Trivia:
Moira Kelly injured her ankle during shooting, so to make it easier for her between scenes, she was moved around on a porter's truck (the sort of thing usually used to move boxes, etc.). moreGoofs:
Continuity: When Doug and Kate play hockey, the Zamboni has just cleaned the ice. Yet when they start playing the ice is still dirty. moreQuotes:
[Doug is carrying Kate's flowers and walking her back to her room. The long program is the next day]Doug: Man, this overnight thing is brutal. Why can't it be a double header, you know? Short program, long program. Same night, boom, we're outta here, you know what I mean?
Kate: Yeah, I know exactly what you mean.
Doug: It's like 'Enough already!' It's like... what's the word? Uh, y-you know what word I'm looking for? Wh-You know what I mean?
Kate: [trying to open her door] I don't know, uhhh, expectation?
Doug: No, no, when you, uh...
Kate: Anticipation? Excitement?

The Cutting Edge is a classic movie and one which I never get tired of watching.
The chemistry between Moira Kelly and D.B. Sweeney really sells this picture, even before you see the impressive scenery and fantastic skating sequences.
The script is filled with quotable gems, (It's not like his nose was perfect) and what could be a fairly thin story (that, OK, has been done before) is lifted firmly out of the cliche zone by first class direction, a thumping early 90's pop soundtrack and breathtaking choreography.
I can't fault this movie - it's one of my top five - and would recommend it as a family favourite.
This movie gets a very enthusiastic 10/10 from me.
