“Back to Black,” the Amy Winehouse biopic directed by Sam Taylor-Johnson, brings the life of the neo-soul icon to the big screen nearly 13 years after her death. Marisa Abela stars as Winehouse, charting the singer-songwriter’s rise to fame, the ill-fated romance that inspired much of her work and her struggles with alcoholism, drug addiction and bulimia. Featuring a cast that might make you do a double take, the film stars Abela alongside Jack O’Connell, Lesley Manville, Ansu Kabia and more.
“Sherlock Holmes” and “The World’s End” actor Eddie Marsan, 55, takes on the role of the family patriarch. Janis Winehouse-Collins/Juliet Cowan Janis Winehouse-Collins, mother of the “Rehab” singer, divorced Mitch when their daughter was just 9 years old. Though she navigated physical difficulties after being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2003, the former pharmacist always made a point of showing up for Amy’s big events. Belfast-born Juliet Cowan, 49, plays the role.
