THE BOSTON GLOBE: In Bob Marley documentary, catching fire the world over

A well-received 2012 documentary on the life of the reggae superstar Bob Marley, “Marley” is being re-released as a virtual screening through the Coolidge Corner Theatre and other venues nationwide to honor the singer’s 75th birthday. If you missed it the first time around, why should you bother now?
