Sonja Henie, Adolphe Menjou

20th Century Fox, 1998

SONJA HENIE'S DEBUT
The finale of this pleasant little diversion from 1936 is Sonja Henie's (pronounced Sunya Henny) triumphant professional debut at Madison Square Garden where, in real life, she made her professional debut in March of that year. The movie gives the cute-as-a-button Norwegian Henie a chance to skate and have a screen boyfriend in the person of Don Ameche (in real life, during this time, she was ...

Cesar Romero - gotta love him!
I must admit, I'm not that much of a Sonja Henie fan but I always like the MEN in her movies. She's no kind of actress but she is often surrounded by a fine supporting cast which make her films worthwhile. In this case, it's Cesar Romero as a night club performer who, along with the rest of the cast, is trying to save an old hotel from the wrecking ball. He is absolutely hilarious (even by ...

DELIGHTFUL SPOOF OF GONE WITH THE WIND
This is fun indeed. Sonja is surrounded by toptalent such as Irving Berlin(but not his best score), Tyrone Power, Rudy Vallee and Edna May Oliver. Unfortunately she is not given much to do outside her numbers, but it is apparent that she was on her way to become warm in front of the cameras as an actress. Edna May Oliver stands out as a warm and cynic aunt Phoebe. Sonja`s solo on ice is terrific; ...

GREAT 4 STAR MUSICAL COMEDY
Sonja Henie leads an all-star-cast in "HAPPY LANDING"(1938). Co-stars include Don Ameche, Ethel Merman, Cesar Romero and Billy Gilbert. This musical has it all, everything from a faraway village in Norway, to Gay Paris and finally exciting nightlife in New York. The musical numbers are outstanding.

1 OF HER VERY BEST
This is a real holiday confection, with an all-star cast - Sonja Henie, Richard Greene, Cesar Romero, Joan Davis and Buddy Ebsen. 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 DATED. The jet-set aura is perfect and it`s Hollywood at its most Hollywood. No wonder Sonja was Fox`s box-office ...

MGM (Video & DVD), 1998

Sonja`s only Hollywood-film in color
This is a novelty: A musical film from 1945 that contains alcoholism, poverty and adultery. Of course it`s Sonja`s show and she carries it of beautifully, though her dramatic depth as an actress might be questioned hehehe. The photography by the great Ray Rennahan is spectacular, as are the scenic design and costumes. Marie "The Body"(as she was called) McDonald is a breathtaking witch. ...

Sonja Henie, Ray Milland

20th Century Fox, 1994

Worth watching soley for the sheer charm of Ray Milland.
This film is a mixed bag, full of humour, romance, and suspense. It works most of the time, however the scenes where the graceful Sonja skates tends to slow down the film. The piece on it's own is a wonderful display of ice dancing. Anyway, the best scenes involve Ray Milland. They don't make Ray's anymore! He really lights up any bit he's in. Standard story of two men after the same girl and ...

SONJA EMERGES AS HOLLYWOOD STAR
After One in a Million 1936, Sonja Henie was fast becoming a Hollywood star in the front rank. In THIN ICE she is teamed with her then-boyfriend Tyrone Power and the chemistry is explosive... It`s a Cinderella-story, but given the full treatment by 20th Century-Fox - it`s almost like an MGM extravaganza :-) The skating is good and Joan Davis as a comedy relief is a winner. As a matter of fact I ...

'Sonja at the last', skating in this film better than ever, weak script, skating star ''sonja'' puts on a show for the disadvantaged in London. Black Ice Ballet is beautiful, But poorly lighted. Sonja's presentation on stage, never has it been matched.She gave the ice her all,and made so many happy. ''one in a million'' Sonja was. JoelC.Parks
