1975 TV movie telling the story of Jill Kinmont, the American Olympic ski contender and how she bravely coped with her accident which left her paralysed. Olivia sings the theme song Richard's Window.

Jill Kinmont wrote the liner notes to the album which say: "the concluding segment of the score is particularly satisfying, Olivia Newton-John's clear, mellow voice singing the poetic lyrics of Norman Gimbel perfectly underscores the importance of the love story and my relationship to Dick Buek. Her singing Richard's Window while 20 Paiute Indian children accompany my electric wheelchair down a   country lane in Bishop sums up the full impact of the film and its importance to me."

The movie is available on DVD and VHS video Olivia performs Richard's Window over the end credits but does NOT appear in the movie.
