Whattttt was this movie. I can’t think of a movie where expectations and reality have been so starkly disparate. This movie is dark, dark, dark–leavened, of course, by a lot of humor including a really fine (almost a touch too manic in parts) performance by Cary Grant. But the plot elements–serial killer aunties, a man who thinks he’s Teddy Roosevelt, and the whole Peter Lorre/Raymond Massey inside joke re: Boris Karloff–are off the charts ridiculous. I watched this late at night one night and fell asleep twenty minutes in…when I woke up, I thought I was hallucinating. Had to start from the beginning just to re-orient to what I was watching!
