Vanlife: The Movie

[rltilley]

I have the book Nomadland to read here but I haven't read it yet. It looks like it is now a movie. While not the glamorous side of "vanlife" this could be an interesting movie.

Discussion elsewhere indicates the book is different and better but that the movie itself is quite good, beautiful to look at and not condescending to those in the life.

If Frances McDormand is in it I will watch it. She's never made a bad movie.

My wife and I watched it last week and I wouldn't say that it was as good as I had hoped.Haven't read the book so cant tell you how it compares. I felt it was a little depressing at times but with the story behind it that was understandable.

I quite liked the book. Haven't seen the movie.

I saw the movie last week, as well. I haven't read the book, yet (on order through abebooks.com). The basic story line of the protagonist is depressing in its own right and really not a reflection on van life. I must say, for me, this was the kind of movie that changes you. Rare these days.
