When you go to the new Gus Van Sant movie Milk, you also get to see Jeff Koons’s first feature film cameo. It’s short but Koons gets some lines and a credit (he was also in the credits – in a thank-you – for the 1990 pic Maniac Nurses) and a listing on imdb.com. He plays Art Agnos who ran against Harvey Milk for the State Legislature and in 1988 was elected mayor of San Francisco.
