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.
某种程度上是动画纪录片，关于六十年代的童年记忆。
童年自传，我们生活在当下，亦生活在历史中。
代入感很强，跟着理查德·林克莱特走进他的童年，走进光芒万丈的60年代。电影、音乐、桌游、户外、玩伴……还有阿波罗10½号的太空梦，我的9岁不曾拥有也无法企及的这些，羡慕得我连看了两遍。
无厘头的战争，无知无谓的一群人，受伤的总是民众
先分一些钱给...
童年自传，我们生活在当下，亦生活在历史中。
喜欢这种结构的故事，谁又能证明他没有登月呢，童年充满美好与幻想，平安长大太不容易啦。
A short tribute to his dazzling 60s.
2022.3.14，乌克兰武装部队使用圆点-U战术导弹攻击顿涅茨克居民区，这样的事情在顿巴斯过去的八年几乎每天都在发生。
好棒，通过孩子的视角讲述Space Program时代的世界，先是因为实拍转描动画这一形式点进来的，很像AMAZON的剧《Undone》，但却被故事或者说历史所吸引。
三星半。温馨又诙谐，it was fun to watch. 是一部Netflix电影。SXSW2022
俄乌战争期间，看完这部电影。此刻，俄军的“莫斯科”号已被乌击沉，但乌方的马里乌波尔市即将沦陷，战况陷入胶着。我写了一篇评论，认为“莫斯科”号沉没也许是俄军一个拐点，俄军成了哀军：国际上遭欧美严厉制裁，俄乌战场连连受挫。这头猛兽被逼上绝路，成为了一支哀军，俄必将不惜一切手段，要么生存，要么毁灭！有人在评论区问我，侵占别人的家园正义吗？我回复说，建议您看一部纪实电影《烈日阳光》，以及一部纪录片《顿巴斯》，也许会重新认识乌克兰这个国家，他们狠起来对自己的平民都能下死手，他们正义吗？
這一部作品是在描畫一個美國的太空人，讓他的孫子體驗上太空的傳承下來生活故事。
现在却需要重新夺回自己失去的一切才能再次征服和探险未知的宇宙。
三个感慨：1、这样的电影居然在网上找不到一部翻译合格的资源，咱们可是在国内啊～，所以你说西方这些无耻国家的舆论控制能力有多强～，在国内互联网平台上又有多少被他们收买的汉奸和走狗～；2、这些西方国家既邪恶又强大，永远不要指望与他们的斗争是一帆风顺的，当斗争遇到挫折时，千万不可缴械投降，只有团结和坚持才能看到胜利的希望；3、前几天美国纽约州刚刚发生枪击案，八死三伤，凶手专门击杀非裔美国人，而且制作了一百八十页的计划方案，其个人社交媒体上多次出现与乌克兰亚速营“黑太阳”同样的图案。天道轮回，善恶到头终有报。一切妄图用卑劣和邪恶制造霸权的人必将被卑劣和邪恶反噬，没有好下场！
看得很舒服，虽然是别人的童年，发生在一个我从未踏足的国度以及一个遥远的年代。
对于当代史的构建，音乐、电影、剧集、综艺等所有的流行文化堆砌成普通中产家庭孩子的童年，“亲身”参与了历史的大事件，并自觉地把自己当作是其中一份子，所谓的想象也在那一刻变成了真实，这是一种非常深刻的认同。我小时候看《泰坦尼克号》，没看完结局就睡着了，海水冲进船舱的画面成了不灭的记忆。主观不喜欢这部作品的原因在于，破碎到像是在做文献综述，呕吐“暂停了”50分钟属实没有必要。

“人的记忆就是这么奇妙 就算他睡着了 以后也会觉得亲眼见证了人类登陆月球” 小男孩因睡觉错过了登月直播 只好在脑中杜撰了一个自己登月的版本 后半段小男孩的登月狂想与真实登月录像的平行蒙太奇非常抓人 前半段是导演私心放入的美国60年代的日常生活图景 从生活百态到流行文化不一而足 动画的形式让整个观感非常舒服
前5分鐘的時候我在想這是什麼鬼畫風，和《阿加莎ABC謀殺案》（遊戲）有得一比，兩個NASA的人找一個小孩上太空好像也不是什麼特别題材，但5分鐘後成功挑起了我的興趣，原來是個叙事式的記錄片（相比主觀的回憶錄更像客觀的記錄片），把大量歷史畫面給動畫化了反而覺得這鬼畫風特别帶感，最吸引我的地方一來我本就對六七八十年代的流行文化感興趣，二來雖然是美國人的童年，但有些事還真是人類共通的，什麼家長打小孩，冰棍黏舌頭，惡搞歌詞那些，旁白吐的槽我都能會心一笑，過來人的感覺。不過，愛看的人應該很愛看，不愛看的人會覺得很悶，至少你得是個愛看叙事式記錄片的人。PS：本片很多新人，但有些人一看臉模就認出來了，比如雷霆沙贊。
