Hilda: Why do they build them so high?

Featured review
Two reporters, one American (Robert Cummings) and one British (Ray Milland), track a presumed dead Nobel Prize winner Dr. Norden (Maurice Moscovitch) to a remote Swiss village. They both fall in love with Louise (Sonja Henie), who they don't realize is actually the doctor's daughter.
This was the first Sonja Henie film I've seen, and while it as an inconsequential piece of fluff, it was enjoyable. Henie has an engaging screen presence and Ray Milland is charming as always. Robert Cummings is really annoying though.
Henie only gets one skating number, an excellent number to the Blue Danube Waltz. The rather serious script, which somehow manages to involve the Gestapo, is rather bad at places, but it's all good fun.
