Things I Like: Arthur Brooks (Big Daddy)

Josh Mostel as Arthur Brooks Big Daddy 1999 film Adam Sandler

Arthur Brooks isn’t a very likable character in Adam Sandler’s Big Daddy film, but that’s mainly because of this perspective we see. He was just doing his job. I also never realized this was the same guy who played Principal Anderson in Billy Madison, which is kind of obvious now.

While Sonny was wrong to pretend to be Kevin Garrity, I don’t know why he didn’t even ask for ID.

But mainly due to Sonny’s moronic decisions, he figures things out and takes Julian away and has Sonny arrested.

Somehow showing up on the prosecution side of the trial, despite him not being a lawyer. I get him being a witness, but he doesn’t need to be on that table.
