Luvsbway Posted October 19, 2018 Report Share Posted October 19, 2018 Great story by comedy writer Ron Friedman about Desi and Orson Welles on this podcast. Story starts at 1:09:00 https://content.production.cdn.art19.com/episodes/ec49d8d1-d0f0-4981-9fbd-91e9ed8c8519/35fcaa7dbe1fc2fd63ad16ee77b12ab88a58fdae85b15c32acc9d605a72626f86b5c52bccd0a204247b3ae2455d11283963286be67d69fa8153217687aa9b2fb/GGACP-229-20180912-RonFriedman-FREE-FV01.mp3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvsbway Posted October 19, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2018 Here's the Wiki on this very interesting project. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fountain_of_Youth_(film) Desi talks about it in his book, but this quote doesn't exactly line up with the above story. "I never had any trouble with Orson," Arnaz wrote. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a point. Then there was that incident in Del Mar in the 60s where he got arrested for shooting at the kids on the beach. I'd love to know all the people he pulled a gun on.

The common denominator of both incidents was alcohol. He did have a temper, but I wonder if he would have pulled a gun on anyone while sober.
