Profiling legendary jazz trumpeter Tiny Davis and her partner of over 40 years, drummer-pianist Ruby Lucas, Tiny & Ruby: Hell Divin’ Women weaves together rare jazz recordings, live performances, vintage photographs, and narrative poetry by Cheryl Clarke. The film establishes an informal, intimate style in which 78-year-old Tiny demonstrates that her chops and humor are both quite intact. |
