The wandering of an American proletarian on the road to freedom

I think the title of the film is on the rough coast, and only Haiyan appeared for about a second. The protagonist played by Coen's wife is the Haiyan.

When watching "Knight", I felt that Director Zhao Ting had found a way to direct. This fragment-propelled narrative method is based on the strong integration of the actor's performance and the stage book, photography, light, and editing. Now it is more efficient, solid, easy to use, impeccable, and more mysterious in "A Place Without Dependence". The rhythm of some commercial films can even be found among them.

It is hard to imagine that Zhao Ting can bring this narrative method to Marvel's set. But Zhao Ting seems very confident, because we can see the elements of "Avengers" in this film. In addition to this, I also fully felt the fascination of "Ice Blood Storm", "2001 Space Odyssey", "Tree of Life" and even "Blade Runner" in this film.

Yes, "Blade Runner", this is my biggest feeling in this film.

How should we define freedom? Is freedom a kind of wealth in life? Is this freedom in the film created by freedom itself, or is it caused by lack of freedom?

The most shocking thing about "Blade Runner" is the ending. Roy's famous quote before his death: "The things I have seen, you humans are absolutely unbelievable. I witnessed the battleship catching fire on the edge of the Orion constellation. I see. With C-rays, shining in the darkness near the gate of Tang Huaise. All these moments will eventually be lost in time. Like tears, disappear in the rain. The moment of death has arrived..."

I have always wondered, after seeing so many wonders of the universe, is the bionic man free or not?

If a bionic person is given a chance, will he choose the freedom to see, or the freedom to continue his life? His last words, is he more proud or helpless?

The superficial view is that everyone certainly hopes to have the freedom to see the wonders, and the freedom not to see them. Everything has a choice. But in fact, everyone has no choice. Everyone is on the road without knowing it, knowing it is a farewell, but stubbornly saying "goodbye on the road."

Nomadland quotes

  • Makenzie: My mom says that you're homeless, is that true?

    Fern: No, I'm not homeless. I'm just house-less. Not the same thing, right?

  • Linda: Before I moved into this squeeze inn, I was out looking for work and putting in applications. 2008, and it was just tough. I got to a really really low point. And I thought about suicide. And I decided I was gonna go buy a bottle of booze, turn on the propane stove, and I was gonna drink that booze until I'm passed out. And if I woke up, I was gonna light a cigarette and I was gonna blow us all up. And I looked at my two sweet little trusting dogs, my Cocker Spaniel and my little Toy Poodle. And I... I just couldn't do that to them. And I thought, well, I can't do that to me either. So I was getting close to 62 and I went online to look at my social security benefits. It said $550. Fern, I have worked my whole life. I've worked since I was 12 years old. Raised two daughters. I couldn't believe it. So I'm online and I find Bob Wells' cheap RV living. I could live in a RV. Travel. And not have to work for the rest of my life.
