冰雪公主（三十四） 作文

Forget it.
I just need to hear her voice.
You've reached the Carlyles.
We're not here right now...
It's not about her.This is about you.
Our final skater is Casey
Carlyle from Millbrook,Connecticut.
One more thing.
What?
Skate with your heart.
And here's her opening jump,a triple Salchow.
It's good for the nerves.
Thanks.
Triple loop.
Perfect landing.
What?She just threw in that triple Lutz!
Threw in's right,complete improvisation.
- She deviated.- And I'll bust her for it.
Tomorrow.
Who said you could let go?
I haven't seen anyone come back this far from a disaster since Midori Ito
in the '92 Olympics.
That has to be the rally of the year.
Casey Carlyle waits for marks.
Nikki and Zoey first and second in the ordinals,DeGroat third.
Will that fall cost her,or will that rally,
not to mention the added technical difficulty push her past the others?
High!5.1 s and 5.2s.
They're almost dead even with Nikki Fletcher's.
That's my daughter.That's my daughter.
Here's her artistic set of marks.
Hold on.Hold on.
Those are almost even with Nikki's.
Did she do it?
No,it's not enough.She'll have to settle for silver.
This takes her to nationals and who knows,maybe the 2006 Olympics.
With this skater,anything is possible.
Thank you.
Case?
Mom?
If I'd known.If I'd just taken ten minutes
and gone to the rink with you,
I never would have...
Mom.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
How could I not see?
You see me better than anybody.
Come on.
Casey.
Congratulations.
And you can drive the Zamboni any time you want.
I was this close,this close to losing!
- Where did those triples come from?!- Sweetheart,you...
Don't you know what'll happen after six months with Tina?
- What?- She's gonna whip my butt!
- Someone is gonna pay big time.- Nikki.Can we have a word?
- Hello,Peter.- Just wanted to say congrats.
We look forward to seeing The Jumping Shrimp at the Nationals.
That is so sweet.I just went out there and skated my best.
And today,I guess my best was good enough.
Love you.
You know I can't afford this.We'll need to find a sponsor.
I'm on it.Burger Blast is interested.
Burger Blast?Oh no,I am sorry.I'm sorry,no.
Why not?
If she can't eat it,she can't endorse it.
We'll need something healthier.How about Grape-Nuts?
Grape-Nuts?What about cod liver oil?
- Guys.- You know,I am her mother.
What I say goes.She is my daughter.
- She is my skater.- Well,daughter trumps skater.
Well,ask any professional athlete,coach trumps mother every time.
Guys!
And that boy,we'll need to nip that in the bud.
I can't go through all this and a boy too.
That is a huge distraction.It's unacceptable.
- I don't believe this!- You will be busy training.
And four college courses.
Four?Are you out of your mind,with everything she's doing?
All right,two.
- But then four in the fall.- Only if she wins sectionals.
Oh,she will.

Casey Carlyle (Michelle Trachtenberg) anchors the production about a young, gifted woman of seventeen who is both athletic and intellectual. She has a conflict. Her mother, Mrs. Caryle (Joan Cusack), teaches in a local Connecticut college and is quite aware that her daughter is a physics geek with straight A's in a subject in which everyone I know was lucky to get C's. She has a chance to use her brain to get a full scholarship to Harvard, but her mother's dream is not Casey's. The personable, otherwise malleable Casey, is as excellent a figure skater as she is a budding physicist and wants to postpone her physics ambitions to train for the Olympics to be held in 2006. This conflict provides most of the tension in this G-rated movie, which has a targeted audience of girls between the ages of, say, ten to eighteen.
Despite the presumed audience for "Ice Princess," Fywell's feature, however formulaic, can find a paying crowd of people of any age and both genders, largely because the acting is so good and even more, because the characters are painted in shades of gray rather than black or white. No one in the story is all bad, and though there are no villains, each character is flawed.
Casey's problem is that she expends too much effort dealing with her conflict. Though she's about to graduate from high school, she's still a mama's girl, always on the verge of giving up her dream simply because her mother insists that there's but an eight-year shelf life for figure skaters. Mrs. Carlyle's weakness is that while she recognizes and applauds her daughter's accomplishments in science, she is so deaf to Casey's own wishes that she does not attend the young woman's training sessions and seems intent on ignoring Casey's performance in an all-important competition. Tina Harwood (Kim Cattrall), who is Casey's coach and a good one at that who insists that her students fall in line at the rink at 5:30 each morning, is at an opposite pole from Mrs. Carlyle. She pushes her own daughter, Gen (Hayden Panettiere), to practice compulsively on the rink, deaf to hints that the girl wants to be just a regular teen eager to chuck skating altogether. For her part Gen is at first hostile to Casey as both are training for the same sport but over the course of the story learns to appreciate her rival's talents and to become her best friend.
Most of us in the audience are presumably out of touch with the competitive world of ice skating, thinking that the ice is meant only for the use of sportsmen especially from Canada who enjoy pushing a puck along the field and getting into fights with their rivals. We not only become attuned to this world but see quite a few examples of the sport in action, as competitive skaters like Korean-American Tiffany (Jocelyn Lai), whose father (Paul Sun- Hyung Lee) works two jobs to further his girl's ambitions, do triples, deep bends, whirls and whatever else impresses the bench full of judges who score every second of each skater as though the sport were a matter of life and death.
