‘The United States vs. Billie Holiday’ offers more in-depth look at the singer’s life than the ’72 biopic did or could
Anthony Eaton | Contributing Writer Billie Holiday
Billie Holiday lived a complicated life full of great extremes. And she lived it on her terms. And Andra Day, who plays Holiday in the new movie
The United States vs. Billie Holiday, shows us those extremes in a way we have not seen before.
This new film takes a more comprehensive look at at the complexity of Holiday’s life than did the 1972 biopic,
Lady Sings The Blues. This new film focuses on the last decades of Holiday’s life with a depth and richness that was lacking in the earlier movie, which starred Diana Ross in her big screen debut. The contrast between the two films is as striking as the complexity that was Billie Holiday’s life.
