I watched “Arsenic and Old Lace” the other day.

It’s inn the top 100.

Hysterical movie.

At some point in the 1990s, I sat and watched Arsenic and Old Lace, followed by Philadelphia (the 1940 version). Surprisingly fresh material and great laughs. About a week later, they put on ‘Along Came Jones’...brilliant western comedy. There must be a hundred great comedies made from 1932 to 1940, and far better than anything made these days.

I really enjoy that movie. But it makes me think of the current state of “mental health”. Would today’s professionals encourage Teddy’s delusion that he is Teddy Roosevelt and insist that everyone address him as Mr President?

“Arsenic and Old Lace”, “Bringing up Baby”, “Operation Petticoat”, “Topper”, “His Girl Friday”. + More. One can make a top 10 list of just Cary Grant movies.
