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.
谁是影子？不过是为了正义形象虚构的分身。暗夜里，身与影合而为一，并无分别。
虽是杜撰，但不难看出“杜撰”只是一个挡箭牌，与真实历史有很大关联。如果说《南站的部长们》是集多重矛盾于一起，那么这部电影是散多重矛盾于一滩，虽然会感觉矛盾冲突推的不够，但细想这种暗流涌动本也是政治斗争的一部分。
本片所探讨的矛盾令人深思，我们暂且忽略韩国是否有真正代表人民的民主斗士，单就正直的人是否必须用正直的手段战胜对手这个问题，就很值得讨论，其实就这样的问题可以创作很多作品，观众也一定会分为两派，这用来拍更为贴近生活的商业片可能收效会更好。
想要光明磊落，以纯粹正义之路登上权力的顶峰，是不现实的。实际一点就是看谁够狠。
如果目的是正义的，但是为了达到这个目的，使用了一些非正义的手段，是可以接受的还是不可原谅的呢？
当成纪录片儿去看比较合适。李善均的片儿不用看，只用耳朵听也是一种享受！
韩国是个心态很窄的国家 任何事都以夸大数倍的样子呈现 内核却虚弱的可怜 而且在东西价值观上不断骑墙
影子都知道怎么做，主人怎么可能不知道。也就到此为此了，政治这东西，真正去嘲笑的人才是二逼，族群社会以后，还有比这复杂的事么，科学1是1，政治上1可能是无穷。
影帝们就是精彩，这简直就是当代孔明吧！韩国的政治真的就是一场赤裸的交易游戏，也就韩国敢把这些拍出来，要是其他国家能够拍可能比韩国要精彩不少吧？
《南山的部长们》后最值得一看的韩国政治电影，很难简单地展开说，信息量大，需要大概的人物对应和历史脉络，但对韩国人来说再熟悉不过了。钦佩于他们的胆大，也尊重这种在类型片中试图讨论复杂理念的勇气，尽管有不少的套路和缺陷，但这种影片总会让人再次正视电影与社会存在关系的意义之一，给薛景求加一星。
到底谁引爆了炸弹？为了正义的目地是否可以不择手段？你所谓的正义是否只是胜利？因为历史由胜利者书写。政治就是一场戏，可俺们只有看戏的资格，因为人民不是公民。
為了正義的目的可以不擇手段,這是不擇手段者的自白.
而棒国政坛，再光明的愿景也与黑幕相伴，也是积重难返的畸形。
我肯定是不会因为非常生气也变成偷鸡蛋那种人的，也不会去栽赃陷害偷鸡蛋那个人，也不会以德报怨把鸡蛋再送给那偷鸡蛋的人，奢望他能良心发现不再过来偷鸡蛋。
不知道评分为什么这么低？明明很好看啊，就是字幕太乱了，有时候靠猜和上下文来理解。
过于强调个人的作用了，没有惊艳的感觉，6.5吧
道胜还是术胜，每个角逐者看法不同。而所谓的正义，恰似片中反派所说，谁胜利了就代表了正义。影子虽然为了内心理想，使用了各种阴损毒辣，但他内心应该是极度鄙视自己，而羡慕金云范的。
韩国人拍政治片真是越来越漂亮了，king maker是指金大中的影子军师严昌禄。光线越强，它的阴影越黑暗，也许电影中营造的二人情谊和关系过于理想化，但是仍被深深打动。从底层一步步爬到总统竞选，光明面是“正义形成社会秩序”，黑暗面则是“为了正义可以使用任何手段”。以鸡蛋做隐喻，如何对付偷蛋的邻居？我会在第二天送给他蛋当作礼物并告诉他错怪了他偷蛋，如果他有良心的话就会反省自己，如果他没有良心呢？那我会来找你。
拍得景还不错，虽然在同质类里面也有，内容就还好。
韩国有五千年的历史💩💩💩真是扯蛋！要不说韩国人脸大，大方脸比较多呢！电影虽然略有沉闷，因为是政治类型的电影，而且有历史背景，所以不会像娱乐片那样精彩，不过也让我一口气看完！
