26 күн бұрынA new movie dramatizes the life and music of British singer Amy Winehouse, the charismatic, multiple-Grammy-winner whose struggles with drugs and alcohol led to her death at the age of 27. Correspondent Seth Doane talks with director Sam Taylor-Johnson about capturing a complex life on film; and with actress Marisa Abela, who describes how she inhabited the role of Winehouse from the inside out.

I've never been one to mourn a celebrity, but I will say that I think losing Amy Winehouse is one of the greatest losses we've ever had in music. She was such a huge talent. So many of these artists/entertainers/performers today are a joke compared to her. I often think about how much great music from her we will never get to hear.

There are some stories that need to be told, especially when all we hear is the media's version. Good filmmakers are doing better and deeper homework so we can know the truth, or at least get closer and a better understanding of those lives that impact history.
@tammylewis2408 24 күн бұрын
Elvis is a great example of that homework. For example, the Graceland sets from the 50s to the 70s were accurate. and told Elvis' story throughout his life and career. Graceland was home to Elvis, where he could be himself with friends and family separate from the public persona. Baz Luhrmann is a stickler for detail, and he accomplished that. Next, there will be separate movies about the Beatles. I genuinely hope they do justice to John and George's legacies because many of us have seen Beatles movies told from the perspective of the ones who knew them, and not all of it represents an accurate and/or balanced picture of the Fab Four.

If only the movie Back to Black would have focused on Amy’s upbringing and wonderful lyric writing abilities and amazing vocals. They basically ruined Amy Winehouse character and talent by basing this movie on the blame game and alcoholism. As if we didn’t already know that. Can you imagine if the movie “Selena” would have been based only on her killer Fan Club Manager Yolanda Saldívar and Selena’s Father? It wouldn’t have done Selena’s character, persona and talent any justice. It’s an awful shame they couldn’t give Amy Winehouse peace and rest by at least making this Back to Black movie about her childhood , happier moments of her life and her music making talent.

Amy's favorite singers are Donny Hathaway & Sarah Vaughan. She sang like Dinah Washington. Her albums were Jazz & Neo-Soul, sprinkled with a little hip hop and R&B. Amy did remixes with Nas & Ghostface. Ask Mos Def who his favorite singer was. He said Amy Winehouse. She's a classically trained jazz singer, btw. You have no idea what you're talking about
