Arsenic and Old Lace | 
Cary Grant is my fave Old Hollywood actor (I own all 72 of his movies 😳). My fave movie of his by far is the hilarious dark comedy Arsenic & Old Lace. It was filmed in 1941 but released in 1944. During this time, Cary became a United States citizen & donated his entire salary from this movie to the war effort. Can‘t recommend it enough!
insanity runs
in his family — no it

#NewYearNewBooks #InvolvesPoison It was a play before it was a movie. Cary Grant is in the movie , it‘s been awhile since I watched it . Play was published in 1941, movie was 1944
#TemptingTitles #WithOld Definitely makes my shortlist of best titles ever! I‘ve seen the stage production, but it would be fun to read the original sometime. Preferably in a tattered paperback from this era. @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
Today‘s prompt of #poison reminded me of this classic play, which is perfect for the holiday.

My husband and I decided to play bingo together. Purple Xs - Scary movies I‘ve seen; Yellow Xs - Scary movies he‘s seen; Green Xs - movies we‘ve seen together. He leads the way in being able to watch truly scary movies! #Halloweenmoviebingo
#SeptemberDanes #poison I‘ve never read the book ... but I would like to. I loved the old movie .... ❤️🖤
Watching Arsenic And Old Lace. It‘s one of my favorites, and a must watch around Halloween. 🎃
Excellent Haiku 👏🏼🐝👍🏼🎬🐝💖.
BBC made his life story. I so hope I get to see it one day. Have you? I read that his childhood wasn't a happy one. As an adult, he found his mother (who his father told him was dead), and took care of her 💝. 2mo
I always wanted to see a continuation to Arsenic & Old Lace...a fun storyline might be where Mortimer's child or grandchild comes to own the “house“ by inheritance. It's been all boarded up and abandoned by Mortimer. The grandchild goes against the warning left by Mortimer, and plans to open a restaurant or B&B only to learn the place is haunted by the buried bodies in the basement and “the uncle.“
I'm always making up continuations 😂🎬💝. 2mo
