‘Milk’ screenwriter Dustin Lance Black wins Oscar.
‘Milk’ screenwriter Dustin Lance Black wins Oscar.
At tonight’s Academy Awards, screenwriter Dustin Lance Black won the Oscar for Best Screenplay for “Milk,” the story of California’s first openly gay elected official, Harvey Milk. Black — who was wearing a White Knot for marriage equality — spoke about how Milk inspired him:
BLACK: When I was 13 years old, my beautiful mother and my father moved me from a conservative Mormon home in San Antonio, Texas, to California, and I heard the story of Harvey Milk. And it gave me hope. It gave me the hope to live my life; it gave me the hope that one day I could live my life openly as who I am and that maybe even I could fall in love and one day get married. [...]
Most of all, if Harvey had not been taken from us 30 years ago, I think he’d want me to say to all of the gay and lesbian kids out there tonight who have been told they are less than by their churches, or by the government, or by their families, that you are beautiful, wonderful creatures of value. And that no matter what everyone tells you, God does love you, and that very soon, I promise you, you will have equal rights federally across this great nation of ours.
Black’s speech was greeted by loud applause. Watch it:

February 22nd, 2009 at 9:44 pmThe only words I could think of as I watched him speak were, “he is truly a beautiful person, inside and out.”
February 22nd, 2009 at 9:47 pmThat came pure from his heart at best.
February 22nd, 2009 at 9:52 pmC’mon trolls, tell us how the very fabric of society is ripping apart even more now. Tell us how we’re in league with Satan for allowing those deviants who “choose” to be gay are corrupting our families and God’s vision for America.
Actually, the only people that I can see that may be tearing at the very fabric of society are republicans.
Job well done, Dustin!
February 22nd, 2009 at 10:13 pmGreat speech from the heart. Harvey Milk would be proud.
February 22nd, 2009 at 10:19 pmBest acceptance speech of the evening. It will be the topic of many news segments tomorrow, and it should be.
February 22nd, 2009 at 10:28 pmI’d love to see Sean Penn win the Oscar for Best Actor. I thought he was wonderful as Harvey Milk. Guy’s a great actor.
February 22nd, 2009 at 10:34 pmPretty good show so far, a dead joker and a dead homo are the big winners. I kinda like that movie about the kids of those American job stealing Indians too.

February 22nd, 2009 at 10:58 pmMore on the Ambece Law Firm (a “classless” act):
Debt collectors to pay $75,000 settlement
Peabody law firm also to implement new procedures
After a two-year investigation based on more than 100 complaints, a Peabody debt-collection law firm will pay $75,000 and implement procedures to protect indebted consumers under an agreement unveiled yesterday by the state attorney general’s office.
Thomas F. Reilly, the attorney general, alleged that representatives of the J.A. Cambece Law Office PC violated state and federal debt-collection laws by using profane language, placing calls to consumers at improper hours, making unauthorized communications with consumers at their places of employment, and failing to provide proof of the validity of debts.
Strong GOP traits to the core.
February 22nd, 2009 at 11:00 pmI think that was a wonderful post by jacambece. You really couldn’t goad a more revealing post out of a troll if you spent all night trying.

Are you ungrateful? Do you think you deserve more? better?
Really, your performance was worthy, but your constant nagging/whining for the spotlight on your terms has grown tiresome.
Enough w/ your drama laden posts.. I personally have come to the conclusion you are nothing but a drama queen, screeching your way into the spotlight. Where once I thought there may be glimmer of hope in your monologue, I now see that it was nothing but a false sense of bravado masked in tight fitting football pants all along. What i thought was muscle built through endless hours of hard work and self discipline is nothing but foam and cardboard.
To you, jacambece… I say good riddance, to a fake, a phoney, and a poor actor to boot… you really have not lived up to your potential in the eyes of this community, or any community you so wish to belong to to.
good riddance, young voyager!

If you have a point to make, rather than an insult to hurl, we’d like to hear it: that’s what these threads are about, and we all “shoot off our mouths” occasionally. We like to make jokes so that the often grim problems and situations which we’re discussing don’t simply leave us depressed.
Could you add something genuine to this thread? An original solution, or a new and different point of view? Or even a witticism that shows you can laugh at YOURSELF? We all do that–poke fun at each other and at OURSELVES. But you seem, at least in this thread tonight, only to attack, with no humor and precious little thought.

I lived in the Bay Area when Harvey Milk and mayor Moscone were murdered by that halfwit. It was the most shocking thing I’d ever experienced…until the Jim Jones mass murder and suicide. And since then so many more tragedies.
Harvey Milk was an advocate for love, and he was answered with violence. It’s time for the madness to end.

February 23rd, 2009 at 2:16 amYes, he is criticizing Sean Penn for traveling to Louisiana to help rescue stranded citizens and mocking him for having an armed escort in his boat.
Just like every other rescue team since there were reports of armed looters shooting people.
February 23rd, 2009 at 2:42 amIn fact as anyone old enough to remember knows the fire and rescue workers were even armed.
For some reason he feels that it wasn’t enough that a wealthy actor took weeks out of his life to spend it in the putrid sewage infested waters of New Orleans saving peoples lives.
Apparently he feels he had to also do so without any protection whatsoever from the armed looters and criminals roaming the area, even though everyone else had protection.

Philly is just being his ignorant troll self. Spewing out anything that floats to top of that toxic sump between his ears as long as it is derisive of a lefty. It doesnt have to make sense. He never does.

Yes, he is criticizing Sean Penn for traveling to Louisiana to help rescue stranded citizens and mocking him for having an armed escort in his boat.
Just like every other rescue team since there were reports of armed looters shooting people.

I kinda figures that out after the fact. Thanks anyways.
I notice the troll never came back to reply.
February 23rd, 2009 at 3:34 amI missed the Oscars; did Rourke not win?
February 23rd, 2009 at 5:22 amRourke didnt win. Sean Penn won best actor and Kate Winslet best Actress.
February 23rd, 2009 at 7:10 amYeah!
You don’t have to be gay to love the sentiment!
Thank you, better than an Oscar!
You rock!
February 23rd, 2009 at 7:36 amLance Black rocks!
He gave the most heart-felt, all-embracing acceptance speech. It wasn’t just for the audience there, it was truly for all of us listening. I’m not gay, but, let’s get with the program. That would be the Constitution . . . all men [women] are created equal and have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” That equal right includes the right to marry the person of your choice.
Marriage, after all, is not only a religious institution, an but a governmental institution, but as a religious institution, it is one from which we are not bound. I am free to reject it. If my gay bretheren choose to embrace it, why should my right to marry be any different than theirs?
February 23rd, 2009 at 7:47 amHate it when my thoughts backtrack and my typos interfere with my thoughts.
Bottom line? Lance said it best . . . listen to his video.
February 23rd, 2009 at 7:49 amMickey Rourke was brilliant in The Wrestler, Sean Penn’s Oscar in no way diminishes that. Penn acknowledged Mick. Get over it. We all love Mickey Rourke and just as he is, can be happy for Sean Penn.
Angel Heart . . . if you haven’t seen it. . . wow! must see.
February 23rd, 2009 at 7:58 amFor Angel Heart:
Mickey Rourke should have won best actor.
Robert Di Nero should have won best supporting just for pealing an egg.
and if Angelina Jolie deserved an Oscar for Girl Interrupted, Lisa Bone should have won an Oscar for Angel Heart. (Bonet’s chicken dance is iconic . . . hope it wasn’t a real chicken [PETA?])
February 23rd, 2009 at 8:22 amThat would be “peeling” and Lisa “Bonet”, I think.
February 23rd, 2009 at 8:24 amHollywood should be proud.
February 23rd, 2009 at 8:48 amBoth Blacks and Penns speeches were right on point. I loved the way Penn let us know about the wingnut hate mongers who where outside with their little signs saying, everyone in hollywood were going to hell. Well if thats the case, I’ll be in good company.
February 23rd, 2009 at 8:49 amI think the wingnuttery have their memes for the next couple of weeks….
February 23rd, 2009 at 9:15 amI really liked the way they honored each of the nominees in the lead actor and actress categories, with a former recipient saluting each. I know it took some time, but I found it very moving and appropriate.
On the other hand, I really didn’t like the way they did the “In Memoriam” segment, which is always one of my favorites. Once they got into the montage they should have left the stage and focused on those who have passed.
Unfortunately I didn’t get to see Lance Black’s acceptance speech live. It was classy and compelling.
February 23rd, 2009 at 11:25 amThanks for having the quote up. I am an orthodox Christian and was THRILLED by his comments… Sad that pastors everywhere (across other religions too, but as a Christian I will only speak for my own I guess) aren’t pasting his exact words – with no qualifiers – on their blogs. I wish he didn’t have to say it that way, but he does… Therefore I was thankful. If I can find his email address I’m going to tell him I think he’s a hero and his words are much closer to Jesus’ than many of us evangelicals.
February 23rd, 2009 at 1:56 pmCurrent TV is taking questions for Academy Award winning screenwriter of “Milk,” Dustin Lance Black to answer on TV. If you’ve got questions about making “Milk,” about his life, his story or anything else you can post them on Current.com/ask. Thanks!
