ReviewsVariety - ...Sparkling entertainment....Moore is a delightful riot throughout and builds considerable sympathy..., New York Times - ...A terrifically engaging, high-spirited screwball comedy....[Minnelli and Moore] play together with the kind of energizing verve that one sees more frequently in the legitmate theater than on film...
Additional InformationArthur, a very rich, drunken ne'er-do-well, falls in love with a working-class shoplifter just as he is scheduled to marry a properly pedigreed society member. But if he doesn't marry the heiress, he will not inherit a $750 million trust. So Arthur turns to his loyal butler, who is slowly dying, for help. The butler wishes to see Arthur prevail and so manipulates a situation in which the true lovers will come together--and get the loot. But that is a lot easier said than done.<BR>ARTHUR is a charming romantic comedy that features the role that Dudley Moore was born to play. Whether taking limo trips through Central Park with prostitutes, playing with his train set, having a bath in a top hat, or wanting just a tuna-fish sandwich, Arthur, perfectly portrayed by Moore, is one of the most likable onscreen characters in cinema history. John Gielgud as his loyal, dry-witted butler is an out-and-out riot. And Liza Minnelli turns in one of her sweetest performances as the woman Arthur's family demands he stop dating. Steve Gordon's film is an absolute joy to watch, a perfect piece of celluloid entertainment that never fails to please no matter how many times one has seen it.

    The Moon & New York City

    This is such a wonderful movie that shows a guy who is so wealthy he has the moon in his hands yet as in real life you can have all the money in the world and never be truly happy. Dudley Moore plays this part you really can relate to the happiness the fun the heartache and with a heart warming style he has towards his butler played by Sir John Geilgood, its a typical movie that can make you smile make laugh and mand you cry. Just cause Arthur has all the money he can handle he's not happy and then forced into a arranged marriage than he doesn't want but if he does he inherites $750 million dollars but Arther has other ideas after meeting up with Liza Minnelli to which she's an ordinary girl making ends meet a little shoplifting to where Arthur saves her from the cops and the romance starts to blossom. So it's either marrying someone he doesn't love to inherate $750 million dollars or fall in love with the woman he wants to be with and have nothing..... Which would you take.... Love? Or the Millions?..... Absolutely brilliant movie and highly recommended

    Very bad sound quality.

    The picture shown as the DVD cover is not the one I received. I received the one with the mainly red cover. Let's talk about the audio. The sound is so poor! You have to turn the volume up so high just to hear it and then quality of the sound is so bad! Also, there are no subtitles whatsoever so that can't rescue the situation either. We watched it for 10 minutes and decided it was unbearable. We're going to wait for it to hopefully be on T.V. again. P.S. Apparently the only difference between the DVD with the mainly golden cover (as shown) and the one with the red cover is that the red cover is paper and the golden one is card. I thought I was buying a different version of the DVD as I already have the red one :(
