Twice Dead is a 1948 caper surrounding two elderly bachelors, Sydney Wadsworth, founder of an exclusive New York golf club in 1921, and Toby Worthington, his inseparable friend. Discovering a member dead in the golf club locker room, they place him on the golf course to spare the club embarrassment.
