Frank Capra adapted a hit stage play for this marvelous screwball
meeting of the madcap and the macabre. On Halloween, newly married drama
critic Mortimer Brewster (Cary Grant, cutting loose in a hilariously
harried performance) returns home to Brooklyn, where his adorably dotty
aunts (Josephine Hull and Jean Adair, who both starred in the Broadway
production) greet him with love, sweetness . . . and a grisly surprise:
the corpses buried in their cellar. A bugle-playing brother (John
Alexander) who thinks he’s Teddy Roosevelt, a crazed criminal who’s a
dead ringer for Boris Karloff (Raymond Massey), and a seriously slippery
plastic surgeon (Peter Lorre) are among the outré oddballs populating Arsenic and Old Lace, a diabolical delight that only gets funnier as the body count rises.
