Synopsis by Hal Erickson

German singing stars Charlotte Anders and Walter Janssen head the cast in Nur Du (Only You). Janssen plays a composer of musical comedies, most of them vehicles for his talented actress sweetheart Anders. Our hero's life ends up turned around when he decides to compose nothing but grand operas from now on. He deserts Anders in favor of a wealthy patroness of the arts, who produces his first "masterpiece." But when Janssen's opera lays an egg, he comes to his senses and returns to Anders, just as she knew he would. It all sounds a lot like the Samuel Nathaniel Behrman Broadway comedy No Time for Comedy, which in 1932 was still several years in the future.
