    Film #12: BACK TO BLACK A stunningly wrongheaded Amy Winehouse biopic that exists to abslve the people around her of their responsibility for exploiting her descent into addiction. If you ever wondered why people used to bring rotten fruit to the theater, watch this movie's last scene.

    In-flight movie bonanza: "Back to Black" Winehouse biopic. I was pleasantly surprised. Marisa Abela was amazingly good at the role. Yes, too focussed on the toxic romance with Blake, and not a deep movie, but it worked for me. As a dad to a young adult daughter, that relationship made me cry a bit.

    Plus a sequel was greenlighted which would touch upon his legal and drug issues later in life. Critics accepted Bohemian Rhapsody and Back to Black being “sanitized” biopics so why not this movie? Michael brought joy to millions of people worldwide and still is doing so 17 years after he passed.

    Changed my life. 'Back to Black' was the soundtrack to my second gay adolescence. As I stumbled through film school making all the life mistakes synonymous with your early 20's. The fact that we'll never get that hip-hop album she was gonna do with Mos Def and Blackstar!! R.I.L AMY the ICON!! ❤️

    Is there any biopic film that's actually good and a fair study of the character? I saw Back to Black recently, about Amy Winehouse, and it was horrifically bad. And, has there been a good biopic of a queer person that hasn't been made palatable & imagined for a straight audience?

    I was huge Amy winehouse fan. Back to Black is one of my favorite albums ever. Any movie that is going to tell her story that doesn’t acknowledge demons & the part her husband played in encouraging them isn’t worth watching. Amy was never proud of her issues, she wanted to be better. The media
