@Nataliesgramma  Billie Holliday was a great singer.  Diana Ross did a wonderful job with pertraying her.  I saw this years ago and would like to see it again.

I just watched it yesterday.... for the umpteenth time.

Billy Dee, Billy Dee oh my goodness gracious but yes Diana Ross was really, really good.   Love me some Billie Holiday but such a sad life.

Great movie. Ms. Ross WAS Billie. I have, and still listen to the soundtrack. I probably have almost every album that Billie Holiday put out. I am a huge fan.
