Defying Gravity

Running time: N/A

Here is one of those boy-meets-boy, boy-loses-boy, boyfriend-gets gay-bashed, boy-finds-love-and-his-true-self stories I want to see on TV, but my cable operator doesn't offer QTV... Suffice to say that Defying Gravity is not your typical love story... it's better. Poor Griff, studly frat boy that everyone wants to be friends with, he's ''the ultimate boy next door,'' and has a great friend with his fraternity brother Todd. Griff also has a big secret: Pete. Griff and Pete get together for trysts now and again, but until he is given an ultimatum by Pete, Griff tries to pretend he's straight. Not until things turn dangerous, can Griff face the reality of who he is. A story far too common in real life, where in order to be accepted by the most popular, one must sacrifice their true identity. Defying Gravity is the story of hidden feelings, revealing the ultimate truth within and the courage that goes along with that discovery. --Chris Lion
