Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Use American English Шаблон:Infobox film Iceland is a 1942 musical film released by 20th Century-Fox, directed by H. Bruce Humberstone and stars skater Sonja Henie and John Payne as a U.S. Marine posted in Iceland during World War II. The film was titled Katina in Great Britain and Marriage on Ice in Australia.[1]
Fox reteamed their two leads and director from the previous year's musical Sun Valley Serenade and set the story in the then contemporary American Marine landing and occupation of Iceland in 1941. Payne had previously played a Marine in Fox's To the Shores of Tripoli also directed by Humberstone. Among the songs are "There Will Never Be Another You" and "You Can't Say No to a Soldier".
Some Icelanders protested against the film for its depiction of Marines winning away the local women.[2][3] Henie's on-ice partner during the filmed skating sequences was 1940/41 U.S. Champion Eugene Turner.
