    Yep. Still in love with him. *nods*

    Awesome, truly awesome.

    God, I love him.

    I don’t know what I love more: his talent, his just complete coolness, or his hotness.

    I’m glad you posted this in case people hadn’t seen it. Where I first saw it yesterday, the comments where pretty encouraging. A lot of straights were supportive of him and felt the could relate to him.

    ed begley sr. carried his oscar for advise and consent with him everywhere. he kept it in the trunk of his car and showed it off every chance he got.

    I don’t find him hot at all. I do find it weird that a 35 year old man is sporting zach ephron hairstyle though.

    @ew & cole – Maybe a better idea would be listening to him instead of critiquing his hair and face.

    @Sebbe:

    i tried, but his fugness is too distracting

    He is calm, collected, and genuine. He is also handsome and not over the top like most in hollywood. I’d say he’s damn sexy all around.

    @EW, if you aren’t attracted to someone, that doesn’t make them “ugly.”

    This guy is a total hero to a lot of folks, who also find him attractive. I think you doth protest too much!

    KB:

    Harvey Milk was the hero. Dustin Lance Black isn’t a hero. Let’s use the word “hero” when it is appropriate. We are so quicky to throw that word around when it isn’t warranted.

    @Tonytigger – Well in a way he was. Many people my age had never even heard of Harvey Milk before this movie. DLB was able to bring the story out in a way that made it interesting to people. I’m not saying once is better than the other or DLB is a bigger hero, he is not. But there are varying degrees of greatness.
