En a Luz de una Estrella (By the Light of the Stars) serves as a showcase for stellar Latin American tango singer (and future director) Hugo Del Carril. The star plays a sexy cabaret singer with a predilection for loving neither wisely nor well. When he falls for a married woman, he ends up being shot full of holes by a jealous husband. The rest of the film details Del Carril's miraculous comeback -- both professional and personal -- from the brink of death. Alas, tragedy continues to loom large in Del Carril's life when a starstruck chorus girl takes his harmless flirtations all too seriously. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
