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.
Arthur... Bach? Is that the reference?
Yup.
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
whats the movie?
...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.
Not really sure. I'm middle aged so maybe that's a factor? Funny thing is I've never actually seen either of those movies. I guess I have a fairly good memory for useless trivia.
Or you're a Christopher Cross fan?
Yes the library is fun!
Ask Mychal Threets!

Not if you don't have a library card
The literary OF girls never seemed to need cards
I have a library card. But I still find it difficult to have fun sometimes. Was it all lies?!
Do you think someone would actually do that? Just go on the Internet and tell lies?
