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.
救人就是救己，户外远行徒步爱好者必看的影片。故事讲的很简单，大概就是“老太太本来不过马路，我为了做好人好事，愣给老太太搀过去了”。人物也很少，大女主加个男配角。大女主是个海边曼彻斯特的人设，做了个好人好事，但是阴差阳错结果。我每年都去白山区域的华盛顿山附近，跟电影里的地貌有些不同，本片是波兰影视公司投拍，估计是在阿尔卑斯山脉取景的吧。
To be dirty, rich and dead.
不是每一部帮派电影都是教父，也不是每一个没能化解的遗憾都是布朗克斯的故事。帮派电影的黄金年代可能一去不返了吧。
以为是哪个老太婆，竟然是大名鼎鼎的娜奥米沃弛，岁月是把杀猪刀啊！这么简单一个题材，做成五分钟的新闻报道就好了，搞成一个半小时是不是有点浪费时间！
最后的片尾曲让我加上了情怀的一颗星。
小成本，戏很简单，剪辑一般，节奏缓慢。人物性格模糊，行为合理性存疑。
两星半。好无聊，要不是因为黑道家族才不补这个片。还不如拍成迷你剧。
在一众慢节奏的日影中本片算快的，最起码开篇有让人往下看的欲望（我对日影真的很宽容了😅）结局是有点虎头蛇尾，但其实从有人借三万有人还三万开始就能感觉到这三万里应该有文章。风pon确实演技杠杠的，一众来打酱油的实力派女优们也表现不俗，七濑妹子的北陆方言软乎乎的，没有本地人味儿那么冲哈。
沉浸式遇险体验+预防自杀干预导向，小成本的电影本身更像是一种价值观宣教片。

前方的叙事确实有些拖沓，但是并没有很难理解，最后串起来的时候也很舒适。
不该这么低分，解谜的部分有点一泻千里，总体来说还是有意思的。很喜欢这个电影的色调。
这种电影，问题是一开头观众就知道他要演什么，包括会遇到什么困难，心灵的救赎，大自然的壮丽景观等等。就算导演把所有这些都呈现出来了，看完以后也就觉得平常，没什么惊喜，除非你有极强的超展开。
与瑞茜·威瑟斯彭主演的《涉足荒野》如出一辙，都是自我救赎重新面对社会的一种方式。只不过娜奥米沃茨以54岁高龄出演这样尺度的小制作是否值得？
浅薄无聊做作垃圾，分不清男主的演技和片子本身谁在拖后腿
最后一抹淡淡的释怀而已。。。ps，女神也老了啊。。。
两星给娜酱的，这剧情我看得云里雾里，始终搞不明白想表达什么。
因为未接触过，所以觉得很新奇。遇车路过那段完全不需要，回家之后吃点东西洗个澡就可以end了，或者结尾再加段重遇谈几句和女主的特写就cut了吧，给点留白就行。(三星半)
根據真實故事改編；
这样的故事讲出温情来不容易，更多的是与风暴搏斗，但后面两人再见时情景我更喜欢。不完美的人生更是完美的。
