Watching an American film,"Nomadland"

 I had been a big fan of The Academy awards since I was 13 years old. I was used to guess the awards before I couldn't even watch some nominated films in Japan and hand over the paper I wrote my bet to my mother until the oscars day when I was a teenager. Anyway, I was looking forward to watching a this year's sure bet film,"Nomadland". I recently watched it. Because  I had been a long movie buff wastefully, some scenes of this film reminds me of some films such as "Days of Heaven", ”The Whale of August", and, a French film, " Vagabond ”  I have a common with a leading role's husband liked DIY for a car(So does my husband), therefore, I started to synchronize Frances Macdormand's character in this film. But, Not her, I felt relieved to watch her sister's home and realized I can't live like this film. I was fully enjoyed this calm, big and beautiful American nature scenery film which recapture my past that one kind old couple in Cali...

R.I.P the French film director, Bertrand Tavernier

 I was sad to read an obituary of a French film director, Bertrand Tavernier last month. My first his film was "Un dimanche à la campagne" on a television. There was a midnight television program aired an arthouse movie weekly.  It was a good opportunity for a moneyless school girl to watch some great movies which I didn't know at that time.  

"Un dimanche à la campagne" was a story of a quiet but dramatic daily life of one old artist. There was a several black moments which the director studied the black color carefully.  It was a picturesque film.

I was very impressed by this film and went to see his film,"Round Midnight" at the movie theater with my mother. This film taught me how musician profession is a hard work for life.

R.I.P Monsieur  Bertrand Tavernier
