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.
作为一部室内靠着对话不断反转的影片，剧情算不上优秀，甚至一些情节交代的都不是那么清晰，影片节奏也不算快，但是人物的设定很明确，节奏也很舒服，整体是有质感的。马克·里朗斯饰演的英国"绅士"也在不断反转的事件中也揭露了自己埋葬在心底的秘密和身世。这个金盆洗手的江湖人却总是摆脱不了江湖事，像极了古龙的武侠人物和故事。可惜影片故事中的计划更多的是随机应变的巧合，好在精湛的演技和适当的节奏，让紧张悬疑感淡化了故事里的"巧合"。三星半
单一场景舞台剧类型电影，有瑕疵，但整体瑕不掩瑜，是不错的电影
还蛮喜欢这种格调的片，主要男主演技好好啊，眼神里都是戏。唯一让我不解的就是中了两枪为何还能站起来，难道那俩人近战距离都能打出人体描边的效果？也不确认下有没有死透真是不专业。片尾好听。
把黑帮片拍出了推理片的趣味，封闭空间的又一部好戏
还不错，最开始略碎，但是自从里奇和弗朗西斯那段开始互相指着枪的对决开始就精彩起来了，后来里奇被杀他黑帮爹来店里找人那一段真是精彩，他爹发现里奇的外套时，我看得汗毛都竖起来了。最后一段火烧裁缝店时弗朗西斯又突然莫名站起来了感觉就有点强行没必要😬（可能主要是为了介绍裁缝的背景吧——他的第三个版本的小故事）最后。自从Kingsman开始，我就一直觉得英国的裁缝大概是一个神一样的存在，优雅但又稳狠准，大概都是深藏不露的特工级别，有着永远不领盒饭的主角光环吧😅。最后的最后。画面非常复古，色调和灯光很喜欢，恰到好处，在一间小屋子里的完成的电影，nice。👍
马东锡算是把正义暴徒演到骨子里了。第二部在人物性格的挖掘上更近了一步，笑点的编排也不生硬，各种娱乐元素的运用简直是炉火纯青。爽快之余，看着韩国的电影产业，真是羡慕啊。
雷纳德是一位手艺精湛的裁缝，一场火灾之后，他离开了伦敦，来到芝加哥，在这里经营着一间属于自己的裁缝店。店里的员工除了雷纳德自己外，还有一个名叫梅布尔的姑娘，梅布尔的父亲是一个臭名昭著的恶棍，背负着父亲的“盛名”，梅布尔下定决心要攒够钱，去看一看这个肮脏黑暗的街区以外的世界。
没看过战狼，要有这韩国狼的娱乐性那还能捏着鼻子找来看看
同样是裁缝，同样搞地下活动，如果《Kingsman》能拍成这样也比现在吃老本走下坡路强啊。全片被浓缩在一个小小的裁缝店，背叛、窃听、谋杀，一样不少，不过感觉反派们吃亏在“录音机”刚刚问世、尚未普及，不然这一计谋从一开始就要被拆穿。男主不慌不忙地下套、使绊，随机应变、信口开河的功夫确实了得，人生经历的设定也着实起伏，曾经的花臂大佬拿起了绣花针，但关键时候照样可以心狠手辣。
没预期惊喜，但还是很喜欢。第一反应是国内翻拍啊，又一想，别糟践好东西了
马东锡完美诠释了在绝对力量面前，一切罪犯都是纸老虎!
开头节奏有点慢，绅士风拿捏了。总体没有特别惊艳不过还是蛮有意思的妹子来历不清不楚，老头目的是当和平使者吗？
没啥特别大感觉，可能是对这个类型腻了，也可能是设计得不够出彩。
奥斯卡剧本提名保底。方寸之地见大阵仗，话剧的写法，一个个人物粉墨登场再一一退场，把黑帮你死我活的争斗浓缩在一间小小的斗室里，虽然有些情节上的小巧合（接电话之类）过于戏剧化，但小舞台大战争的戏剧张力使片子颇为精彩。
很容易被这种精致小巧的片给打动，几个房间几个人就唱完一台精彩的戏，说是反转其实也算是非常自然，说说马克里朗斯这种婆婆脸英男本以为会是亚力克吉尼斯那种演员，但是他太四平八稳了，就连敦刻尔克飞机要落水了他都淡定掌舵，这种片里这么淡定的老头一看就不简单，缺少爵士那种演戏的多变性和戏剧性，很可惜
密闭空间的精彩剧情，裁缝老爷子从头到尾都很优雅。
好久没有能让人目不转睛看到最后一刻的电影了。里朗斯真是神演技。
三星半。节奏有点慢，但和老裁缝的调调很吻合。剧情几度反转。
剧情有些硬伤，但演员的演技是真的可以的。值得四星
没预期惊喜，但还是很喜欢。第一反应是国内翻拍啊，又一想，别糟践好东西了
