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.
感觉拍的就是，对话的人数大于两人，就总会有人尴尬...至于嵌套啊自指啊这些我没啥兴趣，知道你们很恩爱了啦
充滿了力量，眼淚不停流。整體其實比較平，Brandi和Richard的那一場對峙全場最佳。堅持和妥協之間，無非就是忍耐和尊重。
因为从父亲的角度去展开叙述，所以父权确实占篇幅，电影的主题名字也是父亲嘛，所以可以理解为冠军的父亲也不失偏差，与儿女的矛盾，与商业的矛盾，与人种的矛盾，父亲面临的更生动，电影也展现得很全面，是一部中规中矩的片子了。
电影永远达不到纪录片的程度，这种片子看完了解一下故事背景就得了，同样的叙述方式，同样的故事结构的电影实在太多了。奥斯卡越来越走下坡路了。
培养运动员，还是在白人运动里面培养出黑人运动员，这种开创的行为影响很大，贫民窟里的世界冠军，一个家庭里面有这么个父亲至少规划很成功，但不是他一个人的功劳，这种家庭无法复制但影响深远，有思想还努力的运动员，值得称颂。
好看，有启发。成功学咋啦，为什么一定要表现小孩热爱网球？考清华北大的学生，需要表现他们热爱学习吗？不论出于什么原因，走到了世界第一的位置，且心理健康自信各方面都出色，家庭教育不值得肯定吗？电影主角明显就是爸爸，这个角色层次之丰富，尤其是面对黑人混混的隐忍，让人佩服。我就是喜欢爸爸的plan，因为他的设计和执行最大程度地保护了家人的利益，也不让家人讨厌。至于戏剧美化，hmm，毕竟我是看剧不是看事实。最喜欢问"Do u think I will win?"答"I know u will win."的笃定（Iu对换也一样）。大威的演员脸圆圆，太讨喜了。
优点：压迫感经由威尔史密斯的表演自然带出贯穿全片，真的倍儿害怕😱缺点：片尾曲的真实影像足够了，结尾的字幕显得为了政治正确说了一大堆务虚的意义，对不住这么扎实的故事原型。每个领域都有鸡娃之父，拍出来都会带滤镜，人嘴两张皮，如果要以这样极端的案例为榜样，也请选择适合自己家庭的程度。男主&女配均有一定竞争力。
三位天使投资人故事，父亲理查德、教练里克、以及 Nike。Nike 很聪明地在赛前 300 万美元押宝，结果被拒。赛后增加至 1500 万美元才签约。在投资体育明星方面，Nike 真有一套。
不管人物讨不讨喜，确实是真实呈现了世界级运动明星的一段侧写。虽然看完觉得真的是靠大小V姐妹无敌的天赋，让老爸再怎么霍霍也最终还是成功了。will smith值得小金人，完全本色出演toxic masculinity。让人思考他在Oscar上的表现是还没出戏，还是电影本身的延续 ：）
6.5分，虽然在观影过程中多次觉得爸爸很牛逼，确实牛逼。但是这样的父亲在现实生活中很极端，要么培育出天才要么逼成了傻子。故事来自真实生活，大小威的成名之父亲的故事，中规中矩。倒是多少感受到了，威尔拿奥斯卡挥的那一拳的力度。
有句刚句，作为传记电影，拍得还是可以的，电影里的夫妇和真实夫妇气质还满接近，不过要不是威尔斯密斯颁奖会上打了人，我还真不一定来看。看完感受就如同当年哈佛女孩的感受似的，其实，孩子的成功事后总结出很多，比如父亲的偏执、慈爱、对对手的尊重、对改善环境的强烈愿望，然而，这一切并不一定能早就威廉姆斯姐妹的成就，也许成就她们真正因素就是她们的天赋，而已，当年哈佛女孩、谷爱凌的成功也一样。想明白这个事，就不觉得这个父亲有多牛，也没觉得斯密斯那么配拿小金人。
了不起的爸爸和这两个女儿啊。好担心她输虽然输了但也是赢得了人生。黑人也是挺惨的。还好上帝派另外的恶人干掉了那个恶人，否则后果不堪设想。忍忍，不骄不躁。
韩国电影有奉俊昊，有朴赞郁，有姜帝圭，有可以和整个世界缱绻的风声和暴雨
AMC Hoffman Center | 同场的几乎都是黑人，威尔史密斯演的真好，大小威之间的sisterhood真的让人羡慕，最喜欢的是母亲在厨房的那段戏：如果不是两个女儿我早走了！（大概是这样。可见两姐妹的父亲有多爹味。
这不是励志影片而是成功学的宣传片，全片你看到的不是大小威的努力与拼搏，而是她们的父亲理查德满嘴跑火车，传销般的游说和洗脑网球教练，兜售他的成功学，“骗”他们给女儿免费教学。然而最后女儿们的成功似乎又与他的“控制”没有直接关系，给人的感觉是她们自己的天赋异禀与“迷之自信”才是关键。
柏林電影節。 努力秀恩愛的一部，也算是這對couple對當下生活狀態的自嘲（積極的）。不過，不知道洪尚秀是否真的在拍攝或者寫腳本的時候有那麼多念頭，看諸位寫的點評，估計導演自己都沒想到這片子能表達那麼多吧。名不副實，也理解不了為什麼能拿銀熊獎。
人物设置流于政治正确的表象，因此价值和印象变得稀薄、老旧、疲软，原型深度参与遮蔽了叙事的负面和复杂，父亲形象的塑造亦牺牲了大小威的主体性，父女关系和运动真实的呈现潦草。 #
4、比赛部分不够扣人心弦；
真是服了
由此可证，鼓励式育儿是对的，对小孩严格一点也是对的，努力学习更是对的！毕竟真的没有谁能随随便便成功啊～
