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.
反抗，不就是一死吗
A-. 从家装穿搭到胶片色泽，再到温白开般云淡风轻的恬淡，都让人想起侯麦。反复出现的《圆月映花都》则直接构成情感脉络的centerpiece：nothing lasts forever，我们终究都是相伴又分离的过客。不同于侯麦的哲思，它用深夜电台般的温柔治愈，给伤心人陪伴，为巴黎城写诗。而当我离开这座城市，也一定会频频想起这部电影，告诉自己，我也曾是那片夜里的一位旅人。2022.2.14 Berlinale
【4.5】举重若轻地处理着生活境况，犹如不经意的一瞥，柔和了每个夜晚。
#22Berlinale 1
情感十分复杂。其实电影的分数有些虚高了。从住进那座公寓，到最后搬出来，这几年的时光，有泪水也有笑声，还有更多细碎的片段。好像经历了一段他们的生活。那些美妙的夜晚啊，我们并没有听到任何一个人讲的故事，却都沉醉在了夜色里。
Pascale Ogier hante ce film…
真的非常·没意思。甘斯布的角色依旧是悬浮的，就算住在13区的HLM里，还是如梦似幻的巴黎女人。想要诗化巴黎，好呀，但别为了怀旧而诗化。
悉尼电影节SFF第7场，我们是如此容易破碎，却又在爱里，在夜里，在电影里，一次又一次地完整。永远爱夏洛特·甘斯布，美丽永远不受任何限制，美丽永远不会因失去而失去。
好喜欢影片的质感和配乐，Gainsbourg竟然已经在演两个孩子的妈了，但她真的好温柔。
想送给我的孩子一本日记
【有一些温暖是永存的】好幸运他们为了生活不是为了生计 笑容可能是塞纳河畔的微风真的很舒服
圆夜梦花都这个电影我也喜欢，没想到也看过几部小女主的电影了，形像有可塑性，未来可期
整体感觉好像一部80年代的德国电影……完成度不错但又似乎缺乏点“新意”。导演让剧中的小青年们看侯麦听Television，法国人民的品味就是这么厉害的嘛~
夏洛特真的和小时候长得一模一样，我真的想在电影里看她和女人上次床。
8.0 不同人生轨迹所交汇的两个瞬间，镜头全然回避了那些生命中的伤痛和遗憾，以温柔的笔触抚摸旧时的伤疤，以记忆的碎片填补内心的缺失，几乎是完全聚焦于个体的，哪怕是那些迷影的时代符号和纪实影像的插入也没有刻意向社会层面靠拢。
还是要去爱，为了会到来的分离，这些分离构成我们生命中所有的黑色废墟，借以游荡继续向前走去
轻盈随性 绝美的色调 柔和的光影 温暖舒适的室内设计 浪漫的巴黎风景 寻常的故事和台词 穿插的八零年代巴黎景色是精髓 看过这部电影就算当了一回巴黎夜旅人 致敬彻夜不眠后窗边的晨雾 音乐和香烟/甘斯布居然是英国人 真的很像法国美女
挣-
说实话，这部电影的音乐实在很加分，城市的空虚，落寞与相互依靠拯救的温暖
第一次是偶然，第二次是巧合，第三次是宿命。
