‘The Times of Harvey Milk’ part of celebration at Castro
A Sunday, May 22, screening of Rob Epstein’s 1984 Oscar-winning documentary “The Times of Harvey Milk” serves as a finale for a weekend of events that celebrate what would have been Milk’s 86th birthday.
The film is preceded by a reception and brunch with local celebrity guests at the Castro Theatre.
On Friday, May 20, the museum will debut its Mighty Reels monthly series with “White Night Fright,” a compilation of untelevised footage, an amateur documentary and more to commemorate the 37th anniversary of the White Night Riot (May 21, 1979), which was in reaction to Dan White’s perceived lenient sentencing for the murder of Milk and S.F. Mayor George Moscone.
