Lucy et Desi

This was a well put together documentary on both Lucy and Desi. I've seen lots of things about Lucille Ball so I was familiar with some of what was shared in this but I didn't know much about Desi and his life in Cuba or his start in the entertainment industry. I think it was great that their children were involved in the making of this. There were some surprises about them and great home footage. Anyone who wants to learn more about the both of them and have a look at what went on behind the scenes of "I love Lucy" then this is the documentary to watch.

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."

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!

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.

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.
