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.
EP.15-21 《那田蜘蛛山篇》
剧本第二部分是不是写的有问题？强奸者在这段叙述里其实已经承认了罪行（假以爱的名义对受害人实施了强奸、并警告其闭嘴），虽然后来他又采纳了旁人的指点，一再否认、坚持否认，但观众已经看到了真相，这导致第三部分（真相还原的部分）戏剧性大大降低。还有一个不令人满足的地方是，女主角坚持要说出真相的动机，这个最能体现故事当代性以及人物魅力的的东西，交代地很不充分。结尾不错，一个虚假的胜利，够冷。
村上春树在《海边的卡夫卡》里说过：“暴风雨结束后，你不会记得自己是怎样活下来的，你甚至不确定暴风雨真的结束了。但有一件事是确定的，当你穿过了暴风雨，你早已不再是原来那个人。”
除了空间感建立太弱，完成度很高了
让我们看看本马达二十多年后会不会再次一起站在最佳改编剧本的领奖台上
是佛龛，是教堂彩绘玻璃，是长卷。是过去的电影，是现在的电影，是未来的电影。
三段不同视角的叙事，虽有差异，但都有些流水账，张力不足。最后的高潮成功将张力牵到最大——因为两位男性的血腥厮杀，只关乎自己的利益与荣耀，和真相无关，和那个女人无关，但她却又只能为这场荒唐的决斗，赌上自己的性命和未来。何其讽刺，何其悲哀……
#SGIFF#风格绮丽，几组长镜头和诗歌的运用恰到好处，☯︎交替的转换也颇有创意，阴间也和阳间一样。时代浮沉下小人物的命运能被拍得如此魔幻现实，真的很难得。 如果说缺点的话，就是时长太久了，叙事的话用诗歌作为间隔也显得取巧了。
前兩段兩星，第三段四星。忍受一大半走過場般沉悶的男角色戲份（casting了Matt Damon和Adam Driver，只是為了讓大家能堅持看完前半部），和每場戲交行貨一般的導演處理，終於在第三段進入了戲眼，連場面處理和表演都細緻了起來。Ridley Scott聰明地知道議題的重點在女性角色，但不代表他對兩個男角色的處理可以如此簡單粗暴。
鬼舞shi无惨。为啥这里面人名都这么难念？tv6-10合集
由于影片还挺长，所以需要一定的耐心才能看完。首先形式上的新奇之处就不多做评价，觉得最神之处是驼背用照相机看来看去和结尾人人在喝孟婆汤忘却往生。- Filmfest München 25.06.2022
剧本，配乐，演员的表演都精彩，几乎没有不好的表演，主角，店小二，邱福新的童年小孩，都太棒了。有两个不满意的地方，一个是文革那段的镜头和表演有点太“影视剧”，一个是导演的两次出场。特别是结尾出场可能对导演的身份来说很重要，但是有点破坏影片余韵，毕竟邱福新才是真正的主角，那些可能遗忘或者被遗忘的人才是主角。
#BIFF2021 电影时长三小时，个人对这种叙事很宏伟的电影不太感冒，但有几个镜头如剧照一般的确很惊艳
法国罗生门，中世纪#MeToo，史诗片下的女性视角。
Tv6-10，炭治郎找到了无惨；珠世给炭治郎的希望：让鬼变回人的方法是有的！炭治郎和妹妹大战双鬼（箭头+皮球）
在影片的结尾部分，留给观众的，唯一担之不去的问题是五福是否会喝下孟婆汤，这将抹去他前世的记忆，为转世投胎做准备。
形式做到满了，非常非常有诚意。然而坐在今日的时代，确实难言这是我最今年喜欢的电影，说是文艺片但表达逻辑却是商业的。我大概期望看到跟个体有关的，最直接的电影。似乎在写人，其实却是在写戏。
從人物關係至情節，完全從現代語境出發。套上中世紀的時代外殼，會在賣相上具備史詩氣質，追溯到《角鬥士》，不也就貼合雷老已修行到頂流的類型片經驗。
实大失所望，经典女性题材电影，跟热点赚尽口碑，罗生门式的叙述女闺蜜的告密岳母的自白和恶心中世纪法庭的宗教审问更是惊起一片巨涛，但在盛行宫廷之爱的中世纪政治婚姻的冷漠其实不论男女都心知肚明，谁又不是互相利用和相互附庸，作为战争资源为最价值的冷兵器时代自然是男性权利的鼎盛，但女主最大原罪绝不是性别而是没有强硬家族后台反之男性也可能没权利，这便是本片致命漏洞偷梁换柱，只是以中古之名行输出意识形态之实并没有深入到时代问题还不如老实拍个现代题材，本以为还会深入探讨人性但都戛然而止实令人遗憾，且角色太过脸谱根本没啥深挖价值，亚当本在星战时就觉难堪大任，结果本片还是万人迷故作忧郁的演技更是令人不快，虽雷的服道化依然精彩，但尤其片尾夫死妇荣的挑拨之词真是其心可诛，假意奉迎也不过是利用话题消费女性利己而已。
像是一场盛大的舞台剧，片中有川剧舞台，并多处运用了微型diorama。当小丘福像童年伊万一样在空中飞翔，看似天际的幕布被划出了一条裂缝，小丘福也从楚门幻境回到了现实。困在自己亲手修建的猪公馆里、喝医用酒精消愁、把粪蛆烤熟、磨碎用来喂养捡来的弃婴。从抗日战争、内战、文革到大跃进，故事走向在意料之中（参《霸王别姬》后半段）却总有惊人的影像处理。影片中三次（？）长桌吃饭的众生相，镜头从左至右依次滑过：老传习社、人民川剧团和酆都鬼蜮。仿佛此时的镜头就是驼儿手里的老式黑白照相机，《椒麻堂会》就是那张未拍下的照片。七月十六日安远路189号，方坛。
