I would like to see a biopic about the people from I Love Lucy, Mainly Lucille Ball & Desi Arnaz ( kind of like Walk the Line detailing their romance etc).
Also a Marilyn Monroe biopic would be great.
The only problem is.... There is nobody that I can think of that can Portray any of these people.
Do you?
What other Biopics would you like to see?
I have to admit that sometimes knowing more about a person and their relationships is not necessarily a good thing for me as it can lead to disillusionment. For example, from what I know Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz did not exactly have a storybook romance. The relationships on the show I Love Lucy were not as closely-knit as they appeared.
shareAn I Love Lucy biopic would be interesting. Another thing they can portray is William Frawley and Vivian Vance's relationship. It was not a good one.
Johnny Carson 1925-2005. We will never forget you.
The TV movie Lucy, does a good job of portraying Lucy, Desi, Vivian, and William Frawley.
If I were to make another biopic, sue me but I would not use Debra Messing. She has a striking resemblance to Lucy, but her comedy is different. Lucy is a clown, Debra is a sexy straight man comic. I think MadTV comedian Nicole Sullivan does the best job of doing Lucy other than Lucy impersonator Suzanne LaRusch, but she's a bit too old.
For Desi, Antonio Bandaras often reminds me of Desi, but is too old for the part I think.
For Vivian Vance, I like the idea of Lee Garlington.
And Finally for William Frawley, I think Vlasta Vrana or even Albert Finney!

Also The Scarlett O'Hara War (1980) (TV) has an actress playing Lucy auditioning for Scarlett in a bit part and the film Rat Race (2001) has multiple Lucy impersonators.
