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.
#PYIFF in Beijing第一场展映
一共120分钟，塞进去十个故事，齿虫，密室逃脱等可以好好扩充一下，应该会不错。
好多个小故事组成，印象最深的就是那个牙齿里有寄生虫的
看多了就免疫了，一般吧，模特那个还凑合，够怪异。其它没什么新意！
不太敢看😰😰😰，一段一段的，也还蛮有意思……
确实蛮像科长十多年前世纪初的作品的，入选平遥也符合他一贯以来对第三世界电影/现实命运的关怀，一种镜像的创作怜悯，完成度放第一梯队没什么问题。怀揣梦想渴望联系的个体在冷漠时代背景下无奈的处境，无时不刻都是巨大的对比，上一秒还在街头骑着摩托做着舞蹈明星的梦，下一秒就已背负所谓家庭寄予的厚望枷锁。身体不适且难以沟通的怀旧父母亲，叛逃出家庭的姐姐、移居海外的挚友、失能的爱意已无处安放。柬埔寨的整个城乡人群结构和当代中国别无二致，背井离乡在繁华中心积攒日后返乡生活成本的青年们，向着注定宿命拼命挣扎的大厦蝼蚁，不幸又相似的落寞。那些在现代无节制的城市变迁中无处可去的百姓们、老龄化无活力的市井，作为同为高压环境下的东亚人很难不去共情，但即便如此，我们所最终记住的，也是曾自由洋溢过热情的动作与那喧嚣的楼屿。
质量仍和上一季一样参差不齐，密室逃脱、人体模特、齿虫相对来说较好。我蛮喜欢齿虫的前半部分渲染，后半部分就是一部司空见惯的丧尸片。如果拍第三季的话，请集中几个故事又或是仅专注一个故事展开，不要再浪费颜值盛宴好吗。
你去瞅瞅隔壁《世奇》，人家就算近年水准下滑，也至少能保证完整地有逻辑地讲清楚故事，你呢？
没有一个让我满意的故事，但是冥婚那个小哥哥很可爱
一个恐怖片给我看困了，算是打着精神看完的。都是短短短故事，节奏快难免粗陋，所以观感并不算好，有几个故事逻辑有硬伤。但是，点掐得挺好，演员也好看，加半星吧。不过看完我一个故事都挑不出来，所以总体还是不太好。
这大概是短视频时代下无脑恐怖电影的模范代表
故事的想法还可以，就是每个故事时长太短了些，有种吃鸡肋的感觉了
坐在导演正后方。八方支持，实现心愿的作品。摄影还不错哇。
补一下在平遥没机会看到的这部 很喜欢这些东南亚背景下的电影 潮湿 闷热 和科长早年拍的片子的感觉有点像
9：人形模特
无聊~~很垃圾的特效，很粗糙的伪纪录片镜头。剧情没有深度，没有意义。
大部分只是交待一个粗糙的情境而已，效果还是一惊一乍式的，没有情感，没有意义。因为是短片集，竟然也就看完了
123分钟，10个故事，就像看超短篇，喜欢恐怖片的会觉得很有趣吧…
剧情老套，但有十个故事，节奏快，以量取胜。每个故事都是俊男美女，养眼
韩国人对于“怪谈”的理解出现了一些根本性的偏差
