Iceland (1942)
Director: H Bruce Humberstone
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
A sluggish comedy-romance with Payne as a marine stationed in Iceland and Henie working her tiresome pixie charm overtime as the local miss who determinedly snares him. Even the skating routines, loaded with fulsome tributes to the good old USA, are tough going.Author: TM
