I do believe it will be good and he seems very prepared but I dont think they should have gotten someone who is not a main stream, maybe a actor who shares the culture and roots of bob marley I think those movies subtitles and all brings such a connection of people outside the culture to connect and step into their world and culture through the art.I will be supporting this movie.

@corrynthiaiam9205 10 күн бұрын

Patois it's a very emotional language. And we dont pronouce h's most times. Ex: hear= "ear". So I think he did awesome for someone with an English accent!

@truthseeker1789 3 ай бұрын

I was so disappointed by this film that I saw yesterday in France. No soul, no transcendence. They just used Bob's name in vain to make a quick buck. Ziggy Marley has definitely no talent. They were supposed to be talking about a radical artist, a militant, a rebel, a genius... You don't see that in the film. We don't get into the complexity of the man he must have been, everything is smooth and doesn't have the accent of truth. And we certainly don't see how the CIA murdered Bob by offering him poisoned sneakers! The trailer has more emotion than the whole movie! Bad movie!

This is a very good interview. Makes me want to see the work. To be honest , I thought Kingsley is to nice of a ‘Actor’ to play Tuff Gong. 🤷🏽‍♀️ thinking nobody can really play him. Because the center of the character is more spiritual then intellectual. It’s bigger then emotion . What is moving him ? See the way he danced. Can u feel that ? 🇺🇸 🎬✍🏾🌏🎞🇯🇲🎤❤ Leah Tunkara
