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.
一部分裂的电影，一边是如《阿甘正传》一般的爱情故事，另一边是似科教片一般的生命探寻，如果单独独立，是两部不错的题材，一个拍的细腻温润，一个拍的前卫大胆，但两者结合一起真的觉得怪异😂PS.虽然小时候的故事发生地在青岛，但你们说的是我大潍坊话！可太亲切了。
2.5 脸看不出来就算了，如此浑厚的声音也听不出来嘛

人性正在磨灭狮子的兽性，但有一个没有出现的镜头就是本来听到了枪声可是狮子却没事，这里在我看来是马戏团的人开枪吓走了狮子吸引了警察的注意，但是影片却并没有过多的解释，有的只有团长带他儿子走时说的，我会想其他办法的！
跨性别主角的出场设计还挺巧妙的 我真的差一点就要以为另一个主角是黑人男gay蜜了 然后船上留下了一位旁观者陪着男主 两人都被留在了夕阳下还挺美好的 顺便一夸这片子的画面真的好美
故事不错，演技也到位，但这个干细胞的设定简直拉低智商。
在前面的长铺垫下，丹尼尔转变的契机看起来非常脆弱，以前期的人物塑造走向来看他的自尊心彻底崩溃再次走向暴力更有说服力。
3.5。带着最低的希望“入场”，获得了期待已久的惊喜。看前半部分以为要纠结于二人的爱情，后半部分完全断裂后，才发现是男主的独角戏。它的剧作完整体现了王朔的心境，这是关于一个从童年起就在内心最期待的情感意识上始终徘徊不前的人的内心恐惧和悔恨，他不断被动和主动的失去，也因此一直躲闪着站在所有事情的外围忧疑审视，之所以要贪婪又悲观地无限延长生命，就是为了等待那个可以真正行动的时机而已。正是有了这个内在横贯的主题，他才有“胆量”把剧作内容切成上下两个互不关联的部分。某种程度上，可以把它看作是《非诚勿扰2》的续集。如果导演层面上在多点想象力和整体美学考量，后半部分不像百米冲刺一样草率地讲完所有剧情，这片会是今年国产院线片里情感态度最严肃真诚的一部。
56/100。#Venice#情节上呈现出的话题度、画面上传达出的动人感以及演员的颜值各个方面都无可指摘，但是感觉导演真的太刻意了，由此引发了节奏上的混乱。本来没必要着重强调的人物铺垫拼了命地展开，后面主人公之间终于发掘真实自我的重点内容却又觉得不够，看完只觉得“这些深柜和异装癖的戏真的好多啊”。 @2021-09-08 01:49:05 @2021-12-23 01:33:08
山无陵天地合我都要点这个赞。
很喜欢一些南美电影的vibe
电影给到了两位主角个人的状态 如同电影的名字使得电影更加属于主角各自最为私人的部分 只是这样做便显得起承转合都太突然了…
你为什么骗我？不..是你自己骗了你自己..
男主一开始真的很挫，救啊结果越看越性感辣得我头晕目眩，这片给我整体感觉是一种衣衫单薄的闷骚，其实风格没有很像王家卫，我想导演领略到了内核。水坝和湖好美好美
披着浪漫外衣的1818新闻：中年单身单子奔赴2000公里见女网友，车震时却发现对方是个男的。
警察直男之爱上女装大佬之最后在一起了，没有很亮点的地方。
看完前半段 三星半 看完后半段 两星 前后分裂感太重 想了个点子写不下去大概就是这样吧？片子里随处可见的物化女性总让人觉得难受

王珞丹王传君王朔…三王基本是文艺界的标榜了。王老可以好好讲故事么？青梅竹马、意外分合、国外求学、错爱、车祸、破镜重圆、借腹生女…都全了。王老可以好好讲情怀么？柏拉图、看破生死、植物人不离不弃、容颜不老却永远爱恋…也都足。王珞丹的几个年代扮相都可，明艳青春、中年疲惫…王传君也没有脱离儿童期的呆萌，始终如一的憨厚。but元素太多情怀太满，应接不暇…王老可能真的是老了
摄影太好了，开头的一段独白直击我的灵魂，但时间过长稍显疲乏
