Falling For Christmas - Full Movie

[Applause] on the ice now is Claire Benson who hopes her last three years with Julian king who has a fiamma's record for coaching champions since her that gold medal today [Music] [Applause] well it seems Claire has gotten the crowd into a festive spirit and why not the energy and emotion she has brought to the ice is incredible she can land her triple axel she may take that gold [Music] she's setting it up [Music] No a devastating technical error for Claire Benson looks like it'll be silver for Claire Benson tonight [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Music] hey there you are okay ah which one do you think for the front door oh yeah I thought so too okay about a Christmas tree um wanna go this weekend I have to train this weekend uh so I guess that means you forgot this Stuart Christmas brunch no Nationals are just a few weeks away for Christmas a baby you'd never stop I am fine and Julian's just trying to get me to where I want to go my dad hired him yeah well your dad pushed too hard too maybe if he hadn't he'd still be here look if you want we can go and get a trade this weekend absolutely that's not the point Claire what is the last time you went out with a friend I'm just saying there there may come a day when you regret that having lived more life outside the arena look the only thing I will regret is never making it to worlds eunuch chard oh Claire tow tow bring those arms in come on [Music] compress Twitter come on go focus okay arms it tight now Claire get up go over here you gotta keep that energy into it okay you're slowing it down all right you got to keep the energy going what is wrong with you you're distracted her I'm frustrated cuz they're not nailing the job hey what do I always say do a good frustrated get focused right I know but I can't have a repeat performance at Nationals in four weeks Claire we made a promise to one another after last Nationals what was it they promised that I wouldn't give up mm-hmm and I promised I'd get you two worlds now let's go again all right [Music] get up let's go again come on it's colder sitting down than it is skating I don't think I can well the good news is there's no sign of any fractures or Springs the bad news is your Achilles is in pretty rough shape what are we talking about here a sprain or a tear most likely a tear which isn't surprising I mean Claire you and I both know that you've been dealing with tendonitis for quite some time now and we've been supporting those injuries with cortisone what's the recovery time for six weeks apparently feel it when I walk how bad can it be come on Claire you know just because you don't feel it doesn't mean you should stress it which is why rest and and a lot um thank you very much doctor would you mind if we just had a few moments here yeah thank you I'm gonna have your medical records sent to Westridge rehab okay you can fly out the morning that's all the way open the mountains I don't need to go up there I loved your commitment Claire but we need you in top form for nationals and West Ridge has the best accelerated program in the country okay trust me we'll have you back in a few weeks for getting your skaters for the world championships it's clear any different absolutely not in fact I'll promise you not only will Claire make it to Worlds she'll get gold and Nationals well that certainly puts a lot of pressure on you Claire don't worry my girl will do it we should be at the West Ridge clinic in about 20 minutes enjoy the scenery okay thanks these are the terrible hand tight [Music] the roads aren't clear we could be stuck stuck got any chains excuse me nope no chains did you let's get back on the road please nothing I can do now without chains you'll have to wait for a tow I can barely get a signal on my phone up here coming in when I get back to town okay great long will that take it could be 45 minutes an hour and that's assuming he's not on another job there's one tow truck yeah yeah Joe is your man how far as it's the West Road rehab clinic it's 20 minutes by foot but I wouldn't recommend it not those Peter Pan boots I can give you a lift I'll be fine thank you careful of the wolves [Music] you sure you don't want to lift ok sure Ben didn't all these bags that would be great yeah right [Music] you uh you need a hand with your luggage same thing second manager I'll put that call in to Joey great thank you um Luke look and you are clear Claire well Claire welcome to West Ridge [Music] [Music] welcome to Westbridge we have a room already for you so you can warm up I mean we can you see a doctor well let's see your first physio pointman is at 10 a.m. tomorrow morning oh um keep it's someone new oh no it's after 4:00 time for a rest and recovery [Music] hot cider why not thanks [Music] y'all sailed in yeah I guess yeah well uh Joey made sure that your ride made it back down the mountain in one piece right you think's for helping me out with that that's what we do around here and we help each other out well how come I end up doing all the heavy lifting Claire's my good friend Lulu that's cute Peter Pan boots I just wasn't prepared for all this no I don't worry about it most city folk art we should get going we got a lot more wood to deliver well thanks rather hey gentlemen for tell you what use up as much as you like and don't burn it all in one place keep one thang [Music] how's it run those same things except those exclusions what was that oh those are just the charges they said I have to prevent an avalanche I believe don't worry we haven't had one not recently anyhow your tendons are suffering with micro tears and not just in the Achilles but in the posterior and anterior tibialis last have you treated with cortisone in the past I have to compete well unfortunately the muscles have been weakened and that's why you're getting these injuries well I feel strong do you I have to be in top form for nationals well we'll start with a combined program of IMS shock wave therapy the traditional physio and my favorite rest but if you find it I can still skate right you can but absolutely no jumps for what a week for for four weeks well that's impossible the Nationals are in four weeks I know just a junior skater I'm assessing and a walk isn't she my competition I'm not back on the ice so I'm gonna talk to your doctor or like Claire remember your strong [Music] you've been down on the lake checking out the ice lately yeah she's clearing off the snow this morning still too thin in spots for any fishing but that cold snap forget and should have it set in a couple days don't you worry excuse me Luke oh hey Claire hey do you know um what do you think pretty festive right yeah but I'm really nice do you know where I could get a prey skates sharpened yes at the tax Shack just across the square there perfect thank you welcome what cut it out well I guess Joey runs this place too Oh see you you're everywhere I was hoping it was whoever runs this place and we how did they expect us to wait for 20 minutes oh well sometimes you got to put things on hold to give a hand tis the season after all it's your job how can I help you I am didn't realize that's all right I can get it he's city folk don't like the wait now have those skits could use a sharpening but they don't you know the correct collar radius I'm guessing you'd prefer a three-eighths radius rather than a thicker one am i right yeah that's right okay I'll make sure they're nice and level so how did you injure yourself I fell while training beggar skater huh lucky guess and what are you like the town handyman why don't you say that well so far you deliver wood what of decorations and sharpen teeth all right I get it not to be honest I didn't have much time for anything before so now maybe I'm making up for that so I guess you'd be the guy to ask if there's a skating rink nearby you're looking for an indoor rink does that closed down a couple years ago there's an outdoor one though it's nothing fancy but it's ice and everyone skates on it but with the shadow I'll know where to drop me off yeah sure it's right by the clinic but it's closed today Oh why all the Patterson's booked it for their son's birthday party the whole rink is closed for a kid's birthday yeah that's right that should do it you got him a few Wow think you got these sharper than back home what would

fine long as his ego heals how about you baby I've always been able to heal so quickly from a fall or a strain you know but it's the time it's like no matter how hard I try no matter how hard I push I just can't get there well what happened if you didn't compete maybe I'm not trying to upset you I promise it's just well at some point you're gonna have to walk away why not before you're you hurt yourself badly no but I just what I don't know what I would do if I couldn't skate do you remember what you wanted to be when you were four years old a veterinarian and a fashion designer well and a firefighter and a mom sweetie there's still plenty for you to do you have so much ahead of you no matter what hey how are you feeling good as new right ah Julian back I hear we have a new patient I'm good that's so fast not so fast I gotta train him in the middle of training oh right now you need to relax and let me take care of you okay Julian I'm gonna have to drink without you but feel whatever no it's okay I got this whoa that's like a what just leg of this thing over time you're gonna be just fine you're in great hands you can sit up a little bit over the show you sure you want these skates over your hockey skates yes I'm sure yes oh hey Claire look mr. nice they left the pink laces I got some from Santa last year but I never really use them daddy first hockey over figure skating oh really well maybe we should get you to add some pink laces too much okay okay it's time to hit the ice [Music] [Music] okay here we go I sure did you're a natural your dad's right you are a natural they think we should call it a day no but trust me nothing good comes from pushing too hard well right and I promise we'll come back again let's go daddy Claire says we can do it again sometime so when I yeah I'm sure we'll figure that out now why don't you get your boots back on so you're not late for your sleepover at my house okay thanks Claire oh you are very welcome you're an excellent pupil we are great coach thank you sure you probably took time out here on training to do this well Julie instead of Commission so all right how is Julia fine so see just your coach yeah he's just my gosh right yeah I'm just asking because it seems like he's very protective of me of course well look if if you don't plan on training today I'm gonna be hitting the ice doing some fishing if you want to come didn't you warned me to stay off the ice don't worry it's solid now you could just drop by the shop in about an hour and I could set you up with a rod well why not my ankle could use the rest and I'm sure Julian's in good hands [Music] Oh Julian you're up I am and feeling like an olympian again that woman is very strong how was training oh um it was good really great excellent well let's have a light snack and then get back at her oh um you know I think I might have overdone it just a wee bit so I thought taking the rest of the day off would be best just so I don't set myself back okay just a gym session then yeah actually I was thinking about experiencing some of the local culture like ice fishing really and who would you be experiencing this with Luke uh but just because he knows what he's doing mm-hmm local culture huh actually sounds like a really good idea it does yeah it does excuse me sunshine get us a shovel would you I don't know her name okay who's gonna join us fishing oh well I'm glad to see we didn't put you out of commission I'll just uh I'll get the snowmobiles ready you do know how to drive one right yeah great I will clearly need to get you suited up in something different I got a few things for you too and I'll grab you a helmet I'll be right back something different [Music] I hello boys just this time the fish are just starting to bite well maybe for you but I haven't had a nibble all day oh stop your belly ache you know man I'm just worried because the wave told you if you don't come home with fish don't come home with anything at all looks like you got the girlfriend with you oh all right stalled must be holed let's do some fishing oh here let me uh let me get some bait on there for you okay Julian uh actually no I'll just I'll stick with the lure there now now boys when I first got up this mountain I didn't know much about ice fishing either you got that right we let it slide what with him being so great on the ice and other ways yeah young how so young man you are sitting with ice royalty okay come on guys who was one of the best hockey players in his day it wasn't for that dang injury he'd still be one of the best so he quit no I didn't quit I chose not to put my body through any more abuse all right well sometimes as athletes we need to push ourselves in order to achieve greatness I myself won four gold medals even while my body was tired because unlike you I never gave up you definitely got one there all right just check the line a little bit okay there you go and quick tuck it's a nice one is it George hit wishes he could get one half that big you know what George you can bring this one home to your wife Oh Oh got one - I got one - I got this okay all right oh it's big when I can feel it you know you're talking too hard yeah oh yeah here it comes here it comes Oh [Music] Dallas now see ya how's the fishing going make sure I get that hankie back I'll take the machine back you got it it'll be okay Julian they'll take good care of you at the clinic I don't worry sweetie he'll be fine you just enjoy yourself Lou and I'll make sure he gets set to lure pulled out his bag and when you get to the clinic up in page dr. Schmidt dr. Schmidt I'm sorry for what Julian said earlier sometimes you just can't see past the wind that's okay maybe the chance to check it any the scenery yeah I'm kidding really well c'mon then [Music] [Music] it's so beautiful I just wait for it you know first time I saw the sunset over these mountains I thought maybe there is more for me than just hockey I mean I love the game but I lost a lot when I quit Schama knees mom she she walked out on us when shaman Eva's for I couldn't do it anymore peace in my body back together and pumping it with cortisone long enough so I could keep winning I knew eventually the pieces fall apart when I already starting to and I know you said not to be scared but I am so what's your story huh why'd you start skating my dad he worked a lot but the one thing he always made time for was skating hmm he'd take me to the local ranking movies just skate for hours until I chose her no I loved it made me feel like I was flying is my dad's idea to get me in the figure skating and I won my first trophy and that was it I was a doll I've known for 20 years 23 years that's how long I played hockey and like you I couldn't imagine anything else but when I let it go that's when I realized everything I'd be missing out on having more days to spend with Xiamen II watching the sunset shoveling my neighbor's driveway or just spending time with someone makes me smile Oh what are the chances that get a signal up here yeah what are the chances it's probably Julian they should come okay it was a really nice day well I'm pretty sure he made my daughter's day maybe I can cut company again tomorrow she would love that okay I'll meet you guys at the rink um after done yeah we'll be there okay we're gonna go inside okay good night Hey how's he doing happily sleeping thanks to some pain medication how are you doing taking it easy I hope actually I have been resting a bit good I'll see you tomorrow physio [Music] [Music] [Laughter] well thank you for for a wonderful evening thank you until we meet again good night good night all right one more time [Music] [Music] good wait I almost forgot I'm read you something nice moves out there there you go you can hang on your Christmas tree and make a wish unless you're here for Christmas maybe you can join in on our Christmas tree oh well I don't know it should be grab hot chocolates daddy I have an idea you should come skating with us oh I think that's a great idea oh no no no no I didn't bring my skates sweetie they always have spare ones by the rink how can I say no to that [Music] [Music] [Music] her police's it's all they had [Music] I guess I should give up on my dream of becoming a hockey player huh she'd probably prefer pink skating costumes over goalie paddy how about you do you ever play hockey anymore oh really why not you said you loved it I guess after a while I just stopped thinking about playing because I was afraid if I picked a stick back up again I'd regret walking away well I know that when it's my time to walk away I'll always skate because when you love something that much you shouldn't let it go [Music] all right [Music] what you get [Music] [Music] [Music] Robley perhaps just a little unsteady in the last half rotation but other than that not bad Claire I see you've been using your practice time wisely I mean it's not like you've got a competition to be ready for in two weeks I didn't see any harm in it's my fault she was actually just doing me in Xiamen II a favor but she does have a real knack for coaching oh well when she goes on to win a championship like me then she can coach to her heart's content but until then she's all mine and as you're all warmed up I guess we should get started huh before the ice melts actually Julian I'm just gonna let my body rest besides I have that physio appointment in less than an hour anyway show money you'll see you later okay oh he was was he well I think daddy might have been showing off for a girl daddy Claire blue did did that ski wax we were coming she's real pretty daddy and she skates you like ski right daddy [Music] you know what Kevin II I think our good friend Lou here might have a little bit of a crush on Claire's mom uncle is that true yeah it's it I'm gonna go look for the ski wax are you gonna marry her no how old is she Cara she's gonna come live here [Music] ah tendons aren't as tight see that's what resting just for a couple of days will do good good we can finally get back to working on your triple axel oh I didn't say she was healed that will still take time we don't have time the body's on its own schedule not yours hmm unless we help it along a little bit I wouldn't recommend that it's fine it's okay Claire is used cortisone before let's just do it actually no I don't want it not anymore [Music] clear Claire what's going on what's wrong with you there's nothing wrong with me Julian really cuz you're not acting like the athlete I signed on with and I only agreed to coach you because you have the same Drive as me I won't let you ruin my record cutter well I'm sorry about your record but this is about me whoa hey whoa you this is about you I want this I do but I can't keep pushing if my body can't do it that's nonsense the ability to be able to do it is all up here no Julian it's here and my heart is telling me something different Claire you promised me you wouldn't give up oh Claire I was just coming to see if you could join me for dinner later I found this adorable little Creperie when Lou took me on a tour thanks mom I'm not that hungry I'll see you later okay sorry I was just closing up Julian can I help you with something I hope you can you see it appears Claire isn't quite as focused as she was before she got here and I'm guessing it has something to do with a retired hockey player I'm not telling her what to do that's what you're thinking clearly that's your job exactly it's my job to make sure she achieves what she's always wanted and being a world champion is what she's always wanted I mean maybe you gave up on the dream but believe me Claire will regret it she will regret it if she doesn't go for it I should know I've been training her for the last three years I've been there when she struggled when she's been so close she could almost taste it and when she soared because she got it and I just don't think that you can say the same in the few weeks you've known her and I'm sure you don't want to be the one who crushes her dreams because if you do she will never forgive you [Music] [Music] I know you do but sweetie your nose is turning [Music] [Music] hey hey can I bend your ear a bit maybe what about it's Julian yeah he wanted me to get a cortisone shot you know to help me along with this competition but I told him I didn't want it because I mean it's like you said there only so many times I can keep putting the pieces back together again so uh I have a feeling that after this competition that'll be it which means that I can go ahead and I don't know see what else was out there for me you sure about that I mean maybe it's maybe something right time to quit what makes you say that I know how this place can make you feel lost in the moment I think it's important you stay focused on your dreams daddy I got a gingerbread kid maybe you can help me do it you know I don't think so honey Claire's got a very important competition to prepare for and we shouldn't bother come on let's get you home it's probably just a school night wait yeah sweetie a couple more days of school and then

haven't charged Phil for anything since the day we've opened so what's muddling that brain of yours was it Peter Pan boots again no no I am beside this long she's ever gonna come back here or anything well not unless you ask her to why would I do that Lou I mean she's got a career and it's just like her coach said just because I quit doesn't mean I should be convincing her to the same thing what does that scarf wearing troll know anyway he knows Claire a lot more than I do he may have known her longer but you know exactly what she's going through come on when you first came to this mountain you were a wreck I mean heck even today you won't pick up a stick or place Ginny or nothing so she's gonna get to the other side of this she's gonna need someone like you who's been through it before
