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.
無聊🥱科幻⋯法國人的看不懂⋯（劇中的剥鸡蛋的✌️不錯，想要一個）
看了十分钟，删了，就这种不明所以乱七八糟的玩意，注定法国电影永远斗不过美国。
饱和度高到眼睛疼的情景喜剧，剧情太拖拉了。
细致表现了集权是如何运作，污名受害者，压迫亲属，冒名顶罪，各种威逼利诱，造成恐惧蔓延，一切只为让真相不留痕迹。
科幻喜剧，不过没太惊艳，而且稍微长了点儿。现实中有机器佣人应该很好使吧。
剧情的构思很奇特，人工智能的反讽挺黑色，法国电影的幽默，也非常诡异精妙——但是合在一起，电影就拧巴的不能行。
终归大海。在多数情况下，是一个浪漫的名字；在日本语境里，有些许苦痛的味道；在这部电影中，则充满消极的情绪：一种难以反抗乃至只能归附的命数。
很棒的电影。想不到是波兰拍得。我们中国什么时候也能拍出这样的电影
想象力爆棚的人类自嘲反讽科幻喜剧：聪明反被聪明误，自以为是的团结，过家家似的互相残杀，满脑子的sex，只有最后留在房子里的四个人是真诚的。美中不足是运动机器人出场后、尤里克斯出场前的部分有点冗余且无趣，缩短片场到90min左右也许更恰到好处。
一开始还以为是爱死机真人版，但很快发现还是一出披着科幻外衣的法式théâtre
人物视角转换实在是没有达到预期效果，内容有点少，节奏实在是有问题，保持片长就要充实内容，要么就剪掉半小时。大海、原声带和动画的加成实在让我无法忍心给低分。
如果有所谓正剧这样一种类型片的话，那么这部片子几乎达到了所有对正剧该有的期望。但总感觉缺点什么。比如对组成Polizeistaat的普通个体的脸谱化，有控诉但少反思——警察诗人都是人，如果创作者能更悲悯地看到这一点或许会更好吧。Famous blue rain coat伴随着转折，she will never go clear.
用舞台剧一般的体例，冗长拖沓地讨论一些陈芝麻烂谷子的思想实验。如果是科幻迷，很多设定称得上熟悉到作呕。
8 · 12
不过说实话，片子一口气看下来还是会觉得有些累，感觉是想塞的东西有点太多了。当然如果不去想那么多也可以理解就是把法国人的日常嘴炮放到了一个人工智能的大环境下，毕竟就连anti-techno都是法国人恒久不变茶余饭后的话题。
法庭上，那句重复不断的证言显得如此有力，诉讼时效过去了，不代表事件就结束了
How hard to against it? The whole system and the crazy world. Think about something recently in my hometown, nothing new under the sun. I m always afraid we are almost there. Cold film colour, shamed reality story. I ran after fin and couldn’t help tears. I shouldn't be like that, but no idea to deal with my growing political anxiety.
再宽容也忍不住差评 烂到令人发指 令人无时无刻后悔观影所浪费的时间 靠滨边美波和百合隐喻的海报把人骗进来折磨 3倍速都嫌无聊 片子的每分每秒都狂喊着编、导无能
一个看似内向实际内心强大，一个看似开朗实际藏着不为人知的孤独，表面上是すみれ替真奈解围，可能更离不开对方的是すみれ吧，只是若有若无的情丝萌动最终消散于无言与误解产生的距离。也不能说是若有若无，すみれ的情感可能已深到海底，静待真奈深入大海，只是意外总是先于明了（而且为什么觉得自己没希望了就得立马找个男朋友？）。与海类似，摄像机也阐释了这种距离与深度，すみれ通过这一媒介构建起无需与他人直接交流的私人世界，真奈则从这一遗物中获得重新认知すみれ的记忆。
转场很突兀，突然就一黑屏，不流畅
