I watched that movie. I thought it was really cool. It also makes one realize, half the stuff we accumulate we don’t need...or want anymore (“you can’t take it with you”). It’s actually, true freedom.

Indeed, Renee. One of the things I love about Chloé Zhao is she uses *real* people (with the exception of Frances McDormand and David Strathairn) in her films, and the people featured in “Nomadland” are actually living the nomadic life portrayed in the movie.
Her previous two films, “The Rider” and “Songs My Brother Taught Me” use all non-actors and are exceptional as well (I’m pretending “Eternals” doesn’t exist). The protagonist in “The Rider” experienced the brain injury depicted in the film in real-life, and the story that emerged was inspired by his own.

One of my favorite rockers said it like this: "Never see a hearse with a luggage rack.
All your money, your hard earned pay.
It don’t mean shit, babe, at the end of the day "
