May 12, 2004Ghost Screwball Comedy
Deliriously frothy screwball comedy with Cary Grant and Constance Bennett as to socialites killed in a crash who then haunt the car's new owner. Several sequels followed.
Topper Returns (1941)
Sep 11, 2013Ghost Screwball Comedy
Second sequel to Topper , the screwball light fantasy comedy about a dull man who is driven crazy by ghosts only he can see. This throws everything into an Old Dark House setting but proves there is still a good deal of droll, nonsensical humour to be found in the formula
And Then There Were None (1945)
