Arthur is a sweet, somewhat pathetic character whose millions have left him lonely and with no motivation in life. Arthur is on the threshold of an arranged marriage with a simpering socialite, whom he does not love. Everyone expects Arthur to behave himself, but nobody truly cares for his well-being, with the exception of father-figure butler Hobson and blue-collar shoplifter Linda Marolla. Arthur would prefer to marry the lowly Morolla, but his iron-willed grandmother threatens to pull the plug on his huge inheritance if he doesn't honor his position in life and go through with his marriage.

    A MUST FOR ANY MOVIE COLLECTION

    By patsigirl  Oct 31, 2004

    Pros: Hilarious - one you will always remember and go back to!!

    Cons: NONE

    This has to be one of the best comedy movies ever made. Dudley Moore is amazing in this movie and so is Sir John Gielgud. I actually don't like Liza Minnelli that much as an actress but she is amazing as well. The story is perfect. The acting... is supurb. This is a movie that grabs you and makes you laugh and cry. I sure wish there were more movies out there like this one!!!!!!!!!!!!! So sorry that Mr. Moore and Sir. Gielgud are no longer with us. I for one am saddened that they are not here to make us laugh or cry anymore! Read more Less
