this be truly one of the most intriguingly rich documentary i have ever see illuminate on the screen . i be fortunate enough to catch it at the seattle film festival a couple of year ago and have be look for the dvd ever since . where might this be . i know it receive several award and can not imagine why it have not be release yet . _this be a gem not to be lose . strange fruit very masterfully combines history and biography and and jazz music . it start with the simple premise of a song and strange fruit and which bronx born school teacher abel merepol write the lyric for and jazz diva billie holliday later make famous . although there be some conflict about whom should have rightfully receive credit for this song back in the day ( i will not reveal too much ) and the fact that the writer be jewish and the singer african american help u to understand the sensitivity of the lyric themselves a the story unfold a rich if previously unspoken tapestry of the american soul reveal to u via one of the great of all american contribution jazz music . this documentary be a powerful acknowledgment of the people and history that give u this legacy and to whom we owe much recognition . i think the viewer will find themselves glue to their seat a the behind the scene story of the 30 and 40 new york jazz scene or it venue unfolds with the music . i would love to see this on dvd . any info out there on a plan dvd release .
