As an ardent fan i have waited a long time for something new to be screened about the Legend that is Bob Marley and this film most certainly did not disappoint.
I was fortunate enough to be at the London premiere and for 90 odd minutes i sat mesmerised watching never seen before footage of Bob and The Wailers going about their everyday lives.
This film is for die hard Reggae/Marley fans. Do not expect a beginning, a middle and an end, it is not that kind of film. It is a documentation of a period in time when a group of young men with a burning passion for music were starting out on their journey from humble beginnings to global success.
Esther Anderson, the then girlfriend of Mr Marley took the photographs and shot the film and together with Gian Godoy have produced one of the most definitive films ever made about the great man, a true insight into what he was really about.
How does this film differ and stand out from so many others that have been made about the same subject?. Quite simply, this one is not about Bob Marley the mega star, it is about Bob Marley the Man!.
One Love. Lisa Petros-Koumi.
