"Milk, " a bpic about gay rights activist Harvey Milk, opened theaters 2008 to cril acclaim. The movie tells the te story of the man who ma history by beg Ameri's first openly gay polician, solidifyg his legacy as an in for the LGBTQ+ muny.
The film suggts that Dan Whe may have been a closeted gay man, whose tormented mental state and nfn over his sexual inty, along wh his fancial and polil troubl, played a role his sudn homicidal behavr when he assassated Milk 1978. This portrayal of Dan Whe heavily rembl Colonel Frank Fts the 1999 movie "Amerin Bety, " a character whose homophobia is fueled by his own reprsed homosexualy, eventually drivg him to m murr.
Although 's possible that Whe had sexual securi or was secretly gay, there isn't any real-life evince or suggtn to support this speculatn, nor the ia that Whe murred Milk as a rult of his reprsed homosexualy. In the film, Harvey realiz that orr to beat Proposn 6 (the ballot iative aimed at banng gay men and lbian women om workg California's public schools), he'd need to challenge the proposn's sponsor John Briggs to a public bate. Dan Whe's chief polil advisor was a gay man.

Dan Whe's disfort wh homosexualy and gay men like Harvey Milk is equently picted the movie, wh his polil and public rhetoric labelg gay people as "splter groups of social radils, social viants and rrigibl.
" From Whe's pot of view, this seems necsary orr to appease District 8 voters, the majory of whom are whe, nservative, middle-class fai who are opposed to San Francis's expandg gay muny. However, his homophobia isn't as apparent his private moments wh Milk, as Whe tri to build a personal and profsnal rapport wh the Board of Supervisors. Asi om the film's suggtn that his homophobia may have been rooted his own reprsed homosexualy (or, at least, that Milk thought so), most of s pictn of Whe is factually accurate.
