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. Even it has drug content, thematic elements and some violent images you can enjoy this documentary launched in DVD-blu-ray in August 7th
This movie describes life story of Bob Marley from the point of view of many different people who shared his life as well as wonderful film footage of Jamaica and old videos of Bob Marley that most people have never seen and of course it was set to the beautiful soundtrack of his life, his music of peace and struggle, love and war, happiness and sorrow. Even is a little bit long movie, his music and his faith is showed in great detail from many people close to him, including his wife, children, producers and fellow musicians, all lending their voice to unfold Bob’s story. The films compelling portrayal of Marley is told much more through the narrative drama of his life and less through a straight interpretation or celebration of his music. It’s about illuminating Marley’s roots and the trials he faced in his tragically short life. Two thumbs up for this awesome movie!

The Hunger Games tells the dark tale of a 16-year-old girl named Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence), who is selected to compete in a vicious televised tournament in which 24 teenagers from a post-apocalyptic society fight to the death for the entertainment of the masses. In the future, North America is no more. In its place has risen Panem, a divided nation split into 12 districts. Every year, each district selects a teen of each gender (called “Tributes”) to test their worth in a competition known as the Hunger Games, which are broadcast across the nation as entertainment, and to reinforce the government’s total power. When her younger sister is selected as District 12’s latest “Tribute,” Katniss volunteers to take her place, and trains under hard-drinking former Hunger Games champion Haymitch Abernathy (Woody Harrelson) to sharpen her killer instincts. Now in order to survive the game and emerge the victor, this young combatant must put all of her skills to the ultimate test.
GalaTView talked to Amanda Stenberg (Rue) and said: “Jennifer is extremely funny, in every time that we take together laughing, Jen and I were doing the same things acting. Sometimes, I had to play on some scenes and these ones had to be explained them to me mainly in some scenes were I was extremely scared because I was involved in a kind of games so It become something that I really got each scene after all.”
Alexander Ludwig (Cato): “I jumped up to my opportunity just because I had this chance to play this guy. It was really wanted to experience the dark side so I had to twist individually. I wanted cared about physical presents in a mental movie and there was a lot fight training where you can go through so I have been working with a navy seal and tons of hang calls back like a club.”
Lenny Kravitz (Cinna):”I have been in rock actually but I didn’t know about the book so I had to read it but the crew call me back very quickly after see this classic epic story, I hated at the beginning for the classic way but I loved for the costumes and messages at the same time. I’m so satisfied to do a great project with everybody who was cool and nice, no divas no drama, real actors and everyday was hugging and saying hi to each other and we had so much fun. So is not a goodbye in a certain point.”
