Where to begin. First of all, the three stars chosen to star in an ice-skating movie couldn't ice skate. There was even a running joke about how Mary (Joan Crawford) couldn't skate. Second, the two long ice-skating bits that take up most of the final third of the movie (the second one in color), have nothing to do with the three or with the plot. In fact, the three stars are in the audience watching the second bit, with Mary's character sitting on a couch in the movie watching ... never mind. It was just stupid. After Crawford's character makes it in the movies, she's given a new hair style to make her look more glamorous. Instead, it makes her decidedly unattractive. Even at her best, I never thought she was very pretty. Not only that, but she's supposed to be Stewart's wife, but mostly she looks more likely to be his mother. Just a dud.
