Super cheesy!

(1 out of 5 stars)
"I saw this when it debuted on TV in the late 70s, so for $5 I bought it to see if it was as I remembered. The storyline is really basic, but it might be worthwhile if you are a fan of any of the actors and want to see their earlier/more obscure work. Don Johnson in particular was quite adorable in those days, and does a not half bad job. Lisa Reeves seems to have disappeared, too bad. Also Howard Duff, Veronica Hamel, Deborah Raffin (she's actually the star of the movie). Two stars for nostalgia, but ...
Warning: the quality of this DVD is horrendous. Really bad sound, lots of tape jump and scratches, and the colour correction changes abruptly part way through the movie. No stars if I could!
Also, if you are a ski fan, I'll save you the trouble - there is one extended freestyle scene, although some crafty editing has several shots repeated, all to the soundtrack from the Young & the Restless, super cheese! There are also a bunch of ski jumps shown as part of a competition, but they likely don't compare to the sport today."
