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.
4.吵什么女权的真的太恶心了，总说歧视女性，你拿着中世纪的十万八千里外的改编故事硬要套在整体男性身上，我也不知道自己曾做错过什么，走到哪都要被歧视，被鞭笞一番，好似我是个强奸犯，再不济也是个帮凶，即使我像男主一样上场厮杀，为女性呐喊，我也只是个为了满足自己高尚价值观的自我满足感的伪君子。
難看，看了個寂默，女權可以用別的方式呈現，用睡好友老婆的方式，真的太爛。
雷德利斯科特用自然光源还原了没有滤镜的中世纪——脏，恶心，野蛮，毫无英雄主义的浪漫可言。作为女性电影，故事本身的走向没有给玛格丽特带来丝毫正义，但三视角的结构给了男性最狠的讽刺与唾弃。
罗生门叙事方式演员是不是拍起来很省事，一组镜头多拍几个分镜就出来了。
太野蛮太残暴了，观影过程焦灼不安，还蛮痛苦的。
雷德利斯科特的罗生门叙事艺术。只有玛格丽特才是真相，尚德卡鲁日和贾克勒格里的真相都只是男性视角的谎言，愚昧忘我的自大，或麻痹自我的自信。这场无关乎正确和正义的决斗一度压的我喘不上气，不是为了场上两个以命相博的男人，为的是高台上束以脚拷的女人。迎接一个勇敢发声的女性的是时代的悲歌。
救命有生之年竟看到我喜欢的三个男演员一台戏。电影本身也好看！！！
前面两段太老套了，最后一段的叙事视角和决斗场面都很好。70
碰瓷罗生门，但出发点却完全的不同，虽然我是小透明但也不敢再说了……罗生门当年我给4星，这个本来想少1星，但想到老雷已经84岁了，再加上从电影本质来讲本片还是非常精彩的，那就还是给到4星吧
難看，看了個寂默，女權可以用別的方式呈現，用睡好友老婆的方式，真的太爛。
从《末代皇帝》，到《最后的武士》，再到这部《最后的决斗》，三十多年来，曾经辉煌一时的古装大制作慢慢如他片名的定语一般，渐渐且随时准备在电影题材里告别。小导演是没有资本碰的，大导演也在票房的叫好不叫座的反馈中，渐渐成为了绝唱。
在现如今这个时代，已经很难耐得住性子看完这罗生门式的叙事结构，而将这样一段平淡无奇的轶事拍的如此惊心动魄，除了小变态近乎完美的表演，就是这是一场关乎于人心和人性的拉扯。电影几乎终止于屹立在混乱肮脏的中世纪城市的巴黎圣母院，以及被操控的乌合之众，最后定格于金发的母子相视而笑。相较于男性和女性，我始终还是认为，对于全人类而言，女性比男性重要那么一点儿，而就品格而言，女性可比男性好太多。
导演、编剧、演员都很好。但比起黑泽明的《罗生门》，不那么轻盈，神秘。
近期最佳观影体验.朱迪科默美炸天了，比失控玩家里面还要好看！三个视角的对比体验太好，细节的改变画面传递的含义完全不同.看得好几次起鸡皮疙瘩.质感真的好.
那两个男人为什么决斗？公平？正义？尊严？荣誉？家人？真相？……很可惜，都不是。真相令人唏嘘，结尾令人感叹——无论古今还是中外，身为一个女人，真的好难！
武断的评价瓦解了对史料的构建-10/25/21 at AMC Garden State Plaza 16
一句话概括就是自古至今，No 都他妈 means No。片子挺好但希望导演们不要再让譬如马呆萌这样的核心美国人来演法国人了哈哈哈哈哈
2021最后一部
壮观的决斗画面，另外引起对中世纪司法制度的兴趣
虽然和《英雄》一模一样的三段结构（更早是《罗生门》）但细节填充得很漂亮，果然问题不在于重复，而在于怎样完善细节。
