Arsenic and Old Lace.

This black farce combines the bizarre and the mundane. Cary Grant stars as a mild-mannered drama critic who learns that his two kindly aunts have been inviting elderly gentlemen to their Brooklyn home and poisoning them with elderberry wine. Two murderers move into the same house with the idea of adding a few corpses of their own. (Does not circulate)
