5.0 out of 5 stars Lucy did it again, June 9, 2001
By "leggomyeggodiego" (Goodyear, Arizona United States) - See all my reviews
Lot's of laughs and love in this particular Lucille Ball film. I think Lucy took the movie by 5/10 , meaning she stole the movie from the begining. With her smart talks and crazy ideas she did it again. I have never seen a Lucille Ball movie I did not like. In "Miss Grant takes Richmond" she takes the job of beauty, good looks, but no brains for the front desk of the Richmond Realty. With her the Richmond Realty will no longer have the cops to worry about. But the help of Miss. Grant. I recomend this movie to any Lucille Ball fan, and to a great evening of big laughs and more laughs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lucy at her best!, June 18, 2001
By Lillie Mae Chandler (Liberty, SC United States) - See all my reviews
Once again Lucy shows her expertise in comedy. The way she portrays herself as a student trying to get a diploma cracks us up. I think she was great .

5.0 out of 5 stars Miss Grant Takes Richmond, April 21, 2000
By Laura (Oklahoma City, OK) - See all my reviews
Miss Grant Takes Richmond is a hilarious Lucille Ball movie co-starring Bill Holden. Lucy is enrolled in a secretarial school, but is terrible. Bill Holden comes in looking for a secretary and surprisingly picks Lucy. Over time, she learns to be a great secretary. Unbeknownst to Lucy, she's involved with crooks. A great comedy from before Lucy was Lucy.
