Undeniable but I like to remember her happy... So unsure sitting down to that film but I guess thanks to all involved I think they went about it the right way... I think Marissa said Amy's death was a trauma? For the country and god knows there's no need for another one at this point.... For me at least ha thanks Marisa 🥰

Most of the reviews I read for this film commended Marisa Abela for her performance as Amy Winehouse but criticized the film overall because it focused far too much on her toxic marriage to her husband and not nearly enough on her artistic talent. Also, there was an issue with how her father was portrayed in the film as caring and loving when in reality he used her fame and notoriety to benefit himself.

I agree completely. Also in another interview she doesn't even know what she's talking about and rambles on about how she had to really hone in to y Amy Winehouse or eyeliner and things like that because maybe she was hiding behind a mask and was just trying to make something profound other nothing. She talks about not singing in public but then auditioning for a role where she's playing a singer but then says that she didn't know she was going to sing and then goes on to say how they could have used Amy but then she wanted to sing.. People are very strange sometimes.

@petra-c6p5 ай бұрын
This film feels like a cheap telenovela that revolves solely around one aspect of Amy's life - her love for Blake Fielder-Civil. However, I expect a musician biopic to tell me the development of the artist and their music. Amy Winehouse was funny, highly intelligent, brutally honest and, especially at an early age, a self-confident young woman who developed her own style and musical style. With Back to Black she achieved the fame she never wanted, and which was later responsible for her death, among other things. As a fan, you were horrified to see how her bulimia, the press, her drug and alcohol addiction and an environment that did not protect her but continued to exploit her (Mitch, her father, Raye Cosbert, her manager, Blake Fielder-Civil, her (Ex )-husband), drove her to her death. Amy Winehouse had a complicated personality that the film doesn't do justice to. Here Amy is shown as a self-absorbed and aggressive woman who doesn't evoke any sympathy from me. All of the characters are extremely one-dimensional; most of them don't even have any external resemblance to the living people. Except Mitch Winehouse, who in the film, unlike in real life, is always at her side. Marisa really tries to make the most of the role, but at no point did I buy Amy from her. Her vocal performance is also passable, it's a good thing Amy's music wasn't used, it would have been sacrilege. Important stages in Amy's life are simply left out (the recordings with Mark Ronson in New York of Back to Black - after all, the title of the film) or the Dap-Kings (her backing band in the USA). When she receives the Grammys, her acceptance speech simply omits her words: for my Blake, who is in jail. And so it goes on, it's twisted, times are changed, important events are misrepresented, e.g. it wasn't Blake who brought her to the girl groups, but Amy discovered her on her own, as did the iconic Beehive that came from her, and not, as in Portrayed in the film by her grandmother Cynthia. Blake's arrest took place in a different apartment, etc. Add to that the countless mistakes in the clothing and shoes, it all just seems cheap. The biggest outrage occurs at the end of the film: Amy had written Back to Black about Blake when he left her and she slipped into depression. Here it is presented as if the song had to do with her grandmother's death! The entire film shows how little respect or knowledge the producers have for Amy and her music. I can only recommend Asif Kapadia's film: Amy - The Girl behind the Name to everyone, which showed Amy as she was. There are also many good concerts of hers on KZbin such as the North Sea Jazz Festival (2004) or Dingle (2006).
@scratchydemus5 ай бұрын
Wow. I was wondering when the Mark Ronson part was coming. They left that out. Marisa didn't manage to capture Amy's essence initially but did so in the middle of the film when she got the beehive hair style. Her accent was questionable at times but she did a decent job playing Amy Winehouse 👏

Exploitation of a legacy, milking it for every cent they can, an actress that bears zero resemblance, a script written as laughably bad as most of the other recent biopics, deliberate manipulation of facts in her life story (you can guess who was behind this), and lastly, did I mention this is just an exploitative film to keep milking a dead singer's legacy barely 13 years since she died? It's been ONLY 13 years. No one asked for a biopic. No one needed one. This biopic obsession is another nail in Hollywood's coffin. Beating a dead horse.
