What is Rodriguez's identity? I'm sure he's asked this question himself, especially when told he has a fan base in the tens of thousands in South Africa. I also believe that finding a balance between being a construction worker and a popular singer is definitely a tougher thing - even though he doesn't love fame and money. Quietly being interviewed, being invited to a tour, being surrounded by thousands of enthusiastic fans, signing an autograph session, and then quietly wearing a tuxedo at the construction site to do physical work. . Rodrigeuz really turned his life into poetry, and his every move is full of poetry, making people vaguely see the core of his philosophical brilliance. Why is he full of legends? The sugar man we have seen is not high-pitched or angry, but always maintains the kindness and rare humility from the heart. In the film, I am always moved by R's shy and warm smile, he must be full of pure holy light in his heart. The saying "not to be happy with things, not to be sad with oneself" may be the root of this legend. After reading it, I suddenly feel that R is a very lucky singer. This kind of luck is not only in his jaw-dropping talent and quiet mind, but also in that he is not buried in the end. If he is not discovered by those South Africans after all, if he does not perform in South Africa after all, if he regrets to die in Detroit after all and live on the record forever, it will be a complete tragedy. In fact, it's not completely, thank God is his pure heart, when he was asked if he felt sad and angry that he was not "discovered", he quietly said "I live a good life." This sentence What a relief, I couldn't have been better at reassuring me. Favorite shots: R slowly opens the window of the house he has lived in for 40 years, and then closes it gently: R bows his head alone, walking in the snowy day; R grabs the microphone after accepting the award and says, "thank you for keeping me alive”. When the background narration disappears, his appearance always makes people want to cry in loneliness, maybe this is the genius who is favored.
