In 1937 Printemps had another great success in musical comedy with Oscar Straus's "Drei Waltzer", given in French as "Trois valses". She and Fresnay starred in the piece on the Parisian stage and on film ("Les trois valses"). The critic Richard Traubner commented in 2006 that because of the performances of Printemps and Fresnay the film still "hangs over anyone who dares revive the operetta on stage". In 1946 Printemps had another hit in Marcel Achard's "Auprès de ma blonde". In 1950 she appeared as Hortense Schneider with Fresnay as Jacques Offenbach, in Achard's film "La Valse de Paris". She continued to perform on stage until she was well into her sixties, and remained active with Fresnay, co-directing the Théâtre de la Michodière in Paris with him until his death in 1975.
