Best Foot Forward
I came across these Vintage pics from LIFE about a play called "Best Foot Forward".
I tried a search and found this about a 1943 film version with Lucy. The basic premise of the film is that Lucille Ball is invited by a military cadet to attend their prom, which Lucille’s publicity manager is in favor of, hoping to get some positive publicity and jump-starting Lucy’s stalled career. This is complicated by the fact that the cadet hasn’t informed his girlfriend about this, and much of the first half of the movie deals with the boyfriend-girlfriend misunderstanding, which comes to a head at the prom, resulting in Lucille Ball’s gown being torn to shreds by souvenir hunters, which leads to the funniest part of the movie, with Lucy, the cadet, his girlfriend, his buddies, and their girlfriends hiding in the cadet’s closet in a madcap scene reminiscent of the Marx Brothers. The end of the film deals with Lucy getting the cadet out of trouble so that he can graduate and follow in his father’s footsteps to West Point. These pics seem to be when the date gets her dressed ripped off a teh military school prom resulting in a good enf series. |
