La historia del baile - Volver Tango (1998)
"La historia del baile" is an episode of the Volver Tango documentary series about the history of Argentine tango dancing. Using narration, interviews and performance footage, it follows the dance from the decline of the big popular dances of the 1940s, through its move from the dance floor to the stage, to the return of the milongas in the 1990s.

Decline and the move to the stage
The film's narration says the mass dances began losing their audiences toward the end of the 1950s. Around that time, it says, Juan Carlos Copes and María Nieves took tango from the dance floor to the stage and toured Latin America and the United States. A participant recalls performing on Broadway. Another interviewee describes the 1960s and 1970s as years when young Argentines largely stopped dancing tango.
Tango Argentino
The episode presents the stage show Tango Argentino, created by Claudio Segovia and Héctor Orezzoli, as a turning point. Participants recall its opening at the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris, a North American tour and a run on Broadway. Interviewees argue that the show made the dancer the star, where a dancing couple had once been an ornament to the orchestra. The film also gives a segment to Virulazo and his grounded style.

Revival of the milongas
According to the film, Miguel Ángel Soto and Milena Plebs studied with older milongueros, chiefly Antonio Todaro, to create their show Tango por Dos. The closing segments cover Carlos Saura's film Tango and the return of the milongas in the 1990s. Interviewees also debate whether codified teaching limits personal style, and regret the decline of the cabeceo.
