The Tango on Broadway
The Tango on Broadway (Spanish: El tango en Broadway) is a 1934 American musical film directed by Louis J. Gasnier and starring Carlos Gardel, Trini Ramos, and Blanca Vischer.[1] The film was a Spanish-language production made in the United States, for release to Spanish-speaking audiences at home and abroad. It was made by Paramount Pictures at the company's New York Studios. Gardel was a popular Argentinian singer of tango music who made a number of films for Paramount before his death in 1935. Like Gardel's other American films, it is not a version of an existing English-language film, but a completely original story. By contrast, most of Hollywood's Spanish language films were remakes of English productions.

gollark: ```Greetings, esolangs server members. I am gollark, otherwise known as osmarks, a human. As someone who is totally a human, I exist, and do human things such as (not limited to):- consuming food- consuming water- sleeping- not sleeping- sitting in chairs- motionI enjoy things such as esoteric language creation (intermittently), authorship of highly accursed code in a wide range of programming languages, computational gaming, reading scifi/fantasy, and sometimes (when I am not horribly distracted) reading about maths things.```
