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.
极具巧思的心理学电影。贾静雯演得好，把精神病人的那种一股洪荒之力随时喷涌而出的这么一种游离的状态拿捏得相当到位，平静柔弱的外表下面暗藏着毁灭一切的疯狂。
没想到是这么暗黑风格的蝙蝠侠，整体非常黑色电影风格，需要沉浸式进入，视听效果没得说，科特·柯本的《Something In The Way》听得鸡皮疙瘩都起了，多加一星给配乐！
蝙蝠侠是一个中世纪与近代相碰撞的错位主题，维持贵族阶级剥削秩序的文明骑士不断挫败下层人士的反抗，下层人士则被定格为近代社会以来带来破坏的癫狂，他们是不可理喻的疯狂、反社会人格、恐怖分子，心理或者肢体的病态，对现有敲骨吸髓的社会秩序具有破坏性的，是社会达尔文主义社会竞争的失败者，是马尔萨斯主义中多余的人，而双方的较量则是中世纪式的，在英国小镇哥谭上，全身铠甲的贵族与装疯卖傻的镇民在泥地里打滚的荒唐喜剧，不过这次的话语权是在贵族手中。
看时边百爪挠心边恐怖感，好像有被传递讯息但没理解什么。刘冠廷抓蛇和陈以文“你有没有考过驾照”最喜，哈哈
①成人之后，我们将犯什么错误？②我们会和自己达成谅解吗？③生活会越来越好吗？
赛琳娜竟然不是拉拉？没有爱情可以不加爱情线
新冠时期的电影，很现实也很温情，但陈以文一出来就破涕为笑，还有家乐福牛奶区打工的黄导…包容了数个社会问题，导演风格沉稳，镜头如旁观者娓娓道来，有几分是枝裕和的味道，人物之间情感关系拿捏到位，女儿过分懂事了55～可惜结尾设计得有些平淡，没有十足爆发力将之前的铺垫推向震慑人心的一刻，总体来说还是不错
作为身边有同样受精神症状困扰的人，看这样的片子显然无法和普通观众一样保持中立 影片本身节奏略有碎片感，但整体还是保持钟导的影调，只是不知为何今年钟导不太用中岛长雄身份进行拍摄了？
轰轰烈烈的瀑布的美，是水的重力造就的；生活的美好，是肩头的重量成全的。
比起前作《阳光普照》，其实个人反而会更喜欢这部《瀑布》的故事，看着设定过分完美的女儿帮助思觉失调的母亲“重振旗鼓”，没有感动是假的，但是整体格局和情感表达依旧是之前那一套，设计感过重，荒诞感更甚，无论是瀑布与阳光，还是蓝色幕布，人与人之间的关系被解构，接着被重塑，道理大家都懂嘛，也就在视听方面比较享受就是了。

疫情下的荒诞故事的确很适合用情节剧去表现，通篇温柔的光影和流水般的情感有女性主义的意象，加上母亲的主题仿佛在看台湾冷感版艾慕杜华的《论尽我阿妈》。“每个人都有难堪的过去，只是大小不同而已。”快要崩塌的结尾用刻意的反高潮给人一丝生的希望，对照台湾目前的防疫现实，有理由认同钟孟宏关于“你永远不知道明天和意外哪个先来”的悲观，因为海峡对岸和导演作为摄影指导的另一部作品《同学麦娜丝》的主演一样“吴铭添”。
疫情背景下伤痕，我们隔离人群远离病菌的传播，去获得生理健康，但带来副作用则是在狭小的房间中发霉，脆弱，敏感，癫狂，神经衰弱让人心力憔悴，心理健康献祭给了生理健康。瀑布的意象很好，但导演苦撑两小时，营造的惊悚悬疑感用力，精致的布局反而让人紧绷差了一口气。
没想到是这么暗黑风格的蝙蝠侠，整体非常黑色电影风格，需要沉浸式进入，视听效果没得说，科特·柯本的《Something In The Way》听得鸡皮疙瘩都起了，多加一星给配乐！
疫情blue，我感觉我也快熬不住了555555
当一切如瀑布倾泻而下，是一代代坚韧的女性让生命得以继续流淌。
导演赞扬了什么反映立场~~再明确不过了吧~~湾湾就这么大，社会议题为母题一直不断在拍和反思~值得鼓励啊~~关心具体的人~~无论怎样都是进步的~~~（不多说了~明早起来 我要去抱抱妈妈~）
大楼口罩
高于预期 恰好照进每日崩坏心境 小姑娘好灵
开头开得很好，母女情感的大反转，这在以往电影观影中倒是从没见到的！台湾这种叙事片颇有日式的徐缓的节奏特点，感情渲染也慢慢铺，相当不错。贾彻底从电视剧演员蜕变成专业娴熟的电影演员，非常不错！
