It's 1959 in a seedy bar in Philadelphia, and Billie Holiday is giving one of her last performances interlaced with salty, often humorous, reminiscences to project a riveting portrait of the lady and her music 4 months before her death.
Good for watching alone, a rainy day, talking about after and a quick watch. Contains strong language and drug use.
Close in feeling, tone and story.
A different format. A familiar feeling.
