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.
看印度电影看跳舞总是很带感，女主被塑造成主角光环的傻白甜实在是……还是喜欢疯批美人的感觉……
印度电影真的是…能把这样的电影拍出来却改变不了一丁点种姓制度的恶心。好歹我不是药神之后药还进医保了吧…某些人就别吹拍出来就是勇气了好吗？谁还比谁少了似的
气质打造得比较成功 但是一些情节转折 包括人物的思想转变方面 描述得并不够清晰自然。
7。
套了个女权的外衣，就是所谓的爽文，美工太敷衍了，完全看不下去
平时打分手太松，现在打五星无法体现看完后的心情了，只想再加五颗星。
女主太帅了，每一段抽烟的眼神太绝了。画面和结构也很美。
在印度这个国家，如果不努力保障性工作者的权利，拉皮条、强奸只会愈演愈烈。甘古拜虽然获得了黑帮大佬的青睐和帮助，但她个人的魅力和实力才是她由弱变强的最大支撑，逆来顺受只会让施暴者变本加厉，主动出击才是生存竞争的必胜法则。
整部电影立意是好的，但感觉剧情有一些逻辑硬伤，以及后面宣扬的合法化无法苟同不做评价
甘古流淌在血液里的狂野，狠辣和柔情，一脸不屑的神情遮盖着深情款款的爱意。在后座和小裁缝调情，节日里跳着迸发生命力的舞蹈，永远一副老娘可以搞定一切的架势，可为什么给我一种她真的爱着她的工作，并一直捍卫做这份工作的感觉
看的很开心…欣赏这样的女性…女主很漂亮 发量好多…孟买女帝…
人人都见识有限，可依然会因此被抨击
故事挺不错的，唯一不能理解的是，被男友一千卢比卖掉的女主，为什么还会轻易喜欢上一个小白脸。真的是轻易，一见钟情那种。
想到了SJL为女性同工同酬的提案，甘古拜也是同样为一部分人发声，但是是颠覆宗教和所有国家面子上的价值观，有点厉害👍
印度这个国家
解决问题的根源在于真正意义上的提高女性的地位，保障女性的权益，而非片中所言
虽然是传记类的，但不得不说印度电影一言不合就跳舞的固定情节依然是逃脱不掉。
典型的好莱坞式叙事。影片的意识形态我持保留意见，接收作为妓女的事实是前提，但是接下来应该反抗，而不是将暴力合理化。大女主的叙事掩盖了残酷的底层现实。
似传记也似小说
