'Nomadland': Film Review | Venice 2020

In her two previous features, Songs My Brother Taught Me and The Rider, Chloé Zhao established a spiritual connection to the American West, with its immense skies and wide-open landscapes that speak equally of desolate solitude and of freedom. Working primarily with nonprofessional actors playing versions of themselves, she specializes in stories carved into the bones of her characters, their communities and the remotes spaces they inhabit.

Film Review: Chloé Zhao’s ‘Nomadland’ Starring Frances McDormand

Todd McCarthy Go-her-own-way director Chloé Zhao closes out her exceptional trilogy about the dispossessed and left-behind in the modern American West with Nomadland, a cool, contemplative look at contemporary American outcasts whose foothold in society grows more precarious with every passing year. Zhao acutely observed the travails, bad luck and diminishing prospects of modern Lakota Indians and an injured young rodeo rider in, respectively, Songs My Brothers Taught Me (2015) and The Rider (2017), both of which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival’s Directors’ Fortnight.

In almost no way does Chloé Zhao‘s quiet, enormous, deep breath of a movie, “Nomadland,” resemble “Blade Runner.” Except there’s this one moment: an outstanding speech in a film as attuned to vast wild silences as to conversation. Fern (Frances McDormand) is talking to her friend and fellow nomad Swankie (played, like many of the other roles by the real person on whom she is based).

Hollywood Films Are Dominated by Straight White Men and New Oscar Rules May Not Help

Brent Lang Executive Editor of Film and MediaIf you watched a movie in 2019, chances are that it was a story about a straight white man made by a filmmaker who was also straight, white, and male.A survey of the top 100 highest grossing movies from USC Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism, found that only 32 featured leading or co-leading characters from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups, a modest increase from 27 films in 2018. Forty three of the 100 biggest box office hits had a girl or woman in a leading or co-leading role, a slight bump from 39 in 2018.
