Patrick’s Cabaret and Mark Wojahn with support from KFAI present The 3rd Annual -TBD
MOVIES IN THE PARKING LOT: ART, MUSIC, FOOD & FESTIVAL
A Lot of Spirit at Patrick’s Cabaret
Bring your lawn chairs, blankets and good vibes and enjoy inspirational movies in the
parking lot of Patrick’s Cabaret. Held over four Thursday evenings at dusk, these
movies are destined to touch your heart and mind. Movies will begin at dusk and a
discussion will follow each video.
Cost is free!
"MILK" is the rare counter culture Hollywood film which touches your heart with its spot on directing and wonderful award winning performances by Sean Penn, James Franco and Emily Hirsh. Sean Penn won the Best Actor Oscar as the first openly gay elected politician and activist, Harvey Milk. Right before Penn calls out to the academy in his acceptance speech, "You homo-loving sons of guns!", Robert DeNiro said to the Penn, "How did you fool us for so many years by playing straight men?" I bring this up because the smiling Penn is so convincing as the gay leader. ‘MILK’ conjures up the excitement of the emerging gay activism in the Bay area and the extreme sadness of his untimely death. The viewing of the film benefits with the timely release during last years Proposition 8 battle in California. It will likely become as important of Hollywood film as BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN was a few years back.
