Has anyone who has seen this know how accurate it was, like did someone else really sway Prop 6, and some of the other stuff.
if accurate the guy was a double amazing guy. i knew the skeleton of the story, and knew he had done some impressive things but there were things I hadn't known about-

I cannot find the link, but there was a story in the paper here about a reporter who watched the movie with one of Milk's friends/colleagues. This guy said that the events were dead-on, but personal portrayal was not. One example he gave was the scene where Milk is drunk. Apparently he was a teetotaller in real life.
