Rating: - Happy Landing
Forget the skating and the plot, for me the best part of the film is the musical speciality number, 'War Dance of the Wooden Indians', which features rare footage of Raymond Scott & his Quintette. Of particular interest and note is Scott's highly talented drummer, Johnny Williams, the late father of John Williams, the movie theme composer ( 'Star Wars', etc.). Pure magic.
Rating: - 4-star-musical
This is Sonja Henie`s most extravagant musical; she`s backed by Ethel Merman, Don Ameche and Cesar Romero. Merman steals the scenes she`s in as does "The Wooden Indians!"... The film is nothing more than a series of musical numbers and little mix-ups between the protagonists.... But IT IS done in great style and if u wanna have a musical from the 30s - do SETTLE for this... However... if u want a story in addition to musical numbers - skip it - and settle for Sonja`s other films:-)
Rating: - 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.
