Lady Sings the Blues (1972)

Mavis: The Singer

Quotes 

• The Singer : You didn't let none of them dikey broads get to you, did you?

• Piano Man : When're you coming back? Because we miss you, honest to God. I don't care, rich or poor, we miss you. But we're poor, we need you.

  The Singer : Yeah, right.

  Billie Holiday : Well, I ain't gonna be coming back. Unless you can get this piano and the club into my kitchen, because I'm gonna be cooking for that pretty nigger over there.
