Nomadland won two Golden Globes, one for the film and one for its director, Chloé Zhao, and it’s been nominated for 6 Oscars. If you’ve seen the movie, then you know about the real-life character, Swankie Wheels. She’s one of the growing population of “van dwellers” or “rubber tramps,” who, out of choice or necessity, no longer have a house to call home. We ran across her in Arroyo Grande during the filming of CALL ME MULE. Below is a clip with Swankie from my behind-the-scenes VIDEO DIARY.
This is great!!
