LOON MT.: A nice family area, with a variety of skiing. Although Loon is known primarily as an intermediate area, it has a few challenging trails. In short, Loon is a great mountain for the easy-going recreational skier. The four-man gondola also makes it easy to ski with friends. It offers a weekday discount or students with I.D. 132 miles from Boston...

...rehabilitation melodrama is here: doubtful doctors and blind determination; parents trying to be brave, a fiancé who has pledged true love wilting away from the full force of the tragedy, other patients being both cynical and supportive as Jill masters her wheelchair. Her struggle is abetted by another skier, a cordial eccentric called "Mad Dog" Dick Buek (Beau Bridges) who wants to marry her. She greets his initial proposal with one of those speeches about pity that seem to be required by films like this the way a western needs a Shootout. In the end, she changes her mind...
