A Good Laugh!

I really enjoyed the movie Arsenic and Old Lace. I laughed for most of the movie. I honestly didn't expect it to be that great considering it was black and white, but it caught me off gaurd. What I loved most was how it was full of irony. Through the whole movie stuff was happening that wasn't supposed to. Mortimer, the guy against mariage, got married and the two sweet little old ladies were killing people. I love how the aunts thought it was the right thing to do to kill the lonely men. Mortimer made the movie by how much he was freaking out about the whole situation. He didn't know what to do about anything and you would think out of everyone he was the crazy one! This movie was really great and I had fun starting out the class with this movie!

  1. I know what you mean. I had the same reaction, I wasn't sure wat to expect. All I thought was "okay a black and white movie, how much greater can it get?"(saying this to myself), but it was very good. I know I shouldn't judge anything by it's cover but it's hard not to when everyone judges anything. If they say they don't judge, "THEY ARE LIARS!",people judge everyday. Overall the movie was great and is the fourth or fifth black and white movie I've seen for the past 20 years of my life.

  2. Yes you are right they would be liars! I haven't seen very many black and white movies myself but I know I enjoyed this one very much.
