Oscars 2020 special: Nomadland

In this special episode of Heroic Purgatory, we are taking a break from our coverage Asian cinema in the 90s to discuss the 2020 Best Picture Oscar winner, Nomadland, directed by Chloe Zhao. We discuss the film's merits as a work of social criticism along with its philosophical musings about the beauty and harshness of the "nomad" lifestyle.  Timestamps: 2:02 Introduction 2:58 Media Consumption 10:53 News 16:24 Film Discussion Website link: https://heroic-purgatory.blogspot.com/2021/05/oscars-2020-special-nomadland.html Follow the show on Twitter: https://twitter.com/HeroicPurgatory Follow Jason: https://twitter.com/filmnohito Follow John: https://twitter.com/mildly_scifi
