Topper

Of course it's a comedy--what's funnier than rich, dead alcoholics? This is supposed to be a classic, but really it's a major disappointment. The humor has not aged well; the supposedly sophisticated comedic hijinx come off as mere shallow silliness. All in all, the story just never really catches fire, and even the presence of the great Cary Grant can't save it. Forget this one.
