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.
也是小时候看过的，那会觉得狐狸精挺漂亮的。
普羅米修斯盜火種式的故事，包裹在充滿東方美學的京劇美術中，毫無違和感。只可惜現在拍不出來過不了審，最起碼寺廟的那段戲，就會被佛教協會叨逼叨。
意味很多
布里布里～布里布里～ 开心第一，开心的时候大概率不会互相伤害？其次我相信小新也从未放弃学习！完美的东西让AI去做吧，人类值得拥有不断“犯错”的青春～想起《贝克街的亡灵》，没记错的话里边要杀死精英后代，重构日本，悲伤调子；小新这次里边的侦探队像柯南的侦探小队，“犯人就是……”也很联动了～ 不过设定是反过来，是想让人人成为精英，整体开心。两者都涉及到AI科幻元素……但小新这个是给成人的童话 +科幻啊。不见得只有悲剧是“伟大”的。
反观现在的国产 甭提了 再加上某局搅和 真是一点进步没有
袁公被抓走时对蛋生说“你要好自为之啊”，在修复版看到片尾剧本文字描述场景:白云弥漫，天地苍苍。非常震撼，很正统的中国美。
下完了以后看了~非常好。
小时候一直觉得这个会有续集的，2021年终于看了4K版本的完整故事，也算是补全了一个缺憾吧。
看到10个爸爸那才忽然有点印象 音乐太赞啦
2021.11.6在电影院再次看到了4K修复版。音乐🎶好棒。每个人物造型都很有趣。最后一个画面（袁公被带走，蛋生不舍的呼喊师傅），电影院里一个小朋友，哭的哇哇的……说明电影真的好棒。
每每看到“上海美术电影制片厂出品”这几个字，往往只能哀叹今不如昔。
虽然是口号式的闪回，但是看的时候就一直一直哭……就是又很离谱，又很好看……
能看到制作团队对独特的民族风格动画的艺术追求，人物形象很生动，水墨场景很美，中国音乐和动画配合得也很好，但可能是受限于体制和时代环境，个人觉得故事和人物性格比较单薄。
小学时候看的了吧，具体忘了，就记得有一个断脚，一个女人，还有一个老女人。。。应该还有一个白衣服飘来飘去的老男人。。。
长大了看，很有那个时代的痕迹，普罗米修斯，而且小时候的印象没错，一种没完的感觉
就记得小时候看过，再一看，果然看过。美术很中国，故事也很中国，连那夸张的动作都很中国。再看的感受是，怎么会这么蠢呢？怎么会这样，怎么会那样，骗小孩差不多。一想，现实里难道不就是这样吗？现在不会有这种动画片了吧。
在电影院观看《天书奇谭》修复版的过程中，我脑海里不断冒出一句话：“请把我最爱的《大闹天宫》比照此标准进行修复！”【天河城飞扬】20211107
中国现在连一部像样的动画片都做不出来~像天书奇谈这样的动画片太珍贵了~
25年依然经典
想象力奇崛丰富，其中的一些情节甚至奇幻而且cult。小时候我并没有看过这句动画片，如今第一次看，只想说，童年看过这部电影的孩子，是幸福的，不说“童年阴影”，而是想起，自己对善良的信仰，与邪恶的抗争，让我们在此后的世间抵御乱神狂妖，让我们记得那些曾经付出过善意的伙伴们。
