:46:57,683
Congratulations. I'm sure you'll
be the next President of the Board.
1588
01:47:01,127 --> 01:47:04,426
Hey, Dan.
Just got word.
1589
01:47:04,497 --> 01:47:06,795
Can we talk to you for a minute?
1590
01:47:07,367 --> 01:47:08,629
Yeah, sure.
1591
01:47:08,701 --> 01:47:11,101
The association
meeting room.
1592
01:47:25,652 --> 01:47:28,780
Well, now it starts all over
again, because this morning,
1593
01:47:28,855 --> 01:47:34,054
former Supervisor Dan White says he wants
to be called supervisor one more time.
1594
01:47:34,127 --> 01:47:38,587
He gets dragged into this closed
door meeting at Police Association.
1595
01:47:38,665 --> 01:47:40,189
Suddenly
he wants his job back.
1596
01:47:40,266 --> 01:47:41,858
I mean, who knows what they
might have said to him in there.
1597
01:47:41,935 --> 01:47:43,869
Or what they may
have promised him.
1598
01:47:43,937 --> 01:47:45,427
Or worse yet, if they
had threatened him.
1599
01:47:45,505 --> 01:47:47,996
A man has the right to change
his mind. Give me some peace.
1600
01:47:48,074 --> 01:47:51,601
Dan White has been the vote on the
board that has stood in our way.
1601
01:47:51,678 --> 01:47:53,441
The vote.
I get it, Harvey.
1602
01:47:53,513 --> 01:47:55,378
I've been lobbied all week.
Enough.
1603
01:47:56,649 --> 01:47:59,846
Let me remind you of something,
you're up for re-election.
1604
01:47:59,919 --> 01:48:03,184
If you reappoint Dan White, you will
lose the gay vote. They listen to me.
1605
01:48:03,256 --> 01:48:05,417
You will not be
elected dog catcher.
1606
01:48:08,361 --> 01:48:10,693
I'll make
my decision on Monday.
1607
01:48:11,531 --> 01:48:13,829
You know who you
sounded like just now?
1608
01:48:13,900 --> 01:48:16,835
Boss Tweed
or Mayor Daly.
1609
01:48:19,005 --> 01:48:20,597
I like that.
1610
01:48:23,309 --> 01:48:25,869
A homosexual with power.
1611
01:48:27,247 --> 01:48:29,044
That's scary.
1612
01:49:38,184 --> 01:49:39,845
Hello.
1613
01:49:39,919 --> 01:49:41,648
Yes, hold on, please.
1614
01:49:43,690 --> 01:49:45,157
Thank you.
1615
01:49:46,225 --> 01:49:47,624
Yes, this is Dan White.
1616
01:49:47,694 --> 01:49:50,254
Hi, Mr. White, this is
Barbara Taylor from KCBS.
1617
01:49:50,330 --> 01:49:51,422
Mmm-hmm.
1618
01:49:51,497 --> 01:49:53,397
I'm interested
in your reaction.
1619
01:49:53,466 --> 01:49:56,196
I've received information
from the mayor's office
1620
01:49:56,269 --> 01:49:59,363
that you're not
getting your job back.
1621
01:50:01,374 --> 01:50:04,275
I'm sorry, I don't know
anything about that.
1622
01:50:21,995 --> 01:50:23,223
Hello?
1623
01:50:23,296 --> 01:50:24,923
Did I wake you?
1624
01:50:26,899 --> 01:50:29,231
Harvey?
Are you all right?
1625
01:50:29,902 --> 01:50:34,168
I went to the opera tonight.
Guess who I went with.
1626
01:50:35,241 --> 01:50:36,333
Who?
1627
01:50:36,409 --> 01:50:38,934
Bidu Sayao herself.
1628
01:50:39,012 --> 01:50:42,413
She was my first Puccini.
The crowd went wild.
1629
01:50:42,482 --> 01:50:46,782
I felt like I was young
again, being at my first opera.
1630
01:50:59,165 --> 01:51:02,032
Maybe you should tell me the
next time you go to the opera.
1631
01:51:03,136 --> 01:51:04,535
Really?
1632
01:51:04,604 --> 01:51:06,902
Yeah. I'd go with you.
1633
01:51:09,976 --> 01:51:11,500
I'd like that.
1634
01:51:27,627 --> 01:51:29,857
Look outside,
the sun's coming up.
1635
01:51:29,929 --> 01:51:31,920
Okay, hang on.
1636
01:51:56,723 --> 01:51:58,281
Hey, wait a minute.
1637
01:51:58,357 --> 01:52:00,484
My aide was supposed to come down here
1638
01:52:00,560 --> 01:52:02,585
and let me in the side door,
but she never showed up.
1639
01:52:02,662 --> 01:52:05,130
And you are? I'm Dan
White, City Supervisor.
1640
01:52:13,573 --> 01:52:14,699
Harvey,
1641
01:52:16,642 --> 01:52:19,110
I want you to know
that I am proud of you.
1642
01:53:00,853 --> 01:53:02,753
I don't wanna miss this.
1643
01:53:03,890 --> 01:53:05,517
Miss what?
1644
01:53:08,227 --> 01:53:09,285
This.
1645
01:53:13,866 --> 01:53:17,165
Is he here? Can I see
the mayor for a moment?
1646
01:53:18,371 --> 01:53:20,896
Just a minute,
I'll see if he's available.
1647
01:53:23,309 --> 01:53:25,675
Sir, Dan White
is here to see you.
1648
01:53:30,016 --> 01:53:32,041
So, who are they gonna replace Dan with?
1649
01:53:32,118 --> 01:53:35,383
That goddamn lefty
liberal, Don Horanzy?
1650
01:53:35,454 --> 01:53:37,285
That'll really
shake up the board.
1651
01:53:37,356 --> 01:53:40,086
All I know is that we're
getting a new supervisor today.
1652
01:53:40,159 --> 01:53:43,322
If Dan shows up,
just avoid him.
1653
01:53:43,396 --> 01:53:45,864
We don't need a scene
today, do we, Harvey?
1654
01:53:46,465 --> 01:53:47,955
God forbid, Dianne.
1655
01:53:50,436 --> 01:53:53,234
Mr. White,
the mayor will see you now.
1656
01:53:56,475 --> 01:53:57,806
Thanks.
You're welcome.
1657
01:53:57,877 --> 01:54:00,209
Dan, come on in.
1658
01:54:02,615 --> 01:54:04,446
It's not something that
I wanna calm down about.
1659
01:54:04,517 --> 01:54:06,280
You can't take
this away from me.
1660
01:54:06,352 --> 01:54:09,253
Dan, look,
you made a decision.
1661
01:54:09,322 --> 01:54:11,313
You know,
you made the decision.
1662
01:54:13,259 --> 01:54:16,854
The issue is what's fair to the
people of your district, Dan.
1663
01:54:16,929 --> 01:54:21,059
Now, look, take some time
off. Spend it with your family.
1664
01:55:07,413 --> 01:55:11,645
Tell President Carter we're coming
after him next, this time next year.
1665
01:55:11,717 --> 01:55:12,809
Hi, Dianne.
1666
01:55:12,885 --> 01:55:15,080
We're marching
to Washington D.C.
1667
01:55:18,024 --> 01:55:20,288
Hey, can I see you in
my office for a minute?
1668
01:55:22,662 --> 01:55:26,120
Sure. I'll be back.
Yeah.
1669
01:55:44,617 --> 01:55:45,845
No.
1670
01:56:27,693 --> 01:56:29,854
Well,
you know what I think?
1671
01:56:29,929 --> 01:56:32,659
I think you need
to find a new scene.
1672
01:56:32,732 --> 01:56:34,324
And some new friends.
1673
01:56:36,969 --> 01:56:38,800
I need a change.
1674
01:56:42,174 --> 01:56:44,267
You're 40 now.
Oh.
1675
01:56:49,148 --> 01:56:54,245
Forty years old and I haven't
done a thing I'm proud of.
1676
01:56:56,122 --> 01:57:00,718
Keep eating all that cake, you're gonna
be a fat-ass by the time you're 50.
1677
01:57:00,793 --> 01:57:03,762
No, I'll never make it to 50.
1678
01:57:49,275 --> 01:57:50,867
Where is everyone?
1679
01:57:51,877 --> 01:57:53,606
Doesn't anyone
give a damn?
1680
01:57:54,547 --> 01:57:57,380
Cleve's getting some people
together in the Castro.
1681
01:58:04,824 --> 01:58:09,386
Last week I got a phone call
from Altoona, Pennsylvania.
1682
01:58:10,496 --> 01:58:16,332
The voice was very young,
and the person said, "Thanks. ' '
1683
01:58:17,670 --> 01:58:22,403
You've got to elect gay people
so that the young child
1684
01:58:23,008 --> 01:58:26,136
and the thousands upon
thousands just like him
1685
01:58:27,046 --> 01:58:29,708
will have hope
for a better life.
1686
01:58:30,850 --> 01:58:33,250
Hope for a better tomorrow.
1687
01:58:50,736 --> 01:58:52,203
I ask this,
1688
01:58:53,739 --> 01:58:56,674
that if there be
an assassination,
1689
01:58:58,310 --> 01:59:04,510
I would want five, ten,
a hundred, a thousand to rise.
1690
01:59:09,255 --> 01:59:13,589
If a bullet should enter my brain,
let it destroy every closet door.
1691
01:59:15,127 --> 01:59:22,329
I ask for the movement to continue
because it's not about personal gain,
1692
01:59:22,401 --> 01:59:25,564
and it's not about ego
and it's not about power.
1693
01:59:26,338 --> 01:59:28,863
It's about the
"us's" out there.
1694
01:59:30,242 --> 01:59:34,008
Not just the gays but
the blacks and the Asians
1695
01:59:34,079 --> 01:59:35,979
and the seniors
and the disabled.
1696
01:59:36,048 --> 01:59:37,276
The "us's. "
1697
01:59:40,953 --> 01:59:44,320
Without hope,
the "us's" give up.
1698
01:59:46,525 --> 01:59:50,621
And I know you can't
live on hope alone.
1699
01:59:50,696 --> 01:59:55,395
But without hope,
life is not worth living.
1700
01:59:57,770 --> 01:59:59,169
So you,
1701
02:00:00,139 --> 02:00:01,697
and you,
1702
02:00:02,208 --> 02:00:03,573
and you,
1703
02:00:03,943 --> 02:00:05,968
you got to give them hope.
1704
02:00:07,813 --> 02:00:10,304
You got to give them hope.
