Marley: Lively Up Yourself and go see this

This is really good... as in one of the best docs I have ever seen. Interviews of family, friends, Bob Marley himself, doctors, colleagues, and fans paint a fully developed picture of this amazing individual who died sadly at the age of 36 from cancer. Exhaustive in detail: background history and full of numerous anecdotes about what shaped Bob Marley into the amazing artist he became. This is the rare film I will go to see twice if not three times while still on the big screen. Last time I did that was for Pulp Fiction.
