Searching for Sugar Man
A brief mention of an inspiring and very musical film.
It's been more than a year since I wrote anything on the blog and now I know why... it's the damn Facebook. It had me hooked, but that's over now. I have deactivated my account and I hope not to open it again for a long time!
Well, today I'd like to tell you about this movie that I just saw and that has filled me with inspiration and joy. It's about "Searching for Sugar Man", the story of Sixto Rodriguez, a folk singer from Detroit who released an album in the 70s but was not successful in the US. I'm not going to tell anything else because, unlike my wife, I prefer to watch a movie knowing practically nothing beforehand. You have to see it!
I liked it so much that when I finished watching it I went directly to Amazon to buy the DVD of the movie and the CD of their first album for my father (a great lover of American Folk music).
Rodriguez! you already have one more fan!
