Director: Frank Capra
This dark comedy follows a mild-mannered theater critic (Cary Grant) who discovers his sweet aunts' murderous secret: they've been poisoning lonely old men as a "charitable act". With mistaken identities, a lunatic brother, and nonstop laughs, this film delivers delightful chaos that only grows as the plot thickens. Grant's comedic timing shines in this madcap classic.
