'Milk' Debuts at No. 9 on Daily Box Office Chart

There is much for me to be thankful for today -- good health, a loving husbear, fabulous bio and homo families -- and the first opportunity in a long time to write about something other than Prop 8.

Box office numbers from the LA Weekly's entertainment reporter Nikki Finke for "Milk" on its opening day are very impressive. From Finke's blog Deadline Hollywood:

The Wednesday opening of Gus Van Sant's Oscar-touted pic Milk starring Best Actor nomination shoo-in Sean Penn made $264K, good enough for 9th place. Focus Features has released the well reviewed biopic into 35 theaters in 19 major cities. Look for it to score the best per screen average of the holiday weekend.

Happy thanksgiving holiday to all, and remember, tomorrow starting at 4 PM at San Francisco's City Hall Polk Street steps is the annual vigil and march commemorating the assassination of Harvey Milk and Mayor George Moscone. I'll be there and hope to see you!
