Amy (2015)

The format of primarily home movies with a little narration is my least favorite music doc format so it loses some points there but the story itself is really good.

Amy (2015)

Fascinating character that made me look at her in a new light. Was also appeased that the Academy didn't just choose the populist choice for this year's best doc, although I haven't seen any of the other nominees.
