Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com
Not half-bad, this lightly engaging, potboiler romance concerns an ice skater (Lynn-Holly Johnson) who loses her vision in an accident but goes on to excel on the ice with the support of the guy (Robby Benson) who loves her. When she takes up with some rich schmuck, however, intertwining problems in her work and in love throw a shadow over everything. Nice performances, nice skating--the whole thing is a pleasant distraction. --Tom Keogh

Product Description
A young girl is on top of the world until a tragic accident dashes her hopes and dreams of becoming a world-class figure skater. Only with the help of those who love her can she prove to the world -- and herself -- that she still has the potential to realize her dreams.

5 out of 5 stars SENCILLAMENTE PRECIOSA!!!   February 12, 2008
C. Bellegarrigue (El Salvador)
Una verdadera delicia es ver este filme que practicamente nos deja con un nudo en la garganta; la historia de la patinadora que de la nada se hace increiblemente famosa, se convierte en promesa para las olimpiadas y que, de pronto, en el mejor momento de su llegada a la fama, sufre un terrible accidente que la deja casi ciega e incapacitada. Gracias a un coraje sin igual, una tremenda lucha contra la invalidez (aun contra si misma) y a unos seres queridos (su padre, su novio y su protectora)que lo haran todo por amor, lograran lo IMPOSIBLE!!!; una de esas peliculas que llevan la etiqueta de "INOLVIDABLE" con letras mayusculas!!, yo la primera vez que la vi fue en el cine, y francamente me hizo llorar... desde entonces he aprovechado toda oportunidad para verla de nuevo, pues es de esas peliculas que no se cansa uno nunca de verlas.

I was excited when my Niece mentioned she wanted this movie, because years ago I watched it and thought it was a wonderful movie that anyone would enjoy watching over and over again. the fact that I was able to get it from Amazon was terrific.


4 out of 5 stars Nostalgia at it's BEST   January 20, 2008
R. Northcut (Missouri)
Of course we've all seen this movie, but I couldn't wait to see it again. It arrived packaged well and very promptly.


4 out of 5 stars Very Good Movie   December 21, 2007
Anthony J. Marzullo (Lebanon, MO USA)
This was a very good movie. Very moving. It shows the strength and determination after a terrible accident and the love that comes from that.

This is one of my all time favorite movies and I had no idea that it was in DVD form. I was so excited to get this movie once again, as the VHS tape had broken some time back and I had not been able to find it to replace it. Thanks so much for offering this item!
