      Kingsley well respected Bob and really put his heart an soul into this part people in London are well acquainted with the Jamaica patios Bob himself lived here for 2yrs after he got shot in Jamaica so English people kinda claim a bit of Bob for themselves his father was British decent so a lot of connections to England. Understandable Jamaican people would want a Jamaican to play Bobs Part however Kingsley is a seasoned actor and also biracial like Bob I feel he done an excellent job because he loves Bob he wanted to do the part justice and was very sensitive to Bobs family and friends advice he didn't have attitude such as its my part he showed real genuine respect and admiration to all a really nice humble person his admiration for the Marlys and Neville Garick shines through in his interviews in my opinion

    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 ?
