Sun Valley Serenade (1941) ****

The best jazz musical of the early 40's. The ever-smiling Sonja Henie stars as a Norvegian refugee adopted by a jazz band from Sun Valley. A wonderfully entertaining film. Songs and jazz numbers:

"It Happened In Sun Valley" **
"I Know Why (And So Do You)" **
"In The Mood" ***
"It Happened In Sun Valley" (reprise) **
"Chattanooga-Choo-Choo" ***
"The Kiss Polka" *
"I Know Why (And So Do You)" *
