At the time Arthur came out in the theaters in 1981, I was 12 years old and being raised in an abusive, dysfunctional household. As a result, I turned towards watching LOTS of TV and went to the movies as a way of providing myself with escape and comfort from my misery. Back then I was going to the movies with my then best friend. We were a couple of fanatics about the movies. We talked, read, ate, drank, and slept the movies. And we went to the movies together once a week, every week for a lot of years from the 1970s-1980s. We saw literally hundreds upon hundreds of movies together over the years. We tried to see every new movie that came out regardless of plot, genre (he loved horror films, I preferred comedy), critics reviews, who was starring in it, etc. So there was no particular reason we went to see Arthur. It just happened to be a new movie that was just released. As much as I loved the moviegoing experience in itself regardless of what I saw, as an abused, neglected child, there were a small handful of movies that stood out and managed to hit me in the very right places at the very right time. Arthur was one of those movies. Right from my very first viewing, it quickly became one of my all time favorite movies and remains that to this day. In the following years, whenever Arthur popped up on tv, I'd drop everything to watch it. Today I own the movie on DVD. So, I say to the cast and crew of Arthur, from the bottom of the heart of an abused boy, I thank you all so very, very much.

Gielgud was 76 when he made Arthur, born 1904 and movie released 1981. Like every great cult movie so many actors turned down the part of Arthur and nobody thought it would do well so they let Dudley Moore improvise a lot as did the other members of the cast and it showed everyone had fun making it. I miss the strong smell of popcorn that you had back in the 80’s movies. It was about the experience of having a shared experience with other movie goers and less about the movie itself

My favorite line! Walks in and looks around then you see that disgusted look and he says “how revolting...”

I enjoyed watching these Hobson moments. Wasn’t John Gielgud great as Hobson. Then, oh God, he says the last lines; “You’re a good son.” just as my mum said to me. 😥
