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.
开头很美，结局很“理想”，其实都是过客和当下罢了。
被法國人浪漫暈了⋯好喜歡這麼直白的坦率的愛著
印象最深刻是那本被弄丢的杜拉斯的书，初版，带有勾划、笔记和指甲印。
这部片的得分有点高，不过我并没有get到点，女性导演加蕾丝，应该是女性向吧，
阿娜伊斯没有爱情，只有自己。我很喜欢她和妈妈聊书那里，大意是你不必和我喜欢一样的书，c'est pas grave. 一部非常法国人的电影，关于自由浪漫和书籍。结尾用爱情冲破了恐惧，mais鹿晗怎么还是不坐飞机呢，c'est la vie.
太灵了！从第一个奔跑镜头开始就是一种毫不遮掩的轻盈感 i can see why它和worst person类似 但其实会更离地一点 which并不是坏事而是创造出了于我而言非常爱豆露的乌托邦energy（女主和电影in general都是）还有一些完全没预料到的opening night惊喜 为此也要bump到五星
整个片子融合了明面上的躁动不安与暗流涌动的激情。来自知识上位者的爱，回应着遥远的古希腊爱情观
电影里的男的都好像被异性恋思想掌控的呆瓜哈哈哈哈。anais横冲直撞，没有边界感地所求自己想要的，逃避现实不负责任，看着年轻但很独立，比如她会自己决定堕胎，会让发生完关系的男人睡沙发只因为她习惯一个人睡觉。我觉得女性要从“关系”的驯化中走出来，不要总把维持“关系”作为一种目标和束缚，很多感情只是感情，并非一定要是什么“关系”的开始。

好喜欢…. 有人对你说：这就是生活，这就是欲望，虽然有短暂的美好，但是…。她语速放缓，眼神真挚，一切又要这么结束了，她把这个夏日变成记忆里的珍珠，变成某种淙淙细流。然后你拉住她的手腕不断轻吻，我不同意。我不同意。
Mais elle est vraiment conne cette fille
No matter love or illusion, catch what you can grasp
21年新片里目前最喜欢的一部，是夏天的节奏，两个女主角通信的时候就像十九世纪的场景，非常暧昧热烈，在奥迪尔的壁画下面，在电影院的荧幕前，统统是灵魂的交缠。好喜欢最后Emily的挣扎，“你带着自由与勇气奔向了我。但那并不是爱，那是错觉。你对我有很多期待和想象。”这段太美了
法国女郎，黑发红唇，一袭红裙，沙滩阳光，激情洋溢，人美景美，剧情一般
海风微咸，舌尖品尝着阳光的灼热，红唇亲吻着沙滩，耳边听着浪花翻涌，爱欲发生在夏天。
3.5 這種散漫不羈的電影看了心情真好，最後那幕好啊。
她奔跑，不停地奔跑，不是为了追求，而是陷入匮乏。她享受丹尼尔“会为我发狂”的庸俗快感，也在赤裸的爱欲面前臣服，于是她自诩“了无牵挂”。作家说得没错，阿娜伊斯的匮乏最终都变成了索取，任何对新的关系形式的体认，都成为了她武装自己的“荣誉勋章”，她并没有真正爱上他人，她爱着的是自身的匮乏，是自身欲望朝向另一半的某种想象投射。她总是想逃脱某种符号化的男性暴力，但除了面对肉体和欲望，她似乎毫无办法——所以她害怕幽闭，害怕亲密关系的正常形式，她并没有直面匮乏本身。她是伊卡洛斯，最后的牵手和拥吻也许并不是圆满，而是阿娜伊斯在被日光烧灼之前最后的激情。遗憾的是，影片也在这样的匮乏中结束。
不得不说法国人是真的浪漫，拍出来的电影亦是如此。女主是奔跑的方式把自己以及观众带入故事的。一路上看到了阿娜伊斯生活中的各种不靠谱，但个人觉得这只是表面，其实她是在寻找真正的自己。总的来说电影还不错，很喜欢。
“你身上有种羞涩和大胆的美妙融合”不愧是法国人🥺！成熟姐姐太迷人了！
通过奥宗认识喜爱的两位 Anaïs Demoustier & Valeria Bruni Tedeschi 没想到会进入如此人物交织的一段夏日短情 奔跑的节奏比起室内长镜有活力 Emilie 的贴心在于不戳破 可惜结尾一碗大鸡汤还是太无语
