Director: Roy Del Ruth
A sassy girl finds herself dead after trading bedrooms with her heiress friend. Her ghost seeks aid from banker Cosmo Topper to find out why and by whom. - Фільми й анімація
What a great movie. A talented cast for a ghostly who-done-it with the ever so humble Roland Young involved with another ghost in Joan Blondell. Add my favorite "Good Witch of the North" Billie Burke, the best black actor of that period in Eddie "Rochester" Anderson and a missing body and it all added up to one superb black and white movie that was fun to watch. Thanks for the download. Joe S
Love these classic movies no matter how many years ago still fun to watch. Thank you
Great movie, Joan Blondell's career spanned several decades, but she never failed to deliver!! 👍👍
Still loving this movie in October 2023
I must've seen this at least ten times since I first watched it on TV as a child in the '50s, but it's still just as hilarious as ever. Brilliant screenplay, brilliant acting by everyone, beautiful special effects, great directing! Billy Burke can make me laugh by simply calling out 'Topper', as she does when she spies him sitting in the freezer, but all the actors here were perfect. Thank you!
Emily do you know how to drive.? No ma'am . MRS TOPPER GIGGLES ISN'T THIS EXCITING?!
Pppppp
i agree, i have seen all the Topper films many times, since the sixties thanks to my dear mom. hollywood today cant hold a candle to these brilliant films 🥂
I Love this as well, it's brilliantly funny, what you said sums it up perfectly
😊❤
I have seen this movie several times because it’s the best topper movie they made. Billie Burke is so funny and so good in this movie! The complete cast is absolutely brilliant.
I do love the first Topper, but Billie Burke really shines in this one.
I ended up buying DVDs of all three Topper movies. I never saw this one until I watched it on my Smart TV last evening. Absolutely loved it!
Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you.
Where can we find the second Topper film?
NO, who is watching in oct 2023.
I love these movies, i used to watch them with my grandparents when i was 5.
2024. Now for me. Lov em.
One of the greatest movies ever. Brilliantly funny. Carol Landis was stunning!
Thanks for posting. Topper has been one of my all time favorites since I was a child and with the addition of Rochester you can't go wrong
This is gorgeous! Has anyone else seen "I married a witch" which also played around with very good special effects and was fun. Such a pity films like this aren't made any more.
Yes, that was a fun film.
Just saw it last night!
Nope. I haven't seen that one.
Ahhhh Ms Lake
Loved that movie. Veronica Lake was a crackerjack in it. Would really like to see more movies like that.
Thorne Smith, who dreamed up the "Topper" stories, worked for an ancient New York City advertising agency. Many many years later I worked for the same ad agency -- and occupied the same desk used by Thorne Smith! (No -- no evidence of Mr Smith's occupancy...except that, on occasion, a desk drawer would open by itself!)

can't 1 44, Bwahaha?
The War was right around the corner, a great cast, and a light, goofy plot. In context this movie is a piece of history. And we should see it as this. I mean Zucco, H.B. Warner, Blondell, Roland Young, the great Eddie (Rochester) Anderson, already an established star from the Jack Benny Show, Cabin in the Sky, The Green Pastures, Billie Burke the former Mrs. Ziegfield and Glinda the Good Witch from The Wizard of Oz.
This movie is a treasure!! Dig!
Rochester is absolutely priceless in this, hysterical "Do I look as pale as I feel?". Love this movie but still my favorite is Topper the original. 😁🍿✨
Excellent movie for 80 years old. Special effects way ahead of their time.
ok I watched this like 40 times and each time its gets better :) I listen to it when I am laying down going to sleep , I listen to it when I am working on my computer :)
Dawn Ratliff so do I! I love it! I thought I was the only one who did that 😀
I love old movies. The days when filth and blatant sexuality did not not hit you over the head, Rochester is wonderful. Billie Burke Hilarious. Roland Young is my favorite Topper. This is a great movie for Fall.
I actually know someone who sounds just like the actress with the funny voice!
Dawn Ratliff me too
stardustgirl Gracie for one
It’s 2024, I like this movie, thanks Pizzaflics!
Just delightful with a outstanding cast. All played their roles to the fullest.
The music enhances the storyline along with the special effects makes the movie. All Brings out the best for this movie with great writing and acting!!! Love this ❤️💯✔️🌠
"I'm going back to Mr. Benny!" Great line. Eddie Rochester, of course, was Jack Benny's sidekick for a long time, and a wonderful comedian.
He was very talented!
@@stardustgirl2904, yessir mister Benny!
I'm 64 going on 39!
Seth Tyrssen 👍💖
Seth Tyrssen I love Eddie he’s my favorite character in this movie
What a fun movie! The seal scenes with Rochester were the best parts of the film. Also, could hardly believe the size of the ice box.
THANK U I JUST WATCHED THIS OLD AND FUNNY AND EXITING MOVIE AND LOVED EVERY MINUTE- OLD BUT GOLD.
Wonderful movie! Loved the way special effects were handled, seemed more "natural", and "believable", especially the ghosts. Thanks and blessings for sharing this gem of a comedy/murder mystery. 🙏👏👍👍♥️
I loved watching this movie. So funny. Great technology for its' time. Can't wait to show my 11 year old. She'll love it. Thank you for this "who did it comedy". First time watched Carol Landis and Joan Blondel. I'm a 70s girl. Going to watch some more of their movies. Thumbs up!
"Where's my husband?" "He's in the sitting room." "Maybe she's sitting on his lap." "You mean you have a room just for that?" LOL Billie Burke is wonderful.
Classic
they used to have GREAT WRITERS, thus great movies
That is one of my favorite scenes 🤣
Such a great film!!! Twists & turns, humor and ouchies galore. 👍🤣😲
I love these kinds of movies.
Billie Burke - always flash back to her as Glenda the Good Witch (Wizard of Oz), and until recently didn't understand the additional attributes shown in subsequent roles as a comedic actress. Her unmistakable voice, as well as comedic timing, are to be treasured as part of the Golden Years of Hollywood.
Billie was married to the Great Ziefield. she was a totally7 different person in real life.
Lisa German
Not to mention, she was Flo Zigfeld's wife.
And Golden they were. No TV or electronics then. Movie comedies were made to be funny and they were.
Love Billie Burke she was silly but funny actress and play in any movie if she wanted to and knock her performances out of the park. We don't have actresses like this anymore and what a shame we don't.
I think she's in THE CHEATERS, an amazing CHRISTMAS movie with a stellar plot, hardly noticed at Christmas time
I wish there were more. I think this last installment was the funniest. That chauffeur should have had his own show, he's the funniest of them all.
Absolutely classic. 'Here read it or am I expecting to much?' They cannot write them like this anymore
Good writers in every generation
That was a forest funny movie!! I’d love to watch movies like this everyday! TY👍✌️🙂
@42:26 I LOVED Billie Burke's "sitting room" lines ` "Good heavens, you mean you've got a room just FOR that?"
That house is absolutely exquisite and WOW, what a view!!
Watching in 2023. An old time. Favorite. As a young kid once. Topper!
The special effects back then were great. I love all the Toppers . I even own the series.... 😊
I wish they made a whole series of these. They're so funny. The chauffeur is hilarious.
Have you seen the original with Cary Grant and Constance Bennett?
I suspect that the studios had other projects, but they could have made a few more sequels.
@@SuziQ.
Bennett has a unique presence
I LOVED THOSE TOPPER MOVIES.
There’s more than this one ?
@@lisapratt166 , Yes, the original “Topper” and “Topper Takes a Trip”. The first is on YT.
Sad they don't make this kind of films anymore. Better than now days films
Have watched this numerous times.....have fun each time. Arsenic & Old Lace is another one.
I haven't seen Arsenic and Old Lace in years.
Thank you so much, this is a wonderful movie and just what I needed recovering in hospital from a major operation
I hope you're feeling better
Hope you are feeling better
"Whoever stole that witness, put her back!" Wonderful!
I always loved the seal pushing Edward back into the water. My favorite part as a kid even as an adult. Love this movie.
Carole Landis...Simply Beautiful...
An old guy liking old movies/ should, but won't say," those good old days".
Brilliant movie, thanks for posting this.
I remember this movie as a kid growing up. Brings back old memories.
Love the old movies hilarious SITUATIONS thank you
Yes I love this old movie
The Ghosty with the Mosty!!...Right up there with "I Married a Witch"...I'm in Heaven!!...Thank you so much!!!
I remember laughing and laughing at the foot prints in the snow. He was so funny.
That was a fun movie,Thank you for showing it,Pizza Flix!
Topper got himself a very nice car! I like the seats. Look comfortable.
If I remember correctly, it's the Kerby car from the first movie.
It's a beautiful car.
@@suburbohemian George's car in the first film had a streamline design and a big fin on the rear. To my taste it didn't look as good as the car in this movie.
Love those Old movies!! Topper’s especially!! Thanks. For showing them!! ❤️👍😂
With all the craziness going on it’s lovely to escape it for a little while. I really loved this film 💖🏝💖
I loooooved this film. It has it all, mystery, some romance.....it builds up....and then it drops a woooping surprise! Thaaaanks for making these films availabe to view. It is so amusing. I like your choices. Thank you PizzaFlix!
MR. TOPPERRRRRRR! Rochester falling in the water classic classic comedy from him cracks me up every time I see it!
this is a great movie thanks for posting
Brilliant, funny film ❤😂 Really uplifting on a bad day for me, thanks for uploading 😍😍😍
Great movie. Really enjoyed it thank you
Great old movie...thanks for sharing.
Awesome classic thanks for sharing.
What a great old movie! Thank you Pizzaflix for so many wonderful memories! Made at a time when going to the Theater was my favorite time of the week! Ghosts, pretty girls from the movies caused us to dream and pretend all throughout the week til the next movie arrived!
A
Wonderful old movie Carol Landis was a nice looking actress with talent in fact a lot of talent in this movie. Thanks for uploading.
cute movie. what a joy to see the old movies
Billie Burke was a comedic genius.
omg yes she was incredible!!!
MaryJane McCoy
Btw she was the wife of Ziegfeld ;))
She was 54 years old as Glinda,the Good Witch , in Wizard of Oz !
She must have been a total riot in the day. Just absolutely silly and flippant, quick witted, poetic in motion ... yeah. Burke was a gem.
Love her ❤️
If all movies were as this we all would fight for box office line
Get smart youtube
and that gorgeous room at marker 15
What a wonderful film. It makes all the current superhero films look awful.
At least the acting is energetic and these people are allowed to rip through their moronic characters. And these old people are pretty damned athletic and sturdy, wouldn't we say? Eddie Rochester must have been a great sport for having to endure these cheap shots at his race. In fact the entire film is cheap shot at all the races especially the whites who are portrayed as stumbling, bumbling incompetents of leisure.
@@billkarmetsky4003 lol that's part of the fun of it.
They look awful in, of and by themselves...
@@jamescrane1987 , I was going to say that. Most of the new superhero movies are boring and awful.
The superhero films of today ARE awful. Even without comparing them to the wonderful movies of yesterday. This was when tv and movies were good. Actors were the best. I've had this movie on DVD for years but Im so glad it's on You Tube!!! Thank you!! God bless🙏🤗❤️
Great film well done Pizzaflix. Five Stars.
That was a real gem of a film. Loved the one liners..........
I loved these topper movies ! Cosmo was a blast from the past !
Joan's so pretty. If Simone is related, I'd be danged if I could tell which girl is/was more magnetic. Such beauty and talent is rare. Thanks for the great copy.
I'll watch any film with Joan Blondell!
One of my absolute favorites. Saw it the first time while sitting on my pop's lap. Watched it countless times ever since.
These movies are so well done. What a delight!
@3:45 That little trick with the slightly pulled up skirt was successfully employed by Claudette Colbert in It Happened One Night when Clark Gable just could not make a car stop for them.
@38:10ff She: "Would you mind coming with me?" He, incredulously: "Upstairs?" She nods. He: "With you?" She nods again. He, after fiddling around with his hat: "I better come back in the morning." -
Ah, those innocent and decent days!
Carol Landis was good in this but Joan Blondel was incredible, I love her films and would like to see more.
Tom Hawkins quite good
One of the better movies from that time era I can watch it over and over and I don't get tired all the character actors especially HB Warner has always been one of my favorites Joan Blondell goes without saying Carole Landis straightforward says her lines does her part and looks good doing it Rochester a gas ❕❕ and Billy Burke always rounds up any movie
🌹💀🌹💀
I like the old movies best; mainly because they are the best!
david48 "
Don't forget Patsy Kelly.... Patsy Kelly was everyone's favorite maid.
all the Topper movies are excellent. the casts, the scripts, the special effects, just brilliant 💯🥂
Love this. Have watched it more times than I can remember and still gets me
I've watched this over and over love these old movies
who is watching this movie in 2019?
I'm watching! I've watched this old movie so many times! Characters are excellent and enjoyable! How I love the Topper movies! Those cars are simply fabulous!
I doo, more this movies than new!
@@jeannehageman3198 same here. I'm fascinated with the dressing style and talking way of early 1900's. These movies are like medicine to me. It takes me to a peaceful time when the world was slow. those beautiful hairstyles.
I watch it a couple times a month. I know it word for word almost
My first time watching movie i love watching old movies more than new
OMGOSH!! I’ve ALWAYS LOVED “Topper” Movies!!!! Been hoping Against Hope That I’d get to see some Again!!!! THANKYOU 😃😄❤️❤️‼️ P. S. especially when and after HE becomes a ghost‼️
Too funny. Didn't know murder mystery could be so comic. Enjoyed it thoroughly. Lol
SUCH GOOD CHILDHOOD MEMORIES OF THESE OLD MOVIES. REMEMBER TURNING ON THE TV AND WAITING FOR THOSE TUBES TO WARM UP. THE. WOULD APPEAR ON THE SCREEN, AND THEN IT WAS ONLY A MATTER OF A FEW MINUTES THE PICTURE WOULD COME IN.
I enjoyed the 1936 540K Mercedes and the 1935 Packard Super 8. Really great autos. There was also a 1937 Buick Century Bohman & Schwartz used.
That is when cars were as beautiful as jewelry, "worn" as an accessory just as a diamond necklace & diamond ring, showing one's status in life & a symbol of the owner's personality & aesthetic appreciation for the artful body design of the magnificent car.
Cars of that era were art in motion.
Truly functional art.
Exquisite!
Thank you for the car info they are all beauties.back when cars were works of art haha
Thanks for posting luv old movies, would luv to see the original other 2 movies before this.
It was a quirk that we even got this one. The studio failed to renew the copyright within the 28th year after publication and the movie went into public domain. I feel sure they didn't make that same mistake with the other two Topper films...if only they had (sigh)...
@FMargaret Ellison maybe
I was wrong. Found Topper Takes a Trip in my suggestions today.
ua-cam.com/video/ZO6pa6qj-i4/v-deo.html
@@dontaylor7315 , The original is free on YT.
@@SuziQ. The one with Cary Grant, Constance Bennett and Roland Young?
Edit: Yes! Found it! Thanks!
@@dontaylor7315 , I found all three for free on YT, and watched the second, Topper Takes a Trip” this morning. Constance, Roland & Billie are in it, but they used archive footage for the tiny bits of Cary Grant (I guess he wasn’t available).
Love these Topper movies, so clever.
Love this movie seen it several times
The 30s n 40s were the golden years of film. Best talent stories writing everything.
I loved the part where the cab driver tells the policeman to break the glass and instead of breaking the glass on the freezer he drops a glass.
Boy oh Boy now I've stopped laughing I think I can write a comment I think the writer and producer and the whole cast should have received an Oscar it's fortunate that so many of us are in a age group to appreciate the quality of such movies thank you so much ❤😂❤😂❤❤😂❤😂
I enjoyed it do much i have such a good laugh. Thx so much for uploading. from South rica

Thank you. Excellent movie.
I love this fun movie. I remember reruns of this when I was a boy.
Love this movie, check out the other Topper movie with Cary Grant, very funny.
Art Johnson
The original Topper with Grant and Bennett I believe, was fabulous.
There is a third one of these movies called Topper Takes a trip...just in case you're interested 😊
@@barbaravick5634 the first type of movie was absolutely hilarious they don't like make it like that anymore
Where could I find a film starring Billie Burke & Cary Grant??? Please won't someone respond. This lockdown 4 me is totally old, sorry & depressing!!!!!!! You see, I've been locked down since ( I do hope that u are sitting down now).. since the end of October, year 2018, I got home, to my home (crap) home just in time for holloween!!! & Also, Thanksgiving.

Art Johnson- YES!! Anything with Cary Grant- How bout “Arsenic and Old Lace”, Please 😂‼️
THIS MOVIE WAS JUST WONDERFUL.
What a Wonderful, Very Funny, VERY WELL DONE Movie....WAY before its time....BRAVO.
What a crazy movie. Love it. Last time I saw a Topper movie was early 70's.
Beautiful. Pure, distilled "movie magic"; something that no other artform could present to the same effect. Would "Master and Margherita" have such of a foothold, or vice-versa, without a common fantasy? Also Wilkie Collins, who came first. Nuts, I know, but so.
Hello there !!!!! I think my new user name should be, "born too late!!!" I wasn't born untill 53. Now I see what all the hoopla is all about!!! Billy Burke, Rodney or is Rochester, & Joan Blondell. Wow ! Movie magic. So cute & comical !!! But it's 4:24 a.m. & I have too get my shut eye !!! Thanks so much 4 posting this!!!
Just Brilliant, watched Topper takes a trip also Brilliant, all the cast are marvellous.
Love Billie Burke and Roland Young! Great supporting cast.
Have always loved Blondell and Burke..oh their voices..so recognizable
