4.0 out of 5 stars A DELIGHT FOR LUCY FANATICS., August 30, 2002

By	"scotsladdie" (GLENDALE, CALIFORNIA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

Made just before her foray into television immortality, Lucy plays Sally Elliot, a door-to-door salesgirl who gets herself unintentionally involved with murder. Taking along her boyfriend Humphrey (Eddie Albert), Sally has to escape the police and gets herself into some hilarious situations...Seemingly but only coincidentally, This little Columbia flick from 1950 seems like a primer for Ball's Lucy Ricardo character as it showcases Lucy in lots of slapstick, chases and other great comic bits which were to become her specialty. Eddie Albert is fine as her not-too-bright beau and Red Skelton makes a token appearance here as an inside joke in reference to his own film THE FULLER BRUSH MAN (1949), a very funny entry which co-starred Janet Blair.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lucy, Lucy, Lucy!, May 17, 2000

By A Customer

I've been a huge fan of Lucille Ball for six years (I'm almost 14 by the way) and I will be for the rest of my life. This is one of my all-time favorite Lucy movies. It's a great way to get laughs the old-fashioned way--without any "PG-13" or "R" printed on the box. I love the way Lucy does the drunk scene in this one. And those stupid parrots are a riot (anyone who's seen this movie before knows what I'm talking about)! I truly recommend this video for kids, adults, Lucy Lovers, history fanatics---anyone who wants a good laugh.

4.0 out of 5 stars Lucille Ball Shines in a Hilarious Farce, February 9, 2000

By	Michael Puckett (Little Rock, AR United States) - See all my reviews

This was one of Lucille Ball's last theatrical films prior to the debut of "I Love Lucy", and from the looks of things it was the final primer for her role as Lucy Ricardo. "The Fuller Brush Girl" was filmed in 1950 as a sequel to the very popular "The Fuller Brush Man", which starred Lucille's male counterpart, Red Skelton.

It's the story of a young couple, Kathleen and Humphrey, who just want to get married, buy a house and live happily ever after. But about the time they think they can put a down payment on their dream house, Kathleen causes a hugh electrical fire at the shipping company where she and Humphrey work and loses her job. Undaunted she decides to try door-to-door sales as a Fuller Brush Girl (she actually sells cosemtics, not brushes). Meanwhile back at the shipping company Humphrey is promoted to shipping manager, only he dosen't realize that he is being set-up as the fall guy by a smuggling ring. Through a hilarious set of circumstances the bumbling Fuller Brush Girl and the smuggling ring get mixed-up with each other and all hell breaks loose. In the ensuing tangle, there is murder, mayheim, police chases, a very funny striptease and some of the funniest sight-gags ever put on film.

The cast includes a very young Eddie Albert as Humphrey, Jeff Donnell as Kathleen's best friend and a who's Who cast of character actors.

The production values on this film are "B" quality at best but they actually help make this film really easy to watch. As a trivia note, the musical number in the film "Put The Blame On Mame" was the same recording used to dub Rita Hayworth's voice in the film "Gilda".
