Product Description

Winner of 28 awards, The Gymnast explores the explosive relationship between two headstrong women - driven by their passion for excellence and, ultimately, each other. Already battling with a loveless marriage, Gymnast Jane (Dreya Weber, Lovely & Amazing) finds herself with little to live for after a devastating injury ends her competitive career but sparks soon fly when she finds herself drawn to an attractive female aerial performer. As the stunning pair join forces and prepares to audition their act for a Las Vegas show, the gravitational pull between the women becomes increasingly unavoidable. A visually stunning and intensely emotional experience, The Gymnast is a truly compelling lesbian love story fully deserved of its widespread acclaim.

inspired 2 Dec 2007
By RD VINE™ VOICE
Format:DVD
An absolutely beautiful and breath-taking movie. Jane is a former Gymnast who is caught in a loveless marraige and seems rather lost in life. One day she meets Nicole who convinces her to try out an aerial act requiring skill and grace. Her partner in this act is Selena, a closeted lesbian. Even before Jane knows about this a bond and attraction is forms between the two women. There are several complicating factors, besides Jane's marraige!
With the backdrop of the gymnastic type stuff it's a bittersweet love story worthy of praise. I just don't understand why all the lesbian movies worth watching have what feel like 'in the air' endings. Probably my one and only gripe with the movie.

If you like watching perfect well-trimmed bodies floating gracefully in air I recommend this film. Very scenic. The shots seem like pictures full of colour and hidden movement.
There's not much dialogue but it seemed fine. The emphasis is on these two bodies that interact in a sensual dance in mid-air and through it realise that love is just right there to be discovered and savoured.

Quality gay movie
Loved this movie ( see also a marine story that's also excellent). It's a gay love story simple as that but with good acting and bodies to die for. Read more

Appalling...
This is real feminist lesbian nonsense. It's made in a naff soft focus style and the sound seems to be delayed. It's badly made. Read more
