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.
“那一天，就是今天。”
哥哥长相有点像徐娇。伊桑霍克全程面具差点没认出来。
这片子意外的好。铺垫细节足够丰富，没有白交待的事儿，节奏紧凑，后面也越发有意思，结局也很有感觉。
儿子致敬老爸的电影小丑回魂 哈哈哈 男主妹妹智商在线
在配乐上确实加强了观感。歌曲本身自带的年代感以及后几段的诡秘感让这个带点小奇幻的惊悚片有了一丝亮点。这种剧情本身的模板是挺常见的，但我觉得其实本身就没有黑色电话打进来过，更像是芬尼为了自救想尽一切办法而产生的幻觉？当然只是一种想法。但怎么说伊桑·霍克出演的角色真的好水...还有种见光死的感觉，没有面具就会害怕。但怎么想，掳童犯居然是被芬尼的计谋搞死的，自己大意是一回事，难道芬尼比罗宾强吗？还是之前的都没来得及反抗就被杀害了啊？最后一段是本片精华了。
《拐骗儿童自救手册》：用少年的记忆替代心路历程挺好的。但其他人物的存在和诡异行径似乎只是因为这是部恐怖类型片；同时，罪犯随便找个路人来演区别也不大
结局太普通，
一般，略显乏味，虽然两个孩子和伊桑·霍克的表演都很不错，甚至于伊桑·霍克给人的感觉就与角色非常贴切。可能是因为文化的原因，不少隐喻我没有理解，所以有这种单薄的观影感受。但是，前有小丑主题的恐怖片，我相信这类电影还是有直击人心深处的恐怖元素，但是在这部电影中，没有什么感觉。
说是恐怖片，更有点像儿童奇幻片，最后通过种种努力，孩子们团结起来打倒了坏人，有点像小丑回魂的感觉。
超自然灵异与悬疑犯罪拼接的创意不错，可惜拍得不温不火。作为本片的破局关键，地下室墙上那部老旧黑色电话成为链接阴阳两界的通讯工具，在死去孩子的协力帮助下，主角得以依靠亡者提供的信息一步步开展逃生计划。只能算是中规中矩的商业恐怖片，完全可以执行地更好，节奏过于平缓，叙事几无波折，剧情简单到没有任何反转与诡计，密室逃脱的过程也因为直给的线索丧失了紧张感，伊桑·霍克居然演了一个毫无魅力的变态反派，直接拉低整部片子的格调。“总有一天你得为自己挺身而出，而那一天就是今天。”纵使身陷绝境也要奋起反抗，无论如何都不要放弃生的希望，恐怖片外壳下，内核其实还是青少年在面对压力和恐惧后获得成长的故事。电影无论背景还是各种元素都很有斯蒂芬·金小说的味道，小镇、气球、面具怪人、黄色雨衣，确实赤裸裸地致敬《小丑回魂》。
这部还蛮可爱的，那啥是真的有点废hhhhh。
密室逃脱线索直给到空虚，如果编剧都能有最后线索串起来那段的敬业水平，应该是个四分电影
3星半，伊桑霍克怎么接了这么一个角色？最后10分钟很精彩。
虐童犯终于遭天谴了，碰到个会通灵的兄妹，不过他死了是不是也变鬼了？
兄妹情感人，妹妹棒呆了，中间墨迹，结尾爽到，另外虽然没直接描述过grabber的经历，但完全可以给他做个画像。
风格和氛围塑造都很不错，可惜剧本太单薄。3星。
[视]微血，导演<奇异博士><险恶><地球停转之日>，巴德尔出演。小孩绑架案，大量<怪奇物语S1>元素，复古小学，家暴校凌，梦境失踪，时空交流，座机静电，返校之姿。单车，雨衣，斧子，遗传，拆分面具，别墅玩具，小女孩发型像穆斯林，混血亚裔，黑人警探，没有双重人格，没凑成三概念，结尾一般。前三拳闪避反击打挺好，诱饵引犬，游戏感强烈
一个简单到甚至有点稍显单薄的故事。小男孩在地下室收到的各路超自然提醒，倒不如看作是内心的对话和不同程度的觉醒，就是要慢慢学会保护自己。
太有意思了！选角无敌，智商在线！男主身上有犬之力的味道。
最后一段走上中学人生巅峰的剧情有点起点了，前面都可圈可点，偶尔响起的不知道应该期待还是恐惧的电话铃声让人神经一直紧绷，几个少年的突然出现也很有恐怖氛围，整体的紧张感比小丑回魂高了好几个档次，可能漂亮国人看小丑天然带debuff吧，那片子真的一点也不惊悚。再一次被伊桑霍克的表现惊艳，他对声线语调的把握真的堪称精妙。
