Topper Returns (1941)

Even for a twenty-first century viewer, the Oscar-nominated special effects in this supernatural comedy whodunit were highly entertaining. Joan Blondell's performance made me want to seek out more of her movies. Roland Young played the titular Topper in this third outing with great aplomb. Small parts played by known horror/thriller actors added a depth to this otherwise light comedy. The mystery plot kept me guessing. Overall, a delightful flick.
