1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This movie allows you in the lives and work of america's favorite couple Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz! It talks about the good times and the bad times, it talks about hteir life, work, and home issues, it was very saad when Lucy stood over Desi and said "I wis hyou were dead." Everyone knows and loves them, this is a great movie for anyone, even if your not a Lucy fan! Get this movie!

~A Look At Americas Favorite Couple~ July 26, 2003
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
We all know Lucy and Desi as Lucy and Ricky Ricardo. But not many know about Lucy and Desi. This movie goes behind the scenes of Americas most famous couple. It was produced by their very own daughtor, Lucie Arnaz. You get to see the real thing and how Lucy and Desi ever met and how and why I Love Lucy ever started. You get to see what they really were like and why things happened the way they did. A great movie for any Lucy fan. This video is worth the money; for true Lucy lovers.
FASCINATING INSIDE LOOK AT THE ARNAZES February 1, 2003
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Lucie Arnaz Luckinbill has done a marvelous job with this documentary. Unlike most "Biography"-type interview programs, you realize that the interviewees here (family, friends, co-workers) are actually talking to Lucie herself, not some hired interviewer, about her parents in the early days of their marriage. They reveal the Lucy and Desi they remembered, warts and all. Many times it's far from pleasant. The video transfers of the Arnazes personal color home movies are masterfully done. Thank God they survived the years and Lucie graciously decided to share them with the millions of fans who adored her parents. Thank you, Lucie and Desi Jr. I love Lucy's kids, too.
A Fine Documentary June 30, 2002
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I have read many books and watched several videos/documentaries on Lucille Ball in an effort to better understand her life and further celebrate her comedic genius, and I've got to say that this was the best purchase of them all. "Lucy and Desi" is a fine, objective look at a troubled, but supremely talented and well-loved pair. While most other tapes I watched had the same pictures and clips, this one was full of things I had never seen or heard before. There are many, many interviews, and to anyone who has seriously studied Ball and Arnaz's lives, many names will be familiar. The tidbits they provide are alternately funny and heartbreaking. That brings me to the one reservation I have regarding this production. For anyone who thinks Lucy and Desi were just like their alter egos, the Ricardos, and would like to hang on to that myth, don't watch this film. Though it is a loving look, it doesn't shirk from revealing the dark areas of their personalities as well. Personally, I think this objective approach is important and should be commended, but when I first began to study Lucy, I was greatly shocked by the pain and unhappiness in her life, and it temporarily altered my unbridled enjoyment of "I Love Lucy". Just a warning. Still, any Lucy lover who is prepared for a few hard truths should thoroughly enjoy this fascinating, well-made treat.
