Argentine Nights is a 1940 musical starring The Andrews Sisters. It was their first film.[1][2]
Plot
Three conmen go to Argentina to escape their creditors.
Production
The Ritz Brothers appeared in the film as part of a settlement with Universal following their non appearance in The Boys from Syracuse (1940).[3] The movie was meant to start production in May 1940, but the casting of the brothers meant the script had to be rewritten and shooting pushed back until 10 June.[4]
