关于此电影

From BAFTA Award-winning director Asif Kapadia (SENNA), AMY tells the incredible story of six-time Grammy-winner Amy Winehouse – in her own words. Featuring extensive unseen archival footage and previously unheard tracks, this strikingly modern, moving and vital film shines a light on the world we live in, in a way that very few can. A once-in-a-generation talent, Amy Winehouse was a musician that captured the world’s attention. A pure jazz artist in the most authentic sense – she wrote and sung from the heart using her musical gifts to analyze her own problems. The combination of her raw honesty and virtuosity resulted in some of the most unique and adored songs of the modern era. But her massive success resulted in relentless and invasive media attention, which coupled with Amy’s troubled relationships and precarious lifestyle, saw her life tragically begin to unravel, resulting in her untimely death in July 2011 at the age of 27.

I couldn't stand this Documentary. About a third into it I was so depressed with the train wreck of a life Amy Winehouse had that her great musical talent meant nothing to me. I already knew a lot about her and had read the book her father wrote. I knew about the scumbag boyfriend (ex-husband) and the alcohol/drugs/eating disorder. It wasn't just fame that destroyed her. It was EVERYTHING. I am just not sure what we were supposed to get out of this Documentary. Again I just found it all so disturbing. The truth is that Amy had problems starting in childhood. Obviously some serious mental health issues from early on. I just found it so hard to focus on her singing abilities with all this other crap going on. I would have preferred more singing and less drama. Hope this helps others. There is no question that extreme fame is almost impossible to live with. Just ask Michael Jackson. Oh you can't -- he's dead also. I will say that the British press (reporters, paparazzi, etc.) are detestable. Worst than the American press. We should already be learning the lesson that the media can literally destroy celebrities' reputations and lives.

As true as Amy was to her music, this documentary was to Amy. I can't imagine it having been any more raw, and unpretentious, than if Amy had actually made it herself.. (which she kind of did, when you think about it). There were moments when I was laughing out loud, and others when I was sobbing out loud. I was entranced and destroyed the whole 128 minutes. Twice. Her talent is so far beyond the reach of all the synthesised voices polluting today's airwaves. If this doc doesn't win multiple awards, I quit.

I thought it was a movie but it's actually a documentary with unseen footage of private recordings and real moments. No look-alike actress like I thought it would be. It was eye-opening, it was sad, it was raw and ugly and real. Rest in peace Amy. She could've been happy eventually but I guess the waiting gets tough for any of us and we look for ways to cope. Her parents to me are a huge disappointment, seriously. Love your kids, set boundaries, be tough when you need to, embrace them always no matter what.
