"Arsenic and Old Lace" is the right blend of screwball and dark comedy.

I found this movie to be absolutely hilarious! And, at times, it was even very suspenseful. But, mostly just really funny.

Though directed by the sultan of saccharine, Frank Capra's adaptation of this famous broadway farce is so irreverent and macabre that you'd be forgiven for thinking Howard Hawks ghost-directed the thing. The chef-d'oeuvre of screwball comedy.

Sometimes this film is a little incomprehensible, but it does have a certain charm and madcap energy. Cary Grant really puts his all into the role.

I like screwball, but really, I didn't enjoy this at all. This movie tortured me.

A great comedic mystery that has you thinking and laughing. Grant is also perfect as the unsuspecting nephew. This is a great movie that you need to see now, even though it is over 60 years old.
