MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

arlenowitz Great one-liners in this timeless romantic comedy of a girl destined to wear a metal brace her entire life, which has caused her to feel "different" from other girls. But she comes to have an ingenious idea to change her destiny and possibly, just possibly find romance and maybe even love. For the first time in her life she experiences life in it's splendor, ups, downs, fears that she faces, but all in all, experiences things she never thought were possible. This film always puts a smile on my face. I've searched and searched for it on DVD, but no luck yet. Hopefully, it will be made or has already been made in DVD format. I highly recommend it.

moonspinner55 Kristy McNichol gives a good if uneven performance as a crippled flautist--working her way through a series of romantic losers here at home--who travels to a French ski-resort and gets a bright idea: she replaces her cumbersome leg-brace with a cast and finds guys wanting her sexually for the first time. Bumpy romantic comedy begins well, but is really two different pictures, with Kristy's musician going from shyly seductive girl to mercurial, exasperating kid. There are some savvy moments, but mostly in the quietly charming first hour. Once in France, where McNichol hooks up with incredibly patient photographer Michael Ontkean, the filmmakers get too silly, replacing the satiric wit with cheap, blurry sentiment and a pointless discotheque sequence that goes on...and on. **1/2 from ****

bigpappa1--2 A crippled musican with a leg brace takes a trip to France with her leg in a cast to see what people will treat her like when they don't know she is handicapped. A very appealing film and Kristy MacNichol has never been so likeable. An underrated classic. One of my favorite films of all time. Enjoy 9 out of 10.

Jared X Even Kristy McNichol can't save this movie. She plays a world-famous concert flautist with two flaws: her physical disability, which appears to be a missing lower limb of her right leg, and her emotional disability, which is her self-consciousness about her missing limb. Aside from the utter implausibility of the plot, the picture is grossly overstuffed with television sitcom-esque snow bunny images of a european ski resort. Updated, it might make a great Farrelly brothers comedy. But as is, I would mark it "return to sender."
