Even more respect for Lucy...


As a lifetime Lucille Ball fan, I thought she was a wonderful actress in this movie. I hated her character, and that just shows how good of an actress she is, because she goes from a comedienne we all love from a hateful, mean-spirited character who you want to see die!

I was more impressed by her scene with Pinks in the bedroom near the end. She makes us sympathize with her (at least she did me!). I have also never seen her look more beautiful than in this scene - the big studios were past masters at lighting for glamor and fantasy.

Lucille was glorious in the film.
