I cut my hair and stuff

NEW YORK — When “Glee” star Chris Colfer was 8, he began writing a novel. He wrote two pages, called it the first chapter and proudly showed it to his grandmother.

“She said, `OK, could use some development,’” laughed Colfer in a recent interview.

That memory was worked into his script for the movie “Struck by Lightning,” which premiered at this year’s Tribeca Film Festival.

Colfer wrote and stars in the movie. He plays Carson, an ambitious high-school senior who blackmails his fellow students into helping him get into Northwestern University.

The 21-year-old actor came up with the idea for the story when he was a teen as a way to vent about his teachers and classmates. He then taught himself how to write a screenplay.

“I would go to my local Borders in Fresno (Calif.) and I would study Sofia Coppola’s `Marie Antoinette’ published screenplay. I’d sit there – `cause I couldn’t afford it – and I’d read it and I’d read it and I’d teach myself how to screenwrite and how to, you know, frame everything.”

Chris Colfer’s ‘Struck by Lightning’ among slate on Croisette

Lightning Entertainment has acquired international rights to five features for sale at Cannes — led by Chris Colfer’s comedy “Struck by Lightning,” which just debuted at Tribeca.

Other titles that Lighting will bring to the Croisette include comedy “Servitude,” family film “Heaven’s Door,” South African thriller “One Last Look” and “Black South-Easter,” currently in production.

Colfer wrote and stars in “Struck by Lingtning” alongside Rebel Wilson, Allison Janney, Christina Hendricks, Dermot Mulroney and Sarah Hyland. Brian Dannelly directs the tale of a 17-year-old who’s suddenly struck by a bolt of lightning and devises a blackmailing scheme to improve his chances of getting accepted into a top college.

“Struck” is produced by David Permut, Roberto Aguire and Mia Chang, co-produced by Monica Aguirre Diez Barroso, Steve Longi and Mark Moran and executive produced by Jason Michael Berman, Chris Colfer, Glenn Rigberg and Lawrence Kopeikin. ICM and Traction Media sold international rights to Lightning Entertainment. […]

This is a nice review, but I really do NOT agree with making the assumption that it is a ‘Queer’ film and therefore will be entered into mainly ‘Queer’ festivals. For some reason the person who wrote this has made an assumption about Carson’s sexuality, yet all others who have been lucky enough to see the film have stated that it is NOT mentioned and is certainly NOT an issue. Brian Dannelly said that one of the wonderful things about the character of Carson Phillips is that his sexuality does NOT come into the equation. He said the ONLY thing that Carson says is that he is an ‘outed outsider’ In other words he is different and is made to feel that way all the time. This does NOT mean that he is Gay. Please DO NOT put your knowledge of a minor part of who Chris Colfer is as a person and project it onto the Character he is playing. If it is NOT said in the film, then we cannot assume that because Chris is gay then Carson is also. This film is NOT autobiographical. Carson is NOT Chris. Chris is an amazingly talented actor who could act anything and that includes ‘straight’ roles.
