This madcap dark comedy is as funny as it is famous! The elderly Brewster sisters are the town darlings, but they have a little secret. Their nephew Mortimer discovers they are 'helping' lonely gentlemen boarders to early graves in the cellar by way of homemade, arsenic-laced wine! Add a brother who thinks he's Teddy Roosevelt, a criminal on the run, and the girl Mortimer wants to marry, and you have a recipe for hilarity.
