Product Description

The Fuller Brush Girl (1950)

Director:

 Lloyd Bacon

Writer:

 Frank Tashlin

Stars:

 Lucille Ball, Eddie Albert, Carl Benton Reid 
 
Hot on the heels of such Red Skelton slapstick comedies as The Fuller Brush Man and The Yellow Cab Man came The Fuller Brush Girl, starring Lucille Ball in a fascinating dry run for her wacky "Lucy Ricardo" TV character. Unable to hold a job because of her tendency to get into trouble, Sally Elliot (Ball) hires on at the Fuller Brush company as a door-to-door cosmetics salesman. After several misadventures involving obnoxious children and snooty matrons, Sally finds herself in the middle of a murder scheme. With reluctant boyfriend Humphrey (Eddie Albert) in tow, Sally gets mixed up in one hilariously life-threatening situation after another, culminating in a prolonged chase sequence on board a tramp steamer. Highlights include Ball's outrageous striptease scene (to the tune of Rita Hayworth's "Put the Blame on Mame") and a choice cameo by Red Skelton as an all-too-cooperative customer. Most of the sight gags in Fuller Brush Girl were cooked up by former cartoon director Frank Tashlin, who'd also contributed to Fuller Brush Man

  1. Lots of Fun 4 Star Review

    Posted by on Dec 29th 2016

    This is no Academy Award winner, but, unlike many such winners, this is a GOOD, FUN, and wholly satisfying picture. Lucille Ball was seldom allowed to show her comic genius at Metro, but in this picture she sparks without missing a beat. It's a farce, so viewers can toss logic aside. Just sit back and enjoy the ride.
