I haven't tried Alice B. Tolkas yet. I think that's the name of a gay group that Harvey Milk was a member of.
I think you're right.
A search brings up a gay/lesbian political group with that name based in San Francrisco, home of Milk and her birthplace.

Apparently she was a real life woman who was lovers with Gertrude Stein and they hosted authors and artists in their Paris home.
I don't see anything about her leading any political movements.

And I have a couple of movies on hold at the Lib. that you suggested.
Will let you know what they are and my thoughts after watching them.

It didn't do anything for me the first time so I thought I would give it another go.
I really like the opening credits with him jumping up and down to that music.

Sellers can be hard to stand in Kubrick's films; I was turned off by his characters, but he's refreshingly funny in others like The Party and A Shot in the Dark. Being There, I have to say it's his greatest role; very hard to pull off for most actors.
