Despite starting his career as a straight, sober actor, after a while, Arthur became known for playing lovable, comedic drunks. In fact, Arthur was so good at playing this type of inebriated role, that he was hired to play fun, drunken characters in films starring many notable actors. This included 'Caught Plastered' (1931) with Wheeler and Woolsey, 'Movie Crazy' (1932) with Harold Lloyd, 'Scram!' (1932) with Laurel and Hardy, 'She Done Him Wrong' (1933) with Mae West, and 'Go West' (1940) with the Marx Brothers, to name but a few.
