Time Will Tell DVD - Is a good introduction to Bob.Jan 22, 2010
By Stephen L. Sadler "~Slim~"
It has material in it that could be found in the other two documentaries I own. Live at the Rainbow and The Legend Live both have additional documentary DVD's that go at lot more indepth to his life and beliefs. This movie does have portions of some rare interviews and snippets of concerts that I wish I had the complete footage to but maybe in the future it will be released by the estate of Marley. All in all - 1. Its authentic 2. Has some rare footage 3. and is hard to find in a local store: so pick it up while you have the chance.

A classic that has stood the test of time.Mar 26, 2011
By Paul Johnson
This is truly one of the best representations of the amazing array of footage that is available from such a varied artist as Bob Marley. While many may see Bob as simply a legend of his own genre this film takes a step beyond to truly appreciate the nuances that created all the dynamics that made Bob Marley one of the most interesting and impacting artists of the 20th century. Neville Garrick, a friend of Bob and his main art director for many projects while Bob was alive took great in care in weaving archival footage with narration from Bob himself. This style later being adopted for films such as Tupac: Resurrection.

That being said this is not the nuts and bolt Bob Marley documentary that many people may seek. There is no narration apart from the words of Marley himself. For a more basic overview of what made the major events of his life there are better examples like Rebel Music or even Caribbean Nights. This however has retained the warmth, the care and the overall love that truly went into this project at the time of creation.

Being a young Bob Marley collector this was one of my first experiences that brought a deeper understanding of the man who made this music. The portions of footage alone are a great starting point to discover the full sources for these performances, which contain truly some of the greatest yet most humble music that shaped an international sound that still ripples throughout our culture.

Land of Look BehindJul 24, 2006
By Laura Walker "godisgood"
I loved it! I especially liked the piece where the priest at Marley's funeral "rapped" about Bob.

Although some of the footage made me sad (the scenes about some of the poverty stricken areas of Jamaica)all in all this was a beautiful film.

There were also great musical performaces.

I highly recommend this film to any Bob fan.
