      On the road, for the sadness and loneliness of my heart

      I have written about the reasons for wanting to watch this film before. It has nothing to do with the award and the director, but the theme. Regarding road movies, I will think of the most impressive "End of the Road" and "Easy Rider", breaking away from the inherent concepts and social shackles...

      Born like a mayfly, walking like running water

      Zhao Ting's "A Land of Nowhere" is a surprise at the end of 2020, or at the beginning of 21. It happened that I watched "A Little Red Flower for You" the day before and found that although the two films are in the context , the countries are different, and the things that happen to the protagonists...

      Of course, it's easy to accuse Zhao Ting's adaptation of being too romantic, but the film itself doesn't necessarily assume sociological responsibility. In terms of aesthetics, this hundred minutes of freehand brushwork is both silent and eloquent. Those painful, embarrassing, embarrassing, and humiliating are both omitted and surpassed. Dongpo and Foyin, what is in the stomach and what is in the eyes?

      What a beautiful lonely movie. After Fern's husband died, she lived in the past. Even if Dave offered her a "stable" life several times, she struggled and finally couldn't accept it. The most beautiful is the sonnet she reads her wedding speech in the sunset—shall I compare thee to the summer's day... The last is also beautiful "dedicated to the ones who had to depart, see you down the road". Very empathetic and after watching the movie I got stuck in (probably related to my recent state of mind)

    Nomadland quotes

    • Swankie: I'm gonna be 75 this year. I think I've lived a pretty good life. I've seen some really neat things kayaking all of those places. And... You know, like a moose in the wild. A moose family on the river in Idaho and big white pelicans landed just six feet over my kayak on a lake in Colorado. Or... Come around a bin, was a cliff and find hundreds and hundreds of swallow nests on the wall of the cliff. And the swallows flying all around and reflecting in the water. So it looks like I'm flying with the swallows and they're under me, and over me, and all around me. And little babies are hatching out, and eggshells are falling out of the nest, landing on the water and floating on the water. These little white shells. That was like, it's just so awesome. I felt like I've done enough. My life was complete. If I died right then, at that moment, would be perfectly fine.

    • Fern: Bo never knew his parents, and we never had kids. If I didn't stay, if I left, it would be like he never existed. I couldn't pack up and move on. He loved Empire. He loved his work so much. He loved being there, everybody loved him. So I stayed. Same town, same house. Just like my dad used to say: "What's remembered, lives." I maybe spent too much of my life just remembering, Bob.
