Curiosità
It's a Pleasure! is a 1945 American Technicolor Comedy-drama musical film directed by William A. Seiter and starring Sonja Henie, Michael O'Shea and Marie McDonald.
Production
Sonja Henie had made nine pictures for 20th Century Fox ending with Wintertime. In December 1943 she signed a contract to make a movie for the newly formed International Pictures which was run by William Goetz who had been head of production at Fox briefly while Henie worked there.
According to producer David Lewis, Goetz had no story for Henie and asked Lewis if he had anything. Lewis lunched with Charles Brackett when Billy Wilder came in and Lewis asked Wilder if he had any ideas. Lewis wrote Wilder "came up with the title Of Ice And Woman and proceeded to sit down and dictate a few pages, a total takeoff on the play Burlesque. Although it was all done as sort of a lark, the idea had merit, and I took it to Goetz.
Geotz asked Lewis to produce the film but David Loper was associate producer. Lewis said "with
Goetz’s backing, Loper tried to take over. He had no story judgment and was only interested, as was [Mitchell] Leisen, in decor. The film could have no pretensions with Henie and Michael
O'Shea (a talented actor but out of place), but I hoped to get a coherent background for Henie’s skating skills, most of which had been expertly exploited in her Twentieth Century- Fox films. Since she had to dominate the film, and, as our only skater, was limited in her choreography, all we had to offer was a Technicolor view of her."
