Searching for Sugar Man

I'm really looking forward to seeing "Searching for Sugar Man." The film is about singer-songwriter Rodriguez, who emerged in the '60s, but then soon fell into obscurity.

While many people in the United State never heard of him or believed he had died, Rodriguez was gaining a rabid following in South Africa. His anti-establishment lyrics resonated with people there during a time of Apartheid.

The film is both a musical and a mystery as it unravels the story of Rodriguez.

And, yes, vinyl fans there is a soundtrack coming from Light in the Attic.
