One of the greatest DVD's I have seen
Added 11/13/2009
I originally rented this off of Netflix and then bought it as I fell in love with this movie. It deals with a frat brother named Griff who has this secret and is unable to come to terms with his sexuality and does his best to hide it until his frat brother who he has been having an affair with gets beaten so bad that they don't know if he will survive or not. Griff saw the truck involved but by coming forward his sexuality might come to the forefront so he lies at first but goes into a depression trying to deal with doing the right thing. Griff's best friend, Todd, knows there is something wrong and he takes Griff away from it all to talk to him to find out what is up. Griff finally spills it all to Todd while chatting up on a mountain top and finally admits he is in love with Pete and Todd more or less tells him that if he loves Pete like Todd loves his girl then Griff should do whatever it takes to be with Pete. A really nice coming to terms with yourself movie and since I have been there done that then it meant so much more to me and of course brought me to tears more then once.

DEFYING TERRIBLE
Added 7/27/2009
Defying Gravity has for some reason gotten some good feedback online. I don't understand why in the slightest. The script sucks, as does some of the acting, and the characters are badly written. Also, it's supposed to be a "gay" film yet there isn't a whole lot of gay content in the movie. There are way more straight characters than gay in this movie. Some of the straight characters even say homophobic things, which got under my skin. Do yourself a fever and defy Defying Gravity.

Zero gravity; defying entropy
Added 1/31/2009
A low-budget film, kind of a cross between a made-for-tv movie and a soap opera, but more poorly done. If you cut the scenes in which people stare into the distance thoughtfully, the movie would be a half-hour shorter. Good for people who want to exercise by shifting uncomfortably. It has one redeeming feature: Daniel Chilson -- who, unsurprisingly, has not acted before or since -- is photogenic and terminally cute. He actually shows that it is possible for one person to have too much cuteness. The slight facial twitches and sensitive eye-squints are particularly endearing.

Wonderful Love Story
Added 1/14/2009
Defying Gravity is an amazing well-told story that will ring true for a much broader audience than just the LGBT community. Setting the film in the traditionally homophobic enclaves of the Greek community allows the story to progress in a very realistic fashion. The acting is well-done and believable, even in the emotionally charged moments of the film. I cannot recommend Defying Gravity enough.
