C L A U D E Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Good God, could watch that all day. And i love what you added, makes it even better, if that's possible. I had forgotten that asshole kirk cameron is in this getting his just desserts for his moronic comments of late, Lucy making things right, from beyond the grave. LOL! Thanks for that, i don't miss the next scene that came after that where she had to redo the ending and is showing some timing issues at that age.

Irene Kampen Tripp Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 Watching this reminded me of when it was first aired. The night I saw this I had tears of joy streaming down my face and was clapping and laughing! I was so glad to see her in this number and thought she did a great job. Thanks for letting me see it again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By 'the next scene after that' do you mean where she ends with "Comedy is Bob Hope" and gets a standing o? Did she have to redo that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did she have to redo that? Yeah, i think so, i think i read that everybody had to give her ANOTHER standing o when she redid it, just the ending, i could be wrong though, if i am, Harry will let me know i'm sure.

Freddie2 Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 I think there might have been a break in the filming right between the time she sits on the big trunk and when she starts singing. If you watch there's a jump cut just before "So you think that it's fun to be funny" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you watch there's a jump cut just before "So you think that it's fun to be funny" It was done in several takes so that's to be expected.

I didn't know it was done in several takes (as discussed above) so that is a bit of a shame as it makes it all seem less spontaneous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you watch there's a jump cut just before "So you think that it's fun to be funny" Yeah, i know it was done it two parts, i have it on tape, there were film clips in between, but i thought she had to redo the number because of a flaw or error. There was also this one clip of her doing the rehearsal and stopping and screaming WHAT, ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME? Or words to that effect.

Freddie2 Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 Also it would be good to note (maybe for the chronology) that this song was written by Cy Coleman and Mr. Actors' Studio himself James Lipton. It received an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Achievement in Music and Lyrics in 1988 but lost to "The Sounds of Christmas" from a Julie Andrews special. Just an interesting tidbit I found.

C L A U D E Posted April 8, 2015 Report Share Posted April 8, 2015 I hope she wasn't being too serious Oh yes she was, wasn't this right before her heart attack, in '88? Poor thing was in shape but not in shape for a strenuous number like that, although she did incredibly well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, this has been mentioned before but certainly is a welcome RERUN, LOL! Funny that Lucy's other great numbers with Shirley MacLaine on HER special were also great hits from the great Cy Coleman, unfortunately a gary morton look alike, LOL!

Other than the very beginning, it seems seamless and I assumed it was done in one take other than that little bit. Didn't she pass out after doing this number?

She would never scream that in front of THAT audience, which was a who's who of Hollywood and all her contemporaries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
