Raymond Massey, Peter
Lorre In Cast "Nine
Girls" Rialto Feature
" The poisonous pranks of two
lovable but, distinctly pixilated
old maids are laughingly re
counted in Warner Bros.' lethal
farce, "Arsenic and' Old Lace,"
starring tary uram, opening to-day
at the Craterian
wiTn a Dmuuui supporting
cast including Raymond Massey,
Jack Carson, Prlscilla Lane and
Peter Lorre, the film is based
on the stage success of the same
name by Joseph Kesseling,
which ran for mure than . four
years on Broadway under the
production aegis of Howard
Lindsay and Russel Crouse.
"Arsenic and Old Lace" is
concerned with two Brooklyn
Borgias, whose consuming pas
sion is to murder their lonely
male boarders. This they accom
plish with the unwitting aid of
an equally daft nephew, who
thinks he's "Teddy" Roosevelt.
The return of a second and
criminally insane nephew
(wanted by the police) with still
another corpse, adds to the com
plications. Discovery of what s
going on by the only sane Brew
ster in the lot (a third nephew,
who is a dramatic critic) brings
4 matters to a head. Nevertheless,
it all works out happily.
"Nine Girls" and "Oh, What
a Night" are featured on the
Rialto's twin-bill opening to
day. CALENDAR
