I just picked up my copy of this wonderful film yesterday at the B&N sale for July 2023. I used to have the less than nice Warner DVD. I love the fact that they tried to get Boris Karloff for the film since he did the play. I’d wanted this Blu-ray since Criterion first released it but the stores that I would go to would always be sold out of it. I was just lucky that it was back in stock during this sale. Still have yet to watch it!

I’m glad you enjoyed it. Arsenic & Old Lace is my favorite Cary Grant comedy followed closely by The Philadelphia Story which also has a Criterion release.

Loved this film. As someone who’s a fan of both Cary Grant and Peter Lorre, I can’t wait to obtain this film at the B&N Criterion sale next month.

Jean Adair actually helped nurse Carrie grant back to health some 20 years before this film

Hi! I like your channel a lot. Favourite comedy Cary Grant (after Arsenic): "The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxxer", with Myrna Loy and a teenage Shirley Temple! Lots of great dialogue. Favourite Capra: "You Can't Take It With You" from 1938, with an anarcho-communist message that's never been more timely than today.

Looking at picking this up but Barnes and Noble doesn't ship to me here in Australia so i;m trying to find a seller here that has it

the only criterion Blu Ray'''s I own are the Wes Anderson one's (I still need to pick up The darjeeling Limited)

Heading to barnss and noble today or the next day or two to grab this

Why did it wait until 1944 to be released?
