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.
从恐怖片变《飓风营救》了？老头也太能打了吧，纳美人瑟瑟发抖。一部戏同时完成弑父和弑母的两大悲剧主题，女主也太悲剧了。
合格的犯罪片，跟惊悚恐怖无关，除了音效，好在电影的节奏不算拖沓，基本是上来就开干。
明明就比第一部出彩。原来虎毒是会食子的，原来自家狗是会反水背叛主子的。
这样的电影总会有那些个瞬间让人动容，比如那几个最终的“荣耀时刻”，比如在最脆弱的时候来自家人的支撑。一开始就知道是大圆满的结局，所以整个片子相对平淡的推进让人觉得差那么一口气，似乎这是一个天才注定成功的结束，也确实，在职业体育界（所有领域），成功就是天才的专属；不成功，是天才自己“不想成功”。这个片子相较于过去的其他同类，太过平淡了
瞎眼老兵和狗，团灭贩毒集团 小成本小故事，但这可比上一部差远了，爽片但又不完全爽，第一部的压迫感荡然无存，打得不爽，煽情不够，不紧张也不够刺激，都已经不用屏住呼吸了
俗套的鸡汤故事，重点都是在感情戏上，除了真人真事比较加分。
3星，6分
标准的励志故事，你有梦想，有能力，并且准备好成功的路径，你就会成功
美国的变态为什么这么多啊，你们自相残杀去吧，别迈出国门嚯嚯别人。
从小屋转换到制毒工厂，从不要呼吸的紧迫感到功夫片，没内味了，第一部的压迫感荡然无存，建议改名第一滴血6老兵的愤怒。嘴巴被胶水封住，第一反应不是用刀把胶水戳开，而是在脸上捅个洞呼吸？？？5秒之后，又用刀划开了嘴上的胶水？？？我都看呆了。这是在侮辱谁的智商，光看到这里我都看不下去了…
血腥程度升级，节奏也挺紧凑，但没了盲人靠听力取胜的巧劲
挺感人的励志故事as good what he said
故事是很好的，但是人物传记，尤其是讲述多线的人物传记用来当励志片效果就没有那么理想。
长镜头很有想法
逻辑有点牵强。哪怕是小女孩目击贩毒现场也行啊。居然整出个父女。
整个儿变成动作片了。没有了屏住呼吸那种紧张感。老父亲真的太辛苦。
2021年了，面对疫情，美国ZF的麻木与不作为，美国民众的 懦弱 愚昧 ，药企的无良欺骗，让美国所有的励志片都成了笑话，零分
没看出来传奇，可能人生就是没那么多戏剧化。
小女孩太飒了。虽然这一部变成了动作片，不再有那种屏住呼吸的惊悚感，但是如果不当作恐怖片来看的话比上一部要好看。
写男主的困顿生活比较多，开那么远车两天被辞退就因为说一下没上场有点儿过分吧，打击也太大了，还好男主never give up
