"Amy," a movie about award-winning artist Amy Winehouse, took home the Oscar for best documentary feature — but the late singer's father isn't celebrating the film's achievement.
After director Asif Kapadia took the stage with producer James Gay-Rees to accept the award, Mitch Winehouse expressed his feelings on Twitter.
In their speech, Kapadia and Gay-Rees said that their film showed "the world who she [Amy Winehouse] really was: a woman that was funny, intelligent, witty. Someone special."
Mitch Winehouse tells a different story. This isn't the first time he has spoken out against the film. Though the family initially gave their blessing to the film, after seeing the finished product, Mitch Winehouse told filmmakers he thought they were "a disgrace."
He doesn't appear to have changed his mind now that the film is an Academy Award winner.
Winehouse has also expressed concern that the documentary's portrayal of his daughter will tarnish her memory and impact her memorial charity, the Amy Winehouse Foundation, which helps young people struggling with drug and alcohol addiction.
