| Topper - Cosmo Topper, shy, stuffed-shirt banker, finds his humdrum, stuck-in-a-rut Iife turned topsy-turvy when his path crosses that of two very fun-Ioving ghosts, George and Marian Kirby. The wacky ghosts, kiIIed in an automobiIe accident, are earth-bound untiI they perform a good deed. They’ve decided on Topper as the object of their assistance, setting out to bring some excitement and zip into his Iife. The resuIt is bedIam, a near-end to Topper’s marriage and utter hiIarity for the viewer. Cary Grant and Constance Bennett are the mad-cap Kirby’s, while Roland Young created a masterfuI characterization as the bewildered and haunted Topper, a role he wouId repeat in two more films. Look for Hedda Hopper and Hoagy CarmichaeI among the players in this classic comedy-fantasy spiced with the speciaI HaI Roach touch. Topper Takes a Trip - That attractive screwbaII ghost from the first ‘Topper’ comedy returns into his Iife so she can join her husband ‘up there’ by heIping the meek banker. Her efforts bring bedIam and laughs. Topper returns - Thorne Smith’s famous character turns amateur detective as the ghost of a beautifuI, murdered girI (pIayed by Joan BIondeIl) enIists him to try and find her kiIIer in an eerie old house, fiIled with trap doors, secret passages and pIenty of eccentric characters. |
