Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Ein Tango fuer Dich (A Tango For You) is the story of two jazz singers. Maxim (Paul Otto) is rich and famous; Jimmy (Willy Forst) is neither. Eventually, the status of the two heroes is reversed, but not before both have fallen in love with dancer Mady Smith (Fee Matten). When all is said and done, however, the plots never really mattered in these early-talkie operettas; if there were plenty of singers and dancers and plenty of songs and dance, the audience went home happy. American critics seemed delighted that director Geza Von Bolvary emulated Hollywood filmmaking techniques while putting together Ein Tango fuer Dich.
