About A Tango for You
Jimmy Bolt, a singer and dancer (and occasionally as a waiter) works at a varieté. The man may be talented, but he’s not exactly a big success, and things get complicated when a young orphan girl falls in love with the voice of another singer but then mistakes Bolt for him…
Directed by Géza von Bolváry, A Tango for You leans on a strong ensemble — Willi Forst, Fee Malten, Oskar Karlweis — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1930.
