I just read part of The Lost Supreme, a book by Peter Benjaminson that engrossingly tells the real deal behind the woman Jennifer Hudson’s character in Dreamgirls was loosely based on.
I gotta get my hands on that book and read it in its entirety someday.
I came home and Googled to find out who raped Florence, yet there’s still much more info to be spelled out in the new book — based on eight hours worth of taped interviews with Florence the year before she died.
