12:06 am
shifted to the other side of the island with the construction of an airport at montego bay, well, that was pretty much it. the northeast coast was largely forgotten. ♪ it has the feel, still, of a forgotten paradise. there are those who believe that the area can come back, that it must come back, that the future is in hotels and resorts and restaurants for wealthy visitors as it once was. take this place, for instance -- the trident hotel. expensive, luxurious. best of all, i'm the only guest. oh, did mention it comes with a castle?
12:07 am
what kind of person would own a building like that? who? why? then this man arrived and kind of answered that question. all of this belongs to michael lee-chin. local boy turned billionaire. one of the richest men in the world, and my host. he's invited me for dinner. >> anthony: right, yeah. that sounds like a plan. but first we need crabs for that dinner, i'm told, caught in the traditional style. a drk is in order. cistopher: cheers, man, respect. crabbing.

12:19 am
as i got older i started to think about these things, like, "exactly who was in that grotto before me" becomes more of a concern as you grow up. it's like -- did ron jeremy just leave the grotto? am i the first one in the grotto? has someone changed the water in the grotto? these were -- these were concerns later in life, but this was it. i wanted a grotto. i still kind of do. thank you so much. this is totally better than the playboy mansion. you know that the playboy mansion totally smells like old man ear stink. the current owner of goldeneye is another unusual man, chris blackwell, legendary music producer turned hotelier. over the years, blackwell has expanded the property into a resort. its gates reaching right up to

course, that next door to goldeneye there would be a james bond beach. >> carl: all of the bond movies were conceptualized and written here. >> anthony: when blackwell heard i wanted to visit the local fishermen, he hooked me up with his good friend carl to accompany me. i'm here to hit dr. hoe's, a local rum bar where one can indulge in a typical hard-working fisherman's breakfast -- rum. >> anthony: so we drinking rum here, we drinking beer, we drinking rum and beer? >> carl: all i know, it's hardcore. >> anthony: but you're recommending just, like, some beer and some rum together. >> fisherman: steel bottom, now. >> carl: all right. >> anthony: yeah. >> carl: steel bottom now, right? going to do one part of rum.

>> anthony: one, yep. >> carl: right, and four parts of beer. no water, no ice, try that. it's a steel bottom, meaning it's not -- >> anthony: it's good. it'll work. >> carl: and you could take it to your dimension. >> anthony: so who fishes here? you fish? >> fisherman: yeah. >> anthony: what are you fishing for? >> carl: hold on, let me get -- it's multiple fishing. >> anthony: right. >> carl: it could be your snapper, your parrot, your grunt -- >> man: exactly. >> anthony: right. so is business better these days or worse these days? >> carl: okay. >> man: worse. >> anthony: worse. right? >> carl: over fishing is a problem. >> anthony: oracabessa is a fishing village, for now at least. all throughout the caribbean fish stocks are in decline, and making a living from the sea is getting harder and harder. >> carl: so right here has actually become a fishing sanctuary where we're trying to now revive the fish stock around
12:29 am
the island. >> anthony: so if this becomes a protected sanctuary what are you going to do for a living? >> carl: yeah, so you have to go -- >> anthony: further out. >> carl: -- further out to sea for deep-sea fishing. >> anthony: that means more gas. >> carl: more gas, less fish. so it's a strain, right? >> anthony: is there a future for the traditional fishing industry in jamaica or do you think, like every place else in the caribbean, is it going to end up an entirely tourist economy? >> anthony: this is -- >> carl: but what is happening now -- >> anthony: i keep -- here's what i'm kind of getting at. rich people want to live what they see as a simple life. in their minds, they want to live the life of a jamaican fisherman. they want to live the life of somebody who doesn't have a lot of money, but the people who actually do that now are giving up their living and essentially entering the tourist sector. there's a certain amount of weird irony at work here. who gets to live in paradise? >> carl: nobody because guess what --
12:30 am
>> anthony: this architect's model sits in one of goldeneye's offices showing what oracabessa's coastline will look like if all goes according to plan. >> fisherman: no, i'm talking the truth. >> anthony: i'm no expert on local politics but whatever is going on here has clearly stirred up some strong emotions. >> man: that one is true. >> fisherman: as they -- >> carl: hold on, hold on, hold on. >> fisherman: wait a minute. wait a minute. i'm talking. >> carl: hold on, hold on, hold
12:31 am
on, hold on. >> fisherman: wait a minute, chris. >> carl: you got -- you got to stop talk. >> fisherman: hold on. >> carl: me said stop bumbaclot -- >> fisherman: why i have to stop talk -- >> carl: me says stop talking. me no wanna hear no more of that. >> man: hold on, hold on. >> carl: let's cool, man, let's cool, man. let's stop talk -- stop talk. >> fisherman: we gonna talk reality -- >> carl: all right, all right, big man, stop talk. >> fisherman: why? >> carl: come here. come here. [ all speaking over one another ] >> carl: yeah. no, no, no, go back. go back. >> fisherman: don't do that. >> carl: no, no, go sit down. >> man: for the interview. >> anthony: which is better, to be your own man, upholfaly tradition in a dangerous ever-shrinking, ever more difficult business trying to catch fish in the sea or carry a golf bag for a wealthy tourist? i couldn't tell you. i was in the service industry cooking people's food for most of my working life so it's not like i have anything against it, but i don't know.
12:32 am
>> carl: it's a joyous day. let us find the spirit in man and travel to the unknown. at the end because we're here in the present that it just started. it is coming we out of the unknown, out of the nothingness, and we're going to go on into the information highway into the celestial. we are what you call astral travelers, so traveling dimension to dimension. if one man die, all men dead. and if one man live, all man live. tolerance. one dog, one foal, one cow, one puss, one moon, one sun. it had to be multipurpose in order sustain energy and life so
12:33 am
you have black, blue, green, pink, yellow, river, seed, mountain, bird, dog, puss, man. everything is found in nonesuch. everything is relative. the cure, the money, everything is connected to the universe. so we, i'll tell you, one person does not realize how vulnerable we are within the changes of time. earth will not disappear my brethren. as eye and eye.

♪ >> anthony: who gets to live in paradise? it's jamaica. let's accept as a -- as a basic premise that this is about as close to paradise as it gets, right? this place i'm sying was built by a guy who lived here two months out of the ar. that place down there, probably the same, two months aear. sad to say i think it's unlikely that 50 years from now anyone but the extraordinarily fortunate, the extraordinarily connected, and the
12:38 am
extraordinarily rich will be able to even look at a vista like this. that is my personal theory. look, here i am, fully aware of the irony of the situation. it's like the whole preservation thing, who preserve for who? save the reef, for who? save the beach, for whom? not you, probably. ♪ later that evening, blackwell invited me to his private bar just down the cliff from fleming's old villa. there are very few pieces of land anywhere on earth like
12:39 am
this, especially with this kind of legendary status. >> chris blackwell: legendary status, yes, it's fleming. it's really bond's birthplace. >> anthony: chris blackwell is the founder of island records. he's credited with discovering bob marley and spreading the gospel of reggae into the mainstream all across the world. to the extent that one person could sort of be responsible for the soundtrack of your life, you are responsible for much of the soundtrack of my life. you signed roxy music and brian eno both, yes? >> chris blackwell: yes. >> anthony: did you have any idea, signing bob marley, the extent to which his image alone would blow up to -- to, you know, che guevara level. >> chris blackwell: bob somehow matonaged ch people in every corner oworlf the in different cultures, different societies. um, no, i never could've imagined.

12:41 am
it seems to me that most people who come to jamaica pretty much stay within the compound of, you know, sandals or whatever and don't really get out there much. >> chris blackwell: it's a business model and that business model works well for people. ♪ the market that i'm going for are the ones on the high level in terms of a high cost level. >> anthony: is it an inevitability that basically all of the caribbean -- that it's essentially going to end up as a service economy? >> chris blackwell: yes, i think -- yes, i think, i think mainly so and then it's based on tourism. it's based on people visiting. >> anthony: it's a tough balance. the engine that's going to
12:42 am
preserve or save is often dependent on who's coming to look and what they're willing to pay to come and look. can there be a balance, do you think? i mean, can a place this beautiful be unspoiled forever? >> chris blackwell: i think, i think there could be a couple hundred places like this in jamaica. as long as there are people who can go and spend some money in communities. go to little restaurants, go to little bar, go to, you know, shop, that's essential for jamaica to really thrive. >> anthony: if life were a bond film, who would you be in a bond film? >> chris blackwell: well, there's only one hero in a bond film. that's -- >> anthony: oh. you'd be the hero? >> chris blackwell: i'd have to be, i'd have to figure that out, yes. >> anthony: i don't know that i'd be the villain. i'd be like number 17. >> chris blackwell: he has a happy -- unhappy ending. >> anthony: yes. frequently. >> chris blackwell: and his end is cut short, yeah.

12:48 am
the classic gotta-have-it or you really ain't been to jamaica, ackee and salt fish. salt cod, rehydrated and cooked with ackee, a local fruit that happens to be toxic if you don't handle it right. now, they say best ackee and salt fish. >> cynthia: in jamaica. >> anthony: anywhere. and yeah, also some banana. >> joy: delicious. >> anthony: that is delicious. >> joy: yeah. >> anthony: cynthia's friends joy and margery also have little restaurants or food stalls on the beach and they tell me that here, too, it's in danger of redevelopment. that all this might disappear into the ever-churning wheel of, well -- ♪ ooh ooh waa ♪ ooh ooh waa ♪ ooh ooh >> cynthia: winnifred beach is a public beach. it has been one of the best ach in jaica. the beach was left to give the
