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.
原作好像拿过普利策，但是电影是真没拍出来文学感，一个小男孩的成长，配上七八十年代的音乐，除了他舅舅，没觉得酒吧里的其他人对他有什么影响，就上大学那段有共鸣，那是全家都最欢乐的时候，仅此而已
比预想的要好些 故事的完成度也还可以 摄影画面加分
故事清晰完整，没啥出彩的设计，但也没恶心人，男女主和哥演的都不错，看完挺舒心的，雷神没让我太失望，加半个星，但让我花50多块钱去看，我还是觉得有点亏，扣半个星。
属于国产小成本电影对悬念类型的一次开拓性尝试。人物塑造上上很中国化，情节设计上环环相扣，虽有一些逻辑上的漏洞，但细节缺失属于国产电影的通病，因此不想因此指责导演或制片方。最后，真心希望我国能在电影审查上能够再宽松一些，给我们的电影工作者营造一个自由度更高的发挥空间，
我在用自己不断验证——人的喜欢不会改变，看《草之韵》到一半，感觉和《你的鸟儿会唱歌》好像好像。人们漂浮在函馆上，用各种方式运动，飞行滑翔奔跑匍匐着。
一级棒！
这种题材应该支持。我不想都是些爱情片儿童片主旋律片和喜剧片
老实说还可以，不过还是有一堆逻辑不自恰。有彗星来的那一晚和恐怖游轮那味了，基本融合的还行
#22#12扔车钥匙那下太帅了吧…男人的默契，鼻子酸了。小鲜肉们一眼演技不行的问题好莱坞也一样，大本和一群酒吧大叔的演技看着太舒服了…歌很好听…至少两首大爱
看到了自己，仿佛再往哪里踏一步，就会成为的样子
「学习不好也没事。把理所当然的事当作快乐的事来对待，这样就够了。我希望他能成为那种在平凡小事上感到幸福的人。」
这种难以在故事上吸引人的电影，要想让人专心看下去，并且看完后还能高高兴兴打四星，那只能说明这部电影在其他方面格外吸引人。
聴こえてくる――静まらない心の震えが；心の震えを感じながら 僕たちは、駆けだそうとしている
挺平淡的故事，就是结尾给我有点突然的感觉..
当一个人落入属于自己的困境的时候，哪怕是身边无微不至的爱，也不能拯救他；就像那根两人合力搬运的树干，最后也无法成为那个孤独少年的浮木。
救命，老乔，收手吧！什么时候才能认清自己真的不适合导电影！！！
体育老师打算去西班牙旅行
怎么说呢？不是豆瓣网友，不是编剧雷神的粉丝，没研究过平行空间，不懂祖父悖论，可能会看不懂，土猛土猛的！
还行吧，平行宇宙瑞克和莫蒂都讨论烂了的话题，国产第一次见。有限宇宙，一切皆无意义；无限宇宙，无限可能。啊、啊、啊、啊、啊、啊、啊～
老实说还可以，不过还是有一堆逻辑不自恰。有彗星来的那一晚和恐怖游轮那味了，基本融合的还行
