On a lighter note…

I promised some folks a link to this over dinner last night.

There’s no question in my mind that Lucille Ball was a smart and incredibly talented woman. But I have trouble visualizing her in a noir film. (It helps some that she’s apparently the secretary for the private eye character, rather than the femme fatale.)

(Here’s a link to the trailer on YouTube. Embedding is disabled.)

(I’d order it, but Amazon wants a little much for it, and I want In the Heat of the Night a little bit more at the moment. I’ve always liked the way Sidney Poitier delivers that line, “They call me Mister Tibbs!”)
