Arthur is a 1981 comedy film written and directed by Steve Gordon. The film stars Dudley Moore as the eponymous Arthur Bach, a drunken New York City millionaire who is on the brink of an arranged marriage to a wealthy heiress, but ends up falling for a common working-class girl from Queens. It was the first and only film directed by Gordon, who died in 1982 of a heart attack at age 44.
Arthur earned nearly $96 million domestically, making it the fourth highest grossing film of 1981. It was notable for its title song, "Arthur's Theme (Best That You Can Do)", co-written by Christopher Cross, Burt Bacharach, Carole Bayer Sager and Peter Allen, and performed by Christopher Cross. The film was nominated for a total of four Academy Awards. Sir John Gielgud won Best Supporting Actor and the theme song won Best Original Song.
Arthur Bach (Dudley Moore) is a spoiled alcoholic from New York City who likes to be driven in his chauffeured Rolls-Royce through Central Park. Arthur is heir to a portion of his family's vast fortune, which he is told will be his only if he marries the upper class Susan Johnson (Jill Eikenberry), the daughter of a business acquaintance of his father. He does not love Susan, but his family feels she will make him finally grow up. During a shopping trip in Manhattan, accompanied by his valet Hobson (John Gielgud), Arthur witnesses a young woman, Linda Morolla (Liza Minnelli), shoplifting a necktie. He intercedes with the store security guard (Irving Metzman) on her behalf, and later asks her for a date. Despite his attraction to her, Arthur remains pressured by his family to marry Susan.
Arthur is a 2011 romantic comedy film written by Peter Baynham and directed by Jason Winer. It is a remake of the 1981 film of the same name written and directed by Steve Gordon.

Some of the best moments from Arthur, featuring Sir John Gielgud
A video tribute I made to a great movie "Arthur". It stars Dudley Moore as the drunken millionaire who is being forced to marry a woman he dispises. He decides to fight for his right to make his own decisions when he meets Linda (played by Liza Minnelli), a wannabe actress who works at a diner. Also stars the great Sir John Geilgud as Hobson, Arthur's protective butler. *Note: I had some volume troubles when making this, because of which I could not do what I wanted during the sax solo. I had a Dudley Moore laugh montage that was really good, but you couldn't hear it next to the music...even when I had the clip volume on the highest setting. What you see in the video only took me a few minutes, and it is still pretty good. It gives Liza more screen time...still, i just wish I could've d...

OSCAR WINNER:Best Supporting Actor - John GielgudBest SongDudley Moore is in the money, in love, and inebriated as a spoiled drunken millionaire who risks forfeiting his fortune when he falls for a working-class woman. A huge box-office hit in 1981, Moore gives a memorable (and Oscar-nominated) performance who finds himself unexpectedly in love with a wise-cracking waitress, played brilliantly by Liza Minnelli. But Oscar-winner Sir John Gielgud steals the show as the stoic, yet sarcastic butler, Hobson. Still funny after all these years, "Arthur" also picked up the Oscar for the hit song, "Arthur's Theme," which was performed by Christopher Cross.
(via Wikipedia) "Sir Arthur John Gielgud, (14 April 1904 -- 21 May 2000) was an English actor, director, and producer. He achieved early international acclaim for his youthful, emotionally expressive Hamlet which broke box office records on Broadway in 1937. He was known for his beautiful speaking of verse and particularly for his warm and expressive voice, which his colleague Sir Alec Guinness likened to "a silver trumpet muffled in silk". Gielgud is one of the few entertainers who have won an Oscar, Emmy, Grammy, and Tony Award." Here, in a more commercial work which gave him his 1st Academy Award. 1981: Winner for Best Supporting Actor, for Arthur. He' s outstanding.

I'd like to tell ya
What you want to hear
I've made some changes
In this past year
It's so very simple yet
I'm so confused
My mind is so tired
My body is bruised
You don't know a thing if you're asking
You don't have a clue if you never knew
I'm cold I'm old
I know I've been told
One too many times
One too many times
Sit back relax
No interest no tax
One hand on my shoulder
