I love the theme song from this movie. I watched the remake of this movie recently and i was moved. Even though i never watched the original, i'm sure it was just as moving as well. Movies like this that feature a person having all the talent in the world, almost losing it all, and then having to fight back from adversity, are the best ones. They inspire people that no matter what comes your way, you can overcome it by having those around that really love you and want the best for you.
Just watched this again after many years and it brings back all the emotions and yes even tears!! What an amazing soundtrack, story, and what a powerhouse voice Melissa Manchester has!! Brilliant!!
Rate the film "5 Stars"! Watched "Ice Castles" yesterday on "Turner Classic Movies"- already it's one of my "Faves"! (One of the most INSPIRING movies I've ever seen!) "Through the Eyes of Love" has always been among my favorite "Movie Theme Songs"- but now I can "FULLY" appreciate the lovely Marvin Hamlisch melody even more... now that I can hear it "THROUGH THE EYES OF LOVE"! I love the movie, the song, the actors (especially the girl) & it's damn near a "PERFECT MOVIE"! What's not to like?
Saw the original movie, loved it. Love; Looking through the eyes of love by Melissa Manchester, makes me very emotional, I cry, but now it's with a great deal more wisdom. thank you so much for posting it.
This is a very touching movie I've ever seen in my life, it's way back in 1970's I vied this movie when I was still in first year high school. I love the movie very much. Now that I have already a teenage son, I always telling him repeatedly about this movie and he patiently kept on listening. One time he ask me to rent a DVD of this film from a nearest DVD Rental Shop but sad to note that It's no longer available.
4:28 really touches me for some reason. In the remake, the coach is clapping and cheering with everyone else, but, pretty much like all other comparisons between the movies, this one came out way better and emotional.
See, what they should've done here, is that when she's coming up on the flowers, for Robby Benson to see them first and then go slip sliding all over the ice to pick them up before she can trip over them. Then a cool slow-motion sequence of Lynn-Holly tripping not over the roses but over Robby as he tries to get out of the way...and then an abrupt cut to a sex scene in which Robby gets a charley horse in his leg as a result of the injury of Lynn-Holly falling over him.
my mom loved this movie and she said my parents watched this movie when my dad proposed to my mom. :) When I saw the movie being shown on tv in the 90s, I've loved it. still do and I was shocked robby was the voice of beast which at that time I was watching too as a kid :))))
this movie will always be great, though i do wish they could have put in the triple axel that Lexie was able to do. in the days this movie was made, those were barely able to be done by men. IRL, but in the book, Lexie was able to do them. but this was the days of elegance on ice, not just a jumping contest.
God, i miss the sound and feel of ice...it was the closest to heaven on earth for me. disabled, ill never feel it again...
@LadyDeerskin But that's precisely the point, she wasn't supposed to do it. It was illegal to try it in competition, because at the time it was thought too risky for women to attempt. I don't always think skating is better now because of the triple -- back then the emphasis was on ALL the elements, technical AND artistic. I think skating as a whole was better off, less risky, and certainly more elegant and beautiful to watch.
Like hell, Melissa is simply the best. What a perfect movie score for this film. If I had one wish it might be for a time machine to return to the days when the great ones were performing. They will never pass this way again and I feel sorry for the ones that have to settle for the cheap crap today.
@JAlFrazier01 I "Second" your emotion (see my comment above). If you like this kind of "Tearjerker" with a "Love Themesong" 3 films come to mind: 1. "Somewhere In Time" with Steve Reeve & Jane Seymour; 2. "Summer of 42" with Jennifer O' Neil; & finally # 3. "Breezy" with William Holden (beautiful themesong by Shelby Flint). These kinds of Romantic Movies & Lovesongs aren't being made anymore; the quality of Entertainment is (I agree) "Cheap Crap"! I've provided a "Time Machine" of "Good Films"~
Very fluid, nicely done camera work here. (I hope she didn't crash into the camera man at 0:53). It's almost like the camera is a kind of dance partner, like we're dancing with her.
1978....i was in college and this movie, the song, the excellent performance of Lynn Holly Johnson gave me goosebumps. 2011...as I watch this youtube , again I still get the same goosebumps. The impact of the soundtrack on perfectly-timed skating performance of Johnson is so perfect. My all time 1978 movie. ..still makes me tear-eyed.
Thank you .... for posting this ... it takes me back to a time when I was young and actually knew what it was to dream. A beautiful movie and a timeless song.
The comment someone made about this movie having bad acting. This person doesnt know what they are talking about. This movie had great acting and actors. Even the music is good. This person obliviously doesnt know talent.
In 1988 I got married and my mom and my hubby his mom walk down the isle to that song I wanted dedicated to them cause my mom was the world to me and so is she to him
this movie is a total rip off. I cried, noy only because of the story, but because of the terrible acting the actors and actresses do. That isnt blind, if anything, shes deaf, dumb, and ugly. YUK!!!!!!!
@zba1231 You've gotta be kiddin'! Even if you didn't enjoy the story or acting- how can U not like the "Amazingly Beautiful Themesong"? (U didn't mention about the "song"!) I think you're "Pulling Everyone's Leg"; in my opinion, it's among "MOST INSPIRING" & "BEAUTIFULLY SCRIPTED/ACTED MOVIES EVER MADE"! Over 1000 people who commented: "LOVED" this Movie; only 8 people didn't according to the "Poll" above! U are in the "vast minority", my friend: If U think "Girl" is "Ugly"- U are "Uglier"!
@AkatsukiCraze To really understand the song you need to see the original movie. It's been a while since I've seen it but it truly is one of my favorites. She's a small town girl who gets her dream of becoming a professional skater. The fame or fortune and loses her humility. One night there was a fund raising party at the skating rink in her honor. Against the instructions of her coach she decides to skate. If I remember right she had been drinking. She accidentally skates into some
of the stage lights that are in a corner on the ice. She heads her head causing her to go blind. She can see light and a few shadows but that's all. She has a blank look on her face because she can't see. I don't want to spoil the whole movie for you. See it! Hope you love it as much as I do.
Entonces estando parcialmente ciega se deprime y se tira literalmente al fondo de su habitación.... se encierra.... y el novio la tiene que sacar casi a patadas de la misma para que tome valor y patine parcialmente ciega... a menos las patadas sirvieron de algo en esta ocasión... he he he he he he
En esta escena ella está patiando ciega.... el novio la entrenó para que se aprendiera todos los movimientos.. por eso cuando se cae por las flores... el novio le dice: olvidamos las flores.... la saca y todos felices aunque sin entender un pito porque se calló... ella le dice al novio: Stay with me... quedate conmigo... y no entiendo que le responde el pana... no recuerdo... el rollo de la pelicula es que ella tuvo una caida fuerte que la dejó parcialmente ciega...
El movimiento de brinco y tijera extendida en el aire... o apertura de piernas a 180 grados tremendo movimiento... hay que considerar la dificultad... y luego un saltito con giro doble en el aire... tremendo... artisticamente belo.... belissima.... bravo....
i am so in love with robbie benson ..why oh why didnt i find one like him ? *( i wont stop until the day i die He is my ideal inside and out beautiful human................ being !
Terrible costuming back then, making half the leotard look like a schoolgirl outfit. Definitely prefer the outfit and the stream-lined skating in the new version.
@whitespirit26 Skating costumes were simpler then, we didn't have the spandex and glitter like today. It's hardly fair to judge the skating fashions of yesteryear by today's standards.
Plus, if you'd actually watched the movie you'd also know that Lexie was wearing her late mother's skating dress, to honor her. Which is also why she says, before she starts, "here's to my mom."
Yes even as I started watching this video I am already crying. I JUST LOVE THE SONG AND THE MOVIE, The famous phrase for this movie I think is when what's his name? said..... "We forgot about the flowers". Thank you for posting
The ending scene manages to be very powerful and funny at the same time (the latter in the case of the whole tripping because she couldn't see the flowers). But that makes it all the more powerful because now, despite all her hard work and success, she needs her bf.
@Anon5241 I don't think it's powerful because she needs Nick, it's powerful because up until then neither the judges nor the audience knew she was blind. She skated a stunning routine, which would have been amazing for a sighted person. The ovation she got was for that, and it only made it more monumental when they realized that she'd done all that without being able to see, after she trips over the flowers. Nick is there to lend her support, but knows that ultimately she can stand on her own.
i dont understand why they remade this movie, it may be an older movie but it's still just as powerful as ever and the only difference between this and the new one is that its filmed slightly differently and has diferent actors. i dont see how thats necessary? especially since all the actors from the original did such a great job and its an amazing movie
@mshayzel10 CAUSE HOLLYWOOD IS RUNNING OUT OF GOOD ORIGINAL STORIES THAT BRING PPL TO MOVIE THEATERS. I WAS APPALLED WHEN I SAW THERE WAS A "NEW" ICE CASTLES. THE THING WITH THIS ONE IS THAT IT HAS BRILLIANT QUALITY ACTORS AS OPPOSED TO THE 2010 VERSION WHO HAS THE CRAPPIEST OF LEADING YOUNG ACTORS. THE GIRL (WHOSE NAME I DON'T EVEN CARE TO KNOW) IS DULL, HAS THE FACE OF AN EGG AND DOES NOT PROJECT ANYTHING. ONE NEVER MANAGES TO REALLY 'FEEL' FOR HER AND THE GUY, WELL...
i dont understand why they remade this movie, it may be an older movie but it's still just as powerful as ever and the only difference between this and the new one is that its filmed slightly differently and has diferent actors. i dont see how thats necsasry? especially since all the actors from the original did suc a great job and its an amazing movie
Estimated friend, if you want to listen again this song and an endless number of successes of the love I suggest you to visit Radio MUSICA PARA MIMOS - looks for his direction URL in Google ( search Musica para Mimos in Google)-. best romantic music of all the times in Internet, is great, is very good ...!!!
I forgot why I'm a huge fan of Mellisa Manchesters - what a voice! Wonder what ever happened to Robby Benson? He was a great actor back in the day too. This film is a fav & missed it on TV tonite so thx 4 allowing me 2 cry again!
if I ever win the lottery I will sponser some child that loves ice skating but cant afford the money to make their dreams come true. I love ice skating :-)
Even after 30+ years, the beauty and artistry of this routine is still evident. Absolutely beautiful. And to think someone got the "bright" idea to do a remake. Nothing can match Lynn-Holly Johnson's hauntingly beautiful performance.
I completely agree! I was 6yrs old when this came out. It set my mind that this is romance. Needless to say, I set my standards high when it came to love....true love....
Her skating style reminds me of Dorothy Hamill. Interestingly enough, Dorothy had to wear glasses doing the School Figures! She is a bit taller than Dorothy but both are beautiful Women and beautiful Skaters
I loved this movie and its soundtrack so much...Lynne holly johnson and robby benson just made it real great on screen during those times...so touching and inspiring...Lynn's performance was indeed amazing...
The song was nominated f or an Oscar....and I remember how figure skating was more concerned with the artistry than all the stupid triples and quads they do now...such a shame...and Johnson i believe medaled in the US Nationals, then went right to the Ice Capades..I wonder how well she would have done if she had remained an amateur...
@lookingfortalent2007 Not likely. It would cause a pretty good slice, but probably not cut all the way through. I know because I cut rose canes yesterday in my garden, and they are pretty tough.
i haven't seen the movie and i just discovered this song is actually the theme song of this movie, and just from this end part i can guess what it's about, and it's already so touching that i cry while i am watching it...
Every time I watch this ending I think it's one of the best ever. I used to think Westside Story had the best, although sad, ending, How do you top this? Where can you go from the best? The music, the acting, the timing, the editing and most of all a performance that should have gotten an Oscar. Way to go Lexi !
to some it may seem she cheated but we know they kept that info from the judges because she knew they would not let her comepete

Yes even as I started watching this video I am already crying. I JUST LOVE THE SONG AND THE MOVIE, The famous phrase for this movie I think is when what's his name? said..... "We forgot about the flowers". Thank you for posting

The ending scene manages to be very powerful and funny at the same time (the latter in the case of the whole tripping because she couldn't see the flowers). But that makes it all the more powerful because now, despite all her hard work and success, she needs her bf.

@Anon5241 I don't think it's powerful because she needs Nick, it's powerful because up until then neither the judges nor the audience knew she was blind. She skated a stunning routine, which would have been amazing for a sighted person. The ovation she got was for that, and it only made it more monumental when they realized that she'd done all that without being able to see, after she trips over the flowers. Nick is there to lend her support, but knows that ultimately she can stand on her own.

i dont understand why they remade this movie, it may be an older movie but it's still just as powerful as ever and the only difference between this and the new one is that its filmed slightly differently and has diferent actors. i dont see how thats necessary? especially since all the actors from the original did such a great job and its an amazing movie

@mshayzel10 CAUSE HOLLYWOOD IS RUNNING OUT OF GOOD ORIGINAL STORIES THAT BRING PPL TO MOVIE THEATERS. I WAS APPALLED WHEN I SAW THERE WAS A "NEW" ICE CASTLES. THE THING WITH THIS ONE IS THAT IT HAS BRILLIANT QUALITY ACTORS AS OPPOSED TO THE 2010 VERSION WHO HAS THE CRAPPIEST OF LEADING YOUNG ACTORS. THE GIRL (WHOSE NAME I DON'T EVEN CARE TO KNOW) IS DULL, HAS THE FACE OF AN EGG AND DOES NOT PROJECT ANYTHING. ONE NEVER MANAGES TO REALLY 'FEEL' FOR HER AND THE GUY, WELL...

Love this song and the movie. It still moves me to tears after all these years.
FYI- Robby Benson produces and directs on the stage and on TV. And he was the voice of the Beast in Disney's Beauty and the Beast.

Even after 30+ years, the beauty and artistry of this routine is still evident. Absolutely beautiful. And to think someone got the "bright" idea to do a remake. Nothing can match Lynn-Holly Johnson's hauntingly beautiful performance.

I completely agree! I was 6yrs old when this came out. It set my mind that this is romance. Needless to say, I set my standards high when it came to love....true love....

Her skating style reminds me of Dorothy Hamill. Interestingly enough, Dorothy had to wear glasses doing the School Figures! She is a bit taller than Dorothy but both are beautiful Women and beautiful Skaters

The song was nominated f or an Oscar....and I remember how figure skating was more concerned with the artistry than all the stupid triples and quads they do now...such a shame...and Johnson i believe medaled in the US Nationals, then went right to the Ice Capades..I wonder how well she would have done if she had remained an amateur...

not to get technical here, during such a touching moment, but wouldn't an ice skate cut right through flowers?
lookingfortalent2007 1 year ago
@lookingfortalent2007 Not likely. It would cause a pretty good slice, but probably not cut all the way through. I know because I cut rose canes yesterday in my garden, and they are pretty tough.

Every time I watch this ending I think it's one of the best ever. I used to think Westside Story had the best, although sad, ending, How do you top this? Where can you go from the best? The music, the acting, the timing, the editing and most of all a performance that should have gotten an Oscar. Way to go Lexi !
