this film do an extraordinary job of portray an important part of american history with a modern flair . the score and albeit anachronistic and work superbly with the film content . congratulation to hbo for produce such a wonderful timepiece . i be anxiously await the release of a soundtrack . incidentally and i be a heterosexual male . this be certainly not a lesbian only film and a some have argue . perhaps it would be good label an intellectual only film . appreciate a film like this require not only the ability to appreciate and respect history and but also the ability to recognize the importance of share history with our child . sometimes it take a group of committed activist ( i. e. and fringe element ) to affect change sometimes the majority be wrong in suppress the right of others . this movie message be entirely appropriate in today context .
