What an enjoyable hoot. Watching these four well-to-do biddies, with an enormous amount of time on their hands, get into trouble is great fun. They invent a fictitious woman and set up an account with a computer dating service to see, surreptitiously, what results they get. Unfortunately their result is a man with homicidal tendencies. He's a crud looking for a woman to support him and at times is scary. Even more unfortunately the biddies' actions lead to a prostitute's death. The murder can not be pinned on the old ladies, it shows that one's actions can have rippling and deadly results. The performances by Helen Hayes, Myrna Loy, Mildred Dunnock and Sylvia Sydney is worth seeing this film and I think led to the creation of the Snoop Sisters series. Highly recommended.
