Lucy and Desi

This was such a great film! Amy Poehler did an amazing job! It was very heart-felt and touching and just altogether a wonderful picture. It truly enraptures the lives of Lucy & Desi together and separate. If you are a Lucy fan, this is a must-see! It was much better than "Being the Ricardos". I know they are two different kinds of films, but, man, this one blows it out of the water. I could watch thus again and again. "'I Love Lucy' was never just a title."

Lucille Ball became one of TV's early icons after a middling film career; her show 'I Love Lucy' with her real life husband was the biggest hit of its era, but their story is much more than that. This energetic often moving and interesting documentary is well worth watching for nostalgia value as well as well as many insights into TV history and the influences felt even now.

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.

Sure, nothing much too new here, but it had a really lovely and memory invoking feel. I was born about the time their show started. Grew up on all of it. I didn't like Being the Ricardos at all. It felt dark and sad and just not pleasant. It seemed to make them both not nice folks and even their love for each other was tainted.

Thanks Amy Poehler for putting together a real tribute to them. I appreciate it.

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.
