The music has a crispy delicious retro-bop bounce, a quality that extends to Winehouse\u2019s vocals, which take the growling-cat stylings of jazz legends like Sarah Vaughan and Billie Holiday and kick them up into something playfully ferocious. Yet when you tune into the lyrics, they\u2019re as dark as midnight. \u201cRehab,\u201d the album\u2019s showpiece track, must surely be the jauntiest song ever recorded about an addict who turns the refusal to help herself into a stance of rock \u2018n\u2019 roll defiance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    At its best, \u201cBack to Black,\u201d the forthright and compelling new movie that\u2019s been made of Winehouse\u2019s life, takes that light\/dark balance and digs into the drama of it, making it sing. The film\u2019s snaky on-and-off power begins with the British actor Marisa Abela, whose lead performance nails Amy Winehouse in every look, mood, utterance, and musical expression. Ever since the trailers and clips from this movie dropped several months ago, there has been a pile-on of Internet sniping about the perceived wrongness of the casting. So let me say for the record: That\u2019s just nuts. Abela\u2019s Amy is an authentic force of nature, and every inch the Winehouse we know from her ecstatic, tormented, spilling-over-the-sides, saturation-coverage-by-the-<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a> image \u2014 and from the brilliant Oscar-winning documentary \u201cAmy\u201d (2015), which kicked off the Winehouse renaissance that this movie is the culmination of.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    We meet Amy in her relatively polite and decorous youth, when she\u2019s got a pierced upper lip but before she\u2019s found her trademark look (winged mascara, over-the-top beehive). A Jewish teenager from the Camden district of London, she\u2019s devoted to her Nan Cynthia (Lesley Manville), a former \u201950s nightclub singer from whom she\u2019ll ultimately lift that poufy period hairdo. Yet Amy is no more a \u201cnice Jewish girl\u201d than Lenny Bruce was the male version of same. From the start, she has an insolent, jutting-toothed, sensually hungry, the-girl-can\u2019t-help-it grin that expresses her raw <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>etite for life, as well as a tough working-class accent (\u201ctogether\u201d comes out as \u201ctogevuh\u201d) that signals she\u2019s not taking any prisoners.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    The film opens in 2002, when she\u2019s already an up-and-coming sensation in the London nightclub scene. At a get-together of relatives in the home of her doting father, Mitch (Eddie Marsan) \u2014 her parents are separated, and Amy still lives in a small bedroom in the home of her troubled mother \u2014 Amy and Mitch team up for a living-room duet on \u201cFly Me to the Moon,\u201d and we see the unironic virtuosity that\u2019s her ground floor as a singer.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    But the edge is there too. In an episode that provokes a chuckle, but also suggests the lack of boundaries that fuels her art, Amy attracts the interest of Nick Shymansky (Sam Buchanan), a potential manager, when she performs \u201cStronger Than Me,\u201d a song that basically disses her boyfriend as an emasculated wimp (in the initial meeting with Nick, the boyfriend learns that he\u2019s the dupe of the song and stalks out). Amy, at one point, says that she\u2019s not a feminist because she likes boys too much. But the truth is she\u2019s the incarnation of a new brand of womanly assertion, like Courtney Love reborn as a proudly dissolute jazz diva who has come through the looking glass of hip-hop. The measure of her feminism is that she does whatever she wants; she\u2019s drawn to extremes of hedonistic self-expression, whether it\u2019s how much she drinks, the tattoos she gets on a whim (far more of a novelty and a statement 20 years ago), or the fearless emulation of her jazz heroines. \u201cI\u2019m no fuckin\u2019 Spice Girl,\u201d she tells Nick. That would seem obvious, though it\u2019s a lesson she\u2019s going to keep proving even if it kills her.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Amy records her first album, \u201cFrank\u201d (2003), as a knowingly out-of-time jazz record. She keeps saying that she doesn\u2019t care about money. The album is named after her idol, Frank Sinatra (though the film never clues us into that), which means that she wants to do it her way. But that\u2019s easier said than done once you\u2019ve climbed onto the record-industry ladder. She meets with the executives, who have a few ideas based on the fact that the album wasn\u2019t very commercial. They\u2019d rather not release it in the U.S. (they want to wait for her follow-up album). They think she should stop playing the guitar onstage. Amy\u2019s reaction to all this is to tell them to fuck themselves, and to say: I need to <em>live<\/em> to write songs, so I\u2019m going to take a major break before I make my next album.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    What living turns out to be is falling for the man who\u2019ll be the love of her life, because he\u2019s as charged an addict as she is. The extended sequence in which Amy meets the sexy, indomitable Blake Fielder-Civil (Jack O\u2019Connell) at a pub is a bravura piece of mutual seduction in which the film\u2019s director, Sam Taylor-Johnson, shows off her chops. Blake is not an emasculated wimp; his confidence is complete, his suavity bordering on the toxic. Jack O\u2019Connell plays him as a kind of throwback \u2014 he\u2019s like a late-\u201960s British matinee idol (think James Fox or the Michael Caine of \u201cAlfie\u201d) playing a jock with a lightning brain. He knows Amy\u2019s record by heart; he also introduces her, on the jukebox, to the Shangri-Las\u2019 \u201cLeader of the Pack,\u201d lip-syncing to it with gender-blending glee.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    But here\u2019s where the movie starts to beckon us onto a rather forbidding track. These two are smitten, fused by an addictive narcissism that doesn\u2019t just run to sloshed flirting in the pub. Blake is into cocaine (and later, we learn, heroin). When he leaves a gig of Amy\u2019s in the middle of a song, all because he\u2019d rather do drugs than listen to her, she comes out into the street and ends up assaulting him. These two have an aggressive chemistry, but they\u2019re breaking up before they\u2019re getting started.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    She spins the album \u201cBack to Black\u201d out of how shattered he left her. And it\u2019s a sign of where the film\u2019s priorities lie that we see her recording the irresistibly heartbreak-hooked title track, yet there\u2019s little to no sense of how Winehouse\u2019s masterful second and last album was created (the producer Mark Ronson gets a name-drop, the producer Salaam Remi gets an image drop, and that\u2019s all). The album is a huge hit, making Amy a celebrity stalked by the paparazzi. And Blake takes the album\u2019s message of melancholy as a signal that she\u2019ll take him back. So he calls her, and they get married (basically a Vegas wedding in Miami Beach), and then they\u2019re breaking up all over again.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    \u201cSid and Nancy,\u201d I\u2019m afraid, this is not. We don\u2019t swoon over the dysfunctional passion, the spectacle of two lovelorn addicts who are destined to bring out the worst in each other. Yet without that burning romantic core, \u201cBack to Black\u201d plays out what feels like an authentic but rather clinical version of amour fou.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    What about the songs we love from \u201cBlack to Black\u201d? Abela\u2019s in-concert renditions of several Winehouse classics have a dilapidated splendor, and her performance of \u201cRehab\u201d at the 2008 Grammy Awards is perfection. The actor did all her own singing; she gets every soaring and scat-souled nuance. The songs are all in there, but not in a way that feels, at each moment, like they\u2019re expressing something so emotionally necessary that it becomes cathartic. Amy, contrary to her mythology, does end up in rehab. Near the end of her life, she gets clean, as Janis Joplin did. But that isn\u2019t enough to keep her from becoming a member of the cautionary club of pop stars who died at 27 (Janis, Jimi, Jim Morrison, Kurt Cobain). Her self-destruction is on full display in \u201cBack to Black.\u201d Yet the film presents it, even revels in it, without giving you the sense that it fully understands it. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
