One More Time is a 1970 American comedy film directed by Jerry Lewis[1] and starring Sammy Davis Jr. and Peter Lawford. It was filmed in 1969 and released in May, 1970 by United Artists. It is a sequel to the 1968 film Salt and Pepper.
Chris Pepper and Charlie Salt lose their nightclub and turn to Pepper's aristocratic twin brother for help. He refuses to help them, and is then found murdered. Pepper assumes his identity, and soon discovers that he was a diamond smuggler, and was murdered by his accomplices. Salt and Pepper band together to put the criminals behind bars.
One More Time is the only film that Jerry Lewis directed in which he did not star, although he does have a role as the off-screen voice of the bandleader.
The film was released on DVD on January 25, 2005.
Slightly before the release of the film, per the era's customary timing, a novelization of the screenplay was released by Popular Library. The author was Michael Avallone.
