Actor Sean Penn is a dynamic person with a long
and stored career,
from the movies to celebrity marriages to political activism.
Never one to mince words,
in a recent interview with The New York Times,
it appears he's a little frustrated with Hollywood.
The actor saying he's been miserable on sets for 15
years.
He hasn't enjoyed himself in a movie since this one.
You must come out, come out your parents,
come out to your friends,
if indeed they are your friends,
come out to your neighbors,
come out to your fellow workers once and for all.
Let's break down the myths and destroy the lies in
distortion.
That is Milk, the 2008 film in which Sean Penn
plays civil rights leader Harvey Milk.
He even took home an Oscar for the role.
In the interview with The Times,
Penn shares the last time he was happy was on
that set and reflected on the casting.
Because he's a straight man playing a gay icon and
says that that's something that could never happen in today's
Hollywood,
saying, quote, no, it couldn't happen at a time like
this.
It's a time of tremendous overreach.
It's a timid and artless policy towards the human imagination.
