Around 1998 l saw some parts of this movie when they are in mountain on a narrow dangerous road,that all,now just came out in Brazil officially and what a comedy,the couple of I Love Lucy are really eccentric,in the way they experienced all kind of trouble with a huge trailer,really unusual and original picture on the road,a bit dated but still strong for all tastes and ages,highly recommended!!Resume:First watch: 2018 / How many: 1 / Source: DVD / Rating: 7.25

The Long Long Trailer has something for everyone as you watch in amazement of what was considered to be modern conveniences in 1953. The story of newlyweds traveling in their home on wheels is excellent, lovely and hilarious. For Lucy Ball and Desi Arnaz they shine as flirtatious yet humorous actors. Both actors are delightful to watch and have always been among my personal favorites to watch on TV. It is wonderful watching them in a full length comedy film. After their wedding, Tacy and Nicky have different opinions about where they should live as they begin their life together as man and wife, which creates a conflict. Nicky reminds Tacy of their budget for their first year of marriage and how they should save to buy a home. Tacy has her heart set on a Excelsier trailer home on wheels after seeing a trailer show. She talks Nicky into going $100 over budget and purchasing the trailer home of her dreams. He surprises his bride with the title to the 28 foot trailer as a wedding gift.

"The Long, Long Trailer" is an absolutely perfect movie: Lucy & Desi are so multi-talented, utterly timeless and endlessly enjoyable in every scene! The writing is clever and funny, the direction is flawless, the scenery and music are fantastic. The 1950s provided some of the absolute best in entertainment - not to mention, the most awesomely-designed cars, the coolest clothes, and the neatest home furnishings - all of which we see in this wonderful film. (It's unheard of today but classic duos like Lucy & Desi, Jackie Gleason & Art Carney, Dean Martin & Jerry Lewis, Tony Randall & Jack Klugman, Bud Abbott & Lou Costello, Stan Laurel & Oliver Hardy, Gilligan/Bob Denver & Skipper/Alan Hale, Jr., Andy Griffith & Don Knotts, were so talented that they could carry entire TV shows or films on their own!) We never tire of watching this movie - it's a perfect time capsule of the Fun & Fabulous '50s!

Newlyweds sink all their money into a home on wheels; it almost sinks their marriage. One can sense that Clinton Twiss' book was re-conceived with stars Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz in mind--it feels tailored to them both as a real-life couple and as their "I Love Lucy" counterparts the Ricardos. However, their characters here--Tacy and Nicky Collini--aren't as interesting or as dimensional as either the Arnazs or the Ricardos, and director Vincente Minnelli sets up laughs which never come. Some of the slapstick is indeed colorful or visually amusing, but these bickering sweethearts are awfully selfish, and no one they meet on their journey is able to lighten the load. Bits and pieces of it are sprightly, but this comedy about marital discord is far too prickly (and truthful) to yield big success as a rollicking romance on the open road. ** from ****
