Amy (2015)
Few artists blazed across the music world as intensely and, at times, as ruinously as Amy Winehouse, whose aching anthems about tortured love resonate with new generations of listeners. This film is an extraordinarily intimate and engrossing portrait of the British singer-songwriter that allows viewers to follow the entire trajectory of her life: from talented jazz singing prodigy to a fragile global superstar who, for various tragic reasons, is never quite able to get the help that she needs, until it is well too late. If you didn't adore Amy Winehouse already, this documentary will make you a sympathetic (and wistful) soul and spur you to hug your loved ones a bit more insistently. — Bret
