		Their "seeing America" trip turns out to be a slapstick disaster, topped by Lucy's foolish decision to hide a heavy rock collection in the trailer; as Desi tries to maneuver a treacherous mountain road, the weighted-down home-on-wheels nearly loses its balance and almost tumbles off a cliff.
		Despite the fact that audiences could watch Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz in "I Love Lucy" for free each week on television, The Long, Long Trailer was a big hit at the box-office.

	The Long Long Trailer
		Vincente Minnelli's The Long Long Trailer (1954) is Lucille Ball and Desi Arnez's finest film collaboration.
		After the two are hitched -- figuratively and literally, they hitch up their trailer and begin what is envisioned at the start as a blissful cross country honeymoon.
		In a slapstick moment derived from -- and carried off more successfully in, Sullivan's Travels (1941) Tacy attempts to cook dinner as the trailer careens from side to side, spilling the contents of her baking and dishes everywhere.

	Comment - Long Long Trailer: How Minnelli Tamed Lucille Ball
		Like the Father of the Bride, Long, Long Trailer has a dark quality to it, dealing with middle-class anxieties, both material and emotional.
		The difference between the Father of the Bride films and Long, Long Trailer reflect the shifting relationship between Hollywood and television as competing entertainment industries in the early 1950s.
		Despite these touches, however, Long, Long Trailer is one of Minnelli's lowest concoctions, one of his few escapist comedies that's a concession to the mass public’s vulgar taste.

		The couple travels together pulling their trailer with a car really inadequate to pull the trailer in real life.
		When the trailer's brakes nearly overheat it is discovered that the wife likes to collect rocks; big heavy ones which are weighing down the trailer.
		That being that long trailers, and limited pulling capacity coupled with steep hills spell trouble to say the least.

		I mention these forgotten MGM starlets as they were elected to accompany the New Moon trailer shown here on its cross-country tour to promote The Long, Long Trailer, Metro’s 1954 comedy feature with Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz.
		It was one thing to pillory a Larry Parks or Gale Sondergaard, but this was the most beloved comedienne in the nation, and her public wasn’t about to accept an industry shutout for their Lucy.
		When Lucy and Desi attempt to pull their overloaded trailer up the side of a mountain, the thing assumes a Wages Of Fear level of tension, and shots of them hanging precariously at the edge of the abyss evoke Cary Grant’s later imperilment in North By Northwest, only Cary manages to get more laughs.

		Now their popularity is gaining strength with the introduction of a new generation of tillered aerial quints that combine the advantages of both configurations into a vehicle that's as versatile as it is long.

		For example, the short rear overhang on the trailer and the distributed three points of contact between the tractor-trailer combination and the ground give tillered apparatus good ground clearance and high angles of departure.
