New on Blu-ray: THE LONG, LONG TRAILER (1953) Starring Lucille Ball & Desi Arnaz

BUY FROM AMAZON

Product Description: “They’re In The Movies NOW!” proclaimed M-G-M’s ads heralding the arrival on the big movie screen of America’s favorite television couple, Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz. Filmed during hiatus between seasons of their landmark CBS sitcom I LOVE LUCY, THE LONG, LONG TRAILER gave 1954 audiences a chance to see Lucy and Desi in a first-class comedy, based on a best-selling book under the inspired direction of the masterful Vincente Minnelli. M-G-M bought the screen rights to the 1951 Clinton Twiss novel which was adapted for the specific comedic gifts of Lucy & Desi by screenwriters Albert Hackett & Frances Goodrich. Instead of being Lucy & Ricky as on TV, their characters are Tacy and Nicky, newlyweds who begin their wedded bliss traveling with their not-so-mobile home, an enormous trailer. The studio’s trepidation over whether or not audiences would pay to see Lucy & Desi on the big screen were happily unfounded. The film was one of M-G-M’s biggest box office hits of 1954, and continues to be an evergreen favorite of audiences of all ages.

Cate Blanchett Joins Lucille Ball Biopic Written by Aaron Sorkin

That's quite a dream team. It has been reported that double Oscar winner Cate Blanchett has signed on to star as iconic comedian Lucille Ball in an upcoming biopic that will be written by Aaron Sorkin ("Steve Jobs", "The Social Network").

The film will chronicle Ball's 20-year marriage to Desi Arnaz, her co-star on the TV sitcom "I Love Lucy", which ended in divorce. The couple's two children, Lucy Arnaz Jr. and Desi Arnaz Jr. will serve as producers, which should indicate that everything will meet the family's approval.

Blanchett can be seen this year in the drama "Carol" which has sparked some serious awards buzz, and will co-star with Robert Redford in another biopic, "Truth". She is also working on an untitled Terence Malick project and has co-starred in the director's "Knight of Cups", which opens next year.
