Review of Amy (2015) by Rajeev K — 16 Dec 2016

My review on the documentary AMY.

*Special entities would rather tend to burn out than fade away*.

1.I feel documentaries are made to be fetched ,understood about the characters . So, would like to try and express what I did understand about her.

:: She was sound but fragile, above but vulnerable,beautiful but cynical.

:: Her genuine nature emitted a precious love for her husband that she did cocaine - heroin and other prescriptions , just to level her husband and see him happy so she could be happy too...her voice, songs, lyrics were never out of her so that she could make money,fame and all.

:: BUT in turn ,she had to deal with fame, money,anxiety ,fear,addiction,pitch-black void ....only because she could sing the soul out of her voice.

:: She had suffered from eating disorder,alcohol addiction ,and anxiety depression .In her final days( which she obviously did not know) she called her best friend and said, "could we start all over again?".

Showed her music videos to her bodyguard and said if I had to take away my singing capability just to walk down the lane hassle free, I would.

And finally on July 23, 2011, a precious soul burned out rather than fading away and that soul had a body , named Amy Winehouse .

At the end of the film, it goes back to the starting shown parts where she smiles with a healthy face and unknown of the dark future she would face because of her immense talent.

Wrap up: " If she had lived, I would have said,slow down,you're too important .Life teaches you really how to live it if you can live long enough" - Tonny Bennet.

VERY STRONG , ONLY WATCH IT IF YOU WANT TO. NOT FOR EVERYONE . IT"S CONTAGIOUS AND EFFECTIVE.
