leenorman Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 MY HEARTFELT THANKS, AS WELL, NEIL. MY MEMORY OF HER THREE VISITS TO ME NOW MAKE MORE SENSE. I COULD NOT UNDERSTAND WHY SHE CAME TO MY CHILDHOOD HOME, ALL THREE TIMES; GUESS SHE WANTED ME TO LISTEN TO HER AND KEEP WORKING ON THE CHRONOLOGY!!!!

C L A U D E Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 I don't get why he says she said she was one of those women who were raped unless Lucy meant one of those women who came into LA and were pounced upon by men pretending to be agents.

Luvsbway Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 I haven’t listened to this yet but according to the blog entry of his Lucy was talking about how these men would meet women at the station posing as agents and then rape them. Lucy never implied she was one of these people. She was pointing out the nieveness of wannabe actresses and how men prayed on them. She was grateful that Lela protected the young girls and not only taught them acting but how to take care of themselves. I think Lucy learned her toughness and street smarts in NYC so when she got to Hollywood she wasn’t a stupid kid off the turnip truck but one who could look out for herself. She clearly knew many girls who fell prey to men who took advantage of them one way or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annaleigh Posted January 15, 2015 Report Share Posted January 15, 2015 Lucie Arnaz had some things to say about this. She thought he was very insightful and wrote Lucy very well. Plus she isn't a fan of how "gay man" imitate her voice that way. She also doesn't know if Lucy was one of those girls, Lucie says she doubt she was. It is an assumption of Taylor, but maybe some things can be left unsaid to your children. Especially in those days. Then of course some facts were a bit jumbled.

The ages and years they met for one thing. Again, the guy is remembering something that happened when he was a kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking Lucille got all 'schooling' she needed in this department while still living in Celoron/Jamestown! Enough said! JK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Lucy was too tough and street smart to get raped IMO. I think Taylor was mistaken or misunderstood something. Other than that, very moving story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, i think he MISUNDERSTOOD "i was one of those girls" thinking she meant one of those girls who got raped when she probably just meant one of those girls who arrived in LA and was met by those guys pretending to be agents.
