Academy Award and Golden Globe-winners Joan Crawford ("What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?," "Mildred Pierce") and Jimmy Stewart ("It's Wonderful Life," "Vertigo," "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington") star. Larry (Stewart) and Mary (Crawford) are a husband and wife whose marriage is on thin ice when she gets a Hollywood film contract and he must work in the East. While Larry is having a tough time finding skating engagements, Mary is rising fast as a major film star. To be with her spouse, Mary offers to give up her career. A kind-hearted producer does his part to keep the pair together and finds Larry a job as a film producer. The film comes to life with a 17-minute Technicolor finale of a Cinderella fantasy performed by the International Ice Follies. - Baker & Taylor
