THE CUTTING EDGE
On February 21, 1988 Doug Dorsey, a member of the US
Olympic hockey team is late getting to the rink for a match and literally runs
into Kate Moseley, stuck up and spoiled pairs skater. During the game Dorsey
suffers a career ending eye injury, while Kate later falls during her program
and doesn’t win the gold. [00:11 to 6:15] Two years later Kate has driven away
eight skating partners with her arrogant attitude. Her coach Anton Pamchenko convinces Doug to work with
her. They rub each other the wrong way at first, but eventually start working
together. Even though she has a fiancée, Kate and Doug kiss at a New Year’s Eve
party. As her relationship with her fiancée crumbles, Kate and Doug manage to
make the US Olympic team when one of their competitors falls during her
routine. Kate and Doug engage in an off and on attraction to each other. Doug
finally confesses he loves her just before they take to the ice for the medal
round. They win the gold and Kate agrees she loves him too as they kiss.
A passable romantic drama. It almost veers over into
sappiness at times. To me it seems predictable, but you might like it.
