Seek out the Lucy and Desi home movies

They are are available for sale or elsewhere for free on the web on YouTube. When I saw the show originally on PBS, hosted and narrated by Lucie Arnaz, I was quite emotional. There are scenes in the 1940s and 50s in color as Lucy and Desi hosted parties and BBQs at their 5 acre ranch home out in the San Fernando Valley; just off Devonshire in Chatsworth, I think. The area is all occupied by tract homes now. The collection features Lucy and Desi having what appears to be a great time, wisecracking and messing around with other Hollywood types; alas all in silence.

The red

Lucy was always a true beauty in my mind, funny and sexy at the same time. This picture seems to show her sensitive side. A truly great photographic moment.
