Re: Movies for Dementia patients
 

The whole movie is funny, but that is the most famous scene, the stuff with the poison.

The entire movie of Susan Slept Here is on youtube. Director Frank Tashlin was a former cartoon director so he always throws in sight gags even when doing a romantic comedy.

Re: Movies for Dementia patients
 

The Marx Brothers might be a good choice - Harpo typically played an instrument in them - Night At the Opera

Ginger Rogers/Fred Astaire flicks - music and dancing - Top Hat

Judy Garland - Meet Me In St Louis - a little over on time though; Easter Parade

Busby Berkley movies - 42nd Street

Gene Kelly - Singin' in the Rain - On the Town - Take Me Out To the Ballgame

Re: Movies for Dementia patients
 

One movie you might want to consider: High School Musical - I've never seen it, but it might work. School of Rock is another maybe.

Re: Movies for Dementia patients

Re: Movies for Dementia patients
 

Good luck finding them Russian movies.
