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.
“很多人认为欧洲的过去会是亚洲的未来，事情或许是，亚洲的过去才是亚洲的未来...”
我突然明白电影那让我觉得冗长乏味的前半段，就是我漫长的、想要逃离家庭的童年与青春期——像电影里一样——抗拒对话与沟通、假装不需要关心也不关心家人、漠然独自生活。
无厘头，被剪辑搞得有些摸不着头绪。剧情要表达的思想不多，宛如棉花糖，看似花团锦簇，实则入口空虚。
两块石头对话那也太酷了 导演的脑洞真是大的出奇 杨紫琼在这样的年纪能遇到这样一个角色 真是一个演员这辈子都梦寐以求的事
看了5天才看完，豆瓣推出负一星吧，只有负一星才能治疗我看这片尬出的内伤，脚趾抓地把家里的地板都抓坏了
香港武侠、功夫、三级、无厘头、王家卫、商业动作片大锅炖。（没点原生家庭伤痛都爽不到点上感觉
Jobu Tupaki牵着小猪出场那段把我迷住了，她就像汤浅政明的动画角色。
1.让人时而笑死又时而哭晕的电影。虽然收尾和落脚点有些简单俗套，但不得不说，只有通过电影或游戏媒介方能生成这种将丰足逼真的感官刺激与超绝出尘的灵性领会（相当于同时不断入世又频繁出世）相交融的极致体验。2.本质上是部哲学电影，除了存在主义，还可联系到莱布尼茨（“可能世界”或曰“最好的世界”理论）与尼采（伦理学意义上的”永恒轮回“假说及”超人“理想），最终其实还有佛教哲学——在这个角度上，尽管本片同[宇宙追缉令][无姓之人]等都属于多元宇宙电影，但更似[超体]。3.平行宇宙与超高速平行剪辑的冲击力、震撼感相得益彰，信息量极大。4.小概率的古怪举动，够无厘头。5.亚裔移民生活与代际问题同[青春变形记]，致敬[2001][花样年华][一代宗师]。6.Please, be kind. Especially when we don't know what's going on. （8.8/10）
Holy fxxking shit! This is THE movie for psychedelic generation. A live action version of rick and morty but with so much grounded emotions. And its so Chinese! An instant classic. Jennie lee curtis showed up with hotdog fingers!
不断地反转再反转让故事从充满谜团的硕大格局慢慢缩小至一个简单的家庭关系视角，快速且抽象交错与近乎疯狂的跳跃式剪辑节奏是本片最大的特色及优点，也可能是有史以来风格化最独特的一部另类电影，但是，但是，当导演过度得意洋洋如炫技般不考虑计量地重复制造视觉冲突，这一场看似内敛却缺乏逻辑的狂欢派对，像一个孩子刚懂得使用丰富的颜料却只会将整张纸不留缝隙地涂满拥挤的灵感一样，整部电影实际使人非常累非常窒息非常疲惫
太多插入行为和阳具的植入的让人很不能理解。香肠手的整个设定都像是为了将女同性恋的性行为做视觉视觉化隐喻而铺设。可是拜托？没有吊也不是不能做爱啊？平行宇宙、多维空间的跳接转换，主流和非主流的动画作品中已经尝试过太多次，并没有什么更有新意的表达以至于觉得浪费了短暂而宝贵的两小时休息时间….关于母女情谊，东亚母女间的牵连太深太深而作品展示的太浅，更令人伤心感动的语言交锋远远不是“这是她女朋友”“我会好好珍惜我们短暂的相处时间”就能表达出来的。诶…我也累了……
我舍友说，在另一个平行宇宙，郭敬明导演拿了五次戛纳大奖。
挺恶心的片儿，太苍白了，无法想象大家是怎么共情的。那两块石头连bgm都没有的片段是全片最佳，因为安静。
反复强调一下，本土华裔不是中国人，和国籍没关系，差异是身份和文化认同感。所以这类反映华裔的片子，我们看起来觉得无感、难受。
我找不出比“牛逼”更贴切的词儿来形容「妈的多元宇宙」这部电影了。过去几年大热的海外华裔题材电影，要么就是像国内肯德基里边卖的炸酱面，要么就像美国Panda Express里面的Orange Chicken，更有那种特别强调自己“融合菜”而非“中餐”的类型。
某种程度上我觉得这部电影可能会成为我心目中第一位的片子
这样的剧情真的会让有类似经历的我们产生极大的共鸣。
如果停止于石头宇宙可能就非常完美了，不管是情绪还是意图上都有那么一丢丢的哲思味，后面无休无止的爱与善良着实看得人上火，前面无论是创意还是痛感都落实的足够到位，其实脑洞还好，令人赞叹的还是拍摄，剪辑等各部门的完美配合，当然说到底这样的电影还是很难看到的，惊喜。
李安说杨紫琼作为一个家喻户晓的大明星，却很奇怪的没有演过一部以她为主的一番电影。怪不得杨紫琼在接到这个剧本时要爆哭一场，她真的能文能武，好饭不怕晚，本片也实现了口碑和票房双赢，真好啊，对2022年的中国观众来说，也是另一个平行宇宙的故事了
1.全体亚裔都是什么鸟语，听中文得看英文，中国人比美国人难受
