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.
节奏乱，故事东扯西扯没有围绕核心走。妈妈全是为了一家人，自己的教师事业，甚至结婚前的研究所历史匆匆被提及，买椟还珠结尾说什么这是我的选择，你（女儿）可以做你自己。这意思不就是让当妈的甘愿牺牲吗？唯一一点我觉得有些突出的两点是给女儿营造的小三人设，母亲体谅她的寂寞，并非责难她。母亲和弟弟的关系没建立起来，除夕那里太尬了，直接硬升华。
很好哭，但是不喜欢电影宣扬的这种妈妈，为了别人牺牲一辈子
槽多无口。
这是妈妈去世一年后，我第一次敢看温情片，泪点一波又一波，电影与回忆重合率极高，母女矛盾收尾很自然。后半段影厅大家都在认真地吸鼻子，同一排尽头坐了一个阿姨，她是不是也在想妈妈？“可是我等不了了”是最泪崩的一句话了，成长总在痛彻心扉悔不当初时。这部电影是给经历过的人疗愈看的，有用，谢谢。
没看的时候好奇，看完卧草，腹黑疯批恋上我。妹纸玩火很大。美雪过分的温柔。

徐帆刻画出了一个大部分人都能想象出来的妈妈形象，但这种形象恰恰又不是大部分人期望的，慈母下的孩子始终长不大，始终也过不好自己的人生!
一星半
本来因为吴彦姝老师康康的，结果刚好开演前岛屿心情巡演开预售票，没抢到，有点没太看进去。有几个小设计还可以，但是这个家庭类型加癌症题材可以与《小伟》《送你一朵小红花》对标，癌症题材这两年还挺多，《小伟》还是目前最不错的。
演技也没风评得那么不好吧，演员都挺自然的，当然许亚军演的父亲确实要更高一筹。电影输出的观念也挺正向的，且不强硬。你说强行催泪，讲述母亲离别的主题，哪有不催泪的。
三人之间的爱情或许都不只有爱，但最终是个好结局，美雪的包容和真诚让人感动
为题材加一分。这种主题就是奔着让你哭去的吧？确实也哭了，比较适合带妈妈去看。无论如何，希望能看到更多以中年、老年女性为题材的影视作品。
〖点映〗对于母女之间的感情刻画，真实得可怕，直接让我代入小美。虽然情绪能让人信服，但总感觉别扭。
看到女主知三当三，我就劝退了，真的，正常家庭出来，三观不拐弯的人一般都受不了知三当三，别杠 杠你就是三
还去不了南极的“伯纳黛特”。
没有大哭，不停小哭。关于母亲，其实无需多言！
一个有原著的东西拍成这样……如果不是因为外国好影视剧的中国化这件事情还有些意义，它一定是一星
我不理解，两个小时硬撑着看完，还是崩溃，三个人之间一对都没磕到
啊啊啊啊啊啊西八，3颗星给第二段床戏，女一真的像有那个大病
母亲大概是所有人的痛点，无论你拥有怎样的母亲，一旦失去了，都是会痛苦的，她是我们来到这世上最初的联结，失去母亲是所有人的内在恐惧。
