BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Enter For A Chance To Win Passes To See LUCY AND DESI In San Francisco

Enter For A Chance To Win Passes To See LUCY AND DESI  On March 2nd at 7:00 PM in San Francisco.   From director Amy Poehler , LUCY AND DESI explores the unlikely partnership and enduring legacy of one of the most prolific power couples in entertainment history.

Desi –an immigrant from Cuba who lost everything in exile, became a band leader, and eventually a brilliant producer and technical pioneer. Lucille came from nothing and, with an unrivaled work ethic, built a career as a model, chorus girl and eventually as an actor in the studio system. She found her calling in comedy, first in radio.
