There are often complaints that accents and dialects in films are quite inaccurate so it is interesting to see that there have been efforts to ensure authenticity in the new film about Bob Marley https://www.theguardian.com/music/2024/feb/16/we-will-not-accept-fake-patois-jamaican-linguist-on-dialogue-in-bob-marley-biopic
I have not seen the film so I cannot judge how successful it is (I am also not an expert in this variety although I do have some experience of hearing patois/Patwa) but it is good that it is being taken seriously.
