Review:

Singer-songwriter Amy Winehouse died in 2011, succumbing to alcohol poisoning after a tumultuous life that saw her battle addiction as well as achieve incredible success in the music industry. ‘Rehab’ and ‘Valerie’ are but two of her songs that will remain in the public consciousness forever. This documentary takes a look at Winehouse’s life, highlighting the highs and lows, relating the tale through archive footage and interviews with those who knew her best. We are presented with a bittersweet tale, an intriguing documentary that shows us the dark aspects of her life and how they affected one of the greatest talents of our time.
