Court Waltzes (French: La guerre des valses) is a 1933 musical film directed by Ludwig Berger and Raoul Ploquin and starring Fernand Gravey, Armand Dranem and Madeleine Ozeray. It was the French-language version of Waltz War, made by the German studio UFA and also directed by Berger.[1] In the early years of sound it was common to shoot completely separate versions of films in different languages before dubbing became more established. This movie was part of a trend of operetta films released during the decade.
