This is one of my favorite films of all time. If you have the chance to see it, make sure you do! Gotta love that 8,000 foot mountain! I love Lucy....and I always will!

Great fun for the whole family. Brings back memories in every sense of the movie. Lucy and Desi are great fun to watch.

This Movie is just great! It has so many laughs and funny adventures, it's like a lost episode from I Love Lucy, and i just dont see how its not even more of a classic than it already is! I highly recomend this movie to anyone who likes I Love Lucy, Slapstick Comedy, or just plain classic Comedy!

I have rented this movie about six times from my local video sore, and i can find it anywhere else, Im so glad i finally found it here!

I recently bought this, used, from a co-worker - the best $8.00 I've spent in a long time. I'd forgotten how laugh-out-loud funny it is but then I'd also forgotten that it was directed by Vincente Minelli, the master of domestic comedy. Has anyone else noticed the split second timing of certain scenes in Minelli movies when everyone is talking at once but the viewer doesn't miss a word?

Get this movie!! I enjoyed this movie so much and I think everyone needs to get this spectacular Lucille Ball-Desi Arnaz classic. This great couple made this movie in 1954 with director Vincente Minnelli; and then two years later in 1956, they made another Lucille Ball treasure *Forever Darling* (director Alaxander Hall).

Tracy (Lucille Ball) and Nicky (Desi Arnaz) are going to get married. Tracy thinks that they should get a trailer as a home instead of staying in 'stale hotels' and 'grubby-furnished rooms'. Nicky goes along with the idea....but he starts to doubt the idea after the trailer costs $5,343 and then they have to buy a new car to pull it. But they get married and then start out on their honeymoon. At first the trip is enjoyable and they have a wonderful time. But just one of Tracy's suggestions and they are in big trouble. Every turn they make seems to lead to trouble (similar circumstance to *Forever Darling*). And all of this trouble leads to a posible divorce!! (I assure you that everything turns out okay.)

The movie is so funny; you will be rolling on the floor as you watch Lucille try to make eggs on a crooked trailer and Desi pull this 50 foot thing around. You can't watch this movie once. Only Lucy could have made this movie a movie. So if you are a Lucy fan, you need to get this ultimate Lucy-movie. It will give you many hours of fun for the WHOLE family!! will

In the year 1954, Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz, the world's numder one comedy-couple made this great movie: The Long, Long Trailer. It recieved great reviews then and if you keep reading you will see that it still does.

Tracy-Lucille Ball, and Nicky-Desi Arnaz are going to get married. Tracy comes up with the idea of getting a trailer because Nicky's work takes him many places. So they buy a 40 ft. long trailer to go around with Nicky as he worked. They go on many adventures and they learn the value of forgiveness.

This movie is a great over all; Lucy is in it-how could it not be!. I asure you that even if you aren't a Lucille Ball fan, you will like this movie. And if you are, you'll enjoy it that much better. It is hard to pull away from it.

One of my all-time favorite movies! I am a huge fan of "I Love Lucy" and never tire of seeing this hilarious comedy starring Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz. Not only is the story line hilarious but it is a treat to watch this movie in glorious technicolor. We had the pleasure of seeing this film on the "big screen" last summer at an old renovated theater here in Birmingham. It was wonderful! If you want a couple of hours of clean, funny entertainment then I highly recommend this movie!

THE LONG LONG TRAILER is truly a comedy classic, much like the I LOVE LUCY tv series, where Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz borrow heavily from their TV personas. This film was the biggest money-making comedy of the year and they went on to star in another film 2 years later (FOREVER DARLING). Highly recommended for I LOVE LUCY fans, which basically means EVERYONE!

My husband and I travel in our rv and we found this video on our travels. I just had to have my own copy. I am British and, although we did get 'I Love Lucy' in England, I hadn't heard of this wonderful film. We also spent our honeymoon in our rv and I must say that some of the things in the film also happened to us. We just laughed so much.

A fun film for the whole family to enjoy. Parents need not worry about kids seeing this one. Lucy & Desi play newlywed couple Nicholas (Nicky) & Tacy Callini. Nicky's career will be taking him far away from home a good deal of the time, so Tacy decides that instead of a house, they need a luxury trailer to haul along to each job site. After some initial reservations on Nicky's part, he agrees to buy a monstrous, 40-ft trailer home to accomodate Tacy's wishes. Everything starts out well enough until a series of mishaps incur and almost drive the couple out of their minds. Some great slapstick in a cute film, especially when Tacy tries to make a fancy dinner in the trailer while Nicky is hauling it over some bumpy terrain. Lucy & Desi were at the height of their popularity when they made this film, thanks to "I Love Lucy". The film is not as zany as the t.v. show and the characters are more subdued, but it's great fun none-the-less. And it's also nice that Lucy's looks are put to advantage in full Technicolor.
