3. It is on my list

I love Frances McDormond. She is always outstanding. Thanks for bringing this up. I may be able to catch it this weekend!

5. That looks interesting to me but I

was wondering if it was a bunch of "rugged individualists/trump supporters" spouting off. Yes? No?

[KarenS]

6. no,,, politics was not mentioned,,,,

it's more about folks that were/are in a bad place financially and choosing to live in older RVs or Vans instead of living with family or friends,,,, they are a community that exists in our society today. They travel to find work,,,,

11. I liked it.

Deserved best picture win. This movie from 1979 sort of predicted it. Anyone remember it?

12. You are like so many! I personally thought it was extremely

depressing and sad. She didn't even have to be in the circumstance she was in, but she chose it. I know this happens every day, but still an enormously sad movie. IMHO
