Jacques and Joe delve into the Oscar-winning 1981 movie “Arthur” starring Dudley Moore and Liza Minnelli. Joe watched it for the first time this year, while Jacques has worn out his VHS copy several times over. Surprisingly, Joe did NOT watch Arthur 2 before seeing the original nor the 2011 Russell Brand remake, so his take on this classic will be truly fresh—and likely a hot one! The best that YOU can do is listen to this first—and maybe only—Sideshow of 2020! Cheers!
