• Amy Winehouse Documentary Breaks Film Records in the UK; Acclaim and Controversy

    Amy Winehouse is the name behind the second most-hyped documentary of the year thus far, and it paid off, creating the largest homeland opening weekend for a British documentary in history (the most-hyped doc has to be 'Montage of Heck,' the recently released film on Kurt Cobain). 'Amy,' directed by Asif Kapadia, brought in more than $800,000 in the UK. Good reviews and an expansion from 133 theaters to 200 will keep that number rising.
