Kenneth Bixby (Warren William) is an author famous for writing cheesy romance novels with titles like ''Purple Passion''. He and his hypercompetent secretary Anne (Creator/JoanBlondell) are on a cross-country tour promoting his latest book. In Cleveland, he is surprised to be greeted by one Julie Wilson. It seems that years ago Julie and Kenneth had a fling. He's completely forgotten about her, but she has this idea that she was the love of his life. Kenneth can still barely remember even after Julie reminds him, but she's hot, so they have another fling before he leaves town.

''Goodbye Again'' is a 1933 comedy film directed by Creator/MichaelCurtiz.
Kenneth Bixby (Warren William) is an author famous for writing cheesy romance novels with titles like ''Purple Passion''. He and his hypercompetent secretary Anne (Creator/JoanBlondell) are on a cross-country tour promoting his latest book. In Cleveland, he is surprised to be greeted by one Julie Wilson. It seems that years ago Julie and Kenneth had a fling. He's completely forgotten about her, but she has this idea that she was the love of his life. Kenneth can still barely remember even after Julie reminds him, but she's hot, so they have another fling before he leaves town.
Kenneth thought he'd get laid and then proceed to Albany, but he is unpleasantly surprised when Julie follows. He's even more unpleasantly surprised when Julie's self-righteous sister Elizabeth and Elizabeth's smarmy prig husband Arthur follow in Julie's wake. And if that's not bad enough, they also bring along Julie's mild-mannered husband Herbert, the whole party following Kenneth and Anne to Albany for an unpleasant confrontation.

!!Tropes:
* CampGay: A random gag typical of UsefulNotes/ThePreCodeEra has the bellboy at Kenneth's hotel coded as gay. He has an effeminate manner, he talks with a lisp, and he appears to be the only man in the world who reads Kenneth's romance novels. He's a fan who asks for and gets an autograph.
* GilliganCut: As Herbert's leaving for work Julie spots food on his tie. She's been rhapsodizing about Kenneth Bixby all morning, leading Herbert to roll his eyes and say that there's no way Kenneth Bixby would ever get food on his tie. Julie says "Certainly not! Kenneth Bixby is much too refined!" Cut to Kenneth, in his hotel bathroom, scratching his butt and gargling.
* NoDoubtTheYearsHaveChangedMe: When Kenneth is slow on the uptake at their first meeting, Julie cheerfully asks "Have I changed so much?" She doesn't get that it's not that he doesn't recognize her, it's that he's forgotten her completely.
* RomanceNovel: What Kenneth writes, with titles like ''Ecstasy'', ''The Boudoir Cloister'', ''A Saint in Scarlet'', and ''Purple Passion''. Kenneth is said to be "the man who understands women,", and while he definitely doesn't, they definitely like his books.
* VideoCredits: Of all the main players at the start of the film, as was house style for Warner Brothers in the early 1930s.
