Asking DB: Did you enjoy filming the Cutting Edge?
DB Sweeney: The Cutting Edge was a very difficult film to produce cause when you watch figure skating on TV the camera is interested in the whole body and doesn't get into a tight close up. When you're in a movie, you need to know what's going on inside that person and when you're going to spend 90 minutes with a character, you need to get inside their eyes. So, the technical challenge of getting the camera close enough during the skating was daunting. But, it paid off.

Asking DB: Did Moira do her own skating?
DB Sweeney: Moira broke her leg ... in the scene in the bar, she has her leg in a cast and she's being steered around in a camera dolly and she out dances me! So, I was out danced by a girl with a broken leg! She was very disappointed ...But Sharon Carz ... was Moira's double and she looks so much like her so they were able to use her for a great deal of the film.
