Back to Black: the Amy Winehouse biopic was so bad I gasped in horror

Back to Black the Amy Winehouse biopic was so bad I gasped in horror
Beyond the moral problems, this take on the life of the tragic London singer is a poor, poor piece of filmmaking

Maybe not in 2024, but there will, in say 20 years’ time, be people whose first experience of Amy Winehouse is Back to Black. And this is a film that does not paint a nice or fair picture of her as a human, nor get across how special an artist she was. The final scene, in particular, with its completely and utterly baseless, sensationalist implications, made me physically gasp in horror.
