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.
深渊般的执念一起走进死胡同也算是一种“偕老”。陈湘琪演技炸裂。
挺做作的一部電影。又不致於難看，就是不疼不癢平平無奇的看完。做作的原因是鏡頭或某些畫面都有意無意想暗示主角的想法，但又不到位，挺尷尬和幫不到劇情推進。女主角用力演出但可惜遇著一個一般般的劇本。陳以文發揮不多，但也演出恰到好處，能演繹那種矛盾加一點點頹廢的中年男人心情。
这么屌的故事估计一般的导演都拍不好，最后眼镜妹那段哭戏也算是教科书级别的烂了
这个脑洞，如果是我的话，还真的有点小担心呢，万一我家的沙发觉得我太沉了，我的马桶也不爱我咋办，哈哈哈哈，不过绿萝会说爱我的！真的是有解压有搞笑。
感觉比《日不落酒店》还差。看不懂电影的主题是什么。阿震和草莓的恋爱故事？小偷改邪归正的故事？教训人生的平台多重要？
冲着了解古屋去的，只能说，hentai的世界我不懂
一场严太太在路边玩儿童滑梯的戏，很短却触动我最深。日复一日的生活被打乱，四处寻找消失的丈夫。镜头并不是近距离的特写交代，而是置在远处观察这个女人，那是无所事事甚至带着几分失魂落魄的肢体动作。她好失败，人前镇定自若，极力维持着体面的外衣，但一举一动都在戳穿她，那是急切的、快速的，迫切想要得到一个答案，寻找到不堪人生的真相，却在这样的行为里落得更荒唐无助的境地。
故事讲明白了，元素较多题材不多见，很日本的片子
我就记得田中圭一丝不挂在浴池里差点憋死那场。剩下的没了。我甚至有时候感觉是个病理研究片……
故事特别好，就是有些台词好尴尬，男女主演技也尴尬。。。。
蛮无聊的，也不知道钱翔为啥越来越像钟孟宏。要拍冰冷的夫妻生活，不能借鉴下萨金塞夫吗？而且既然出现了秘书这个角色，为啥不花更多点笔墨？
『日常幻想指南』漫画改编，看得出尽齐能的制造笑点，前半部分也还说的过去，但整个背景设置并没有搭建完整，后半部分只剩稀碎的剧情看的很凌乱，张子栋的角色堪称最大亮点，很有灵气，而对应的女主焦俊艳则是满屏尴尬。【5分】
可能我喜欢田中圭吧，看完感觉就普通，不算很讨厌
挺糟糕的，空洞且无物，一些意象化的段落没有很好的附着在剧力上。不是很能理解剪辑点频繁使用黑屏淡出的作用。陈湘琪的表演也有些陷入制式化，相比而言陈以文在本片中的某几场戏倒是更为传神。
这片要说拍的不够好，我同意。但是要说主演不用心，创意不到位，那你昧良心了。一个半小时，我看的还是挺顺畅。可惜剧本打磨的不足，荒诞但是不应该扯淡。有点可惜，本来应该更好的。一般吧...
生活过得浑浑噩噩谁又不是在修行呢。一听到刺耳的搅拌的声音就要崩溃的感觉！痛苦的煎熬啊！看不下去。。。台湾现在这些貌似现实主义题材的电影实在是不太好看，虽然之前也有看过很多台湾名导拍的这种题材的电影，还好不至于看不下去。。。这个有点儿太刺激了！闹心
如果是女子高生视角我会觉得有点酷的，男主视角只让我觉得无比做作……
什么东西啊简直看不下去，真是太浪费这种好变态题材了
不是，一边强调女高中生不是性对象一边又想被女高中生杀……但慕自我暗杀癖就是妥妥的性癖啊……可以不要这么无聊吗
值得一个三星的最重要一点是因为，剧情完整度很高，虽然用了很多烂梗但是对标一部轻松诙谐的喜剧片无可厚非。主角的演技基本在线、情绪到位，一些大咖拿来做个彩蛋点缀也算处理得当。不过个人认为一个很关键的弱点是让男主的转变过于生硬了，既没有明显铺垫男主从小被污名为偷后发展成惯偷的前因，也没有一个明显的行为明确给到观众男主洗心革面的节点，对于一部轻喜剧来说算个硬伤。
