Archival footage and interviews with family and celebrities like Carol Burnett enhance the narrative. Some find it sentimental and lacking new insights, while others appreciate the fresh approach and comprehensive view of their lives and innovations.

I was too young to appreciate I Love Lucy and the comedic genius of Lucille Ball. She was also way ahead of her time marrying Cuban born Desi Arnaz who emigrated to America. I do remember my parents telling me "do not disturb" when the show was on as they ate their Swanson TV dinners on their tray tables. This documentary is obviously a love letter to Ms. Ball and understandably so as legends such as Bette Midler, Carol Burnett have learned a lot from her. There really was nothing that was not public knowledge about the couple but still a very enjoyable watch.
Even though the tempestuous and truly legendary relationship of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz has been covered extensively elsewhere, Amy Poehler leverages a treasure trove of archival footage and taped conversations with the subjects to produce an intensely personal history that comes across as a heartfelt homage to both their dedicated artistry and professional acumen. What really resonates the most is hearing their voices vividly describe episodes of their lives with such candor and a certain wistfulness that still makes their divorce still feel like a tragic inevitability 62 years later. All the more reason to love not only Lucy but Desi as well. It's very clear Amy does.
Amy Poehler delivers a masterful review of the rich, varied, fascinating history and story of this famous duo known as Lucy and Desi. Though it comes in the wake of the film, Being the Ricardos, it definitely presents new information and a fresh approach to a couple that's been the subject of many a documentary. Bravo, Amy.
Every time I watch a documentary on artists I love who passed away breaks me down to tears. Every. Single. Time. Considering how much I love Lucy and Desi and their show I should have seen it coming a mile away. Even the latest motion picture, Being the Ricardos, has done that to me as well. That says something.
Something that has to be said: that Lucy and Desi's story still resonates even after 60+ years after their divorce and 30+ years since their deaths - it's something that will always be in the memory of everyone who knew them, their work and their relationship. A love that never dies, even when the marriage falls apart - a true love will never end. And that's the point of life.
No one will live forever but the love of two people will continue on living in the children and many many millions of other people whose lives were touched by those two. Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz is a story for all ages and what they have created is immeasurable in terms of greatness.
I loved Lucy and Desi, the documentary, and I will love them for as long as I live.

Such a wonderful tribute with amazing footage and stories. I cried. Just watch!!! Amy killed it. Their story is complicated and filled with so much love and depth. I loved the book "Love, Lucy" and I feel like this did a great job of summing up the stories from Lucy's perspective as well as Desis. Ugh just so amazing!
