  1. "Rehab" is a song written and recorded by the English singer-songwriter #AmyWinehouse, from her second and final studio album #BackToBlack (2006). Produced by #MarkRonson, the lyrics are autobiographical and address Winehouse's refusal to enter a #rehabilitationClinic for #alcohol.

  2. Back to Black (2024) tries so hard to polish Amy Winehouse’s story that it ends up sanding away the truth. Instead of showing the messy brilliance, the creative grind, and the real struggles behind the music, the film gives us a sanitized myth.

  3. #Watched #BackToBlack (HBO, also on prime or apple in australia)
    a biopic about Amy Winehouse

    it was sad — it’s tomatometer rating of 35% makes sense in that it is not “entertaining”,
    but i must say it was really well made, and i’m glad i watched it

    i come from a family where there was/is a LOT of drinking
    and also a number of people who were not just “heavy drinkers” but hopelessly, dysfunctionally addicted.

    through dumb, random luck, i did not get the “grog package” of genes, and it was genuinely sad to see this play out on screen

    also, PS, the british press/ paparazzi are sociopathic parasites
