#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

monkeygirlsmama My mom and dad were in their high school drama club's version of this play! 10mo

lynneamch @monkeygirlsmama What a fun memory. A classic! I remember going to Michigan Stare University to see it for a high school field trip in the 60s. 10mo

AnnCrystal 😂👍🎬💝. Love that Movie! Love Cary Grant (I believe BBC just made a movie about his life and career).

Wouldn't it be great if they made a part two of
Arsenic and Old Lace? Where Mortimer and Elaines grandkid inherit the house that has been boarded up and abandoned. Perhaps the grandkid is a cook who considers opening a B&B when the ghosts awaken from the basement! Including the ghost of Jonathan and other Brewsters... 😂 (edited) 10mo

#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

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
