Steve D A lot of talent but I kept waiting for the skating, Then it started and I couldn't wait for it to end. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/20/23 Full Review Audience Member i think this would be better if it was a vehicle for sonja hennie at 20th fox it would have been better Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Ridiculous plot used as an excuse to make an ice skating movie. The ending is an ultra-vivid color ice musical sequence, and thirty-something, flame-haired Joan in color is literally breathtaking. Otherwise, this is a terrible movie. The 49th of 81 Joan films I've seen. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member Certainty not the best Joan Crawford or James Stewart film out their; the movie seemed to be lacking something. But the skating scenes are spectacular. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Tipis & Totem poles - um no. Black face - um no. Jimmy Stewart - um no. Skating - no thanks. Even the movie in the movie sucked. Joan didn't even save it! Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Good movie...kept me entertained and Jimmy Stewart was awesome as always! :) Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
