Product Description

The Corpse Came C.O.D. (1947)

Director:

Henry Levin

Writers:

Dwight V. Babcock, George Bricker

Stars:

George Brent, Joan Blondell, Adele Jergens

Reminiscent of the classic "screwball" comedy-mysteries of the prewar years, Columbia's The Corpse Came C.O.D stars Warner Bros. alumniGeorge Brent and Joan Blondell as rival Hollywood-based reporters Joe Medford and Rosemary Durant. When movie star Mona Harrison (Adele Jergens) receives a dead body in her morning mail, Joe and Rosemary fall over each other trying to solve the mystery and deliver a newspaper story "that'll tear this town wide open." Joe deduces that the dead man was involved with a jewelry-smuggling racket, while Rosemary chases down the stolen gems. Three murders later, the two reporters expose the killer-and though it wouldn't be nice to reveal the killer's identity, it's also worth noting that it won't be much of a surprise, either. Topheavy with comedy at the expense of mystery, The Corpse Came C.O.D. is an entertaining trifle, with the actual Columbia backlot standing in for the movie's fictional film studio.

DVD is quality

Posted by RJ on Apr 19th 2020

The DVD is excellent quality. The story is a screwball comedy-mystery and has a few laugh out loud scenes.
If you like the old classics you should enjoy this.
