BACK TO BLACK tells the story of the life and music of Amy Winehouse, the incredibly powerful singer who died in 2011. Marisa Abela stars as Winehouse under the direction of Sam Taylor-Johnson (FIFTY SHADES OF GREY, A MILLION LITTLE PIECES).
We talked to the star and director about channeling Winehouse's utterly unique voice and style for the movie, and the challenges of making a film about a subject whose life was thoroughly, almost relentlessly documented during her fame.

BACK TO BLACK opens on May 17.
