Popcorn Culture - Review: Being the Ricardos

I Love Lucy was a game-changer for modern television and the syndicated sitcom, and also made its stars and creators Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz, abidingly beloved and famous. Being the Ricardos takes a (mostly true) peek into a particularly stressful week during the show's production, in which jobs, marriages, and friendships were all tested. Directed and written by Aaron Sorkin, and featuring Nicole Kidman and Javier Bardem, this movie has a lot of prestige going for it - but how does it hold up as a watching experience? We get into it.
