I can't believe Arthur, my favorite celebrity, gave in to corruption and became a sellout. Now I'm questioning everything. Is the library even fun?

    He should have stuck with being an English alcoholic socialite in New York City.

    I had to dig really hard to find this one. Why is he so well known to you?

    I mean it's a movie with the exact same title as the show everyone is talking about? Doesn't seem like that much of a deep cut

    ...Arthur, from 1981. Like I said, it has the same title as the show? Am I being trolled?

    Oh!! Sorry - I thought the OP was referring to a real person called Arthur Bach.

    I actually finally googled it and realized it's just a film, from 1981 as you say. OP is not a connoisseur of the NY Social Elite... he just watched films as a kid

    Sorry for the mixup!

    No problem haha. There's actually an obituary for an Arthur Bach from Manhattan who supposedly worked on the world trade center, that came up when I googled it, but idk if it's real or if it's an AI misunderstanding because it only shows up on one site.
