Arthur’s Whisky Chick Flick With A Twist

By Charlotte Robinson, March 10, 2025

Surfing for a decent movie to celebrate Women’s History Month I landed on a fabulous 2024 gem starring Oscar winner Diane Keaton, OBE winner Patricia Hodge & the legendary singer & actor Lulu on Prime Video. I have to admit I’m a major fan of Diane Keaton & will watch anything that she appears in & her performance in Arthur’s Whisky does not disappoint. The film also has a cameo performance with Boy George & a rare appearance with Hayley Mills. Arthur’s Whisky is a smart feel-good comedy about living in the moment. When Joan’s (Hodge) husband dies she discovers he had invented an anti-aging elixir that literally takes the years off. Sharing it with her two friends Linda (Keaton) & Susan (Lulu) the three rejuvenated women waste no time in painting the town red but they soon realize it’s a very different world to the one they remember. The film also features Genevieve Gaunt, Esme Lonsdale & Hannah Howland as the younger versions of the women. The film also stars Screen Actors Guild Award winner David Harewood, Bill Paterson (House of the Dragon), Adil Ray (Blithe Spirit) & winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK Lawrence Chaney. This film delivers a LGBTQ twist & throughout feels like the world we’re fighting for filled with diversity, equality & inclusion & reflects on generational society expectations. The Sky Original film was directed by Stephen Cookson, written by Alexis Zegerman & produced by Stephen Cookson & Peter Keegan at CK Films & Pippa Cross at Cross Day Productions. Watch Trailer
