3.0 out of 5 stars LUCY MEETS DESI, February 8, 2002

By

This review is from: Too Many Girls [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This pleasantly modest little film from 1940 is important as a footnote in the history of Hollywood: it was during its filming that rising 29 year-old movie comedy actress Lucille Ball met a 23 year-old Cuban Conga drummer named Desi Arnaz! It's a fast-paced musical comedy full of peppy performances and musical numbers. Lucy plays an heiress who takes a shot at campus life accompanied by a quartet of bodyguards, all of whom are topnotch football players...Ann Miller dances up a storm and Desi delivers a hot conga interpretation of SPIC AND SPANISH. Upon meeting Desi, Lucy once remarked "It was NOT love at first sight. It took 5 minutes!" Lucy and Desi married in Greenwich, Connecticut on November 30, 1940. Eleven years later, I LOVE LUCY would make Ball and Arnaz America's most beloved couple in the entertainment world. Van Johnson made his film debut in this musical frolic, the score of which includes the perennial Rodgers and Hart tune I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TIME IT WAS.

This movie is a must see for Lucy and Desi fans as they met and fell in love while making it. Lots of fun music and dancing and you will also see a young Betty Grable too.

4.0 out of 5 stars very fun, August 7, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Too Many Girls [VHS] (VHS Tape)

this film was very fun to watch as it was very upbeat and filled with music. it was especially interesting to watch knowing that the greatest romance of the century started as a result of the movie being made (of course i mean lucy and desi's). i would recommend that if your in the mood for a harmful upbeat comedy (and/or happen to love lucy and desi) you should rent this movie.
