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.
since you've started watching this film，as per statistics，8 women have been raped in our country.
三分之一就能预料剧情，却又在结局被谁是真凶吓了一跳。为国家命运而持续发声的印度电影，和真不咋地的印度国情，真是讽刺。
让人倍感震撼
陈思诚看了都要立马去拍《误杀3》。前期铺垫实在太长了，而且女主一看就是不会真杀人的啊，这就更无聊了。唯一值得表扬的就是“司机是凶手”的这个设定，有让我意外到。
老生常谈的事，
since you've started watching this film，as per statistics，8 women have been raped in our country.
演技可以的，剧情悲伤真实又荒诞。一方面，案发时没人去深究真相，连枪械指纹、火药反应都略过没测。一方面，年轻的少女法盲深信自己抗了雷，以至于人生直接崩溃开局（二十多年没问问五岁误杀犯罪么）。不过现在美国有父亲从女儿五岁就开始教射击了，还有十五岁少年的生日礼物——少年款专用武器在黑五促销，共和党号召每个班里都来几个持枪的少年保护安全，民主党号召穿防弹衣上学。少年枪击的普法教育也在一个接着一个案件的发生中，越来越好。（她妹没失忆…就很暗黑了。）
三分之一就能预料剧情，却又在结局被谁是真凶吓了一跳。为国家命运而持续发声的印度电影，和真不咋地的印度国情，真是讽刺。
里外都是监狱，没什么差别。部分情节商业味明显，搅乱整体调性，间接削弱了布洛克的精彩表演，受害者兄弟逻辑捉急，结尾交叉蒙太奇莫名其妙，如此若干问题持续摧毁观感，让本片最终十分平庸。
她挟持了16个孩子但没有伤害过他们 孩子们什么都不知道甚至任何恐慌情绪都没有。她勒索了政府五千万卢布 全捐给了受伤者自己一分没留。她把自己的伤口扯开给世人看 被大家咒骂被误解成抑郁至病的疯狂人士。她要什么？她希望强奸犯可以得到惩罚 她希望那些坏人不要再逍遥法外 她希望可以让全印度的女性能拥有一个安全的生活环境 仅此而已 仅此而已 仅此而已。
最后的字幕:在看这部电影的期间，有8个女人被强奸。。
裹脚布剧情。强行等等等。。。不值得高分。下次看评分要多点人才行。。
3星，这类社会题材，印度电影跟韩国电影一样，只能拍出来，现实很难解决实际问题，只能自我安慰。
被片名耽误的好电影，不要拿误杀2这样的烂片来做对比，至少也该是跟迫在眉梢一个级别。印度QJ案频发的现状已经让人望而却步，电影以此元素开展的剧情之紧凑完全让人挪不开眼，这一次没有歌舞，没有超长片场，层层递进，高潮频出，真相浮出水面之时就是你大感震撼之际
说来说去还是强奸案，印度除了这个似乎就没有其他了，节奏过于平淡，观影过程中没有紧张感。
8.1 节奏和压迫感恰如其分。第一部被桑德拉演技震撼到的片子。到了最后并没有心绞痛，如钢琴奏完的余韵，脑子给了泪腺反应然后留下了释然的眼泪。
桑爪很赞啊，最后那个大力又克制的涌抱太难了。后半段她的几次情绪起伏都给我整哭了，执着地怀着期待，却被内心的痛苦压抑，无能为力的人生好无助啊，还好一切努力都值得，虽然let it go很难，但日子总要继续。结尾哭抽了。当然大神的配乐也有加持。
现实需要这样的电影。身份揭露，让有些戏剧化的剧情合理了许多。
教科书般标准但也无甚新意。布洛克精确表演加一星。
能铺垫80分钟还不知道到底要干嘛的谜面就像是先看了一集明星大侦探，还好女总理的一句“Emotions can be assets”和对性别刻板印象的反击总算让人觉得来了点劲。而那个关于强奸的谜底则在母亲的一句反问中完全揭晓，后面的紧张甚至和总理面谈的高潮也变成了可预见的补充。对印度社会问题和女性困境的直击，以及对女警察、女总理、女主播和母亲等女性角色的着力没能挽回叙事节奏的失衡。
