其實不清楚這算不算放雷耶...?
(因為我也還沒看過此片...,只是在猜測會不會出現在劇情,哈~)
只是,Milk拍攝的時間點,剛好距焦於Harvey Milk當選後到被槍殺那短短的兩年。
也就是1976~1978。
所以其中一幕,應該是會有以下網址的演講內容...
不過這段話其實還蠻經典的,是Milk在1978年發表的演講;
去年美國在爭論是否通過Prop 8一案時,這段話又拿出來被引用。
大家姑且看一下吧...

"Somewhere in Des Moines or San Antonio there is a young gay person who all
the sudden realizes that he or she is
gay; knows that if their parents find out they will be tossed out of the
house, their classmates will taunt the child, and
the Anita Bryant's and John Briggs' are doing their part on TV.
And that child has several options: staying in the closet, and suicide. And
then one day that child might open the paper
that says "Homosexual elected in San Francisco" and there are two new
options: the option is to go to California, or
stay in San Antonio and fight.
Two days after I was elected I got a phone call and the voice was quite
young. It was from Altoona, Pennsylvania.
And the person said "Thanks". And you've got to elect gay people, so that
thousand upon thousands like that child
know that there is hope for a better world; there is hope for a better
tomorrow.
Without hope, not only gays, but those who are blacks, the Asians, the
disabled, the seniors, the us's: without hope
the us's give up. I know that you can't live on hope alone, but without it,
life is not worth living. And you, and you,
and you, and you have got to give them hope."
-Harvey Milk, 1978
