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.
印度都开始拍同志自我身份认同的出柜片了 情感上可以对标LUCA 虽然男主最后出柜前的情感转变不够明确 铺垫得不太够 但最后桥上彩虹旗扬起来时还是看得有点泪奔（男主造型特别像Ted Lasso 导致喜爱度一开场就拉满了
不过还是挺下功夫的看得出来，就是细节有点落俗。
没有假戏真做，没有奉子成婚，结局没有离婚而是领养，情理之中
还可以。印度，如此伴随yangtaicelloaa2
至少在直面问题，虽然happy ending比较童话
尽管剧情拖拖拉拉但我想给5⭐
在印度能拍出这种电影 真不错 还是挺自由的 结局应该是算现行制度下的happy ending了
但as一部電影，happy ending總是好的。男主出櫃那刻我也看得很感動。
男主的妈妈，女主的爸爸，可能生命中，会有那么一个人，我们只要她/他的支持就好。
千萬不要形婚，尤其遠離男主這種直男癌暴力男同。本該引人思考的部分卻用玩笑話輕輕代過，一場鬧劇又臭又長。
印度respect🫡有婚礼还有游行🥹🥹有生之年能看到同种类型的中国版我头给你….（必不可少的载歌载舞hhhhh）
故事到最后，甚至美好得有点好笑。我不相信印度的现实是这样，但那不重要。
印度一个极致保守的国家，都能拍出一部如此商艺俱佳的同性作品，实属难能可贵。主题觉得不是同性平权等，而是人要真实的面对自己，只有如此，才能得到真正的幸福。喜剧部分做的优秀，矛盾和冲突都设置合理，角色也演的很好，除了必有的歌舞，其他都很不错，唯一就是家人态度的转变还是有些太容易了。当然那只有电视剧的长度才够了。
如果这是个欧美片，那我觉得有点落俗套了，这可是印度片诶！印度都与时俱进了，再看看我们！
我已经开始期待彩虹旗在印度的天空招展的时光了
佩服印度人啊！能够这么恰到好处，没有逃避现实问题，基调也很正！
评分:7分
不過電影可能是站在Partner角度考量，不想孩子成為紐帶，造成信任危機---萬一對方是bi呢？
而且在同性婚姻这个层面进步意义巨大
