Topper Returns

Starring: Young, Roland and Blondell, Joan

The third in the Topper comedy- mystery series, Cosmo (Roland Young) is besieged by a wisecracking ghost (Joan Blondell) who demands that he help her find her killer. The story is set in Carrington Hall, a magnificent old haunted house, complete with a cloaked villain who comes and goes through walls. Falling chandeliers, secret passages, and a trap door with a chute that leads to an underground tunnel adds to the mystery. The cast of characters includes a malevolent butler, a straightlaced housekeeper, a frightfully playful seal, the disappearing body of Joan Blondell, and Topper's chauffeur "Rochester" who is afraid of the invisible ghost's antics. Excellent special effects and outstanding performances by an all-star cast provides delightful entertainment.

Customer Reviews

Topper has a girl on his lap.

And his wife caught him. Besides revisiting your favorite characters, there is a pretty good murder mystery going. There is an old dark house with secret passages and secret people. In the middle of this is Topper. On top of Topper's lap, there is a girl who is not his wife. Ann Carrington (Carole Landis) is returning to her old family estate. Traveling there with her friend Gail Richards (Joan Blondell), we see the front end of a rifle, and soon the cab they are traveling in gets a flat tire at the most inconvenient location. This sets the tone, as later Gail gets ghostafied. So who did it and why? Gail, now a ghost, is determined to find out with the help of the only person who can see her, Cosmo Topper (Roland Young). There is a colorized version, but it will make you cross-eyed.
