He is the best thing in this film, and it does have some good comic performances. I love it when Johnny is recalling his murders and Dr Einstein says, "Filling station?" etc.
Ah, dramatic irony. It's interesting that Dr. Einstein was trying to save Mortimer, sort of. You could say it was just because he didn't want to spend two hours torturing him, but I like to think it's because he still has a conscience.

This is one of Frank Capra's greatest works. If you would like to see this movie on Blu ray, just like me, please to the blu ray website and increase it's popularity: www.blu-ray.com/movies/Arsenic-and-Old-Lace-Blu-ray/43671/
If I was in the in the film of Arsenic and Old Lace a and when Cary Grant, I would have magic power and save Cary Gran life and if I would have Astral Projection and have the rest of the Family to heal me and walk me up. And I would telepathy tell him that I am alright and I not hurt, And orb him to safe back with the family and show him and tell him I got a new magic power
I really wish they had showed Peter Lorris face when they filmed this, he was brilliant and could do thing with his face no one could. I wish he had had better rules as he was better than so of the crap they put him in.

I wish Hollywood had given Peter Lorre more good comedic roles because he was obviously talented in that vein.
Just talented in general.
Peter Lorre was one of my favorite actors when I was a kid. At the minute I saw him in a movie, I knew it was going to be a good one.
*when you realize that Mortimer just described almost every horror movie ever*
1:45 Mmmmmph!!!!!!!

This is my very favorite part of the play and the movie. I just laugh my ass off every time I see this seen!
One of my favourite movies of all time .. never fails to make me roar with laughter 🤣🤣🤣
I love Peter Lorre in this movie
I do too. He's adorable.
I love Peter Lorre in any movie!
This is my favorite Peter Lorre movie, although my collection is missing a few of his films.

Kinda the same thing, isn't it?
I agree!
Hands down the best scene
LOVE Peter Lorre and Raymond Massey in this. I thought they were the best ones in this movie.
Totally
1:48 Where Cary looks at the screen and asks the audience for help. 😷😨😂
Our school play was Arsenic and Old Lace, and I was cast as Dr. Einstein, but it was canceled because of Covid.
What is to not like in Arsenic and Old Lace? Using Lorre and Karlof was brilliant. One of the best comedy movies.
It's not Boris Karloff, it's Raymond Massey

Such a great film 🎥 👏
How can you see them.
I just wanna know what Peter said in German like that was too fast for me to even catch
„Gott in Himmel was hab ich verbrochen“ = god in heaven what have I done (what misdeed have i done)
Why did he tie him up?
I love how he sets himself up here to be the victim unknowingly, pretty arousing.
