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.
郑渊洁加一星。
有久违的80-90年朴素的儿童剧的感觉。我小时候就很喜欢郑渊洁，因为他完全是从儿童的视野来看世界。大人在他的故事里面是配角。他的童话趣味又不幼稚，小朋友会很愿意走进他创造的世界里，他的世界里没有对成绩差的孩子的偏见。大人的对你好的说辞，在他的童话里不会被承认。带着孩子一起看，觉得太适合孩子们看了。我们小时候放学就有动画片看，现在的孩子都是抖音小视频和游戏控制，成年化的娱乐。希望能扶持这样纯真童话电影，让更多孩子能被自己国家童话打动。
在不知不觉间，我已经完全从孩子蜕变成了家长。曾经以为我能理解他们，现在才发现自己和曾经讨厌的家长没什么两样。如大逃杀里讲的一样，大人和孩子是对立的，理解是暂时的，战争是永远的。
类型片套路。可哭了两次。一次是上尉舍己为人，让我想起了那些童年为我“挡枪”弃了的玩具。一次是舒克直升机上面的那次告白，其泪点如同哈利波特或者玩具总动员的最后分离，就挺戳的。
作为一个大人看的一脸尴尬 🙄 ，这不是童话书啊，这是强制规训营哇。
以为皮皮鲁更受我欢迎，没想到却被鲁西西圈粉了，小姑娘又好看又灵气，表演也算自然。
无论如何，不想用成年人的逻辑来评判儿童片，但是却又不能给儿童的世界一些真正儿童的东西，于是故事怎么讲都会拧巴，更是背后人与人与社会的拧巴
就记得看过这个故事，但是啥剧情都不记得了。。。
罐头小人的故事在我脑子里一直是个童话故事，好像更适合动画片，拍成真人版总觉得怪怪的，几个小演员没什么经验，表演也很一般
有些人真的是属于外国片子放低标准，对国内电影吹毛求疵，贼双标
郑渊洁或者于飞肯定有一个是山口百惠的迷弟。。。
挺适合跟孩子一起看的，跟他说爸爸小时候看过的童话终于拍成电影了。两个小主角还挺符合我心中皮皮鲁和鲁西西的形象。很欣慰的一点是把时间设定在八九十年代，复古的家具家电看着很亲切。
这个皮皮鲁选的有点问题，比较适合动画片，不太适合真人版
太好看了，中国从不缺好的故事，缺的是像这部能把郑渊洁好看的故事拍成电影也好看的能力
原著经典，台词有趣，老少皆宜，还带点思考的电影。情节有修改不过能说得通，小人的打光有些融不进去，后期一般。希望有一天能在大荧幕上看见莱克。
教育法律医学，三大信息不对等造成的垄断，本剧里的教育演绎占在模板顶峰哇。
陪着外甥女看完此片，片中90年代的《自然》课本等，满满的是童年回忆。成年人看此片的理由，无非是寻找记忆中童年的影子，小学时每隔一段时间家人就从城里捎来《童话大王》儿童杂志，皮皮鲁与鲁西西、舒克与贝塔等，太好看了。片子拍得不错，拍出了原童话故事中的味道，推荐小学生们观看。
除了后面火灾的改编有点夸张以外，真的是满分！还原童年幻想，期待魔方大厦
拍的很程式化，该怎么样的地方就怎么样，适合三到六年级小朋友观看。
嗯对于儿童片来说还不错啊，剧情没啥硬伤，整体也比较合理（后面鲁西西连考试都没考结果评了优秀确实有点跳啊），给小孩子看还是不错的。小主演们演得很好，值得鼓励吧
