White Horse Pictures’ Nigel Sinclair And Jeanne Elfant Festa On Their Emmy Contender ‘Lucy And Desi’: “The Best Team Led By The Best Director”
15.08.2022 - 19:21 / deadline.com
For the third year in a row—and fourth in the last five—White Horse Pictures finds itself in the middle of the Emmy horse race.
In 2020, the White Horse production The Apollo, about the legendary performing arts venue in Harlem, earned Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Special. Last year, White Horse’s The Bee Gees: How Can You Mend a Broken Heart was nominated for six Emmys, winning one. This year it’s back in contention with Lucy and Desi, Amy Poehler’s documentary about Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz, which is nominated for half a dozen Emmys—more than any other documentary.
“I’m ecstatic,” says White Horse Pictures partner Jeanne Elfant Festa of the Emmy recognition. She’s a producer of the film, along with Poehler, Mark Monroe and White Horse co-founder and principal Nigel Sinclair. “It’s an honor, it’s a thrill. We have the best team led by the best director, only female director that was nominated [in the documentary special category].”
Prime Video released the documentary, which held its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival last January. The film reframes our understanding of Ball and Arnaz, illuminating the loving bond between the couple that endured even after their divorce in 1960.
“People just love rediscovering Lucille Ball. And obviously, the fact the Ricardos film [directed by Aaron Sorkin] came out in parallel, helped break the ground,” Sinclair notes. “But I think the nourishing story [is] this very interesting relationship between these two very complicated people… Lucy and Desi.”
The filmmakers were granted access to family archives maintained by Lucy and Desi’s daughter, Lucie Arnaz Luckinbill, voluminous materials which at that time were stored at Lucie’s home.
