“Oh, so you’re the fella.” - Sun Valley Serenade review by LJ
The sort of ‘entertainment filler’ that came out during the war, this musical romance has very little convincing character or plot to string between the Glenn Miller music and snow sport scenes. It may have been a welcome distraction for audiences at the time but, aside from some talented dancers, it has little value to a modern audience.
