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.
合格 但是竟然0火花 被隔壁101次求婚吊打
不错的chickflick了，Nina老太快了，哎
中规中矩的圣诞电影。但是好莱坞是没有好看的亚裔面孔了吗。还有女人的不幸从同情男人开始，如果你发现网恋对象是照骗，赶紧跑。
氛围感电影。挺圣诞的但是剧情不能细想，奔现发现网恋对象照骗就应该跑了
好看，happy end 真实的自己才会闪闪发光哈哈哈
终于有一天jimmy欧阳也能演rom com男主角了
特意查了下编剧是谁，好奇剧情能写得这么狗屎
虽然他们两个在一起没啥化学反应，但整体温馨就好。
找不到电影看的情况下可以看看 看了开头就知道结尾的剧情 充斥着各种烂俗桥段 圣诞氛围有一点点 聚会时候看感觉还行
实在是太粗糙了，毫无逻辑可言，女主的穿搭和男主的演技还不错吧
Tell them it's the Mormons!
能不能别把亚裔搞得那么丑，求求了。剧情就那样，你吃个饭看的电影，还想怎么样。
活着见到nina新电影了…有点过于美好的故事，有些戏剧性也很那个，但是很温馨，主角演技很细腻看得很舒服…偶尔还是要靠点幻想故事温暖生活呀
现在的chick flick真的越来越难拍了
前面确实很搞笑啊，本来想当做爆米花电影看看的，后面真的有些不适。为了在家里有存在感就强迫女主订婚，还有那个帅男date一次就默认女主为女朋友，关键女主最后还回去找亚裔男，属实看不太懂。欧美白人女性已经卑微到这种地步了吗
如果在12月上映绝对有机会超越love actually成为最难看的圣诞电影
爷爷味蜡烛、偷报纸这些很轻的元素不错，结尾致敬真爱至上太lazy writing
反转的反转，最后是happy ending，但如果真有一位女性现实中这么摇摆的话，收获幸福的机会可能更渺茫吧
20211106就是那种很套路的爱情电影，不过看着也还好，美女配个长相一般，不高大威猛的男有问题吗？人家起码有话可聊
such a cliche，达咩Netflix的电影
