ReMastered: who shot the Sheriff?
a Netflix documentary which centers around the 1976 assassination attempt on bob Marley.
gets into the murky political world of Jamaican politics and towards the end the interference by CIA on one side and KGB on the other.
Rating: 4/5

my knowledge of Mr.Marley was pretty well non existent before watching this one.
all i knew was that he was a reggae dude who basically moved to the UK, got skin cancer and died as he was about to really hit the 'bigtime'.
had no idea about the man, his beliefs or his personal fight against injustice.
will be interesting to revisit his music now to see how my newly gained knowledge affects the way i hear his songs.
plenty of archival footage so this would probably be of interest fans also.
