Representations

• How is Amy Winehouse presented?

  Extremely sympathetic towards her, intended for audience to be constantly aligned with her
• How is Mitch Winehouse presented?

  -Family claims it’s a misrepresentation –problematic for objectivity

  -No direct commentary on how we should feel about him, but our feelings are deliberately influenced by the clips Kapadia chooses to use
• How is Blake Fielder-Civil presented?

  -Presented in entirely negative light –the catalyst of Amy’s destruction 

  - Was open an honest about the truth of his role in Amy’s life however, and was happy to sign the release form 
• How could Universal Music's presentation be subjective?

  The film was partly funded by Universal music so were deliberately presented in a neutral/good light
