And yet sleeping over her house was how my crush got some time out of the home environment with her town drunk father. When I think of writing a Melody-like story based on my youth, someone analogous to her would probably be a character and I find it hard to picture her as helpful and sympathetic. I find it hard ever to think of her any other way, and was shocked when she saw me at an event in another town a couple years later and greeted me with enthusiastic friendliness. I saw her as a bitch who hated me, notably around 6th grade. That friend’s father went on the destroy my woods and build on the land around us. My 4th grade crush, in what could have been a Melody-like scenario, had a single friend in town. She would have helped establish the broader negative impression. Heck, I can think of an example offhand, even though she’s nobody I ever found attractive. I try to be understanding of root causes when I see that now, but it’s not so easy when you’re younger. Building it takes Every Single Time without that Once. They also didn’t have to be that way all the time. Sadly, that became my mental image of girls at an early enough age to stick. If any girl had behaved toward me the way Kate did to Doug initially, it would have been all over. Rachelle Ottley is still pretty awesome, though. I still love it, but I don’t find Moira Kelly as attractive as I once did. I never went to see it, catching it years later on video. Funny thing is, I remember hearing about the film when it was in production and being intrigued but skeptical. Throw figure skating and romance together and it’s all over. He also played ice hockey, which did a number on his knee. It was roller skating that my father competed in, in roller dancing pairs. They used my physical problems and the presumption I’d be unable to do it as a reason not to spend the excessive money skates for me would have cost. Everyone but me ice skated, to some degree, on the bogs. My father loved it and I grew up with that. However, I have always loved figure skating. Naturally I like it because it’s a romantic comedy, albeit more dramatic than some. We, and her family, sometimes quote it as if it were The Princess Bride or something. Between me and the wife, Three copies of it came into the marriage. It’s the umpteenth time I’ve seen it, but it had been a while. Watched The Cutting Edge on Amazon Prime last night. Posted in Bee gees, Business, Family, Girls, History, Melody, Movies, Music, Personal The Cutting Edge That was intriguing, since I had a relatively similar story in my head inspired by First of May.Īnyway, congratulation for fifty years of Melody happiness. I only discovered it from clips being used with the associated Bee Gees songs on YouTube. For that matter, it ought to be available as a never-goes-away streaming option on some of the usual suspect platforms.
Perhaps some would discover it if it popped up places like Amazon. It’s a shame nobody arranged a modest 50th anniversary release, big enough to satisfy the fans who didn’t get a DVD somehow.

The March and April dates, in modern times, would have been chosen to avoid being up against summer blockbuster release dates, but this predated that direction in movie marketing. Perhaps the timing also made a difference. Perhaps it was a case of lessons learned that helped lead to it keeping the correct name and presumably being more intelligently marketed in Japan and places like Argentina. That was the decision of the distributor. In the UK, it was released, even more bizarrely than the US change, as SWALK, for sealed with a loving kiss. In the last two and elsewhere around the world, it was released under Melody, the name God and Alan Parker intended. That was also a few months before my parents were officially divorced, and about 13 months after my father had left and they were separated.
It was apparently released here as “To Love Somebody.” Seeing it at the time might well have changed my life completely, assuming I wasn’t just bored and wondering why I’d been dragged to it. It was just days before my 10th birthday, and coincided with when I had my first, confusing, crush. I never realized that was the first release. It was released in the US March 28, 1971, having been filmed spring and summer of 1970. So I would be remiss if I failed to note the 50th anniversary of the first release date of Melody. However, it’s still a good movie, albeit imperfect and a freshman effort by the writer and producer, and with an odd non-ending. I’ve moved on from my obsession with the film Melody that dominated this place for a while. I’ve been quiet here, even thinking about taking it down.
