Got Milk?
Being lactose and Sean Penn intolerant MILK is not a film I initially rushed to see. And I may not be the only one, with Focus Features retitling the film SOY in many key Asian markets. We'll wait on box office numbers to see how effective such a tactical move will be.
But the film itself is less about the pasteurisation process and more about a man who loves men and rights and a lady loves orange juice and Jesus. Although part of me thinks they should've cast Michael Jackson and re-written the later part to be a woman who loves Jesus juice. Missed opportunity really Mr Van Sant, or is it Mr Sant? But I guess that would make his first name Gus Van.
Either way, jesus juice, jesus milk or not, it is a story worth telling and therefore worth watching. See the trailer here.

They should've got Katherine to put on a curly wig and go for her life.
ReplyDeleteHunay, catherine would not be so pritay with mariah carey/michael bolton circa 1990 hair...and there'd be no cigarettes left for the rest of the cast for their roles.
ReplyDeletethe question is, will you be home at 6 or 615?
