C L A U D E Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 For me, accepting her third Emmy award in 1967. By then she was The Queen of Comedy and The First Lady of Television, running Desilu Studios and about to star in her biggest movie hit and it showed, she looked the part from head to toe. So, what time period for you guys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C L A U D E Posted October 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Second runner up would be Her Highness in The Big Street, a real bitch from hell but she had every reason to be, with looks like that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikidiki Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 That's a really hard question to answer Claude because she had had her good points and bad points in all era's that I liked about her look! But if there was one movie that stands out as being my favourite time I loved her look and think she looked the "hottest" it would definitely be "Critic's Choice". Something about her style/hair/makeup in that movie was perfect and sexy! She just oozed sex appeal in that movie even when she was angry LOL (which she was pretty much throughout the whole movie) And thanks for asking this question because I just found the most FABULOUS new photo from Critic's Choice which I've now got as my signature!!!! See how hot she looks??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, THAT Steve Lawrence show was the best guest performance she ever did on someone else's show, that should definitely be brought out on dvd! And she performed Hey Look Me Over on that show too! And by the way, Critic's Choice, even though it's always been derided by the critics, has always been one of my all time fave movies of hers. Those brainy critics chose TAKEN 2 as their newest target for their venom but the public voted with their dollars and it grossed 50 million dollars plus this weekend, the public always becomes the ultimate critic when it matters most.

Taylor Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 I think she looks super sexay in the late 1930s/early 1940s. But she doesn't look too shabby either in the early to mid 1960s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But she doesn't look too shabby either in the early to mid 1960s. There was a sophisticated "LOOK" she adopted in that period, ever see that shot of her on a NY balcony in that high rise, maybe her own apartment there during Wildcat? In an Edith Head creation, a suit that fit her like a dream. Or at the World's Fair in the Danny Kaye outfit, regal supreme! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C L A U D E Posted October 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 I'd love to see it, as well.... She was on the Premiere of his short lived variety series. Lucy even took some flack for being on the premiere instead of his partner wife Eydie Gorme. The show was great from start to finish and although it's in black and white, it's still terrific to watch. I'm sure you've all seen that one clip from it of Lucy in a gown renminiscent of her Kennedy Center honors one showing him the filming process of the Marineland episode in the water with dolphins.

C L A U D E Posted October 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 LOL! (p.s - It's cold here too and we're half way through Spring - coldest October for a while!) Well, i'm happy to say that last winter we had a gay old time, almost no snow and cold, so we expected summer to be lousy and it was the single best summer i have ever seen in my entire life, always warm, always sunny, never rain, it was just amazing. As Lucy was amazingly gorgeous in the early forties with her new hubby at the Chatsworth ranchito. That picture in the back of a book, could it be TJW's Loving Lucy, that pic of a young Lucy in her garden, well, she is so stunning i would like to jump her bones right then and there, but i'm sure Desi sr took care of that.

I love how her makeup is.. how she delevers her lines with such control.. and just ooozes femininity! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love how her makeup is.. how she delevers her lines with such control.. and just ooozes femininity! Oh i know, this was the period of her big comeback to movie screens after the terrific Facts of Life, which had even garnered Oscar nominations. She was running a studio and her image had to go from slapstick comedy star to sophisticated first female head of a studio and boy did she manage that well HERE, in this movie. Of course this was more a talky type comedy romp and a perfect example of how she could do that type of humor. If only they had remembered that when she got down to doing Life with Lucy twenty years later. And yes, even though she maintained MOST of her looks for Yours nmine and ours five years later, here she was sexual napalm to any moviegoer.
