Birthday remembrance - Eddie Albert #botd

😵🤪"𝐈 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥 𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐤!"🤪😵 Lucille Ball and Eddie Albert in the Columbia Pictures/Lloyd Bacon slapstick comedy The Fuller Brush Girl, 1950. After spending most of the previous decade under contract with MGM where they didn't quite know what to do with her and she was frequently cast in roles which failed to utilize her talents (Lucy later stated that she was stuck at MGM as "the drop gag girl", a glamorous lady who sauntered in, cracked a few sassy lines, and then sauntered out), The Fuller Brush Girl at Columbia allowed her to showcase what she excelled at and enjoyed doing the most: physical comedy. Having learned the tricks of the slapstick trade from her friend Buster Keaton and being a naturally gifted clown, the success of The Fuller Brush Girl led to her legendary and iconic CBS television sitcom I Love Lucy the following year, cementing her image for generations as "the Queen of Comedy".
