Synopsis by Hal Erickson
This sequel to the popular ethnic comedy Potash and Perlmutter finds Jewish entrepreneurs Abe Potash (George Sidney) and Mawruss Perlmutter (Alexander Carr) joining forces in a used-car business. After another of their famous squabbles, Abe and Mawruss break up the partnership, whereupon gullible Abe falls into the hands of a pair of slick con artists. On the verge of being thrown in jail, Abe is rescued by Mawruss, who spirits his pal off to Canada by air. Our heroes are both vindicated at the end, permitting them to live scrappily ever after. Like its predecessor, Partners Again was based on a stage comedy by Montagu Glass and Jules Eckert Goodman.
