A challenge

[Tony2046]

@everyone This is a challenge for all of you. I'm going to give a $25.00 gift card to the SECOND person who PMs me and lets me know they watched the movie I'm going to link.

The movie is a great, great true story called "Searching for Sugar Man". It won several awards when it first came out. Here's a link to watch it for free online, no commercials or ads. It's only 1 1/2 hours long.

Searching for Sugar Man (2012) | WatchDocumentaries.com

The SECOND person who PMs me that can prove they watched it gets the gift card. I will be asking a question that only someone who watched it will know.

Watching it now.

Fantastic. That's my review.

Fair notice. I am watching the documentary tomorrow morning in case someone wants to beat me in the challenge.

I may already have a winner. Then again, maybe not. I'll make an announcement tomorrow evening.

It's definitely worth the watch.

Well, the contest is over. There were no winners because only one poster decided to trust my judgement and watch the movie. His one word review "Fantastic". Thank you @Tony2046

It's like the old saying goes "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink".

Cheer up, friend. I've gotten a little more than a third of the way through. I've just had to watch a little at a time.

No skin off my ass if no one watches it. I just recommended it and if @everyone but @Tony2046 decides not to watch it, that's fine. I liked it and thought I'd share it so maybe others would enjoy it too. Not a big deal.

Tough stretch of days to sit down for movie "homework", but I've got less than 20 minutes left. I'll either finish it after posting this or, if I start getting sleepy enough to grab an hour or two of snooze time, sometime after I wake up.

Just finished it up. Thanks for the tip on it. Interesting and odd story.

I’ll watch it. Just not right now. Hectic week. It’s Wednesday and I’ve already put in over 30 hours this week.
