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.
最后那个初中生?还挺意外的，本来看前面他俩对话还以为只是安藤的幻想分裂人格啥的，，
想着如果能了解一些也能多一些尊重
影片所依据的真实事件，发生在1980年1月25日的南非。十年后曼德拉才出狱。
人质中说自己有“黑人情结”的白人女性其实是得了白化病的黑人女性啦
黑人主旋律电影就算了吧，黑人统治的下场是什么，对比一下以前的南非就知道了。
看了一个半小时左右，剧情让我有点看不下去了，但是神尾枫珠真的好帅啊啊啊踩在我的审美点上！！
如果世界上没有偏见和歧视，所有人类都团结起来，这个世界会是怎样的？
是一场相互救赎吗？应该是一场最终的互相理解吧。
电影很喜欢，是每年都想重温的那种。虽然我觉得拍成悲剧也不错...仅从艺术性上看（悲剧美学爱好者）
自由的代价是什么?
自由的代价是“生命的一切”。故事很精彩，描绘了南非一群为了理想和正义而战斗、牺牲的战士和英雄，同时也展示了殖民主义、种族主义分子的偏狭残忍。
总体还行，在商业属性达标的基础上，也完成了政治诉求，一些细节的设计够用心，但作曲水平过于低下，高潮片段配乐劣质且不符合基调，强行拉低观感，6.5。
另外三位南非“革命先驱”在片中形象真的一点都不高大全。男主卡尔文有哮喘，也不像是特别聪明的人。但当你看到他们为了那个在当时根本不可能达成的目标而拼上一切时，又深深的使人动容……
无语，基佬虽然骗婚生子但是他们很可怜啊！他们只是不想被说恶心啊！他们只是也想有自己的子孙啊！女人就活该做基佬尝试的工具人。分数是给神尾弟弟的颜值和肉体的，以及后t最近都接的什么奇怪角色…
山田杏奈
包容和接纳才是进步
这个世界有很多种不平等，种族不平等是他妈最荒谬的！
喜欢对声音的表达，所以我觉得这就是一部大女主电影（
前1个小时铺垫过长，而且并没有把人物性格人物背景交代好，好在后30分钟的高潮捡起来了。“若为自由故，一切皆可抛”。
