MICHELLE TRACHTENBERG: ICE PRINCESS REVIEW
Spotted in New York Times' Herbie review:
As in another Disney film released this year, "Ice Princess," the heroine is forced to choose between short-term sports stardom and a long-term career investment that makes use of her education. (In "Ice Princess" the choice is between the rink and college.) It's not much of surprise that in an era in which everyone is supposedly entitled to his or her 15 minutes of fame, stardom wins.
It helps that Ms. Lohan, unlike the pallid Michelle Trachtenberg in "Ice Princess," is a genuine star who combines a tomboyish spunk with a sexy, head-turning strut, executed with minimal self-consciousness. Likable but never saccharine, confident but not snooty, and endowed with the natural freckled-faced beauty of an 18-year-old Everywoman, Ms. Lohan seems completely at home on the screen.
Ice Princess available for pre-order on DVD
OST currently available
