Sam Taylor-Johnson | 2024 | UK | 2h2m | English language with English subtitles
BACK TO BLACK is film #5 in FOMO Secret Cinema's week-long Music Film Fest
BACK TO BLACK revisits the rise of Amy Winehouse, tracing how a singular voice reshaped modern soul while carrying the weight of sudden fame. The film centers on creation rather than spectacle, focusing on the fragile space where private emotion becomes public sound.
Winehouse’s songwriting appears as lived experience converted into melody. Relationships, addiction, and media pressure form a tightening circle around an artist still trying to protect her sense of self. Taylor-Johnson emphasizes intimacy, grounding the story in moments of vulnerability that feed the music.
The film becomes a portrait of talent under scrutiny. It examines how celebrity amplifies both love and damage, leaving the songs as the most durable record of a life lived at maximum volume.
