About Amy winehouse interview

Amy is a 2015 British documentary film directed by Asif Kapadia and produced by James Gay-Rees. The film covers English singer-songwriter Amy Winehouse's life and her struggle with substance abuse, both before and after her career blossomed, and which eventually caused her death. In February 2015, a teaser trailer based on the life of Winehouse debuted at a pre-Grammys event. David Joseph, CEO of Universal Music UK, announced that the documentary titled Amy would be released later that year. He further stated: "About two years ago we decided to make a movie about her—her career and her life. It's a very complicated and tender movie. It tackles lots of things about family and media, fame, addiction, but most importantly, it captures the very heart of what she was about, which is an amazing person and a true musical genius." Amy premiered in the Midnight Screenings section of the 2015 Cannes Film Festival. Distributed by the Altitude and A24, it was released theatrically on 3 July 2015.
