Review of Searching for Sugar Man (2012) by Liesl E — 08 Oct 2014
Pleasant, but a little overhyped; I expected more from an Oscar winner. It's pretty crazy how Rodriguez's music career flamed out so quickly in his home country of the United States yet he gained such a huge following in South Africa even after he was rumored to be dead.
I find it curious that this movie omits his success in Australia during the late 70s and early 80s since it doesn't fit with the set narrative.
