Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

To boost sales in the sports department, Sonja Henie, a parcel-wrapper at a Fifth Avenue store, agrees to become an advertising mannequin at snowy Plymouth University, never suspecting this will rile her fellow co-eds. Skating, sleigh rides, and romance in the sweetshop (with Richard Greene) ensue. Mournful racoon-skin support from Buddy Ebsen and a notable ice finale, 'Alice in Wonderland Through the Looking Glass'.
