When he was young, he released two almost perfect albums but no one cares about them in the country. Coupled with the distress of life, according to the logic of most people, he would indeed commit suicide like all lonely geniuses. But in the latter part of the documentary, he told us that he was not dead! Not only did he not die, but he was still alive in the most ordinary way. How can a genius bear to live a mediocre life for a lifetime! But he treated those boring with a pious and serious attitude, even as if he never felt boring. He renovated houses for others to make a living, and he volunteered to do more, and he also took the initiative to take care of the hard work. In this overly emotional age, everyone is too self-righteous and everyone is too vulnerable. But he has been living in the so-called trough of life in the eyes of ordinary people, and he has lived like this for most of his life. In the future, he learned that his record was awarded in other countries, and he went to other countries to tour, and obtained the so-called success as defined by the world. Back in the country, he still continued his life that was too ordinary for a genius, still had no money, and still repaired the house for others to make a living. But he said that everyone has the right to choose. This is my choice. What an existentialism! I believe that his heart is truly free, whether it is in the wandering youth, or the peaceful middle age, or on the stage of the much-anticipated South Africa. He was always calm, with his own plans in his heart. His success has benefited a lot of people around him, but he hasn't changed. Still in Detroit, walking slowly on the street. He didn't know that he had completed a kind of immortality.
His story is true. The truth exaggerates the power of the story, and the truth also brings hope. This is the greatest charm of documentaries. As a documentary, the production of "Looking for the Sugar Man" is so delicate, with a slightly suspenseful narrative, the storyline is just right to advance, and the picture that fits perfectly with the music, all of which give this film extra points. At the same time, the most valuable thing is that the director found this story and finally presented it to us in such a perfect way after many hardships. Everyone who watches this film will receive a kind of spiritual salvation and release. The fragile heart with dreams will therefore be stronger and stronger. This is the greatest significance of this documentary, at least for me! Thanks to "Looking for the Sugar Man".
