Last weekend, I saw the trailer for Milk, Gus Van Sant's bio-pic on Harvey Milk, the gay mayor from San Francisco who are shot to death by 1978. The early buzz is quite good, but I was surprised to see glimpses of what looked like Lucas Grabeel, who is better know as Ryan from the High School Musical Trilogy.
I did a little research and IMDB confirms that Grabeel is in the pic. A little more digging led me to his website, which for a Hollywood celebrity of any level, is amazing for it's lack of lame animations and 8x11.5 glossy shallowness. I mean this is the splash page:
But I digress. Back in May, Grabeel wrote to in his forum announcing his role. It's an interesting read, explaining who Milk was, how he died, playing up working with Sean Penn and Gus Van Sant, saying that he isn't gay but playing a role. It's interesting and on balance... I think a good response.
