Arsenic and Old Lace, one of my absolute favorites!! Zaney Comedy, well done like so many black and white films of this era. Carry Grant and the entire cast run you thru a fast paced, unexpected, memorable comedy that I have loved since I was a child. Marx Brothers, Night at the Opera, once again another zany comedy! What else would you expect after I wrote Marx Brothers. I haven't watched the other two movies in years, but I remember thinking these were great movies as a child. Evidently, so did TMC. I pray that children of this era, take the time to discover these true comedy classics

Arsenic and Old Lace is one of the best comedys because it mixes the macabre with a hint of the ludicrous and is able to make it look normal. Furthermore, it does it without the sexual and obscene glamour common to today's films. The film is pertinent in today's society not only as an icon of how to be funny without being perverse but also as a historic staple of what life could be like during that time period. As with all classic films, the object of these films was not to present state of the art 3-D but rather to tell a story in such a way that it was not only memorable, but also left a person with an overall sense of wellbeing. The films are a pick-me-up of the highest calibur, without the common corruption of some of todays films.

I love these movies. I was excited that my 8 year old daughter even got into it and made us wait to watch the rest with her when it was her bedtime.
