But if you're going to do a documentary, do a documentary. This isn't Bohemian Rhapsody.

Hell, it isn't even Rocketman. It's a heroin junkie with a beehive and one good song.


I used to think this way before I watched the documentary "Amy". I would see the tabloid headlines, the cat eye makeup, the relationship drama, and I didn't understand the appeal.

Her personal life was an absolute disaster, but she was extremely talented as a jazz/r&b vocalist. Her dad was a POS opportunist on the level on Britney Spears.

The way that Tony Bennett respected her and enjoyed working with her spoke volumes.

see the movie didn't spin it like that at all. I knew her family must have been on the set cause they showed the drug use but implied drug use. Spun the motherhood angle quite a bit. Maybe that was the case. when she blew up she was gone. The movie was toned down alot from what I take after reading about her. and damn it was 2 hrs. UGGH
