Synopsis

Album Description
MILK has an original score by Grammy and Emmy Award® winner Danny Elfman ("Batman," "Desperate Housewives). CD includes Danny Elfman's score and the following songs: "Everyday People" (Sly & the Family Stone), "Queen Bitch" (David Bowie), J.S. Bach - Prelude No. 7 in E Flat (The Swingle Singers), "You Make Me Feel [Mighty Real]" (Sylvester), "Rock the Boat" (The Hues Corporation) and "Ah, quegli occhi! Quale occhio al mondo" - Tosca (Maria Callas/Giuseppe Di Stefano). Academy Award nominee Gus Van Sant ("Good Will Hunting," "My Own Private Idaho") directs Academy Award winner Sean Penn as renowned activist Harvey Milk. Milk, the first openly gay man to be elected to public office in America, was assassinated in 1977, and is today recognized as an icon and a leading figure in the gay rights movement. In addition to Sean Penn, the cast includes Josh Brolin ("No Country For Old Men") as city supervisor Dan White, the man who first befriended Milk and then notoriously shot both he and the San Francisco mayor George Moscone (Victor Garber). MILK is tour de force performance by Sean Penn as the lead character, and he will certainly receive an Oscar nomination for this role. In real life Harvey Milk was witty, charming, insistent and completely memorable. Penn captures Milk in all his brilliance. Photos: Phil Bray

CD Reviews

The music is perfect for the movie
Robert G Yokoyama | Mililani, Hawaii | 12/13/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"The "Milk" soundtrack is excellent. The music is perfect for the movie. I love the music of the seventies. I grew up listening to this music.

I absolutely love the tracks "You Make Me Feel Real" and "Rock The Boat". These are great classic dance tracks. Another highlight is the track "Everyday People" by Sly and the Family Stone. This is a great track to bring people together. Hello Hello is an easy going song that makes me feel good. I love Danny Elfman's score especially his beautiful Harvey's theme. I also like the sax solo at the end. It is very relaxing. I love the tense dramatic sound of "Gay Rights Now". "Prelude Number Seven" is such a peaceful instrumental track. I love the angelic choir sound of "The Kiss" too."
WOW GRAND CAST, STORY & PERFECT TIMING....GAY MOVEMENT is HE

The cast and score is just wonderful...>GREAT JOB Gus"

"Danny Elfman has created a beautiful score for this film.I'm pleased that they put plenty of the score on the CD and didn't fill it with pop songs used in film that are available elsewhere."
