it's too bad she didn't win any awards when she was alive. The strange fruit of her labor still hangs.

I love Billy Holiday's songs. Though she had a sad life and tragic death. I think Diana Ross and Billy D. William was great in the movie, " Lady Sings The Blues

why didn't they explanation mention her being targetted by the FBI and her death handcuffed to a hospital bed, because of her politically fuelled rendition of 'Strange Fruit' which she continued to sing when told not to be the FBI. Billie was a Hero and an inspiration.
