  1. Caribbean odyssey a harrowing and humorous tale

    THEATER REVIEW: 'Jamaica, Farewell' at Chopin Theatre  ★★★ ...  "Jamaica, Farewell," which has arrived here from Los Angeles, is a different kind of international show, but one just as potent and revealing of global forces as a window into some distant land.
    "Jamaica, Farewell" a show title with a judiciously placed comma but very little in the way of a set or other trappings, is one woman's first-person story of her determination to leave the Caribbean island of her birth and find her way to a new life in...

  7. He is (almost) legend

    LONDON — We want him to be Superman. We knew him that way four years ago, when Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt emerged on the global sports stage and took world records and gold medals away from the Beijing Olympics with an ease that suggested he did in fact come from another planet. We hadn't paid much attention since then, and when the time came for the world to watch Bolt again, it wouldn't have been as much fun to see him as the runner who had struggled at times the previous two seasons.

  13. Jamaican icon gets a fitting doc tribute in 'Marley' ✭✭✭ 1/2

    The musical and documentary vibes are very, very good in "Marley," director Kevin Macdonald's portrait of the reggae revolutionary born Robert Nesta Marley in Jamaica in 1945. Documentaries fully authorized by the subject's surviving family members are rarely this rich. I knew and loved a lot of the music going in, though next to nothing about Marley's short life on the planet. I came out with a reaffirmed sense of the former, and an honest, just-this-side-of-hagiography understanding of the latter.
