    • @lk_c7214
      @lk_c7214 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +55

      I think what Kingsley said about the Jamaican Patois influence says it all. British cockney has been heavily influenced by the language of Caribbean immigrants in the UK, so it’s not separate, it’s infused. Patois isn’t cockney but cockney owes a lot to Patois. And of course he’s Black, so I’m sure he sounds a lot like Black Brits do. It’s kinda like how Cardi B has a New York accent but it’s heavily influenced by Puerto Rican/Dominican Spanish, so her New York accent is different from a white person’s New York accent.

    This interview was honestly one of the best Breakfast Club interviews. I really got to learn about Kingsley and his process. I imagine playing a larger than life iconic figure with one of the hardest accents to mimic was a task. I'm happy to report that I watched the film and Kingsley bodied the role. As a born Jamaican, I was relieved and proud. I believe Bob would have been proud too. His performance will earn him a number of award nominations next season. Capturing Bob was a tall order and he delivered.

    Kingsley Ben-Adir was outstanding as Bob Marley and most definitely captured the essence of Bob’s person during that pivotal moment in Bob’s life. The family chose him, I believe, because he was able to articulate Bob’s character in the most authentic manner. I learned so much about Bob’s humanitarianism and deeply rooted spirituality (Nester was surely a Messenger) as a result of this film. Thank you Ziggy, Rita, Marley family, Ben, La Shauna and the production team of One Love! This could easily have been a 3 hour movie without anyone moving from their seat! ❤❤🤲🏽🙏🏽

    Growing up Rasta, I can say that all that Char was saying was not him revealing the movie, but things that are public knowledge if you’ve followed Bob’s story for a long time. I’m sure the movie will be great, but there’s an entire biopic of his life that’s been out for sometime now called “Marley.” It’s BEAUTIFULLY put together and deep on so many levels. I believe it is the most honest version of his story. A ton of first hand accounts from those close to him. It’s a true in-depth masterpiece of his
    workings and private family life. I cry every time I watch it. I would suggest giving that a watch FIRST before going to see the movie. That way, all the parts that may feel “rushed” and not detailed enough, will all make sense. I know his family was more hands on in this new movie and gave the stamp of approval, so I’m excited to see what nuances are offered.
    Peace & Blessings
