The United States vs. Billie Holiday

"cant wait for this one looks excellent 🥳"

"A must watch if you're a fan of Billie Holiday. Very sad , she was so strong"

"Probably the best music biopic ever (til I saw this, it was Get On Up) of the most unique and brave voice to ever sing into a microphone. My head hurt as much as my heart from crying so hard"

"This movie is so moving and jaw dropping."

"What an amazingly beautiful film. The acting and music were terrific. I don't think this is a story that many people knew and now is a very important time to tell it. Highly recommend."

"This is a stunningly beautiful film, visually and musically. Though it is clear that Andra Day lifts the entire story here with an absolutely brilliant, transcendent performance, the entire cast is also just wonderful. This film has a few misses, but what is goes well it does really, really well. It’s a powerful examination of not only the life of a talented and complicated artist but of very present history in this country, a lesson in racist power and the lives destroyed because of that violence. We see how the music lives on beyond the life, and it is impactful to see what predates and sets up the context for the civil rights movement. So worth watching."

"I love this movie. It perfectly highlights why people say America is built on racism. Amazing biopic, would highly recommend."

"Great cast, terrible writing"

"It hurt to watch this movie... Poor Ms Holiday the pain she carried hurt my soul"

"Such a tragic story. On top of being a drug addict, being targeted by the government made her life so much harder. "
