剧情简介
Bob Marley loved women, football and marijuana and was a staunch supporter of the Rastafarian movement. But his first love was music, for this is what enabled him to escape a life of grinding poverty in the townships of Kingston. Together with his band ‘The Wailers’ this singer, guitarist and songwriter born to a British officer and a Jamaican woman in 1945 made reggae famous throughout the world, and his titles such as ‘No Woman, No Cry’, ‘I Shot the Sheriff’ and ‘Redemption Song’ have long since become anthems. The year 2011 marked the thirtieth anniversary of the king of reggae’s death.For this film Bob Marley’s family gave filmmaker Kevin Macdonald (LIFE IN A DAY) access to countless documents as well as interviewees. In MARLEY the Oscar-winning director of the documentary ONE DAY IN SEPTEMBER presents archive material, some of which has never been seen before; he also interviews Marley’s fellow musicians, friends, lovers and family members – including several of his twelve children and also his wife, Rita. We also see the man on stage in excerpts from his concerts. Marley’s music was also political, as is evidenced in his love for Africa and the attempt on his life that was made during a concert for peace held in Jamaica.
雷鬼是我喜欢的音乐类型,今天便找来马利的纪录片看看,片子拍的很棒,系统全面的介绍了他的一生。以前只喜欢他的音乐看完后才知道他成为了牙买加的民族英雄,当然所有赞美送他当之无愧。雷鬼得听现场才是正道。看到他把两个党派领导人手握在一起的时候(说是没有提前安排,我相信),彪了一点儿泪在眼皮里,马利永远是个孩子,是雷鬼之神,也是音乐的孩子。在去年的某个人生的特殊时刻看完了Marley的纪录片,在众多拉美人心里Marley以及雷鬼音乐真是神一般的存在,迎着加勒比的海风搂着喜爱的姑娘沉醉在marijuana怕是多少人的雷鬼梦,细想这也面对无法跨越的种族藩篱的一种佛系态度。最喜欢的一首仍是片尾的Wake up,stand up振臂一呼,音乐超越政治。相当有诚意和相当有爱的一部电影。有别于其他一些摇滚明星传记的成名到失落再加上毁誉参半,所有人,除了马利的女儿有一些复杂的怨愤之外,都表达着对他的爱与敬意;这里也看不到那种自我挣扎与怀疑,只是燃烧还有燃烧。实在是感人至深。2011年开始听雷鬼,就只听Bob Marley 。当时博尔特还不是牙买加的英雄。终于看过纪录片才开始敬佩这个音乐届的传奇人物。为牙买加政治和解的努力。艺术家就是有这样不可为而为之的傻气。对牙买加男人粗壮的头发还戴绒线帽,印象深刻。跟辛普森、特朗普、罗德里格斯的纪录片比起来,缺少一条鲜明的抓人的主线,整个片子看起来比较散,跟科特·科本的纪录片比起来也差了点。这个片子更像是早年乔丹的纪录片,基本就是在采访、平铺直叙、宣扬伟大。上乘的人物纪录片,Marley的音乐、态度、主张!Marley和Rita的女儿Cedella是几十个采访中唯一一个对Marley有怨言的人。。。不忠,无视孩子,没有耐心,too competitive等等。但是影片的
