John Kent (Randolph Scott), a former star football player at Harvard, goes to Paris with his friend Huck Haines (Fred Astaire) and the latter's dance band, the Wabash Indianians. Alexander Voyda (Luis Alberni) has booked the band, but refuses to let them play when he finds the musicians are not the Indians he expected, but merely from Indiana (Huck Haines and his Indianians Band).
John turns to the only person he knows in Paris for help, his Aunt Minnie (Helen Westley), who owns the fashionable "Roberta" gown shop. While there, he meets her chief assistant (and secretly the head designer), Stephanie (Irene Dunne). John is quickly smitten with her.
Meanwhile, Huck unexpectedly stumbles upon someone he knows very well. "Countess Scharwenka", a temperamental customer at Roberta's, turns out to be his hometown sweetheart Lizzie Gatz (Ginger Rogers). She gets Huck's band an engagement at the nightclub where she is a featured entertainer.
Two things trouble John. One is Ladislaw (Victor Varconi), the handsome Russian deposed prince and doorman who seems too interested in Stephanie. The other is the memory of Sophie (Claire Dodd), the snobbish, conceited girlfriend he left behind after a quarrel over his lack of sophistication and polish.
When Aunt Minnie dies unexpectedly without leaving a will, John inherits the shop. Knowing nothing about women's fashion and that his aunt intended for Stephanie to inherit the business, he persuades Stephanie to remain as his partner. Correspondents flock to hear what a football player has to say about feminine fashions. Huck gives the answers, making a lot of weird statements about the innovations John is planning to introduce.
Sophie arrives in Paris, attracted by John's good fortune. She enters the shop, looking for a dress, but is dissatisfied with everything Stephanie shows her. Huck persuades her to choose a gown that John had ordered discarded as too vulgar. When John sees her in it, they quarrel for the final time.
John reproaches Stephanie for selling Sophie the gown. Terribly hurt, Stephanie quits the shop. With Roberta's putting on a fashion show in a week, Huck takes over the design work, with predictably bad results. When Stephanie sees his awful creations, she is persuaded to return to save Roberta's reputation.
The show is a triumph, helped by the entertaining of Huck, Countess Scharwenka, and the band. (A pre-stardom Lucille Ball, with platinum blond hair, appears uncredited in her first RKO film[4] as a model wearing an elaborate feather cape, after the vocal by Dunne, in the fashion show.[5]) The closing sensation is a gown modeled by Stephanie herself. At the show, John overhears that she and Ladislaw are leaving Paris and mistakenly assumes that they have married. Later, he congratulates her for becoming a princess. When she informs him that Ladislaw is merely her cousin and that the title has been hers since birth, the lovers are reunited. Huck and Lizzie, who decide to get married, do a final tap dance sequel.
2022.3.1 元素太多，荒诞过头，里欧好帅！
总让我想起家里天猫精灵那个蠢货，点播歌曲都不如人意，人类总是以为高科技更省事更智能，但最后还是填补不了情感空白
三星半。故事有点像黑镜中的某一集，色彩饱和度高，表演夸张。
考虑到对导演的私心加上一分，某些桥段的设计还是好的，但对法式幽默不是很感冒，有些地方很搞有些地方很尬，整体又有些冗长人物刻画过于苍白，封闭房间的故事拍的有点无聊，镜头调度到还可以
如此在意你的我，怎会读不懂你的眼神和表情？
出乎意料地好看，差点被6.x评分错过的一部好片；今日剧中的科幻或许就是明天生活中的场景；细品还是有天使爱美丽那种魔幻感；
這一部作品是在描畫一個老奶奶不擅管理生活，而她生活的管家人工智慧機器則是把她關在室內的地方。應該是五個人輸給了五個人工智慧機器人。
室内赛博朋克配色，住久了估计精神会出问题，讽刺过度智能化，在一间屋子里面的1984。
背叛理性了多给一星，好喜欢热内，但是这个片子我真的没有 get 到(ಥ_ಥ)
拍出了追求正义过程中的复杂性，个人的小节，家人的反对。也正是这些复杂生活被敌人利用。一个人能不能对阵一部机器？《象棋的故事》是一种回答。本片又是一种回答。没有happening。然而本片的完成给出了不一样的回答。那些狂妄的机器人已被钉在耻辱柱上。
超现实？过理想？不知道最后哪个才是结局。感觉是个科幻喜剧哈哈哈，有些地方还挺好笑的，虽然有些地方也有点突然。女仆那一下真是感动到了，再出来的时候也是有点惊悚。文艺男有点窝囊，还是前夫莽一点，秘书人设也挺有意思的，不知是单纯还是傻还是神经。
懒惰、贪婪、无耻的人类，迟早要被机器驯化，或许不是危言耸听，对未来的设定充满复古和审美的科技感，细节考究、用心良苦，富有想象力，悲悯中带有浪漫，戏谑伴随着温情，科幻佳作值得反复品味
这是真难看啊，感觉简直是导演想通过搔自己的痒逗笑观众，真没想到名导也能拍这样的烂片。
很有意思的黑色幽默科幻片，机器人越来越进化后，就会觉得人类无用，只有低级的家政机器人，还渴望变成人。要实现阿西莫夫三原则太困难了啊。法国人拍的片子，总是少不了床戏。。那两少年少女，满16岁没？
怎么说呢，结构不太好，不像是一个整体，但女主的演技真的很好很好，那种后知后觉的模糊的情愫演得太好了，明明差一点，再差一点就能说出来了，但是就是差点什么重要的东西，导演需要再编织得欲一点，然后关于突然搬去找男友的那里再加点说服力。看到最后，我差点以为是在讲友情。对了，打动我的还有餐厅的老头，他说，放你喜欢的歌吧。
法国人的想象与幽默~
一步步擦拭强权罪行，冗长且压抑。同时也挺绝望，因为它还在，正在发生
看了这导演的两部作品都是在怀念死去的朋友。拍得很真诚，但是冗长得让人打瞌睡，总是在感慨的台词也让人感觉生硬。还有很大的进步空间啊！
啊两个女主都好爱。只是故事实在可惜了美女们，与演技无关。
“永远有一个吻未尝，有些烛光未燃亮。”
