WENDY AND LUCY (2008) *** Michelle Williams gives a stand-out performance as a young woman whose life is in turnaround due to unknowing circumstances which has caused her to drift seemingly aimlessly across the country to her goal in landing a job in an Alaskan cannery with her only friend in tow, her loving dog. Filmmaker Kelly Reichardt who co-scripted with Jonathan Raymond depicts the harsh realities of a homeless woman's plight in attempting to maintain her dignity, stamina and self-assurance is only buoyed by Williams' bravura poignant turn speaking volumes in her nuanced depiction of a woman unknowingly journeying into despair.
