Definitely NOT “about the music”
The year was 1972 and the challenge for director Sidney J. Furie was how to translate the biography of Billie Holliday into something that had “bite” for the mainstream.

He succeeded, in large part by his decision to make the story as much about the music as the personal travails of the famous singer.

At the time it seemed the obvious choice. Yet, flash forward 43 years and today the team behind this project, faced with the exact same choice, took the road less travelled.

It is not as if Queen L. does not have a set of pipes. After years of appearing in a string of “commodity” lifetime/lifestyle/X-mas movies — in parts which leveraged off her infectious natural sweetness — she stunned audiences worldwide with her performance of I KNOW WHERE I’ve BEEN in 2007.

(For the record, how perfect was she in that performance?? This reviewer has that song in every mix he owns and never gets tired of it. Her performance was so flawless that she could have won IDOL on that single track alone.)

This is a hard film to review. A lot of talent behind the camera, a lot of talent in front of the camera, and all of it hamstrung by the executive decision to downplay the music and focus on the strife.

Larger than life people have larger than life problems. But we already knew that. Personally, I missed the tunes.

Average
Well, i had very high expectations for this film after watching the trailer… but, it wasn’t quite so. It actually was a good movie, but not what i expected. It could have been an epic, like La Mome or Ray, but it just missed that opportunity.

The story is somewhat incoherent, maybe it’s the script, or just bad editing. There were some scenes that are short and take place in different times, so it becomes hard to follow and understand the story and the importance of those scenes. It’s a little bit confusing at times and because of that the film loses flow. That is basically the one major flaw in this movie.

Apart from that, the actors did a great job, i’ve never seen Queen Latifah like this, she was wonderful. The music was great of course. The costumes, the set – beautiful.

In conclusion, i wouldn’t call this a masterpiece, but it’s not bad, i would recommend watching it on a Friday night with your loved one maybe. The plot is interesting, the music is wonderful, it sets that 20’s mood and you’ll have a great time for sure.
