Enjoyed this great Classic Film starring Sonja Henie, (Nora) who was a very famous Norwegian Ice-Skating Champion and gave an outstanding performance in this film with dancing and very exciting tricks on the ice which was her world. Jack Oakie,(Skip Hutton) gave a great supporting role and put plenty of humor to this film. Carole Landis, (Flossie Fouchere), "I Wake Up Screaming" was very attractive and had the hots for Cesar Romero, (Brad Barton) who in real life had a very torrid affair with Cesar before she met Rex Harrison. S. Z. Sakall, ( Hjalmar Ostgaard) was a veteran actor who was a great character actor who entertained many people in the 1930's and 1940's. Cornel Wilde, (Freddy Austin) was in love with Nora and they had problems but love is very strong and controls all relationships. Enjoyed the great music of Woody Herman, a great clarinet player and his orchestra which performed great sing and dance numbers. Please, don't miss viewing this film, it is wonderful.
