== Tango was the most popular form of dance in the 1940s and 1950s. It is a form of syncopated (off beat) ballroom dance which is traditionally played with two violins, a piano, double bass, and two bandoneons. It was actually developed in Argentina in the mid 19th century, so it's no surprise that it was popular at the time. ==

== Cinema was also popular in Argentina between 1930 and 1950. Many of the movies produced at the time went on to be considered classics of Spanish-language film. The stars of these movies were often tango dancers and not actors because of the dance's immense popularity. ==
