Product Description
Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz live slaphappily ever after as newlyweds honeymooning in The Long Long Trailer breezily directed by Vincente Minnelli. They quickly find that the interior of a moving trailer is ideal for tossing a Caesar salad - and everything else. That backing up their 40-foot three-ton home is only a little more difficult than threading a needle wearing boxing gloves. And that trailer-park folks are neighborly sorts who turn the lovebirds' rig into the wrong wrong trailer by crashing the wedding night. Co-starring comedy pros Marjorie Main and Keenan Wynn (Ball's frequent co-star in her MGM days) this smash was filmed at the height of the I Love Lucy craze and is packed with the inventive sight gags and physical humor that made the series a TV landmark. If you like the Trailer you're going to love the movie!Running Time: 96 min.System Requirements:Run Time: 96 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY UPC: 012569679757 Manufacturer No: 67975

Besides making television history as the producers and stars of television's immensely popular I Love Lucy and The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour, Lucille Ball and her husband, Desi Arnaz, starred in three quite agreeable feature films. The second of these, 1954's The Long, Long Trailer, in gorgeous Technicolor and directed by Vincente Minnelli, is a somewhat allegorical tale of a newly married couple who invest in a 40-foot trailer as their first home--and immediately regret it. Well, at least Arnaz's character does; he's the one who has anxiety attacks over operating electric brakes while steering up and down one-lane, mountain roads. Sight gags are plentiful: a scene in which Ball tries to make beef stew, a Caesar salad, and cake in a wobbling, moving trailer is classic Lucy. But there are some genuine dramatic sequences in this handsome movie, too, and the stars rise to the occasion. --Tom Keogh

The Long, Long Trailer November 16, 2009
Shannon Hernandez (Odessa, Texas)
One of those classics you can't live without out if you love Lucy and Dez! I watched this movie with my mom as a child, and bought it for her for Christmas. She will probably watch this right before her annual 24hrs of A Christmas Story!
Loved it! November 16, 2009

Amy R. Robbins (Michigan)
This is a truly funny movie. It takes you back to a nicer time in the world and the chemistry and comedic timing between Lucy and Desi can not be denied. This movie is safe for kids to watch- adults, kids and in teens get to laugh and forget the hubbub of our time for over an hour. I would recommend this to anyone. If you Loved Lucy you will love this one. 5 BIG BRIGHT STARS! I have owned it for 1 month and have seen it 3 times. Love it!
Can't wait to see it again! October 21, 2009
Gypsy (Texas)
This is the funniest movie I have ever seen in my entire life, and I haven't seen it again since it first came out! I laugh aloud when I think about it, and I am looking forward to the DVD. The gypsy in me acquired an RV a few years ago, and every time I get frustrated with it I think about Lucy in that trailer, and my frustration turns to laughter.
