Amy, the heartbreaking documentary about late singer Amy Winehouse [1], is in theaters now, and a new trailer for the film is aiming to shed light on the highs and lows of her fame. While the movie is hard to watch for many reasons [2], there's little more haunting than seeing how badly Amy was treated by the press, especially once you realize how much she was struggling in her personal life [3] from substance abuse, a turbulent relationship, and an eating disorder.
Her ex-manager and longtime friend Nick Shymansky recalls that, "Suddenly it was cool to crack jokes about a bulimic's appearance, or her drug addictions." The saddest part? Throughout the film, you find out that Amy really didn't care about being a celebrity; she had "such an emotional relationship to music" and would have given the fame, press, and likely the accolades back in a heartbeat just to be able to sing [4]. Watch the clip above now, and look back on Amy's best moments here [5].
