About This Movie

Ice Capades Revue is a fascinating 1942 blend of comedy and music, directed by Bernard Vorhaus, that captures the spirit of the era quite well. The film's atmosphere is lively, with a unique charm that comes from the ice show setting. You get a delightful mix of ice skating performances and a romantic storyline featuring Ann Porter, who's a determined promoter. The pacing is a bit uneven at times, but that adds to its quirky feel. The rivalry with Duke Baldwin adds some tension, and Jeff Stewart's suave presence brings a touch of Broadway flair. It's interesting to see how they incorporate practical effects for the ice sequences, which gives it an authentic feel. Overall, it's a nice slice of early 40s entertainment with some catchy musical numbers.
