Lucilla Morlacchi
Had it not been for "Il gattopardo", Luchino Visconti's 1963 masterpiece, Lucilla Marlocchi's career in the cinema would have been negligible. But as Concetta, Prince's Salina's sensitive but unhappy daughter, she proved how good she could be. Unfortunately for film lovers that was to be only a flash in the pan. In actual fact, Morlacchi's real mission has always been the theater, not the movies. She debuted in 1958, at the age of twenty-two, immediately after drama school, in George Bernard Shaw's "Major Barbara" (Il Maggiore Barbara). Fifty years later you still find her treading the boards, starring in "Il Dubbio", the Italian version of John Patrick Shanley's "Doubt". In between she had been awarded the San Genesio Prize for her exceptional performance in Anton Chekhov's "The Cherry-tree", directed by Luchino Visconti, the same man who had given her her best part on the silver screen Her achievements on the stage, whether in classics or in contemporary plays, were prolonged by several television adaptations of famous plays by Carlo Goldoni, James Joyce, Albert Camus, Molière and others.

Lucille Ball
The woman who will always be remembered as the crazy, accident-prone, lovable Lucy Ricardo was born Lucille Desiree Ball on August 6, 1911 in Jamestown, New York. Her father died before she was four, and her mother worked several jobs, so she and her younger brother were raised by their grandparents. Always willing to take responsibility for her brother and young cousins, she was a restless teenager who yearned to "make some noise". She entered a dramatic school in New York City, but while her classmate Bette Davis received all the raves, she was sent home; "too shy". She found some work modeling for Hattie Carnegie's and, in 1933, she was chosen to be a "Goldwyn Girl" and appear in the film Roman Scandals (1933). She was put under contract to RKO Radio Pictures and several small roles, including one in Top Hat (1935), followed. Eventually, she received starring roles in B-pictures and, occasionally, a good role in an A-picture, like in Stage Door (1937) or The Big Street (1942). While filming Too Many Girls (1940), she met and fell madly in love with a young Cuban actor-musician named Desi Arnaz. Despite different personalities, lifestyles, religions and ages (he was six years younger), he fell hard, too, and after a passionate romance, they eloped and were married in November 1940. Lucy soon switched to Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, where she got better roles in films such as Du Barry Was a Lady (1943); Best Foot Forward (1943) and the Katharine Hepburn-Spencer Tracy vehicle Without Love (1945). In 1948, she took a starring role in the radio comedy "My Favorite Husband", in which she played the scatterbrained wife of a Midwestern banker. In 1950, CBS came knocking with the offer of turning it into a television series. After convincing the network brass to let Desi play her husband and to sign over the rights to and creative control over the series to them, work began on the most popular and universally beloved sitcom of all time. With I Love Lucy (1951), she and Desi promoted the 3-camera technique now the standard in filming sitcoms using 35mm film (the earliest known example of the 3-camera technique is the first Russian feature film, "Defence of Sevastopol" in 1911). Desi syndicated I Love Lucy. Lucille Desiree Ball was the first woman to own her own studio as the head of Desilu Productions. Lucille Ball died at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, age 77, of an acute aortic aneurysm on April 26, 1989 in Los Angeles, CA.

Lucille Benson
Lucille Benson was a plump, distinctive, and marvelously quirky character actress with a heavy down-home Southern accent who portrayed an offbeat and enjoyable array of colorful supporting dotty old lady roles in both films and TV shows alike. Benson was born on July 17, 1914 in Scottsboro, Alabama. She was adopted and raised by her aunt after her mother died of tuberculosis. Lucille graduated from Jackson County High School, where she was valedictorian and president of her class.

She made her film debut in the 1959 feature The Fugitive Kind (1960). Lucille was memorably funny and spirited as the flaky lady at the Snakerama in Steven Spielberg's terrific made-for-TV thriller classic Duel (1971) She later parodied this particular part in the hilariously raucous 1941 (1979). Benson gave a splendidly creepy and delightful performance as wacky fleabag hotel owner Aunt Martha in Paul Bartel's deliciously perverse horror exploitation oddity Private Parts (1972). Other noteworthy film roles include tough lifer prison inmate Billie in Women in Chains (1972), Billy Pilgrim's mother in Slaughterhouse-Five (1972), the eccentric Janet Poole in The Devil's Daughter (1973), stern, but friendly whorehouse madam Peg in Concrete Cowboys (1979), and the doddery Ms. Elrod in Halloween II (1981).
