What happens

The Love Waltz is a 1930 German English language musical film directed by Carl Winston and starring Lilian Harvey, Georg Alexander and John Batten. It is the English-language version of Waltz of Love (1930) which also starred Harvey. Following the introduction of sound films, a large number of multi-language versions (MLVs) were made by UFA to allow its films to reach the lucrative British and American markets. The film was produced by Erich Pommer who took an interest in MLVs. The film was part of a transitional stage in the development of MLVs as they moved from direct translations into more varied products tailored to individual markets. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
