TOPPER (1937)
Fun-loving couple George (Cary Grant) and Marion (Constance Bennett) live a carefree life of merrymaking, but when they wind up dead after a car crash, they don't quite make it to heaven. Stuck on earth until they can perform at least one good deed, they decide to help their high-strung former boss, Cosmo Topper (Roland Young). They coax him to loosen up by doing a little drinking, dancing and flirting, but all the fun lands him in jail, to the shock and embarrassment of his wife Clara (Billie Burke), who may have to embrace the wild side herself if she doesn't want to lose her husband. Grant and Bennet shine as the daring duo at the center of this fantastical comedy produced by Hal Roach. DIR Norman Z. McLeod; SCR Eric Hatch, Jack Jevne, Eddie Moran; PROD Hal Roach.
