TAKING A WALK ON THE FILMIC SIDE, TRANSITING THE VINTAGE ROADS.
"The other element that elevates “Milk” from other films of its type is the mesmerizing performance from Sean Penn in the title role. Effectively tempering the angry edge that has infused most of his best work over the years, Penn presents us with a version of Milk that replicates the man in ways far beyond approximating his look and vocal cadences. He captures the wit, charm, brashness and vulnerability of the man to such an astonishing degree that at a certain point, we are no longer looking at Sean Penn delivering a performance--for all intents and purposes, we are looking at Harvey Milk.
Over the years, Penn has given us one indelible performance after another but his work here is some of the best stuff that he has ever done. At the same time, this isn’t a one-man show by any means because the supporting cast is just
as effective--Brolin’s take on Dan White is just as hypnotic and
strangely sensitive as his recent turn as George W. Bush, James Franco contributes a sweetly vulnerable performance as Scott
Smith and Emile Hirsch does such a good job of disappearing into the role of Cleve Jones that I have to admit that I didn’t even realize that it was him playing the role until I saw the end credits.
