The Cutting Edge (8/10) Movie CLIP - She Has to Fly! (1992) HD

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
With the competition at the Olympics at an all-time high, Coach Pamchenko (Roy Dotrice) convinces Doug (D.B. Sweeney) and Kate (Moira Kelly) to practice an intense and possibly illegal figure skating move.

FILM DESCRIPTION:
Can a rough and tumble hockey player and a snooty ice dancer find love and a gold medal at the same time? That's the burning (or more appropriately freezing) question in this romantic drama. Kate Moseley (Moira Kelly) is a world-class figure skater training for the Olympics; she has genuine talent, but years of being spoiled by her wealthy family have made her all but impossible to work with. Doug Dorsey (D.B. Sweeney) is a hockey player with drive, skill, and a full complement of arrogance; his team is also on the fast track to the Olympics. Unfortunately, an eye injury suffered during a game affects Doug's peripheral vision enough to put him on the bench for the rest of the season. At the same time, Kate's colossal ego scares off yet another skating partner, and her coach, Anton (Roy Dotrice), needs to find a replacement as soon as possible. Desperate to stay in Olympic competition, Doug agrees to try working as Kate's partner, even though he has a hockey player's macho contempt for figure skating. Needless to say, the first few practices between Kate and Doug do not go well, but in time they learn to work together and become a pair to be reckoned with both on and off the ice. The Cutting Edge was released within a few months of the 1992 Winter Olympic Games.

HIT US UP:

[stacyburton]

The whole routine is a metaphor for their relationship, when they go halfway, the feelings get hurt. Only when they confess their true feelings do they nail it

[thesilvershining]

D.B. Sweeney is such an underrated actor... watch at 0:50 how he does that little clever smile because he knows exactly how to push Kate’s buttons and get her to agree to do this. It’s not about convincing her she can do it, it’s about voicing the possibility that she *can’t* do it, which flares up her stubborn willful nature. And when she’s yelling at him he’s trying to look all serious but inside he’s trying not to smile, while Pamchenko knows exactly what he just witnessed and smiles at them. Love everything about this movie!

[scottibrown]

Every time I watch this scene, I can just feel my head go OW every time her head gets near the surface of the ice

[courtneybilyeu]

I always wished that I can see the full Pamchenko in its entirety. But since it’s probably an impossible move that even the most accomplished skaters couldn’t do it, I’d love to see the simulation of it!

[ceciliaeklund]

It have been said nothing is impossible for the ones that don't have to do it themselves. In this case Dough and Pamtjenko did not take any chances, it was Kate´s body that hit the ice again and again!

[babygirllynn]

you can tell he feels bad and worried about her

[nenabunena]

Ice skating in pairs is more dangerous for the girl, lol!

[heathbroussard]

Every time I see this scene I say ow every time the mannequins head almost hits the ice

[philparkes-]

You think they’d practise with a crash helmet or something. No regard for H&S back in the day

[andrewfyakim]

It would be nice to be able hear the audio...

[vr]

I see where Blades of Glory got the idea to parody figure skating lol

[edss]

This is why when my bf tried to take me to the ice rink i was saying this is no joke! And we r going for the gold

[fedexuhlplusterminal]

Go Mr Mrs skate ice people tossing her like that gangster.

[Kat-hbie]

Yeah.... death spirals don’t work like that. This isn’t an actual move.

[radhikashankar]

I am searching for a movie..it’s abt skating. During practice the girl wears headgear so that she doesn’t get hurt..I had seen this movie long back and I can’t remember the name of the movie..and I don’t think it’s an old movie which I saw

[sherylalisbo]
