First I am a fan of Amy Whinehouse music. I thought from the first time I've heard one of her songs that she was very talented.
Like everyone, I saw her kind of self destruct, and then not too surprisingly she was suddenly gone.
First of all I don't really sympathize with druggies. I always feel it is really their choice. All of these things (despite doctors trying to profit form them by calling them a "disease") it's ultimately the users choice.
At least watching this movie I understand better. At least another point of view from all the bad press and jokes. Maybe other factors lead to her self destruction. If nothing else that bum drug addict self-centered looser husband Blake and then her looser father appeared to have a big effect on her destruction. They just aided in it by either joining in the drug use with her and/or wanted to capitalize and spend her money. If they really loved her more than their pathetic selves, things might have been different.
At any rate a nice documentary that tells it like it is/was and highlights a lot of her talent. Not overly exploitative like a lot of similar movies in this class.
