KIDZ!

The Young People of the Lucyverse ~ Part 3

W.C. Fields famously warned performers never to work with children or animals. Luckily for us, Lucille Ball consistently disregarded his advice. Here’s a look at some of the young performers and characters of the Lucyverse.

“Lucy and the Drive-In Movie” (1969) ~ Jackie Berry is a married friend of Kim’s who has a newborn named Wendy. Her husband is said to be in the service. Jackie Berry uses her married name for the character. She ws the real-life wife of Ken Berry from 1960 to 1972, an actor championed by Lucille Ball.

“Lucy and Jack Benny’s Biography” (1970) ~ Lucy plays Jack’s mother and Michael Barbera plays Benny as a boy. Barbera was a child actor who was 12 years old at the time of filming. He accrued 18 screen credits before leaving the industry.

“Lucy Cuts Vincent’s Price” (1970) ~ Lucy says she previously talked on the phone to Mrs. Vincent Price when arranging entertainment for a big party the Price’s threw. In 1970, Vincent Price was married to costume designer Mary Grant (inset photo), although her name is never mentioned here. Making small talk on the telephone, Lucy asks about Little Vicki. This is a reference to the Price’s 8 year-old daughter, Victoria. Although Lucy visits their home, both characters remain off-screen.

“Lucy the Laundress” (1970) ~ Lucy smashes into a laundry truck. In order to pay for the repairs, she has to go to work at the laundry and encounters the owner’s two daughters Sue Chin Wong (left) and Linda Change Wong (right). Linda is played by Rosalind Chao who makes her screen debut with this episode. She created the role of Soon-Ye Klinger on “M*A*S*H” and “After M*A*S*H” but is perhaps best known for playing Keiko O'Brien on “Star Trek: The Next Generation” and “Deep Space Nine.” During that series she also filmed The Joy Luck Club. More recent credits include “Blackish,” “This is Us,” and “The Catch.” Heather Lee (Sue Chin Wong) makes her screen appearance in this episode. When Lucy meets the sisters, she greets them in an exaggerated and condescending Chinese accent. The girls look horrified and answer back in voices totally devoid of any Asian influence. To further the humor of Lucy’s backward thinking, the girls are eating hamburgers with ketchup, a typical American-style meal.

“Lucy and Ma Parker” (1970) ~ A criminal mastermind (Carole Cook) enlists two little people (Jerry Marin and Billy Curtis) to play her ‘children’. Milton (Marin) is dressed as ‘Little Mildred’ in the style of child star Shirley Temple. Curtis plays Herman Golab, who is dressed as Buster Brown.

“Lucy and the Italian Bombshell” (1971) ~ Harry’s former flame Donna Colucci (Kaye Ballard) is married and has a large brood of children: Ricardo, Anna Maria, Louisa, Luigi, Vincenzo, Dino, Lucrezia, Alfredo Jr., Margarito, Bruno, Rosa, and Frederico - all of whom appear uncredited.

“Lucy and Donny Osmond” (1972) ~ Lucy takes her pre-teen niece Patricia (Eve Plumb) to see her favorite singer, Donny Osmond. Plumb is probably best known as the middle daughter, Jan, on TV’s “The Brady Bunch” (1969-74). She filmed this episode simultaneously with “The Brady Bunch” which aired Friday nights on ABC. This is her only time acting with Lucille Ball. Coincidentally, Desi Arnaz Jr. made a guest-appearance on “The Brady Bunch” in 1970 where he was the ‘dream date’ of Jan’s sister Marcia (Maureen McCormick).

“Lucy and Her Prince Charming” (1972) ~ Harry hastily arranges a home wedding ceremony for Lucy and a Prince (Ricardo Montalban) - including a flower girl and a ring bearer - played by two uncredited young actors.

Mame (1974) ~ Lucille Ball plays Auntie Mame to orphaned Patrick Dennis, played by Bruce Dern as a child.

“Life With Lucy” (1986) ~ Lucy Barker and Curtis McGibbon (Gale Gordon) are grandparents to Becky and Kevin McGibbon. Becky is played by Jenny Lewis. Ten year-old Lewis appeared in all 13 episodes, only 8 of which were aired.

“Yes, Lucy was a bit rough around the edges, and yes, she constantly smoked cigarettes on the set. She would pull her face back with tape, sort of like a cheap face-lift.“ ~ JENNY LEWIS

Philip Amelio (Kevin McGibbon) made his screen debut on “Life With Lucy” at the age of 10. He played Stephen Baldwin’s younger self in the film Born on the Fourth of July (1989). He gave up acting by his early teensPhilip died in 2005 at the age of 27 due to a mis-diagnosed bacterial infection.

Kelli Martin (right) played Becky’s friend Patty in two episodes of the series. Born in 1975, she made her acting debut at age 7 and went on to be seen as an Emmy-nominated regular on “Life Goes On” (1989-93) and “Christy” (1994-95) in which she played the title character.

BONUS KIDZ!

“Lucy the Diamond Cutter” (1970) ~ German diamond cutter Gustav (Wally Cox) calls Kim and Craig “the Katzenjammer Kids.” The Katzenjammer Kids was a comic strip created by German immigrant Rudolph Dirks which appeared from 1897 to 2006. The strip featured twins Hans and Fritz, who rebelled against authority.

“Lucy and the Generation Gap” (1969) ~ In the final sequence of the musical episode set in outer space, the Carters sing “Kids” a song written by Lee Adams and Charles Strouse for the 1960 Broadway musical Bye Bye Birdie. The musical was filmed in 1963. This song is originally about the generation gap, so it requires the least lyrical changes. It was sung on stage and screen by Paul Lynde, playing the father of free-thinking kids obsessed with an Elvis-like rock and roll singer.

Robinson, Joan Bennett, and Dan Duryea had earlier appeared together in The Woman in the Window (1944), which was also directed by Lang. The movie was banned locally in cities such as New York, Milwaukee, and Atlanta, early in 1946 because of its dark plot and themes According to a Variety review, "Two stars (Robinson and Bennett) turn in top work to keep the interest high, and Dan Duryea's portrayal of the crafty and crooked opportunist whom Bennett loves is a standout in furthering the melodrama." Also according to Variety, the movie earned $2.5M, in '46. putting it in the top 60 grossing movies for the year. Cast Edward G. Robinson as Christopher "Chris" Cross Joan Bennett as Katherine "Kitty" March Dan Duryea as Johnny Prince Margaret Lindsay as Millie Ray Rosalind Ivan as Adele Cross Jess Barker as Damon Janeway Charles Kemper as Patch-eye Higgins Anita Sharp-Bolster as Mrs. Michaels (as Anita Bolster) Samuel S.

yesterday, i experienced a played down feeling of doing triple the work that men did, and getting less recognition for it. in the scheme of things, it doesn’t really matter, but it was my first time something like this happened. in my school, we do a thing called a math carnival where you answer math questions and if you get an answer right you get a ticket to be used later for raffles. me and the other girls in our group are really smart, we’re all in the highest classes and have all a’s, and the two boys in our group are average (THERE ISNT ANYTHING BAD ABOUT THAT). while we were doing these, every time me or a different girl got the correct answers, we would get one ticket. we'd all get it around the same time so we'd each get one, but the boys wouldnt get any since it was a competition. i observe other people a lot, and because of that i would always be watching the barker. every time the girls in the group got one ticket for getting it right, the barker would secretly slip the boys a stack of ten each for some reason. this happened a lot throughout the day, and idk why but it really pissed me off because they didnt even try. they would sit there talking to each other. once again, i understand that this isn’t a rosalind franklin scenario, and it does not matter, but i just wanted to tell someone.

p.s. all of the barkers that did this were men.

Edward G. Robinson and Joan Bennett in Scarlet Street (Fritz Lang, 1945)

Cast: Edward G. Robinson, Joan Bennett, Dan Duryea, Margaret Lindsay, Rosalind Ivan, Jess Barker, Charles Kemper, Anita Sharp Bolster, Samuel S. Hinds, Vladimir Sokoloff, Arthur Loft, Russell Hicks. Screenplay: Dudley Nichols, based on a novel by Georges de La Fouchardière and André Mouëzy-Éon. Cinematography: Milton R. Krasner. Art direction: Alexander Golitzen. Film editing: Arthur Hilton. Music: Hans J. Salter.

Fritz Lang's Scarlet Street was adapted by Dudley Nichols from the same novel that Jean Renoir had adapted for his 1931 film that retained the novel's title, La Chienne. Both films came at oddly significant points in their directors' careers: Renoir's was only his second talkie, but one in which he demonstrated his mastery of the relatively new medium by a creative use of ambient sound. Lang's was made just as World War II was ending -- a moment when it became possible for him to return to Europe, which he had fled to avoid Nazi persecution. Lang chose, however, to stay on in Hollywood for 12 more years, though he grew increasingly annoyed at the creative restrictions imposed on him by the big studios and Production Code censorship. In this context, Scarlet Street stands out as edgy and somewhat defiant. The Code prescribed a kind of lex talionis: any criminal act demands a punishment equivalent in kind and degree. But in Scarlet Street, Christopher Cross (Edward G. Robinson) gets away with not only fraud and theft but also murder -- a double murder, if you consider that the man wrongly accused of the murder goes to the electric chair for it. Cross is punished by homelessness and by auditory delusions of the voices of those who drove him to crime, but that's much less severe than the Code usually prescribed. There were those, of course, including censors in New York State, Milwaukee, and Atlanta, who noticed the Code's laxness and proceeded to ban the film on their own. Today, Scarlet Street is regarded as a classic, one of the premier examples of film noir at its darkest. It doesn't quite measure up to Renoir's version, perhaps because Renoir was freer in expressing his vision of the material than Lang was. Renoir's film had touches of humor and a gentler, more ironic ending, but the ending of Scarlet Street is entirely in keeping with the tone of the rest of the film, with its traces of unfettered Lang: for example, the shocking viciousness of Johnny Prince (Dan Duryea), who if you know how to decode the Code is clearly the pimp to the prostitute Kitty March (Joan Bennett). And Cross's behavior at the end of the film, derelict and delusional, echoes some of the frantic paranoia of Peter Lorre's child murderer in Lang's M (1931).

Scarlet Street

One of the pleasures in a great film noir is watching the characters slowly caught in a trap of their own making. The genre highlights some of the worst of human behavior with stupidity perhaps the most dangerous failing of them all. In Fritz Lang’s SCARLET STREET (1945, TCM), the naiveté of the three main characters — Edward G. Robinson’s downtrodden office worker, Joan Bennett’s thinly veiled prostitute and Dan Duryea’s pimp — proves their undoing. When Robinson rescues Bennett from a beating at Duryea’s hands, she mistakes the older man for a wealthy artist rather than the part-time painter he is. And he believes her claim to be an actress who needs money to keep her career going. She and Duryea try to fleece him for everything he doesn’t have. When they discover there’s a market for his American Primitive paintings (created for the film by John Decker), she signs her name to them and becomes a sensation. It’s inevitable that somebody will see through all the lies and one of the film’s chief pleasures lies in watching it happen. Robinson plays his role with impressive restraint and delicacy. A lesser actor would have had the scenery for lunch. Bennett and Duryea are deliciously low. It must have been a welcome change for her after all the delicate ingenues she had played in the 1930s. She also has an uncanny knack for revealing the lost little girl under her hoydenish exterior. That almost makes up for her sometimes strange line readings (girlfriend loves her pronouns) and inability to play a phone conversation as if there were a person speaking on the other end. Margaret Lindsay is Bennett’s straight-talking friend, Rosalind Ivan Robinson’s relentlessly shrewish wife and Jess Barker an art critic who takes Bennett to dinner and wants to take her to breakfast (nudge nudge wink wink).

Something weird happened tonight.

Ooooh we fked up. So Rosalind came back to my place and had a shower. Afterwards we chatted for a bit before she eventually asked... what was behind the bed sheet in the corner of my room? I pulled it aside and showed her.

She. Flipped. Out. Y’know that stairway to hell the cultists have been trying to summon? Well, here it is.

“WHAT THE FK?!”

“Is this bad?”

“THIS WHOLE TIME?!”

“Well, a few days anyway.”

“Do you have any idea what’s down there?! That is a direct opening to the gates of hell! All the worst parts of HP Lovecraft and Clive Barker combined. Why’re you even alive?!”

“That seems more of philosophical question...”

She grabbed me by my shirt collar and stared straight into my eyes. “I am dead serious. Just an open door in your bedroom to the harbingers of everlasting torment. A cage for creatures too foul to desecrate the Earth with their malevolence. The Labyrinth to the nine circles of Hell!”

“OK! OK! That obviously does not sound good.”

She released me and tentatively peeked down the stairway. “How is this even possible? How did it end up here of all places? And the stairs. Only Virgil could have done this.” She gasped. “You’re Virgil?!”

I laughed. “Ha. I am definitely not Virgil.”

“You’re Virgil!” she asserted.

“I swear I’m not! I don’t know anything about this!”

“It’s the only explainati...” she paused. There was a rustling coming from the cupboard under my sink. Rosalind grabbed an empty wine bottle from the coffee table and brandished it as a club. She positioned herself between me and the cupboard. “Stay back,” she commanded me and began inching towards the cupboard. She slowly put her hand on the handle, raised the bottle above her head, then swiftly flung open the door!

Gomez blinked up at her from the lower shelf.

I held my chest and sighed in relief. “Phew, it’s only Gomez.” Rosalind lowered her club. She looked puzzled.

“Gomez?” She knelt down to have a closer look.

I explained it grew from a sapling I rescued from the hole. Rosalind pinched her temple in frustration.

“All this time,” she repeated. “Virgil has been sitting in a coffee mug under your sink.”

“Ohhhhh, *that’s* Virgil!” I knelt beside Rosalind and spoke to the eye plant. “I’m sorry, Virgil. I’ve been calling you Gomez this whole time. What are your pronouns?”

“I’m pretty sure he can’t speak,” she said. Virgil nodded in agreement. “Looks like he couldn’t grow fully formed after getting plucked. Oh shit. Dante’s gonna be pissed.” She stood up and turned back towards the doorway. “He’s gonna be so pissed. We have to seal it. Or he’ll have your blood.”

“Hey, wait a minute!” I protested. “This wasn’t my fault!”

“You have no idea what you have gotten yourself in to. Dante might be a shit cultist but he isn’t playing games. How much clearer do I have to spell it out. This is a doorway to Hell! A conduit to every horror ever imagined and a limitless font of forbidden knowledge and heresy. In *your* bedroom. And you’ve reduced our only guide through it to an eye stalk!”

“Fine! What do we have to do?”

“I have to go back to camp.” She began collecting her things. “With any luck I can find the ritual to seal it in our community library. And that we can perform it with just two people. Otherwise, we’re gonna need reinforcements. Lock the door behind me and keep Virgil away from that doorway. I’ll be back as soon as I can. Don’t answer the door to anyone else.”

She’s been gone for hours now. I’ve moved Virgil to my bedside table on the opposite side of the room. He keeps looking between me and the doorway, as if asking me “What am I waiting for?”

What was I waiting for again?

FUNNY FACE LUCILLE BALL

January 30, 1952

On January 30, 1952, Lucille Ball appeared on the cover of People Today, volume 3, number 4.

People Today was an adult magazine founded in 1950. The first issue was published on June 20, 1950 and featured Faye Emerson on the cover. It was a bi-weekly pocket digest originally published by Weekly Publications, publisher of Newsweek. Purchased by Hillman Periodicals end of January 1951, the small 4 X 6 magazine fit perfectly in the breast pocket of a gentleman's suit coat or in a woman's pocket book. One of the unique characteristics of People Today was the attractive photos of beautiful, sexy women often scantily clothed on the front and back covers. Because of this, People Today soon became categorized as a risqué or cheesecake periodical. People Today featured models, celebrities, the elite, news you can use and people in the know. The magazine featured many popular models such as Marilyn Monroe, Jayne Mansfield, Elizabeth Taylor, June Blair, and Jean Carroll. The magazine was sold to P.T. Publications, Inc. and published its final issue in 1977. It is not associated with the tremendously popular People Magazine.

The inside article focuses on Lucille Ball’s role as star and vice-president (and chief worrier) of Desilu Productions Inc. The photograph on page 17 is from “The Séance” (ILL S1;E7) which aired on November 26, 1951.

Photos on page 18 are from:

“The Benefit” (ILL S1;E13) aired on January 7, 1952 (top)

“Men Are Messy” (ILL S1;E8) aired on December 3, 1951 (bottom)

Photos on page 19 are from:

“The Quiz Show” (ILL S1;E5) aired on November 12, 1951

“The Adagio” (ILL S1;E12) aired on December 31,1951

Lucille Ball is compared by the writer to the late Carole Lombard, who happened to be a personal friend of Lucy’s as well as a talented comic actress.

The article says that the “I Love Lucy” studio audience has been filled by such luminaries as Rosalind Russell, Eve Arden, Arlene Dahl, Lex Barker, Laraine Day, and her husband, baseball great Leo Durocher. The mentioned Desilu Durocher / Day TV project never came to pass.

The author implies that Bing Crosby is intending to be an audience member, and that perhaps the experience will coax him into trying television. Crosby had appeared on TV as a guest as early as 1948, but would not launch his own show until January 1954, in a one-off variety special.

The photograph on page 20 is from “Lucy is Jealous of Girl Singer” (ILL S1;E10) aired on December 17, 1951. Page 21 features a candid photo of Lucy, Desi and Little Lucie.

The date this magazine was published (January 30, 1952), Lucy and Desi were filming “Fred and Ethel Fight” (ILL S1;E22) at General Service Studios in Hollywood. The episode would air on March 20, 1952.

Exactly six months later, on June 30, 1952, Lucy was back on the cover of People Today, this time with Desi Arnaz. It was rare for a male to make the cover of People Today.
