Customer Reviews of Biography - Sonja Henie
Sonja Henie -- Chutzpuh & Ice When I was a kid my mom had one great pair of roller skates that she kept in a shiny metal box in the closet. Her idol had been Sonja Henie. I grew up hearing the name but didn't know much about her. This video makes clear her skating ability, business acumen and unique charisma.
Although Henie's technical skating accomplishments have been surpassed, no one has yet been able to match her competetive record: 3 Olympic and 10 world championships. She was responsible for many innovations that have led to modern figure skating: shorter skating dresses which allowed greater freedom and athleticism by women skaters, the technology used for indoor ice which is still currently used, and the very notion of figure skating as spectacle with her hugely successful traveling ice shows and film career.
This video is also the tale of an independent woman who was determined to do things her own way. Sonja had chutzpuh that allowed her to make outrageous demands and the talent to be met on her terms. Her life is an amazing story of ambition, success and search for happiness. Told through film clips, stills and interviews with friends, this video presents a well-rounded look at the woman who inspired America to skate.
