Marley
Place:
Library Hall The acclaimed 2012 documentary from Kevin MacDonald
Bob Marley's universal appeal, impact on music history and role as a social and political prophet is both unique and unparalleled. Marley is the definitive life story of the musician, revolutionary, and legend, from his early days to his rise to international superstardom. Made with the support of the Marley family, the film features rare footage, incredible performances and revelatory interviews with the people that knew him best.
From Academy Award-winning director Kevin Macdonald (One Day In September, The Last King of Scotland) comes the story of a towering figure of musical history, whose music and message has transcended different cultures, languages and creeds to resonate around the world today as powerfully as when he was alive. Marley made its world premiere at the Berlin Film festival, followed by its North American premiere at SXSW.
"See it in a theater, and sit on the aisle so you have plenty of room to dance. Fascinating. It packs enough new revelations to satisfy the most die-hard Marley know-it-alls, and those new to his story will be riveted throughout." - Wired
".It's simply the most complete cinematic thought ever issued on this most mortal and transcendent of men." - Reggaeville
"A rousing tribute to a mesmerizing performer." - Village Voice
