- An exploration of the artistry at play in Chloé Zhao’s Oscar®-nominated adaptation of "Nomadland." This series of conversations features the NOMADLAND producing team as they discuss Zhao’s filmmaking process and the film's unique production challenges. This special originally aired on ABC.
I watched this on the plane from Tokyo to London, on my way home to bury my son who was killed in a road accident a week ago. This beautiful story gave me strength to pull through. Thank you for telling me it, you made a difference. Bless
I’m sorry for the loss of your beloved son, I look at our son everyday so blessed to have him and his sister, been through a lot of legal problems with him but he’s coming out of the troubles, growing up, becoming a man.You will remember the good times forever you had with him.
Your comment touched me. I have a 19 yr old son whom I love, but won't see me. My condolences to you. Stay safe.

Hugs! I lost my mom to cancer many years ago. You never get over the ones you love but you can heal and love life.
Thank you, Shaun. I'm slowly learning to be ok with never being ok again. Not easy but it's the only way forward. @@shaunhall960
Having lived this way as well as in a static home, I can tell you that the nomadic community is kinder, closer, warmer than any apartment building I've ever resided in. Have lived in a house now for two years and just learned my next door neighbors name - we're more isolated than ever. This film is beautiful. Thanks Chloe, Fran and all who participated.
I don't live in a house, I live in a home, a place alive with 30 years of memories such as my daughter growing up. I have a van I can live in but I would never willingly leave my home unless circumstances force me. Plus, I hate travelling.
I’ve faced similar issue of not learning about my neighbour’s for years. This is not how it is back home in india.. people get to know each other…
I'm about the same age as Frances McDormand. As a child of the sixties, people tending to group together more and relied on each other more. We knew our neighbours, in nearly all the places we lived as we changed location for my dad's job. For thirty years , well into adulthood i could visit my grandparents neighbours families who were all still living there all those years later. The older folks had jobs for life, with wages that mostly kept pace with inflation. None of them lost their homes due to failures of the Economy. None of them lost their homes, fullstop.
that should read ''tended'' as in past tense. The sixties as i and many others experienced them, as kids
You could reach out first and introduce yourself to the neighbors as well.
Constantly moving is a LOT of work. I think I'm too lazy to be a fulltime nomad although I love to travel.
Love this making of Nomadland, seeing the crew again, made my heart soar. They worked long hard days making this movie. The crew was small enough I got to be friends with all of them. Thank you all for a truly great experience.
Thank you for sharing your story with us on the screen! You, Bob and Swankie etc are all so great in the movie that I sometimes forgot you guys are not actors, but I guess that's what makes this film so special, it feels real and authentic!
I listened to the book and became a fan of yours. Thanks for sharing your story, very inspiring indeed.
LUCKY LINDA MAY
Greetings from Kathmandu...I will definitely look for it.. since lock down I will have to wait few more weeks
Linda, I loved you and your character in this film.
I also feel blessed to have an under 2 seconds cameo in this film, I am just starting the nomad life. 50 years old and travelling the road. Most importantly, want to show my appreciation to all these lovely TH-camrs that freely motivated me and informed me, preparing myself for this life choice. Thank You!!!
Conrats on winning Best Picture! Couldn't be more proud of Bob, and our nomad community!
I absolutely loved, loved, loved this movie and all the people involved in it.
Wonderful. So glad the academy went with something fresh and new to most people. Thank you Academy Awards. Thank you to all the nomads who helped this happen. Thank you Bob Wells.
Brilliant.
Thank you Bob Wells He gets the recognition that he deserves
The film definitely makes us reflect upon our own lives, telling us what capacities we have within us - if we only have the courage to live out those capacities. Truly a "poem on the road".
Well said
true indeed
This movie is about deep grief and quiet hope. It is my personal favorite in five years. I obsessively watched it five times, and will definitely watch it again on the big screen in the cinema.
This was one of the most interesting movies I've seen in a long time, having done some traveling myself in van or two myself. It really hit home in a very special way. Many of the older nomads that are out there because the world has changed so much, and I feel that there will be more as time goes on.
I lived in my Class B for three years, traveling America and I met so many people who are the true American spirit.
This movie makes you really think about your idea of what freedom is.
Cinematography in this movie wasn't only one of last year's best, it is one of the best I've ever seen. Absolutely stunning, and super grounded and organic.
Loved his comments “my job is to get the lifeboats out and save as many as I can.” Beautiful
I lived that lifestyle for 12 years in the 90s through early 00's. From Alaska to Kentucky. It was wonderful as a healthy kid. I use a wheelchair now and need quiet stability. But all of this is very true. I love the culture. The kind spirits out west.
i know nomads who live out here on the road with canrs, walkers, and/or mobility scooters. it takes more time to do things, but we are rich in time.
i've watched people grow physically and mentally healthier living this simple, outdoors, supremely more stressfree way of life.
*this comment is not for crystal, who is doing what works for her, but to everyone out there who wants this lifestyle but thinks that they just can't. you can.
Bob was fantastic in this scene! Wow! Just so powerful...
'THE LAND OF THE FREE. -- BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE". Marvellous!
Well deserved Oscar! 🙌 Bravo
Love any movie Frances is in
It was so fun to be an extra in this movie and now to see it getting all the accolades it deserves. It's a brilliantly told story of one woman's experience.
Hey Carolyn! I saw you! 👏👏👏💐💐💐❤️🇬🇧
Can't wait to watch it.
Did it show you e- begging?
She's at it again ME, ME, ME, I, I ,I , enough already
Wash that dirty hair please
„If you ain't got nothing, you got nothing to lose“ Great movie, great actors, great story.
Until I saw this movie, I never understood my dad. He could never settle down in one place, no matter how nice the house was or the town. He was brilliant and well off, but in later life he lived in a van. After he died I found paperwork from Quartzsite, Arizona, and wondered what in the world was in Quartzsite. My brother and I drove there and stood in a desert - where there was nothing. Now we know he was at the RTR. He was a tumble weed in life and now is a free spirit still traveling down the road.
Awesome story about your Dad. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful 💓🦋💓
i wish i knew him. -- love from my dog and me, in my van parked today somewhere in the new mexican desert sunshine, overlooking a vast, ancient, black lava flow.
@@nonyabizness.original Say hello to everybody at the “ Slabs” will ya ?
@@frederickmuhlbauer9477 never been, but i hope to wander there one day.
This film is amazing.
The entire crew and cast are amazing.
Chloe is amazing.
Frances is amazing.
Joshua is amazing
Even this behind the scene video is amazing. My gosh. I can’t love this whole thing enough. ❤️❤️🍀
I always love this type of storytelling where every person either caste or a crew is very integral part of the making. Commitment from every every person from every department, make this film a masterpiece. cheers to Nomadland team and cheers to Film Making..
@@janetownley I think you and I have something in common.....we’re both really sick and tired of people not being able to spell even simple words correctly or use correct grammar. I mean, WTH happened to education in America?!? Really a sad situation
My only comment that might be taken wrong is that Too bad that Fern could not have looked more happy. All these people say how amazing it is to live this life yet every scene she looks like her child has just died. The movie did not being me joy or desire to want to do this, Even though I have already decided this will be my future. It brought heaviness to my heart..her face, her character, the way it was filmed, the darkness, the despair . FYI Just how it made me feel...and I know others will see it differently. A friend sent me a text said I should watch it, which I already had...I said yeah it was very sad, and she said it was happy too. So we all look at things in a different light. I wish everyone out there the best and perhaps one day I can join you, once the borders re open..Canadian winters are not desirable!
Fern was mourning the loss of her husband as well as adjusting to a nomadic life that she hadn’t planned on. I think Francis nailed the performance perfectly. Life is full of every emotion and the movie gave me the sense that the Fern character was slowly coming into feelings of happiness again.
We have no idea what the people in the film have been through. Life has been difficult for some people who are now Nomads. Even though they come and go as they like and see a beautiful country there are some Nomads that have to worry about the high costs of food and fuel, have lost jobs, maybe lost family members, or are just trying to survive.
@susanstillwell6305 Frances was acting... that is how she saw the character. There are other people who live the Nomad Life in the movie.
Just watched in Hongkong today, speechless. Great movie that shows true humanity and prime values with great details, congratulations!
Frances McDormand is a legend...she won 3 Three Best Actress Oscar Statuette .......Congratulations......in tied with Daniel Day Lewis in 3 Oscar Best Actor.....Remarkable achievement.......
Not only the three Acting Oscars, but a fourth one as she was one of the producers.
Kudos to Frances McDormand for putting the life style and challenges on the map. For some, being nomadic or desert life is by choice. For others, it's due to life-altering circumstances. McDormand enhanced the lives of Chloe, locals and many more. A journey of enlightenment, reflection, sadness, uncertainty and discovery.
Nice..This was very nice to see.
The General identity of a Nomad should never be sought as Sympathetic. Its only Natural that the self reliance of the Human condition cannot be caged no matter what reasons people end up as Nomads. This Condition goes as far back as Pioneers. People in General want an Identity. A strong Prosperous Country needs Nomads. They are a hidden strength that of the Pioneering Nomad is as important as a Trucker, oil Rigger, Carpenter.etc etc...Most people with Normal lives don't realize how they are supported by Nomads in industrious abd or Farm environments behind the scenes. Kuddos to Expediting, Truckers , Nomads, or just Traveling Saleman. Thankyou..You all play a role in our American Way Of Life.
the ending of this movie left me empty, I feel those moments of stillness... taking on the road, life feels surreal.
Best movie ever! So real, so true and so beautiful-fellow nomad.
It’s always good to agree with the Acadamy awards for choosing this film as it’s best film...
Twice, I have briefly been to Quartzite, Arizona, and both times off of prime season. In my very limited exposure, I find it is a combination of interesting and bizarre - nomads and wealthy 'snowbirds', along with seasonally alternating sparse/dense populations. One of the more bizarre statistics is the VAST seasonal fluctuation of people living there. In prime season (roughly November through mid April), the population can reportedly swell to around 700,000. Yet in the heat of Summer, the number of residents drops more than two hundredfold to ~3,000. There are 5 lane roads that are jammed bumper to bumper, yet lie virtually abandoned later on. Restaurants and stores which are packed for months, yet close annually for ~6 months for lack of customers. It is eerie to think of an entire town's population just leaving, only to return ~6 months later.
A minority are nomadic. But from what I saw, most are proverbial 'snowbirds' who either have an inexpensive mobile home there as a second home in order to get away from colder climates, or have pretty expensive motor homes, and fifth wheels, and pay for an RV spot which has water, power, sewer, and possibly internet hookups, show no sign of financial privation, and also likely have a home elsewhere.
True nomads, as portrayed in this film, are very unlikely to confine themselves to the tightly packed RV parks with expensive RV hookups. Nomads will live on the outskirts of Quartzite if/when they elect to visit Quartzite because the BLM land surrounding Quartzite (Bureau of Land Management) is extensive, mostly free to camp on and mostly free of RV improvements/hookups for vehicles.
A lot of people are shocked at this lifestyle but many people do this willingly, especially young people. There's an indie film called The Meaning of Van Life which details young people doing this in Australia. There is another movie called Minimalism which questions the American dream notion of materialism and how we work at jobs we don't it even like and go into debt and buy things we don't even want in order to keep up with the Joneses. Material things will not make you happy! Relationships and human connections, enjoying things that cannot be bought, is what life is all about. Now, I don't buy hardly anything and I'm saving up all of my money and figuring out ways to get rid of everything that I don't want or use or need.
It saves the environment, by reducing landfields. In addition, avoiding wood consumption diminish demand and logging in The Amazon and Gabon. It is a pity to see Brazilian wood flooring...it decimates The Amazons.
I was always fascinated by the tumbleweeds blowing across the Prairie when I was a boy and wondering where it came from and where it was going. It’s kind of like a nomad, and when I was 12 or 13 I saw my first hobos on trains and It made me think of the tumbleweeds.
This film takes a bit of fear out of my life.
I have seen this picture without seeing it!!! Understand??? I follow a few of these nomads on uTube!!! Cheers to them all!!!!
I do understand but the movie is worth seeing, a very good movie.
I was looking for Ausia and Moo Moo and Teri and Scotty. Too old to be a Nomad myself but I enjoy riding along with them and have a few favorites, Nomadic Fanatic and CamperVan Kevin and his three little Yorkies.
It is an excellent movie!!
I've always been facinated by this type of life. These people seem truly free and most of them seem happy regardless of their situation. I think a life like this forces you to focus on simplicity and teaches you how to be a decent human being. I'm only 38 but I hope that one day soon I can experience this life on personally. Life is meant to be lived and enjoyed.
I loved this movie so much because I identify with being a Senior and alone. Have an RV, hope to meet everyone in January.
Fascinating watching this from an Australian free spirit/van dweller perspective... Bob Well's is someone I choose to admire big time, an absolute inspiration and motivation to so many people doing it tough... Here in Australia, thankfully things are not as fucked up as the USA... The minimum wage, despite the conservative "Republican wannabe" Morrison federal government, is still livable and the health and social security safety net, has not been as of yet totally dismantled... Tax payer funded corporate welfare is apparently justifiable, "but to hell with the peasants", who the current federal government "creatures", forget also happen to vote... Sincere best wishes to everyone out there, from an Australian former idealist...
Such an amazing movie and people💞 Love Frances, so happy she won!!
Life journeys is about choice, There is no right or wrong but Fear Or Brave....
It reminds me of "The Grapes of Wrath." Never thought there would be another like that one.. .
When you try to get a cup of coffee at an arco gas station and you get treat it as "rude" by security guard you try not to became wrath more visible for so many things hitting you at once, I still find heal in hope in see a gooooooood movie as this looks just from seen bit of it. 👍👍👍✨. Is not what I plan but shit happens and rude is the modest word to a place in this place.
San Bernardino CA.19:27pm CA . 😘🇺🇸 I respect this place and I understand more of what happens around me.
Thing is the Okies & Arkies had a designation they we were reaching for - The Promised Land here in CenCal.
History doesn't repeat, but it rhymes. Great book and movie in its time and on into ours.
@@reyesyanez5405 ..... Compa the whole of East California ( from top to bottom) is a wild & woolly place. I’m a PrunePicker & have lived all over Califas & by far EAST*CAL is the place to be😂👊🏽 Stay trucha
Congratulations on winning the Oscars ..Fern, loved how you can share a new world and capture life as it is...
We loved the movie. We've been full time Nomads since 2015 and from our experiences this is a very accurate movie. The popular conception that we are all 20 something and living off a trust fund is just advertising to get that demographic to buy a new van.
Wonderful way to connect , explore, travel & working your way when need. Take care of each other & I just retired back to Vancouver Island. So this is very interesting ideas for my road trip I'm planning. Keep on camping and trucking.
Great respect to frances mc dormand and chloe zhao masterpiece movie ... this is how i feel every day all alone as single no girl no wife and kids i survived all alone as single great movie i love it
God alone suffices
@@wjackm72 true true
This film was unforgettable and makes you examine your own life and relationships.
That is a wonderful film. I will go and watch it again for a second time.
This Nomad life that we see in America on a large scale,,,I think it will be WORLDWIDE, from now 2021 to .........
At the moment, we’ll, the last three years, I have been stationary yet living in my horse trailer. I talk about the nomadic lifestyle as often as I can to anyone who will listen and am surprised when over time, at the laundromat or grocery store, someone will recognize me and ask if I am still living in my trailer or say, you are the nomad lady! I live in central Texas and feel like a celebrity!
Do you have ponies?
@@LilyGazou three but they are aged
I just watched the trailer. I must see this movie. I have a feeling after reading comments that this story of NOMANDLAND is going to be a correlation to my life. Fran McDormand's remarks at the Oscars compelled me to want to research further into this movie "Thank you"
I finally watched this movie today..🙂
I’m neither homeless nor houseless. I am just a vanless non- American, stuck firmly in my seemingly safe house 24/7
especially during the coronavirus era. So, I have to admit that I have no way to know physically about any sort of nomad
culture . This three Oscars winning film showed me a whole new strange side of America I have hardly been familiar
with. This doesn't mean that I've had any sort of special illusions about nomad life, but one thing is for sure: there is so much
uncertainty all over the place today and yet most of us try to live the best life we can in our own way, no matter we are
nomadic or not.
People in this movie are mostly in their twilight years and share a collective sense of loss and sorrow which doesn't
necessarily look sad. They are not hopeless under the weight of life, seemingly looking quite satisfied with who and
what they are, free from possession of material , with good old memories or sad ones carried in their hearts, feeling responsible for their loved ones, dead or
alive. It's a movie, isn't it? Fern knows how to make her time with her dead husband so very precious though her solo nomadic life doesn't
seem to have started from her ichy feet . That must be partly what helped Frances McDormand take home the best actress award. The nomadic life
Fern and her friends enjoy(?) is certainly different from what the characters in Jack Kerouac 's novel "On the Road"
enjoy, but they all have one thing in common: longing for a new life- that is a way of life for them..
Best movie of 2020
Probably not just 2020. Best movie in a really long time...
I absolutely loved this movie.
We are so looking forward to seeing this movie. So glad it won so many accolades.
Just when I had given up on storytelling through film, this comes along and at a time when the United States of America is fibrillating in its purpose, but has found life and a heartbeat again.
To live means to risk breaking like a 🌊, over and over on it's shores.
Remember this life style is for people who are healthy enough to travel without doctor trip's once a week or once a month ..with no meds and no addiction's with at least 1000 a month income plus you will need back up money for repairs.
I earn less than 1000 and I’ve lived happily in my for 2.5 years. It’s possible. 👍
Back to reality 😂😂
Not true. I have a chronic illness am living on disability and I am a full time nomad. My rheumatologist does telehealth appointments and forwards my prescriptions to whichever town I’m heading to. If I’m not doing well, I take as much time off the road as I need to rest and recover. It makes it more challenging, but it’s do-able. In fact it’s my only option as I can’t afford a house anymore. If you believe you can, you’re halfway there! 😍
@@lisawanderess That’s awesome and hope giving. I wish you all the best 🍀🍀🍀🍀
Lisa , when I was a kid back in the day I mean a long time ago hehehe we called these nomad's Hobo's
This was an excellent movie! So true and real. I love Bob Wells was included. I am a fan of his. My heart goes out to the disabled and unfunctional seniors that can not do this. What happens to them?
I was happiest when I own nothing but what I can pack in a backpack and living in my suburban traveling and hiking seeing new places my only worry was someone braking in my suburban or getting towed, but I'll still have my backpack my dog and a thumb with high spirits to keep going.
Thank you for this work of art-mirrors-life/life-mirrors-art, film. Timely. Important. Brilliant.
Is it human to be enslave by the unsafe conditions in amazon warehouses.
Josh was ribbed! He should have won the Oscar for Cinematographer!
This incredible film made me cry like a baby.
While the acting was exceptional, I found this to be one of the most depressing movies I've ever seen. I get that a some of these people are folks that would rather not settle down. I get that they got to see stuff and travel but I thought it showed how much America doesn't care about its residents. Seemed like many seniors just being left to die in some cornfield, as long as no one had to be bothered with them. It sure wasn't inspirational to me. And America is exceptional? Exceptionally heartless to many of its lost citizens it seems we have no time for. America will always try to make any sad situation look glorious and trendy when what we really have is millions of people we've chosen to forget about. At times we are just a pathetic country . . .
They had a narrative. What you don’t see is the true heart, the creativity and imagination, the generosity and energy. There are intentional communities out here, they don’t advertise themselves. .
It's quickly coming down to this for more and more people. The American dream has turned into a horror story. Our last months utility bills, insurance, and taxes were so shocking. We can not maintain our meager home at this rate.
P.S. Gas prices and shirtages are another threat to this freedom.
Put on your anthropologist hat and walk a mile with these people. Listen to their stories, see the world thru their eyes, consider the natural world that they inhabit, and then walk out your door and take a really long, honest look at your own environment. At the daily content of your life. Is it the life you have made because it is what you most want out of life, or is it the life that you have settled for because you don't see any other way?
This movie is not a How To video for creating a more fulfilling lifestyle. It is but one example of how other people have created a life for themselves from their own needs, choices & resources. It is a reminder that we humans have enormous creative potential, that we are social animals with needs similar to other primates, that the Earth is a big place on which to roam, and that "enough is as good as a feast".
This movie is a feast for the human soul, dried up, stressed out & half dead from running in a daily rat race inside a hamster wheel - staring at an ever changing computer screen...
I feel with the inflation and housing/rent going through the roof right now we are going to see more and more people living a nomadic life.
The very suggestion that people over 65 work at an Amazon 'fulfillment' center or do beet harvesting is almost a cruel joke. Nearly everyone begins to have some joint damage and arthritis in their sixties. Doing long hours of repetitive, physical work will only accelerate that wear and tear. Van dwelling, even in a nice, new vehicle is a challenge for most seniors, unless you have the funds for a million dollar RV. It's a good movie, but it is just a movie. Zhao did show us some of the hardships, but I believe it is harder than portrayed in the film.
Exactly. That kind of work was hard enough to do in our 20's. No thanks, I worked so I don't have to do that now.
An amazing movie. Thank you ! This is my tribe…
I would love to have this type of adventure/life. Don't think my vehicle would make it that far. But I can watch y'all. Thank you
congrat director Chloe Zhao
Im 45 year old man and would love to live life lived by Fern in the movie "Nomadland" but would like to travel World in a TATA Safari...after some age we are the traveller and would like to travel World quietly, silently...end of this movie is very sad
Congratulations 🎉 a modern day biography of many unique beautiful peoples - many survivors and inspiring stories.
( many of these people I have followed for years - congratulations 🎉)
LOVED IT!! Been following on u-Tube during the pandemic! LOVED IT !!
Wonderful movie loved it
I think this is wonderful, and I will be a Nomad in a couple of years, God Willing; it also scares me. I am afraid of today's political environment and worried the government will enforce their will and laws on free people. I live in Canada, and the government here is overstepping individual freedoms, so where will it end? Make NO mistake, the government wants you dependent on them; that way, it gets a say in what you do.
My apologies; I didn't mean to take away from this excellent documentary and these courageous, beautiful people.
These people (mostly seniors) worked their entire lives, most responsibly, Only to resort to living in a van and having to work odd jobs. Sure there are perks, traveling and seeing beautiful sights, but DO NOT let those perks overtake the reality that these nomads are surviving, not just traveling around and seeing the country. This country and society is crumbling to a dystopian future they made movies about.
The inflation on food and gas prices is definitely going to have an effect.
Watch out for when the Law of Unintended Consequences strikes full time vanlifers because of the attention this movie will bring. Communities, cities, and even states will pass laws to crack down and restrict living in vehicles on their streets, long term camping in their parks.
Many who think they are stealthy really aren't.
There's a war going on between urban power structures and people living in vehicles--and homeless in general. Today the City and police destroyed a homeless camp in Toronto Ontario and made the homeless truly 'homeless'! There must be a way to reconcile this but first the fear by Society in general must be conquered. Homeless humans deserve our love--if not respect!
@@marktwain368 There is a difference between the Nomad homeless by circumstance and Nomad homeless by choice. People will naturally resent Nomads who come to use facilities in their area, but who never contribute towards paying for them. Also, there are enough Nomads out their who give a bad name to all by their actions and disrespect for communities in which they camp. Respect is a two way street.
Amazing movie!
This is beautiful ❤️
Loved the book... loved the movie
Loved this movie but I wanted to see more of the nomadic pioneers I admire your spirits
Great lifestyle. I found it during 2005, a bit out of necessity but realized the huge benefits. I have a totally offgrid luxury rig. And I still do business. All at a much cheaper price. My rig and business cost much more than an upmarket home in an upmarket suburb. But most of all freedom!
this is a paradigm shift in movie production.
Im on my way...now I have places 2 check out.
im looking to go traveling in Europe next year, im currently converting a Citroen HY van , cant wait....
Awesome. Look forward to seeing the movie. But happy I built my own little house on an island almost thirty years ago. Solar powered. Fifty grand. So probably wont see any of these guys down the road.
An island sounds ideal.
The good thing about this film is that it is showing way...
The negative thing is that it is being found out of desperation in a country where options have disappeared.
Why are kids living at home till age 30? A van is a perfect way to strike out.
I followed the making of this film but I have not seen it yet. Cinemas are closed, it is not on Netflix. I moved to HBO and it is not there. I feel the tumultuous changes that are happening in this country are going largely unreported. My elderly mother had good credit, a down payment and she was sold a sub-prime mortgage. The interest re-adjusted beyond her pension and it killed her. The bank was there within a month.
Poverty porn seems a fitting way to describe it. People with a stock portfolio and a secure home, view Nomandland with curious interest but not identification. On TH-cam you see many trustfunders sky diving, riding jetski in far off exotic locations or building novelty homes.
Have not viewed the film yet, totally loved this!! ❤️
I lived in a motorhome for 3 years traveling Northern California and Oregon....If I am ever able to get another RV its the life I want ...I wish I could of gone to Quartzside with my dad he use to go there to prospect for gold....He found some gold and would sell It to Knotts Berry Farm
living my life vicariously
There's no final goodbye.
Thank you for this.
From the Conspirituality podcast; a very insightful review, examination of Nomadland; what was in the book, but left out of the movie:

Life is tough but enjoyable
So sweet . Beautiful.
I can’t wait to see Nomadland. We are living in a world 🌍 of disenfranchisement. This doesn’t mean we necessarily lose our right to grow, explore or live fully as we age.
I found it boring and dirty...it’s perfect to be doing a sport like a trail runner ( former ultra runner) as I did meet other runners but just to sit and live in a vehicle is scary.. I live from hotel to hotel ...makes me feel like a house less Californian .., reminds me of pursuit of happiness....
I watched the movie....I'm also a nomad, a retired trucker.
Was that quartzsite Arizona?
Yes
