What can I say? I love old films. I love their charm, beauty and wit. I also have a special place in my heart for classic comedic films. The genius of the Marx Brothers, of films like "Some Like it Hot," "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World," and "Arsenic and Old Lace" cannot be paralleled. For those of you who read my blog but have not had the opportunity or inclination to see such films, here is a small taste. I hope you will be able to appreciate the utter genius of all of these scenes and that they will inspire you to see the films.
From "Some Like it Hot":
From "Duck Soup":
And from "Arsenic and Old Lace": (this scene is somewhat long, but Cary Grant is fantastic)
