In a recent interview with The Associated Press, Ziggy Marley says “it was just a feeling.” Early signs suggest that for moviegoing audiences, it worked. “Bob Marley: One Love” has only been in theaters for a few days, but it is already making waves at the box office. Ziggy Marley hopes that the film about his father makes “people feel like they are part of the family.”
