Contains the most bizarre segment of any Lucy movie.  Colorful and dazzling to watch and somehow she shines.  She doesn't embarrass herself which is saying a lot considering what she's given to do.   Let's see Mary Tyler Moore, Irene Ryan, Inger Stevens, Shirley Booth or Patty Duke (63-64 Emmy Best Actress in a Comedy nominees bypassing Miss Ball) pull this off!  This movie sat on the shelf for a couple of years for some reason.   By the time of its release MGM had pretty much given up on Lucy, despite appearing in two semi-hits "Dubarry" and "Best Foot Forward" and as movie-stealing support in "Without Love" and "Easy to Wed", all except "Love" in glorious technicolor.
