"Lady Sings The Blues" tv spot

[reese]

I thought this was interesting because of two characters briefly seen circa :11. You can see Scatman Crothers [Big Ben] and Paulene Myers [Mrs. Edson] applauding Billie at Carnegie Hall.

I don't think this shot made the film. I do recall seeing other characters from Billie's life being shown at the concert but I don't recall these two. Her former john and her madame?

And the shot of her crying in all Black walking towards the window/door did not make the film, either. I'd like to see that full scene!
