    • Trivia
      Put into production by Warner Bros. solely on the strength of the success of the same studio's Giant (1956), also based on an Edna Ferber novel four years earlier, some critics dubbed it "Giant on the Rocks". The same year also produced a big-budget MGM remake of yet another Ferber novel, (Cimarron (1960)), but neither that film nor "Ice Palace" succeeded with critics or audiences.
