- In this sequel to The Jolson Story, we pick up the singer's career just as he has returned to the stage after a premature retirement. But his wife has left him and the appeal of the spotlight isn't what it used to be. This time Jolson trades in the stage for life in the fast lane: women, horses, travel. It takes the death of Moma Yoelson and World War II to bring Jolson back to earth - and to the stage. Once again teamed with manager Steve Martin, Jolson travels the world entertaining troops everywhere from Alaska to Africa. When he finally collapses from exhaustion it takes young, pretty nurse Ellen Clark to show him there's more to life than "just rushing around".

Larry Parks deserved the Academy award for his performance as Al Jolson. I still watch him often.
I liked Larry parks to such a shame I’m 92 and I love to listen
I saw this movie first run at the New Misson theatre in San Francisco when I was 15 years old
jolson story and jolson sings again are my best fav films off all time
Parks should have won an Oscar for for the 1st Jolson movie: The Jolson Story,
love this movie larry does a great job
He did what he loved! We should all do what we love! He was a strong man who had a voice that intertained the world. He is one of the greatest singers that ever happened! Now he's an immortal. Judy Herrera
I can Listen to Al Johnson all day. His voice is enchanting. So full, so strong and so heavy. His songs are all Beautiful and he sings them Passionately, but The Way He sings MUMMY is an Exception.
You're not a Variety reporter, are you?
Thanks for the memories !
A true musician 👍
How could you not love a forever brill film ❤
I found out, Jolson really wanted this sequel to be made
I love Jolson and sings he sings Larry parks too
Al Jolson and Larry Parks eternal .
I'll nevrr stop seeing this 2 picturesv
Please bring it back for tv viewing…….
Didn't finish, Jolson wanted the second movie to show that he finally became happily married to Erle, at long last.
Larry Parks, and Al Jolson ***were*** my childhood, since I was seven, or eight, and, thankfully, I haven't grown up. Thank you for sharing part 2 of his "bio", my friend! :)
I LIKE THE JOLSON story but like the second movie more
This is the "best" singing/dubbing in a picture (using a non-singer) i've ever seen.
I never knew the man but he was a great singer they're the songs I was brought up with because I had no money for my own so I listen to Mom and Dad's wish she was still around
I'm so happy that you've uploaded this film too!
Larry Parks & the others, did an amazing job in both films.
Why would she say that it’s selfish she could have listened to him sing I listen to him everyday sometimes for hours love him and his songs
Larry Park, un genio 💕🌸🇦🇷
I want to heard the voices !!!
Stay share music and marriage nothing us better
Hello warror135, here is hoping that you are having a nice Fourth of July weekend (2020) for the most part. I am trying to remember why Larry Parks lost his movie career thanks to dear McCarthy.
I got both movies on DVD
Good looking with white or black face, talent
Tam jolson from Scotland he's like him x
💕🌷🎶Al Joson ele contava e encacantava ...🎶🌷💋💕
the whole world complaining about the Dutch Black Piet, and this is okay? GFYS
¿cuantos años han pasado? y sin embargo sigo mirando sus dos peliculas y me emociono como si lo viera por primera vez, eso es por la magnifica actuacion de Larry Parks y la voz inigualable de AL JOLSON. magnifico haberlos interactuado. SON MAGNIFICOS
That was entirely uncalled for.
Larry Parks did his best work as Jolson in both movies. He would practice hours on end to get the gestures and mannerisms right. Little know fact is that Parks should have gotten the Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role, but a guy named McCarthy put Parks on the list of Communist in Hollywood.
Jolson initially wanted to portray himself in The Jolson Story; the Studio convinced him that he wouldn't be credible as the young singer in his 20s. Parks was cast as Jolson and, as indicated, was nominated for a Best Actor Oscar, and lost to Frederic March for Wyler's The Best Years Of Our Lives; his other competition was Laurence Olivier. After the release of Jolson Sings Again, Parks appeared before the HUAC, and acknowledged a brief membership in the Communist Party in the 30s; he had since repudiated the Party and he was compelled to "name names" in an effort to salvage his film career. He never worked in movies or TV until John Huston cast him in a pivotal supporting role opposite Montgomery Clift in Freud in 1962.
And I'm sorry for that!
Why is is so sped up? Ruins it.
Jolson was wonderful, but he was a product of the 1920's and by the late 40's, the overarranged, big band music just doesn't conjure up any of the 20's feel or sound--the in those years the wardrobists didn't give a single concession to 20's styles, it might as well have been 1949.
