Arsenic and Old Lace

Although the movie was a good bit older than everyone in the class, it was a really good movie.  It made murder seem like something that means nothing at all, like murder is not actually taking a life.  When Mortimer found out that his aunts had killed not just one but many men (for charity) they acted as if they had done nothing wrong.  Murder is an act punishable by death yet, the Brewster sisters murdered men for their charity to the community.  Aresenic and Old Lace put a seriously funny spin on the act of murder, it is a timeless classic that made me actually go out and buy the movie.
