LOS ANGELES: Frances McDorman’s Oscar-tipped road movie “Nomadland” raced from Venice to Toronto to California on Friday as major global festivals joined forces to jump-start the pandemic-struck film industry.
The movie about a community of elderly, nomadic idealists who roam across America in worn-out vans was greeted by raucous honking horns and flashing headlights at a drive-in US premiere in Pasadena, on the outskirts of Los Angeles.
Hours earlier, double Oscar-winner McDormand had received loud applause in Venice for her role as a widow forced to take to the road after a mine closes, wiping her tiny community from the map.
The movie has received glowing reviews, with the Hollywood Reporter calling it “a unique portrait of outsider existence.”
