Reclaiming Amy (2021 TV Movie)
4/10
Restoring Mitch
7 February 2022
This BBC documentary comes ten years after the death of Amy Winehouse, and five years after the Acadamy Awards-winning documentary Amy. Although the latter didn't set out to be overly caustic, it showed Amy's father Mitch in two unfavourable situations, once telling his daughter to that she must do a show and in another case bringing his own camera team. This documentary explicitly sets out to "set the balance straight" and tell the parents' story. I'm not sure it's the point of any documentary, especially one by a publicly financed broadcaster, to tell a one-sided story.
