ReMastered: The Lion's Share (TV Movie 2018)
38KReMastered: The Lion’s Share: Directed by Sam Cullman. With Rian Malan, Solomon Linda, Delphi Linda, Elizabeth Linda. South African journalist Rian Malan searches for the original writers of the legendary song “The Lion Sleeps Tonight.”
“I had no idea how much history was behind u0026#39;The Lion Sleeps tonightu0026#39; and its original Mbube. The roots of this and the history are quite fascinating and tragic. I found it remarkable how simple facts still had a complicated outcome. Solomon Linda wrote the song, the proceeds should go to his family. Ironic how laws and systems go against justice and reparations. A simple barter system of giving the loaf back to the person you took it from would yield a better result. Heartbreaking when others benefit from someoneu0026#39;s work and they receive the short straw.”
