Customer Review: Forget the skating and the plot, for me the best part of the film is the musical speciality number, 'War Dance of the Wooden Indians', which features rare footage of Raymond Scott & his Quintette. Of particular interest and note ... Read More
Customer Review: In the wake of the brilliant Sun Valley Serenade, Fox again cast Sonja with John Payne under the helm of H. Bruce Humberstone. Iceland is not as good as Sun Valley, but her skating is her best. The music is first rate, though the words hilarious(promoting ... Read More
Customer Review: Ice skater Sonia Henje was one of Fox's big, big stars back in the Great Depression... Her particular charms don't hold up well over the years, though, and modern audiences may simply find her too cuddly and bland to hang with in films like this. Apparently this ... Read More

Roy del Ruth is at the helm and naturally delivers plenty. The musicalnumbers are out of this world and the comedy of Joan Davis hilarious and not A BIT ... Read More
Customer Review: After One in a Million 1936, Sonja Henie was fast becoming a Hollywood star in the front rank.

Customer Review: This is an awful flick centering on Sonja Henie falling in love with a tough and gruff ice hockey player. Henie always wanted to be filmed in technicolor and this was her first color film. By 1945, when this was filmed, her movie career was on a sharp decline The plot of this film is typical ...
