Review of Searching for Sugar Man (2012) by Jason R — 03 Mar 2013

A truly fascinating story that highlights the beautiful music of a man named, Rodriguez. This man from Detroit who wrote like Dylan and sounded like nobody else at that time. Quits after he records his second album and fades into obscurity. Several decades later he learns that his albums sparked a revolution and are both loved and treasured in South Africa.

This picture not only sheds light on his music and life. But, it does something more important. It is really about how his music changed others lives. In ways that he was blissfully unaware of. A very beautiful and touching story. One that should not be missed.
