Watching Nomadland, said to be an up-and-coming female Chinese director, feels like Ang Lee's work, just like "The Wedding Banquet", "Pi's Drift" and "Lynn's Intermission", etc. No matter who tells the story, the storyteller The way is oriental and cordial. The heroine's loneliness and loneliness runs through the entire time. It's not that she has no chance to stop wandering. She has the opportunity to live a "traditional" life settled by ordinary people. Like most "normal" people, she lives with her family in a big house inside. In fact, the town of EMPIRE in Michigan and the unseen "Wave" became a symbol, her psychological fulcrum, and the home of that large SUV converted to carry all her memories, even if the repair cost half the car price, she did not hesitate to replace it with a new one.
Road films have always been enthusiastic and unrestrained, such a cold road film has never been seen before, and it is also a senior subject at the retirement age. Think of the second child in "The Years of Love", the boy with a bear in his chest, unable to work for a long time, unable to stay with the same group of people. People are on a journey, and it is difficult and long. Maybe someone needs a partner, or someone is destined to go through it alone. ?
In the summer of 2016, a person drove an EXPLORER in the west of the United States and wanted to run Route 66 once. After walking for three days to cedar city in Colorado, I found that Route 66 has been partially abolished and cannot be fully connected. The scenery of the desolate wild wild west is too similar. After driving for a few hours, it seems that it has not moved. I am afraid of aesthetic fatigue and sleepiness. Arizona saw the Grand Canyon and Antelope Canyon, I15, I40, mixed part of Highway 66 via Highway 99 to I5, north to Yosemite, after visiting Berkeley, Stanford and Carnegie Mellon, via Highway 1 to claremont I10 Transfer to I15 to arrive at san diego and then return to LAX, driving a total of 5300 kilometers in 14 days. Danxia and Yadan landforms, deserts, Gobi and semi-Gobi, and national geoparks dominated by weathered fossils, mainly Utah and Colorado, the scenery is very close to the movie, vast and magnificent, primitive and vast, but there is some sadness at sunset , soon passed, the motel woke up and went back to the road, fighting spirit again, understanding Aunt Mai's mentality, the feeling on the road is unparalleled, the only thing I know is that there will be unknown, the fun of exploration will always support the tired body and The mentality of wanting to give up.
There is another Spring Festival, and I will go to Australia to celebrate the New Year. I will drive an old Toyota Hiace with a mileage of 650,000 kilometers (similar to the large SUV driven by the female lead), and complete a 15-day journey from Melbourne on the Great Ocean Road via Port Fairy to the Northeast Inland via Albert, Waga to Sydney, and then return to Melbourne via the Pacific Highway via Philip Island, a RV shop with a total mileage of 3,605 kilometers, lived in more than a dozen RV park campsites, and met many elderly people from various countries, including Retired doctors in Germany, "Sunset Red" tour groups in the Netherlands, local retired elderly people in Australia, etc., some drive RANGER pickup trailers, some rent and refit VW high-roof RVs, and some self-modify buses. Water supply, electricity and sewage at berths are very cheap. , is the first choice for travel. At that time, I was envious of this way of life, and I discussed it with my wife. When the children no longer needed us, I would buy a big four-wheel drive RV to travel around the world, and I would stay for a few more days wherever I was comfortable. Understanding the mentality of the people in the play, the sense of freedom brought by RV is unparalleled, with almost infinite possibilities, and nothing can stop it. Many people like the feeling of being on the road.
I love watching movies. A good movie can make us experience hundreds of different lives. I like this movie very much. I believe it will be well received by professional filmmakers, film critics and ordinary people.
