@weh63 Thank you for opening my eyes to a possibility that slipped past me in my enthusiasm for a candidate to play Horne. In "The Bodyguard," Houston proved herself one of the foremost dramatic actresses in the history of Hollywood, a black Greta Garbo, if you will. Yes, I would go to see such a biography brought to screen if Houston were to play Horne.

@busterxx1033 I would certainly hope that you had a camera to capture what you've just described. The Schomburg Library there in Harlem would just love such a photographic contribution.

@tanio12 Excellent insight, tanio12. But let's not "personalize" racism as a property of Lena Horne. Racism would've applied to any person of color, meaning Beverly Hills would've been equally hostile to Billy Eckstine, Billy Daniels Arthur Prysock, Herb Jeffries, Nat Cole, Dorothy Dandridge, Dr. Ralph Bunche, etc. Get my point. Historians tend to attach racism as a personal property of Lena Horne's when, in fact, she was victim owing to her "color."

@meboneme1 You do have a point on Keys! The Lena Horne "sultriness" is there. But let's remember it'll be a hard act to pull off. It'll just not be acting alone that'll carry the day. Oh, no. The package will have to be holistic. Quite frankly, meboneme, Horne is so unique I don't think anyone will be able to pull it off. Truly. Leslie Uggams would've been my choice were she younger. I personally will not see any characterization of Horne, meboneme. She was Mona Lisa in sepia!

@ccaammiiittoo1 NOT! NOT IN THE SAME LEAGUE AS LENA HORNE! ONLY Alicia keys is pretty and talented enough to TRY to play Ms. Horne!

@chsn09 If LENA HORNE is not black,then i'm not black! Whether she had a mixture of black/white,I bet white people did NOT consider her WHITE. If you have a DROP of black in you,you are black according to society.All of us are mixed with something,but "black" is what you are if you're not caucasian! GO FIGURE!! LENA HORNE WAS/IS BLACK!!
