Love Songs (French: L'amour chante) is a 1930 French-German musical film directed by Robert Florey and starring Yolande Laffon, Piere Bertin and Janine Merrey.[1] A separate German-language film Rendezvous[2] and a Spanish version My Wife's Teacher were also released.
It "a musical comedy based on the humorous complications created by an adulterous young wife in the lives of everyone around her ."[3]
The film was shot in Germany because France was not equipped to produce talkie films of sufficient quality for musicals.[4][5]
The film's sets were designed by the art directors Marc Allégret[6] and Julius von Borsody.
