A refreshing and witty reinvention of the coming-of-age comedy, Dorian Blues is a bright, cheerful story about a small-town young man who realizes why he's such a misfit - he's gay! Adolescence is proving a pain for the always-thinking Dorian. He's an outcast and the butt of classmates' fag jokes at high school. He's different and understands why when he reaches the conclusion that he's a "stereotypical gay." He soon announces this discovery to his homophobic, Nixon-loving dad. Before dad can throw him out of the house, he's off to NYU where our hero encounters a new world of coffee houses, sophisticates and handsome men.
