LOL, That was hilarious. They thought they were doing them all a favor. "Old, lonely and depressed...Oh! Let's help them!" So they would give them Arsenic. Strange, I know, but it was funny

Wow. I will definitely watch those later. No, I had no clue he was in that movie because I haven't seen any Lewis movies. I've only seen At War With The Army and that's Martin and Lewis anyways, but yeah, someday when I have money all to myself I'll buy movies lol.

Full Synopsis: Arsenic and Old Lace is director Frank Capra's spin on the classic Joseph Kesselring stage comedy, which concerns the sweet old Brewster sisters (Josephine Hull, Jean Adair), beloved in their genteel Brooklyn neighborhood for their many charitable acts. One charity which the ladies don't advertise is their ongoing effort to permit lonely bachelors to die with smiles on their faces--by serving said bachelors elderberry wine spiked with arsenic. When the sisters' drama-critic nephew Mortimer (Cary Grant) stumbles onto their secret, he is understandably put out--especially since he has just married the lovely Elaine Harper (Priscilla Lane). Given the homicidal tendencies of his aunts, the sinister activities of his escaped-convict older brother Jonathan (Raymond Massey) and the disruptive behavior of younger brother Teddy (John Alexander)--who is convinced that he's really Theodore Roosevelt, and runs around the house yelling "CHAAAAARGGGE"--Mortimer isn't keen on starting a family with his new bride. "Insanity runs in my family," he explains. "It practically gallops." Further complications ensue when the murderous Jonathan Brewster arrives home, with his snivelling accomplice Dr. Einstein (Peter Lorre) in tow. When Jonathan learns that his darling aunts have killed twelve men, he is incensed--they're challenging his own record of murders. Though the movie rights for Arsenic and Old Lace were set up so that the film could not be released until 1944, director Capra shot the film quickly and inexpensively in 1941, so that his family could subsist on his $100,000 salary while he was serving in World War II.

Oh I LOVE A&OL! That movie is one of my top-ten favorites and that's saying a lot since not many movies make it up in my top ten. Only ten. But anyway, enough with trying to be funny. I love Arsenic and Old Lace...I have a brother names Jonathan and he was practically as evil as the one in the movie (no offense to him) so that's probably another reason why I like it. lol. I practically live in a household like the Brewster. Literally. ~Rose P.S. I love Peter Lorre. He was Jewish and fled Germany, you know...just thought I'd try to act a little smart. :-P
