'Nomadland' producer credits Chloe Zhao's 'alchemy and wizardry' for film's realism

Nomadland producer credits Chloe Zhao s alchemy and wizardry for film s realism The film Nomadland feels like a documentary even though it s a fictional account that follows actress Frances McDormand s journey across America, from the jobs she works to the people she encounters.  Rancho Mirage resident Peter Spears, one of the film s producers, told The Desert Sun that s part of the alchemy and wizardry of Chloé Zhao s vision for shooting the film.  Nomadland won three Oscars for Best Picture, Best Director and Best Actress. Spears shared the Best Picture win with Zhao and producers McDormand, Mollye Asher and Dan Janvey.  The film is adapted from the 2017 nonfiction book of the same name by Jessica Bruder that chronicles older Americans who live transient lifestyles, move from place to place in the United States and take up seasonal work.
