Here is the list of all Jean Arthur movies.

Jean Arthur was an American actress known for her naturalistic acting style and her roles in classic Hollywood films of the 1930s and 1940s. She was born on October 17, 1900, in Plattsburgh, New York, and died on June 19, 1991, in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California, at the age of 90.

Arthur began her acting career in silent films in the 1920s, but it wasn't until the advent of sound in the 1930s that she became a star. She was known for her distinctive voice, which had a husky quality, and for her ability to convey complex emotions with subtlety and nuance.

Arthur starred in a number of acclaimed films throughout the 1930s and 1940s, including "Mr. Deeds Goes to Town" (1936), "You Can't Take It with You" (1938), and "The More the Merrier" (1943), for which she received an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress.

Arthur was also known for her collaborations with director Frank Capra, with whom she worked on several films, including "Mr. Deeds Goes to Town" and "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington" (1939). Capra praised Arthur's ability to bring a sense of reality to her roles, and she became known for her "Capraesque" performances.

Despite her success, Arthur was known for her reclusive nature and her tendency to avoid publicity. She retired from acting in the 1950s and lived the remainder of her life in seclusion, rarely giving interviews or making public appearances.

Arthur's legacy as one of Hollywood's most talented and respected actresses has continued long after her death. In 1980, she was awarded the Women in Film Crystal Award for outstanding women who, through their endurance and excellence, have helped to expand the role of women within the entertainment industry.
