1969, New York. There is a police raid in yet another gay bar in Greenwich Village. Tired of being persecuted, Stonewall's customers do not give way. This rebellion constitutes a founding moment from which the movement for LGBTQ rights federates and organizes itself politically, which will give birth in 1970, to the first pride march, or Gay Pride. On the occasion of its 50th anniversary , this documentary looks back at its origins by exploring the Stonewall rebellion through intimate accounts of witnesses and activists whose lives were turned upside down by the birth of this movement.
Reviews
One of my all time favorites.
This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
