Here's the lineup for this week's Lucille Ball movie night (times below are Pacific Time). I'm especially looking forward to seeing the musical-comedy "Du Barry Was a Lady," which was a Lucy landmark for several reasons: it was Lucy's first color feature, her first film for MGM (the premier motion picture studio in those days), her first time before the cameras with Red Skelton, and it was also for this movie that Lucy officially and permanently became a redhead. "The Facts of Life" was her first project after divorcing Desi and a big hit. "Yours, Mine and Ours" was one of her best-grossing films, and her first (and last) project with Henry Fonda since "The Big Street."
