National Evening of Science on Screen:
Cary Grant stars in this dark comedy about a newly-married theater critic who discovers that his beloved spinster aunts have been poisoning lonely old men.
Dubbed the “king of poisons,” arsenic has a rich and colorful history dating back to ancient times. Before the film, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and bestselling author Deborah Blum (The Poisoner’s Handbook) will give an overview of its early uses as well as its ongoing environmental ramifications.
