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. Some Icelanders protested against the film for its depiction of Marines winning away the local women.
When Capt. James Murfin flirts with Katina, her Icelandic family take his actions as a proposal of marriage to her. Desperately wanting out, he gets his buddy to help him. (Wikipedia/Imdb)

There will be many other nights like this and I'll be standing here with somebody new, there will be other songs to sing, another fall, another spring but there will never be another you. Pure gold

I am a singer and sing that song often.
My mothers cousin was Sonja Henie, my sister looked quite a bit like her. Love watching her movies on winter days. I only have a few of her things but treasure them.⛸️⛸️

That's lovely!
Great stars, wonderful music, and Sonja's magnificent skating... What's not to like?!😊
Excellent movie, I never new it but the Marines actually did serve in Iceland during WWII, the movie even got their shoulder patches right.
Lovely, thank you for uploading this :-) PS/ I can confirm that the portrayal of the Icelandic people was spot on.
I adore John Paune THANK YOU very much.

Payne. Me too.
Absolutely delightful!❤😊
The Justice of the peace is the same actor who played Mr. Zumdish in Lost In Space, don't recall his name. Sterling Holloway the unlucky suitor also was the voice of Winnie the Pooh, can't blame Katina for not wanting to live the rest of her life with him.
Singer, Joan Merrill, at the beginning has a similar sound to Judy Garland.
Sweet and romantic.
A great song

At 1:13:46 was the beginning of the song by Elton John - Pinball wizard. Think about it ! 🌬💀🏴☠️
SONJA IS THE GREAT WOMEN SKATER EVER
🧞💯💓💯🧞
I don’t like watching this woman skate or dance. Her form, and grace is nonexistent. However, her smile gets me every time.
We were stationed in Iceland on Keflavik NAS from Dec 80 to Dec 82 and never heard of this movie so I doubt it fairs well with the Icelanders.
She is tainted.
Don’t like the singing.
