\n\u00cen anul 2005, un om al str\u0103zii a g\u0103sit o serviet\u0103 plin\u0103 cu bancnote de 20 \u015fi 50 de dolari. Suma total\u0103 pe care Ted Rodrigue a g\u0103sit-o era de 100.000 de dolari; omul nu \u015ftia \u00eens\u0103 c\u0103 banii erau l\u0103sa\u0163i acolo de un regizor, care i-a propus urm\u0103torul t\u00e2rg: Rodrigue putea p\u0103stra suta de mii de dolari, cu condi\u0163ia s\u0103 fie filmat \u00een urm\u0103toarea perioad\u0103, atunci c\u00e2nd avea s\u0103 cheltuie banii.<\/p>\n
Toat\u0103 povestea a n\u0103scut numeroase controverse, mai ales dup\u0103 apari\u0163ia la televiziune a documentarului realizat, “Reversal of Fortune”.<\/p>\n
\u00cen cadrul unui interviu, regizorul \u015fi scenaristul Wayne Powers a spus c\u0103 ideea i-a venit \u00een Los Angeles, unde mul\u0163i oameni ai str\u0103zii \u00eei cereau bani. “Ce ar face un astfel de om dac\u0103 i-ai da o avere?”, se \u00eentreba Powers. A propus scenariul celor de la Showtime, iar ace\u015ftia i-au finan\u0163at proiectul.<\/p>\n
Regizorul spune c\u0103 l-a ales pe Rodrigue dup\u0103 ce a discutat cu mai mul\u0163i oameni ai str\u0103zii, argument\u00e2nd c\u0103 cel ales era un om care avusese, pur \u015fi simplu, mult prea mult ghinion \u00een via\u0163\u0103. “Atunci c\u00e2nd m\u0103 g\u00e2ndesc la copil\u0103rie, cred c\u0103 nimic nu a mers cum trebuia. Mama mea era alcoolic\u0103. Aveam petreceri tot timpul \u00een cas\u0103, cred c\u0103 am \u00eenceput s\u0103 beau c\u00e2nd aveam 13 ani”, a povestit Rodrigue. \u00cenainte ca Powers s\u0103 demareze proiectul, Rodrigue c\u00e2\u015ftiga bani colect\u00e2nd sticle \u015fi cutii. El c\u00e2\u015ftiga \u00een jur de 20 de dolari pe zi – suficient pentru a cump\u0103ra m\u00e2ncare, alcool \u015fi \u0163ig\u0103ri.<\/p>\n
Odat\u0103 cu \u00eenceperea film\u0103rilor, cei din echipa lui Powers nu au mai interac\u0163ionat cu omul str\u0103zii. I-au pus la dispozi\u0163ie un consultant financiar la care Rodrigue a apelat \u00een prima zi; dup\u0103 \u00eent\u00e2lnire, el \u015fi-a cump\u0103rat o biciclet\u0103 \u015fi s-a dus cu un prieten la un parc de distrac\u0163ii. A \u00eenchiriat o camer\u0103 la un motel, dar nu s-a obi\u015fnuit cu patul a\u015fa c\u0103 a dormit pe jos; p\u0103rea c\u0103 nu vrea s\u0103 cheltuie mult \u015fi ar putea s\u0103 \u00ee\u015fi schimbe via\u0163a.<\/p>\n
Ce a urmat seam\u0103n\u0103 destul de mult cu ceea ce se \u00eent\u00e2mpl\u0103 cu majoraritatea celor care c\u00e2\u015ftig\u0103 la loterie: to\u0163i cunoscu\u0163ii au \u00eenceput s\u0103 \u00eei cear\u0103 bani, iar femeile au \u00eenceput s\u0103 \u00eei dea mai mult\u0103 aten\u0163ie. Dup\u0103 ce a cheltuit o sum\u0103 consistent\u0103, Ted Rodrigue a plecat s\u0103 \u00ee\u015fi viziteze familia \u00een Sacramento. S-a \u00eentors dup\u0103 o lun\u0103 de zile, a \u00eenchiriat un apartament \u015fi \u015fi-a cump\u0103rat o camionet\u0103.<\/p>\n
\u00cen 6 luni de zile, Ted Rodrigue a cheltuit to\u0163i cei 100.000 de dolari; doi ani mai t\u00e2rziu, dup\u0103 ce a v\u00e2ndut tot ce putea, el a \u00eenceput din nou s\u0103 colecteze sticle pentru a supravie\u0163ui.<\/p>\n
“A fost o perioad\u0103 frustrant\u0103, pentru c\u0103 a avut multe oportunit\u0103\u0163i”, remarc\u0103 Powers. “Atunci c\u00e2nd petreci mult timp cu cineva speri ca acea persoan\u0103 s\u0103 reu\u015feasc\u0103; din p\u0103cate, de data asta nu a fost cazul.”<\/p>\n
