Forget the skating; this is Sonja Henie at her sensual best!, 4 April 2003
10/10
Author: John (opsbooks) from Blue Mountains, Australia

John Payne, one of those often underated actors who turn up with regularity in the 1940s, makes a good partner for the sensuous Sonja Henie in this entertaining big band romp in the snow. I've lost count of the number of times I've watched this movie but still delight in the sight and sound of the race down the mountain and of course the brilliant Nicholas Brothers. A good supporting cast and faultless production values makes this movie one to remember.
