| Ice Castles, 1978 |
How much did you love Ice Castles in the early 1980s? The movie first opened in 1978, but I was too young to see it in theaters. I'm guessing I must have caught it on TV because I do remember it.
What little girl in the late '70s/early '80s didn't enjoy Ice Castles? Everything about this movie was beautiful. The lead actors. The story line. The theme song, "Through The Eyes of Love" preformed by Melissa Manchester. I remember "Through the Eyes of Love" was popular at dance recitals, weddings and couples skates in the early 1980s.
It was impossible not to adore Robby Benson as Nick. Through his tough love style, he inspires Lexie (Lynn-Holly Johnson), a talented ice skating star blinded in a tragic accident, never to give up. He sticks by her side throughout her best and worst times.

Yep!!!! "Through the Eyes of Love" was the song at my wedding. Unfortunately, the feeling did end, for one of us. I should have married Robby instead...
i love figure skating movies! i've never seen this, but you better believe i'm netflixing it ASAP!
This movie was the single worse experience I ever had at the theatre. Forced to go with a girl who asked me and our mom's worked together. The movie sucked for me and I had her thinking I was her boyfriend for three months.
Ahh yes, I love this movie!!
OMG NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I never saw it, but was forced to sing this in 6th grade choir - and now it is back in my head again.
