Back to Black | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

Back to Black spends almost all its runtime focused on Winehouse and Fielder-Civil’s destructive romance, as if it were the only thing to have existed in the late singer’s life.

Back to Black tells a familiar story. ... But it still works, thanks ... to the dynamic central character, her knockout music, and the passionate performance of Marisa Abella, who plays – and sings as – Winehouse.

Their film is, like the media’s perception of Amy herself, often messy and even incoherent, but it does make the bare minimum in humanising this member of the 27 Club more than it easily could have.

If Winehouse was guilty of anything, it was terrible taste in men. Her meet cute with Blake Fielder ignores that Fielder is a sofa surfing, popped collar d-bag who doesn't know what the word "anachronistic" means. And he already has a girlfriend!
