The movie is beautiful, and I love how it's about a concept, or a life style if you will, that I had never seen anything about before. It explores the live of a "modern nomad" woman, and I think the story manages to say everything it needed to about that, you understand that, most of the people, just love the "freedom", and connecting to people along the way.
The acting is phenomenal, Frances McDormand, once again, is just insanely good here, and all the other members of the cast, that were apparently not actors (and I just discovered that rn) were also pretty good.
The score is great, the script is also pretty good, it manages to tell the story, and make the characters emote a lot, even tho they aren't actually saying much.
At first I was unable to relate with the character's motivation to stay a nomad, cause well, in the beginning it seems that she only does that, cause she doesn't have a better option, however, during the film, she does have other options, and even choses to sleep on her van instead of a bedroom in a regular house at some point, and I found that odd, cause, well how am I suppose to care about her struggles, if she is choosing to live them?
But, after a while, and talking with some people, I realize that she actually founds the meaning in the nomad life throughout the movie, by meeting with people, by been part of a community, and, by refusing to live a "regular life" again, when she does have a chance. So, I think I get it more now.
To sum up, Nomadland is a pretty good movie, with great acting, great cinematography, and that explore a completely different subject, I hadn't seemed before anywhere.
