Purely Joyful Movie!
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
View MoreThe film may be flawed, but its message is not.
It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
View MoreAround 1998 l saw some parts of this movie when they are in mountain on a narrow dangerous road,that all,now just came out in Brazil officially and what a comedy,the couple of I Love Lucy are really eccentric,in the way they experienced all kind of trouble with a huge trailer,really unusual and original picture on the road,a bit dated but still strong for all tastes and ages,highly recommended!!Resume:First watch: 2018 / How many: 1 / Source: DVD / Rating: 7.25
View MoreOther than reasonable chemistry between Lucille Ball and husband Desi Arnaz, there is little remarkable about this film. When the newlyweds decide to honeymoon using a huge trailer, pulled behind a car, they have no idea what sorts of problems it will bring them. In addition to the things that happen with parking, driving, cooking and a host of other things, it would appear that this could be one of the shortest marriages of all time. When we were little, my sister and I attended this movie. Because we were Lucy fans we liked it, but I remember the constant confrontations and the yelling, especially by Desi's character. Nothing of note. I just wanted to put my limited take on it.
View More"The Long, Long Trailer" is an absolutely perfect movie: Lucy & Desi are so multi-talented, utterly timeless and endlessly enjoyable in every scene! The writing is clever and funny, the direction is flawless, the scenery and music are fantastic. The 1950s provided some of the absolute best in entertainment - not to mention, the most awesomely-designed cars, the coolest clothes, and the neatest home furnishings - all of which we see in this wonderful film. (It's unheard of today but classic duos like Lucy & Desi, Jackie Gleason & Art Carney, Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis, Tony Randall & Jack Klugman, Bud Abbott & Lou Costello, Stan Laurel & Oliver Hardy, Gilligan/Bob Denver & Skipper/Alan Hale, Jr., Andy Griffith & Don Knotts, were so talented that they could carry entire TV shows or films on their own!) We never tire of watching this movie - it's a perfect time capsule of the Fun & Fabulous '50s!
View MoreI know many many of you say towing a big trailer such as a 32' or 40' is impossible or hard to do with an old 125hp car or anything of the likes, But I have found out first hand through my grandfather, that it is entirely possible, the cars were made out of solid metal, not as heavy as the trailer but still a solid "brick", we used a 1958 caddy to tow a 40' detroiter that was made in about 1956, we had little problem hauling that thing, I mean other then not being able to really see anything behind or beside the trailer.To this day I personally own those 2 vehicles and regularly travel with them both, the engine of course needs matence every few hundred miles (just like in the movie), but she runs sound.
