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.
框架在那里，怎么填都可以，就看导演聪不聪明了，两位男主的互动简直怀疑是导演故意用来让观众忽视剧本bug的
如果非说张伯伦的决定为英法同盟争取来了一年的时间 我…？ / 双男主好帅 请让我偶遇paul的男演员吧
虽然明明知道结局，但是还是有被过程紧张到。如果不阻止他犯罪，等他犯罪的时候再阻止就太晚。如果成功阻止他犯罪，那又如何证明他原本会犯罪。这真是悖论。其实想一想，就跟因为有人有犯罪的倾向就提前把他抓起来或者提前杀掉是一个道理。
二战+英德+夏日回忆+牛津校友+外交官×翻译官重逢，对不起但这妥妥的是带英男同片配置啊，建议加上《莫里斯》《故园风雨后》组成二战爱情三部曲。（Ps.杰尼斯的帅气程度让我狂喜，欧美年轻一代演员终于有一个正经大帅哥了，流lui感慨，请给他多塞资源！）
很有英国味和凝重感的历史剧，尤其是张伯伦演得非常好。丘吉尔在回忆录里由衷地赞扬张伯伦是个仁慈古典派头的绅士，虽然他的努力只是延缓了一年战争。
分分钟感觉两个人都要热吻在一起，
通过两个小人物的角度展现慕尼黑协议签订前后英德双方的立场态度，可以作为一定的历史背景补充，有一定的剧作张力，但是不太满意最后电影对张伯伦谋略的反转刻画，就算不太了解历史的我都会觉得突兀和前后矛盾，就会对主创是否能正视历史产生疑问。
希望，是有人在为希望做准备，在努力。慕尼黑的边缘没有和平，只是都在为全面的战争做准备而已。
"I'd miss you.." "Good bye!"
“这太重要了……”
最后要哭出来了。thankyou thankyou thankyou
感谢张伯伦母亲生下如此英雄为二战盟军胜利奠定坚实基础…
啊屏息着等待和对方同时吐出来自消耗同一根香烟的白雾，好像两个人一起自渎憋着一起射啊…。
嗑拉了 这个卡司我太喜欢了 三人组也让我想起模仿游戏&故园🥲摄入更多二战知识很开心
张伯伦这个角色太具有争议性，典型的揣着明白装糊涂。不过不得不说这部电影里的希特勒和张伯伦演绎得都很有特色，把刻板印象里的两个人物似乎都推翻了去重建，并且效果甚好。
为张伯伦正名，慕尼黑协议被解释成为牺牲个人名誉换取备战时间的战略决定
我至今仍然记得初中历史课本里猛烈地抨击张伯伦，以至于一提到绥靖两个字，我首先想到的就是他挥舞着那张纸的样子，仿佛他才是那个反派。电影的结尾说张伯伦的做法让盟国有了充足的准备赢得战争，其实如何评价张伯伦，这个问题的答案并不重要，重要的是要有自己的思考，以及多角度看问题的意识。
历史总是惊人的相似，当紧张气氛弥漫在凌晨的夜空之上，真得分不清历史和现实哪一个更加贴近我的生活……
15-37英国《慕尼黑：战争边缘》
也是一种解读吧，都是政坛老油子的术语和演绎，你要利息人家要本金，看谁的眼头更高一些了…主角们到底在其中体现了什么价值这个逻辑太薄弱了
