I can't believe how much she and Edith Piaf look alike. Although, Piaf in 1937 was much younger and longer hair, but later in her career she looked just like this!
Thanks for this video. I didn't hope that some fragments of this move are still living. Paula Negri was the really european Top Star actress with so charismatic voice.
What a brilliant actress. Her instincts were amazing. Most actresses would have chosen, on seeing the man, to fumble the tempo. Negri is much more realistic -- she doesn't lose the tempo or forget the lyrics or anything lie that -- she simply becomes weak on a couple of notes -- what is happening is that character's throat is involuntarily tightening, making her voice almost crack before she recovers. Brava!!
Thank you Mr. ducdebrabant for your interesting and well observed impression, and thank you too my friend Jurek for your great knowledge of the live, films and music from this onforgetable great actress !
Barbara Apolonia Chalupiec (nombre mas polaco) que el de Pola Negri (nombre de fantasis puesto en Hollywood) fue una gran actriz en tiempos del cine mudo y no tenia la menor idea de la existencia de esta pelicula que hizo -de seguro-las delicias de mi madre cantante de opera y de mi padre-cantante de tangos,justo en 1937 ,cuando se casaron .Que delicia es ver esta pieza .
Dat er uit zo'n klein vrouwtje als Pola Negri (geboren als Barbara Apolonia Chalupiec) die rond de 1.50m groot was zo'n krachtig warm geluid kan komen.
Zoals ik elders al zei; een film-part om heel zuinig op te zijn.
Daniel my Dear, Now that we have had a passionate tango and thank you so much, you are a wonderful dancer, I must comment on this video. Grosse klasse! I love the whole scene, the sophistication and the innuendo in the visual. I want more.... Please...
Daniel Darling and you are a Darling for posting this, put on your white tie and tails and meet me in the club in the video and we will dance the tango to this sexy Tango Noturno. I will be wearing my red tango dress and my red satin ankle strap tango shoes. Please hurry, I am dying to tango!
Thank you for posting this!

I read that in Germany Negri is thought of as a singer. I the US people keep getting her confused with Theda Bara.

And Brava for you and your sensitive
reception - she WAS an actress.
We should not forget that the lyrics are
great expression of love in the moment
when appears a man to whom they are not adressed, yet the man not indifferent
to her...that weakening of the voice and faltering last note says so much...!

Dear Sir,
I don't speak Spanish, but I understood that you like Pola Negri, and you must be a Tango-lover.
