Wer nimmt die Liebe ernst? - a 1931 film, music score by Wilhelm Grosz

Wer nimmt die Liebe ernst? (Who takes love seriously?) marks Wilhelm Grosz's first foray into motion picture music scoring. Completed in the spring of 1931, Grosz notes that three of the main songs from the film were separately published and licensed to Wiener Boheme Verlag (at the time under the management of Otto Hein) and scored both for piano and salon orchestra.

Wer nimmt die Liebe ernst? (Who takes love seriously?) was Wilhelm Grosz's first foray into motion picture composition. The film was directed by Erich Engel, written by Henry Koster and Curt Alexander, and starred Max Hansen, Jenny Jugo, Otto Wallburg, Willi Schur and Hedwig Wangel.
