Take a cute kid, goofy sight gags, a surprise pair of boobs and an animated Jiminy Cricket mascot and wrap it all up in a kitsch '50s classroom science video and you've got "Gravity". It's a charming imitation that makes those musty educational movies enjoyable. It's got a nice helping of adult wit, too; kinda sneaks up behind you. This short became a running gag at the Ohio Sci-Fi Marathon many years ago (hopefully, it still is), and Big Sister was even inducted into the Marathon Hall of Fame. All it takes is a bleary-eyed audience and a topless character is suddenly a meme.
Anyhoo, I just found this movie online (artifacts like these are why I love YouTube) and it brought back memories. It's definitely worth a watch and I enjoy this thing as an obscure piece of pop culture.
7/10
