FIGHTING WITH FAMILY (2019) Grade: C+
Fun movie based on true events. I didn't realize how talented the cast was till I started to watch. Florence Pugh was great.

Steven Powell’s in-depth biography of the crime fiction writer James Ellroy which is very well constructed and extremely meaty.  He is able to dive down deep into Ellroy’s life from birth to where he is today, which includes the death of his mother, life with his father afterwards and the questionable living life in the streets and his trouble with crime before settling down to become the writer he is today.
 The beginning is very harrowing and very frank and honest which I truly applaud it for.  This is warts and all and does not shy away from some very difficult subject matter that is his life but as we move forward to his writing career we are probably getting the most in-depth character study about the man and his gift to the world.
 This is an excellent book and really hard to put into words a life that seems to outweigh the intense crime fiction that Ellroy produces.  His life in itself is his best seller.  Fascinating.

LUCY AND THE ANDREWS SISTERS
S2;E6 ~ October 27, 1969
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Directed by George Marshall ~ Written by Milt Josefsberg and Ray Singer
Synopsis
Patty Andrews of the Andrews Sisters comes to the Unique Employment Agency to find two performers to play her sisters in a musical revue. Naturally Lucy volunteers herself and Kim.  
Regular Cast
Lucille Ball (Lucy Carter), Gale Gordon (Harrison Otis Carter), Lucie Arnaz (Kim Carter), Desi Arnaz Jr. (Craig Carter)
Guest Cast
Tumblr media
Patty Andrews (Herself) and her sisters, Maxene and LaVerne, were one of the most successful women's singing groups, with 19 gold records and sales of nearly 100 million copies. The sisters began performing in the early 1930s when the Depression wiped out their father's business. In 1937, the sisters scored their first big hit with “Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen.”  In addition to “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy,” their best-known songs included “Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree” and “Rum and Coca Cola.” The trio officially broke up after the death of LaVerne in 1967, when a suitable replacement could not be found. Patty did 19 films, always as herself.  She even starred in a Broadway musical called Over Here! (1974).  This is her only appearance with Lucille Ball.  Patty Andrews died in 2013 at the age of 94.  
Tumblr media
John McLaren (Elroy Sherwood) was born in Alberta Canada in 1911, the same year as Lucille Ball.  He started his screen career in 1944.  This is his only time appearing with Lucille Ball.  
Sherwood is Harry's biggest client from Atlanta, Georgia.  Patty calls him “Ham hock”.  
Tumblr media
Gary Morton (Emcee) was married to Lucille Ball and was the Executive Producer of “Here's Lucy.”  This is his first of three on camera appearances on the series.  He also made four appearances on “The Lucy Show.”
Tumblr media
Joseph La Cava (Registrar, uncredited, background right) was born in 1908 in Paterson, New Jersey.  He played a Bartender on the S.S. Constitution in “Second Honeymoon” (ILL S5;E14).  He was also seen in the Lucille Ball films Yours, Mine and Ours (1968) and Mame (1974).  
Joan Carey (Audience Member, uncredited) was a background performer on “I Love Lucy,” “The Lucy Show,” and “Here’s Lucy.” She also served as Lucille Ball’s camera and lighting stand-in. 
Other uncredited background performers play the audience members at the fan club show. 
Tumblr media
LaVerne Andrews has passed away by this point and Maxene Andrews has a love/hate relationship with her remaining sister that will last until her death many years later. Although there are photos of the sisters on Patty’s piano, their first names are never spoken in the episode!  
Tumblr media
All the singing is prerecorded and lip-synched by the trio.  Ironically, the point of the show is that (due to the broken records), they are all singing live!  
Tumblr media
On the DVD extras for this episode, Lucie Arnaz notes that the studio audience's reaction was so overwhelming that it had to be edited down to keep the show within its broadcast time limits. Lucy herself gets entrance applause from the studio audience.  
Tumblr media
This episode was filmed on July 17, 1969, which was Lucie Arnaz’s 18th birthday. 
Lucy says she was the biggest movie fan in her town, which is something she has in common with Lucy Carmichael and Lucy Ricardo, who were also movie mad.  Lucy says she had a crush on William Powell, Clark Gable, Jimmy Stewart, and Melvin Krantz (her old boyfriend who took her to the movies).
Tumblr media
This is the first time we have seen Kim's bedroom. Kim has redecorated with black and white movie posters of Hollywood stars such as W.C. Fields, Clark Gable, Valentino, Oliver Hardy,  Betty Grable, James Dean, and the film Under Two Flags (1936).  
Lucy notes that it just cost her $90 for new wallpaper for Kim's room.
Tumblr media
When the kids go to the car to get posters of Tom Mix, Buster Keaton, and Valentino, Lucy finds a poster of Lucille Ball! She looks at it thoughtfully and then says “Meh” and puts it down.  As she leaves the room Lucy blows a kiss to Humphrey Bogart as the soundtrack plays “As Time Goes By” a song featured in Casablanca, one of Bogart's biggest hit films.  
Lucy also claims to be a fan of singing groups like the Mills Brothers, the Boswell Sisters, and the Andrews Sisters.
Given the clue that Patty's last name is Andrews, Lucy guesses that she is Julie Andrews.  Patty says “I wish!”, a joke about Julie's phenomenal success and Patty's waning popularity.  
Patty says that on a clear day she can see Paul Newman, who lives next door to her.  Unfortunately, she says she can also see his wife!  Newman's wife in 1969 was actress Joanne Woodward.
Tumblr media
Framed gold records of Andrews Sisters hits are framed on Patty’s wall: “Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen” (their first big hit), “South America Take it Away,” “Apple Blossom Time,” “Three Little Fishies,” and “Mairzy Doats”
Tumblr media
The Fan Club show consists of Lucy, Patty, and Lucie singing a medley of Andrews Sisters hits:
“Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen” by Jacob Jacobs and Sholom Secunda, originally written for a 1932 Yiddish language musical, I Would If I Could. It was a number one hit for the Andrews Sisters in 1938.  
“South America, Take it Away” was written by Harold Rome for the 1946 Broadway musical Call Me Mister.
Craig (as Bing Crosby) sings “Don't Fence Me In” by Cole Porter and Robert Fletcher, originally written for the unproduced musical film Adios, Argentina.
Craig and the trio sing “"Pistol Packin' Mama," a 1943 song with words written by Al Dexter to an American folk tune. 
"Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree (With Anyone Else but Me)" by Sam H. Stept, Lew Brown, and Charles Tobias.  The song was sung by the Andrews Sisters in the 1942 film Private Buckaroo.
“Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy” by Don Raye and Hughie Prince.  The song was sung by the Andrews Sisters in the 1941 film Buck Privates.
“Three Little Fishies” was written by Josephine Carringer, Bernice Idins, and Saxie Dowell.
“Pennsylvania Polka” by Zeke Manners was introduced by the Andrews Sisters in their 1942 film Give Out, Sisters. It was a number 4 hit on the charts for the group in 1939.  
"(I'll Be With You) In Apple Blossom Time" is by Albert Von Tilzer and Neville Fleeson in 1920. It was introduced by the Andrews Sisters in their 1941 film Buck Privates.
“Roll Out the Barrel” (also known as "The Barrel Polka" and “Beer Barrel Polka") is a song by the Czech musician Jaromír Vejvoda in 1927.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
During the poker game in “Be a Pal” (ILL S1;E2), Lucy calls her two queens ‘sisters.’  When Fred looks at his newly-dealt hand he quips “You can tell your two Andrews Sisters not to wait up for LaVerne.”  
Tumblr media
Sound Check! If the plan was to lip sync to the Andrews Sisters old records, why is there a band on hand to play the music at the last minute?
Tumblr media
Where The Floor Ends! As with many episodes, several times the camera pulls back and the concrete stage floor can be seen. This also happens in Kim’s bedroom.   
Tumblr media
“Lucy and the Andrews Sisters” rates 3 Paper Moons out of 5
Although not really an actress, Patty Andrews has a relaxed presence and good comic sense. The role of Mr. Sherwood is overplayed as a blustery ‘Colonel Sanders type’ which feels incongruous with the rest of the episode.  The musical portion is saved for the last five minutes.
