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.
总的来说作为诚意国产片值得4星，比同背景的悬崖之上差了不少，1.42亿的票房也多少说明问题不少。做为国产片的硬件进步很明显，硬式视觉风格很赞同，值得鼓励下加到5星⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
毫无吸引力的英雄电影，导演太差劲，白瞎了两个好演员。最后车内打斗令人震惊，30年前的水平。
遇到一对诡异的老夫妇，可把这群拍成人片的年轻人吓的不轻，剧情大概都是这样，只不过特性太出戏了，哈哈哈
范伟的个人演技秀，映衬得所有人都黯然失色。
蛮烂的。这是我少数没看完就离开影厅的电影。
我们先辈的英雄电影给拍成这样，处处都假的不行。剧情有似没有，莫名其妙迷迷糊糊，大雪纷飞一头雾水。只有范伟老师一个人在认认真真塑造着角色。包括张涵予在内所有人物都被蒙在皑皑白雪后面看不清楚。要不是时间太晚，我都想把老电影《铁道游击队》再看一遍。
然后这个试图不那么抗日神剧，而想玩谍战，但这谍战也实在是弱，最终还是变成了抗日神剧。
节奏一般 但看到老年人doi的时候 我下巴掉了……
看了30分钟，不想看了。画面太暗，前面叙事不清，到10分钟左右才大概弄清怎么回事，主要还是没吸引住后看，剧情估计还是八九不离十。就这样吧，缘尽于此。
红色经典翻拍很难，的确有些成功的样板戏，但是都一个套路叠加就成了大乱炖的缝合怪啦，哎，就不要再毁童年啦
范老师的表演showtime，手榴弹扔的也忒帅了！
马伯庸前脚刚说完日本直到1945年才研制出盘尼西林（离量产还远）后脚本片编剧就把这个不可能的茬当个麦格芬放火车上推动高潮戏了，范伟的表演还是稳，前面刚看过《不速来客》里的机智老贼，这会儿就给你上个站台王酒鬼，那个拔栓拉弦儿扔雷的动作一气呵成，然后不回头爆炸的真男儿演的活灵活现。至于张涵予，他一直都在演自己，或者说杨子荣，或者说谷子地，或者说闷三儿，或者说和战狼并列的主旋律专业户，其实这片文戏还行，比之老版铁道游击队对日本人的刻画可以说比较接近现实，编剧也明白一个基本的道理：反派不够强大凸显不出英雄的伟大。但一到打戏就有点露怯，特别是最后的炸火车高潮戏，实属拉跨，没啥看点，最后甚至非常俗套的反派话多，英雄就义，身上一捆炸药包的威力堪比一百吨TNT，直接进入了八百里开外射杀鬼子的神剧剧情。
老俗套了，烧锅炉那里智商税太高。勉强及格。

范伟全场最佳，太阳下山了，弹起我心爱的土琵琶
表面的一些工业化的东西让人看下去，内核里的东西让人看了跟没看一样。
既不足够色情，也不足够血腥。虽然说涉及老年人性欲这种较为新颖的话题，但终归还是B级片套路，和《致命弯道》《隔山有眼》等同题材的作品相比，反派战力过低，便当过程泛善可陈，味道过于寡淡了。PS：一开始还以为“清纯女”会活到最后，没想到收场如此潦草。
拍的不错，质感很好，很优秀，现在的抗日电影拍的越来越好了。
大雪纷飞的年代，哈气成冰，范伟是全篇的灵魂，这一展油灯，提起来就照亮了一列火车的轰鸣。这盏灯像是希望、火种，无数英雄用生命来延续他的辉煌、灿烂。
追评：今天去电影院看了。。。我起码睡着了三次 也不知道是我昨天睡太晚还是这个电影确实太无聊。。。。不过质感还是不错，画面音效还有几位演员的演技都很好，问题是剧情真是拖沓得有点离谱了。。。这波是编剧的锅。
