Trivia

Lucie Arnaz was very much outraged by the portrayal of her parents in this movie believing that the makers of it didn't really go into explaining the reasons behind the couple's tumultuous marriage. This prompted Arnaz and her husband, 'Laurince Luckinbill', to create the Emmy Award-winning, Lucy and Desi: A Home Movie, in 1993 which gave a lot of insight into the Ball-Arnaz marriage.
