If you loved Certain Women, try Wendy and Lucy
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Kelly Reichardt, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Certain Women, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Wendy and Lucy is
Two-Lane Blacktop without the car. A woman and her dog are traveling to Alaska for a fresh start when car trouble strands them in Oregon. Reichardt's gift for understated character studies shines through simple storytelling.
