On this day in 1978, COLUMBIA PICTURES released ICE CASTLES. Directed by DONALD WRYE from a script by GARY L. BAIM, this popsicle of a schmaltz-fest was a real crowd pleaser. LYNN-HOLLY JOHNSON stars as a young girl whose dreams of becoming a world-class figure skater are dashed by a tragic accident. Enter ROBBY BENSON who manages to make everything better. The great supporting cast features COLLEEN DEWHURST, TOM SKERRITT and JENNIFER WARREN.
