Review of Searching for Sugar Man (2012) by Shellview — 04 Jul 2013
Who knew? I considered myself a "mavin" of folk/rock of the 60's and 70's but yet I had never heard of this artist known as Rodriguez. This documentary tells the story of a singer/songwriter who never had a chance to succeed in the U.
S. but became a voice of the opposition in apartheid South Africa. An absolute brilliant film that brings his story to the world. At times a very sad story but at other times a film that can lift up the spirit of everyone who sees this movie.
The music alone is well worth the price of admission. I look forward to watching "Searching for Sugar Man" many more times.
