Review of Nomadland (2021) by Moira Macdonald for The Seattle Times — 11 Feb 2021
Zhao shows us the difficulty of this life — the endless laundromats, the cramped bed in the van, the cold, the possessions left behind — but also its beauty and freedom. I wished I could have seen Nomadland on a theater screen, to see the horizons and pale-peach sunrises stretching endlessly in Joshua James Richards’ beautiful cinematography.
And I wished I could have seen McDormand’s face as big as a house, looking wonderingly outward, finding possibility.
