Marley (2012)
enlightening
I am amazed at the amount of information not publicly known about an icon such as Bob Marley. This movie goes into great (and previously unmentioned) detail regarding his life, his family, his music and his untimely death. The interviews with his wife, his girlfriends, his children, band mates, etc. tell much of the story that we never were privy to prior. While it is more than two hours in length, you will soon realize it takes every bit of this and then some to detail the life of someone who unfortunately only lived to the age of 36. There are recoding sessions, interviews with Marley himself and footage of his many tours and concerts. This documentary will convert anyone yet understanding how important Robert Nesta Marley was to world music and world politics. I highly recommend it.
Outrage (2009)
Small budget, great flick
Ace Cruz proves that big things can come in small packages.
I have seen similar plots but Michael Madsen makes this one worth seeing and far less cliché than some others in this genre. Madsen never fails to exceed expectations. Regarless of genre or budget he puts all of himself into each role and certainly doesn't disappoint in Outrage. Derek Nixon does a fine job in his role, it would be good to see more of him on the screen in the near future. Ace, who began his career as an actor, does an excellent job in both roles (actor/director) in this film.
Someone needs to give these guys more money for future projects. I saw Miracle at St. Anns last night and was made painfully aware what a waste a large budget in the wrong hands can be.
