About Billie

“She sang the truth, she paid the price”

Billie is a 2020 English documentary film directed by James Erskine. It runs 96 minutes and is rated NR. The cast is led by Billie Holiday, Tony Bennett and Count Basie. It holds an IMDb rating of 6.9.

‘Lady Day’ was one of the greatest jazz vocalists the world ever heard. In 1971, journalist Linda Lipnack Kuehl set out to write the definitive biography of Billie Holiday. Before her mysterious death in 1978, Lipnack Kuehl had taped over 200 hours of interviews. The tapes have never been heard. Now they form the basis of an atmospheric, multi-layered documentary that captures the many complex facets of a proud black woman, violent drug addict, loyal friend, vindictive lover and unforgettable singer of ‘God Bless The Child’, ‘Saddest Tale’ and the haunting ‘Strange Fruit’.
