Once Marlene Dietrich achieved international stardom, there were any number of fast-buck distributors who tried to cash in on her fame by reissuing her pre-Blue Angel films. Originally released in 1929 as Iche kusse Ihre Hand, Madame, the late silent I Kiss Your Hand, Madame finally made it to the U.S. three years later, outfitted with a new music and sound-effects accompaniment. The story concerns the romance between a waiter (Harry Liedkte) and a zaftig socialite (Dietrich). At first the heroine spurns the waiter then falls in love with him -- just before discovering that he's a count in disguise. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
