Twentieth Century-Fox Film

Bored youth living with his grandma schemes with his selfish girlfriend to murder her, or at least scare her to death. They re-route a protest parade in front of their apartment, convincing grandma that she is too old and they are coming to forcibly take her away. It works, but it turns out grandma changed her will at the last second writing him out if he married his girl. He somehow convinces her to help him find a new wife which they can use to get the money, leading to new complications. Drab, dreary film with unlikable characters and unrealistic situation.
