Welcome!
This is the blog of The Renaissance Charter School's senior elective class, "Delving Into Documentaries." This blog was put together in the spring semester. In the fall semester, we watched Food, Inc.; Forks Over Knives; GasLand; and An Inconvenient Truth. Students wrote reflection papers, journal entries, and essays. Instead of these assignments, this semester, students will write on this blog. After each film, they will post a review/critique. Each week, they will post a response to a controversial question related to the film we are currently studying. Visit our Wiki to learn more!

Review#2: The Times of Harvey Milk
The movie was inspiring, to many people just not one type of people. I think the diversity and the way the plot went along made people want to keep watching to witness the success that Harvey had made. Regardless that he was assassination his memory never died, so in essence he lived on. His story was made into a production and that means so many people were informed about what he did and stood up for. His courage and charisma made San Francisco and gay people unite and stand up for what they believe and and need. The movie has a lot of people in it who is able to comment and make the whole ordeal more surreal and it shows how Harvey really did affect a lot of people. The film is good, and very informative; it is not biased in the sense that opinions are shared, but not all are agreed with. The love and companionship displayed is remarkable and I believe that is pulling all the details together and making it worthwhile to watch.
