Arthur Takes Over is a 1948 American comedy film directed by Malcolm St. Clair and written by Mauri Grashin. The film stars Lois Collier, Richard Crane, Skip Homeier, Ann E. Todd and Jerome Cowan. The film was released on April 7, 1948, by 20th Century Fox.[1][2][3][4]

Plot

Mrs. Bixby (Barbara Brown) is determined that her daughter Margaret (Lois Collier) will marry a successful man and arrange a match. Margaret, however, marries her sweetheart James (Richard Crane), but insists the couple keep it a secret from her mother. The groom objects to this deception, but acquiesced. In an attempt to distract their mother, Margaret’s younger brother (Howard Freeman) pretends to be engaged, but only makes matters worse. Ultimately the mother discovers and truth and acknowledges that her daughter has married for love.[5]

Cast

Retrospective appraisal

Arthur Takes Over is representative of the low-budget “B” movies that director St. Clair made at the end of his career. Film historian Ruth Anne Dwyer reports that the scripts offered to St. Clair at 20th Century Fox in the late 1940s were “the weakest he had encountered” from the studio.”[6]

Though Arthur Takes Over exhibits “some charm and reasonable production values” the storyline is decidedly weak, “almost plotless.”[7]
