Arsenic & Old Lace

(1944)
Mortimer Bruster is a newspaperman and author known for his diatribes against marriage. We watch him being married at city hall in the opening scene. Now all that is required is a quick trip home to tell Mortimer's two maiden aunts. While trying to break the news, he finds out his aunts' hobby; killing lonely old men and burying them in the cellar. This is just the set up of whats next to come. Trust me it gets worse.

senior year.Mr. Mingrones 4th period film class started it all.this was the first movie we watched to start off the school year.It is my personal favorite.Cary Grant became another name added to my actors I would have liked to fuck list.I loved the movie so much I had to tell thee bestie Christie to watch.did she want to? NO, she wanted to be dumb but after she finally decided to listen to me the wise one she fell in love with it instantly just as I had.yep I like to say that I opened her eyes to old films.this film served as a stepping stone to other old films.now the bitch is hooked.and it all started with a little arsenic and old lace.
