Lucille Ball Film: Collection

Pre-Order for 6-19-2007 // GREAT new film collection!!!
This is a GREAT collection to own and a must have for any Lucy fan! With this collection you will receive 5 movies starring Lucille Ball's most popular film adaption. You will be amazed to see the true acting ability of Lucy here.

Some of the films here are somewhat of a opposite to Lucille Ball's role on "I Love Lucy" but some are very similar to "I Love Lucy" in my opinion. Take "The Big Street" for instance, High class Gloria (Lucille Ball) was a bit cruel and mean to a poor man named pinks who falls head over heels in love with her and will do anything to please her at the end she begins to fall for him too. A must see dramatic film!!

You will see Lucille Ball like you have never seen her before and these movies are not boring at all but they are really good interesting movies that you will not lose interest in. I am somewhat shy of old films and find them boring but I can watch anything with Lucille Ball and you will love these films!

LUCY, GLORIOUS LUCY................
For any Lucille Ball fan or true film buff, this 5 dvd set is a must. Of course, when Lucille was mixed with the character of Lucy an entity was created that will live on forever and never be replaced.

But this is Lucille Ball the actress and it is amazing to see her through all different phases of her career. With DANCE, GIRL DANCE she was a very famous B actress who got cast with the A list and had no idea what her future held.

THE BIG STREET is a 100 % dramatic Lucille fully letting loose. Beautiful, strong and just plain cruel - this role is a tour-de-force. The gossips try to say that Henry Fonda hated working with her and criticized her acting style but then why would he return to her blessed company in YOURS, MINE AND OURS.

Some dis CRITIC'S CHOICE but I find it very entertaining to see her portray a regular middle aged woman. I find the film very funny and her portayal very believable and so far removed from Lucy.

MAME - all I...

Four Out of Five Is Not Bad
The Lucille Ball Film Collection is a must have for every Lucy fan. There are four great films and one not so great film in this collection. "The Big Street" is Lucille Ball's finest dramatic performance. She really shines in this film co-starring Henry Fonda. I think her performance was Oscar worthy. "DuBarry Was A Lady" is a pure musical-comedy delight co-starring Red Skelton and Gene Kelly. Lucille Ball really looks outstanding with her red hair in this film. "Dance, Girl, Dance" another rare gem that co-starred Maureen O'Hara. Lucy really showed she could act in this film. It's amazing how she was never given the opportunity that other actresses in the 40's were given. My favorite movie of the bunch is "Mame", which is just a joyful, jubilant musical. This film was unjustly crucified by most critics, but Lucille Ball showed she could pull this movie off. People have rediscoverd this film and realize it's a very good old fashion movie musical. Lucy was nominated for a...
