A cinematic wake and eulogy for the gay-rights militant, San Francisco city councilman, and ultimately martyr, when assassinated in 1978 by fellow councilman Dan White. Comfortably informal (with a genial group of interviewees and a good collection of still photos and film clips); not overly solemn or vehement; but touching and maddening in proper proportion. Narrated by Harvey Fierstein; written by Judith Coburn and Carter Wilson; directed by Robert Epstein. (1984) — Duncan Shepherd
