Fantastic Classic 1943 Film
Wintertime 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.
Fun Movie With A Great Cast
This is such a fun little movie – I’m thrilled Fox is finally putting it on DVD! Sonja Henie is the star so of course there’s plenty of amazing ice-skating numbers but the real treat here is the supporting cast. Cesar Romero and Carole Landis are hilarious as a bickering couple and their musical duet of “I Like It Here” is one of the highlights. I’m a huge Carole Landis fan and it’s always a treat to see her doing comedy and she has great chemistry with Cesar Romero. The costumes are beautiful too especially the gowns Carole wears and the Sonja’s skating costumes. Cornel Wilde and Jack Oakie also give great supporting performances. Although it was made as a b-movie Wintertime is a really good romantic comedy with some fun musical numbers and a wonderful cast!
