Diana Ross in Academy Award-nominated performance.
Awesome Oscar-nominated performance by Diana Ross, who clearly deserved to win. She didn't.
DVD extras include deleted scenes and the featurette "Behind The
Blues
" about the making of the movie, with its uplifting, recent interview with Ross, who looks remarkably stunning. Suzanne dePasse also offers her memories of the making of the movie. The commentary track on the dvd by director Sidney J. Furie and Berry Gordy is informative and entertaining.
This DVD is extremely reasonably priced, so I won't complain too much about there being no booklet or insert when you open the DVD, it's just a blank space. But at the absolute bargain price, with the bonus footage of deleted scenes, making-of featurette, and commentary, this DVD is a must-have.
While the movie belongs to Diana Ross as Billie Holiday; Richard Pryor is very good, and Billy Dee Williams and Diana Ross have real chemistry in their scenes together.
A comment by Williams in the featurette in which he remarks that when he saw himself on screen in '
Lady
Sings
The Blues' that HE himself fell in love, is amusing, not to mention revealing. It's probably the first time an actor has ever 'outed' himself by jokingly confessing a gay crush- on himself!
The movie runs 143 minutes and is a stunning reminder of the great talent within Diana Ross- you can't, and won't want to, take your eyes off of her in this movie.

Lady Sings the Blues
This is a fantastic movie, Diana Ross shines, as does Billie Dee Williams.
Love the music, a tribute to "
Lady
Day"
top notch
This is one of my favorite movies. I just hate the fact that she couldn't shake the addiction. The music is excellent. I have the soundtrack also.
