Newlywed (Cary Grant, pictured) finds out his aunts are mass-murderers. |
Reviewed by Chris Tookey
|
Black farce which some critics of the time found tasteless and cold-hearted. Many - though not all - found Cary Grant guilty of overacting (he is). The whole production is a bit stagey - but it's still funny, and much of the comic timing is razor-sharp.
