Topper (1937)

Playful comedy from the Hal Roach Studios starring Cary Grant and Constance Bennett as Mr. & Mrs. Kirby, a wealthy carefree couple that meet an unfortunate end after getting into a car accident. They don't know what to do with themselves (they don't seem to be moving on to the afterlife), so Mrs. Kirby decides that they need to do some good deeds. They take it upon themselves to show their cloistered banker friend, Mr. Cosmo Topper (Roland Young), how to have fun and live the good life.

This was the first of several sequels that also starred Roland Young and Billie Burke (as Mrs. Topper). There was also a television series in the early 1950s.
