On Edge Summary
MPAA Rating: R
Director: Karl Slovin
Genres: Comedy
The world of competitive figure skating takes a pratfall in this satiric comedy. Professor Robinson (Chris_Hogan) is a documentary filmmaker whose latest project presents an in-depth look at three figure skaters hoping to someday rise from the lowest rungs of amateur competition into the ranks of the U.S. Olympic Team. Robinson's subjects are Veda Tilman (Barret_Swatek), a high-strung young woman who suffers from an eating disorder; J.C. Cain (A.J. Langer), a chain-smoking trailer-park refugee with more than her share of attitude; and Wendy Wodinski (Marissa_Winokur), whose rotund build would make her seem like an unlikely contender for a skating championship. As Veda, J.C., and Wendy train for their next match, seen-it-all Zamboni driver Phil (Jason_Alexander) offers his perspective on the action. On Edge features cameos from noted comic actors Kathy_Griffin, Michael McKean, and Wendie_Malick, as well as appearances by real-life skating champions Scott_Hamilton, Kristi_Yamaguchi, Tai_Babilonia, Randy_Gardner, Steven Cousins, and Peter_Carruthers.
