The View Tube are hosting a community film called ‘Ella Fitzgerald: Just One of Those Things’ on Wednesday 27 November 2019 starting at 5pm.

A summary provided by The View Tube:

Ella Fitzgerald was a 15 year old street kid when she won a talent contest in 1934 at the Apollo theatre in Harlem. Within months she was a star.

Ella Fitzgerald: Just One of Those Things follows her extraordinary journey over six decades as her sublime voice transforms the tragedies of her own life and the troubles of her times into joy. The film uses never-before-seen images and unheard interviews to bring Ella Fitzgerald to life and to tell the story of her music. A black woman who makes her career in the face of vile racism. Here is an Ella the world never knew – tough, thoughtful, funny, a dazzling musical innovator.
