Description

In this beloved screwball comedy, Mortimer Brewster is a writer who wants to introduce his new bride to his elderly aunts. Instead, he is surprised to find a body in their window seat, and he learns they consider it an act of charity to poison lonely old men and bury them in the basement. While trying to keep this secret from his wife, the victims multiply, as does Mortimer’s fear that is it only a matter of time before he follows the family way of becoming a serial killer. 35 mm

Cast: Cary Grant, Priscilla Lane, Raymond Massey
