After much discussion and maligning, we are no longer just blindly hating on "Being the Ricardos" but trying to find what's to love in the 2+ hour glimpse into what is apparently the scariest week in the lives of Lucille Ball, Desi Arnaz, and the cast and crew of "I Love Lucy." It amounts to a lot of Nicole as Carol Radziwill as Lucy futzing with the flowers and moving the piano bench. The real highlights of the movie are the Mertzes--Nina Arianda and Oscar nominee JK Simmons shine as second bananas ripe for more screen time. And while much has been laid at Kidman's feet for a loosey goosey Lucy, Aaron Sorkin's writing and direction were not doing her any favors. We may not be singing many praises this week, but at least we can now say we saw it!Best Supporting Patreon: www.patreon.com/bsapodEmail: thebsapod@gmail.comTwitter: @bsapodColin DruckerTwitter: @colindruckerInstagram: @colindrucker_Nick KochanovTwitter: @nickkochanovInstagram: @nickkochanov

Episode 120: Nina Arianda - "Being the Ricardos" (2021)

Nina Arianda’s star has never shone brighter. Recreating the off-Broadway role that her made a name to watch, the actress returns to Broadway in "Venus in Fur" in what the New York Times called "the first, must see performance of the Broadway season." Downstage Center, with NY1’s Frank DiLella, sits down with Ms. Arianda to discuss, among other things, the acting process, family, her Tony nomination for "Born Yesterday", working in Woody Allen’s "Midnight in Paris", seeing Meryl Streep in "Mother Courage", theatre education, and her dream roles.
