indieWIRE Recent —
... Friday's other top venues included New York's Loews Village 7, where the film grossed $30,665, surprisingly topping Clearview Chelsea's $28,831. "The Village tends to play to a younger audience and these numbers suggest that word-of-mouth is working effectively with younger patrons," Focus' Adriene Bowles told indieWIRE.

Hell On Frisco Bay —
Perhaps you saw Milk in the Castro Theatre this weekend. Or perhaps you live in another city where it's playing, and saw the Castro Theatre in Milk. Perhaps, like me, you were moved by the film and impressed by Sean Penn's performance.
