I know Ms. Ball had a career as a showgirl… but i still thought it would have been better if shed fallen off that horse when she came round…
And i laughed at Andy and Myself during that 4:15 minute video… he is nothing if not QUIRKY, eh? I still have to wonder if he enjoyed the sandwich or not…
I love the Tessie Techicolor quasi-lesbo-bondage thing going on.
Now I know where Zefferelli got his Traviata ideas from.
Zeffirelli has always counted Warhol as a major influence.
LOLOLOLOLOL……..
Lucy looked positively uncomfortable, as though what would have made her happiest of all would have been to have launched into a VITAMEATAVEGAMIN commercial right there on the spot….or maybe just stompin on some grapes.
Andy eating a burger is not quite as interesting as Werner Herzog Eats His Shoe. And Andy’s hair makes him look like wzauscher in his Salome mop wig. And maybe Lucy looked so grouchy because she had the gobloots from the booshoo bird and her zorch was hurting. Or maybe she had a Communist meeting to get to right after the shoot.
Was that a Ziegfeld production of Elektra with Lucy as the Overseer? Crack that whip!
Now, now, ladies. Everyone should know that only Cieca gets to crack the whip on parterre box.
Lucy can be seen in “Roberta”, with Fred, Ginger, Irene Dunne, and Cary Grant’s “roommate” Randolph Scott. It was her 23rd movie since her debut in 1933, and she’s a platinum blond. By the time of Ziegfeld Follies, her entire look had been cemented in stone: the overarched, eternally surprised eyebrows, the lips. I think she’s exquisite, but she had no business being in musicals, although everyone did musicals in those days. Dubarry Was A lady was one of the most garish technicolor movies I’ve ever seen, with Lucy in shocking pink.
