It did touch me in a way I didn't expect. "Wendy and Lucy" is a very bittersweet movie about loss; we don't know why Wendy is where she is, we can just hypotize she had problems with her family so she now wants to get to Alaska to start a new life.

And Lucy and her car are all she has. I found the movie being really realistic. Our society is so money-based that if you're left with no money then you have a problem; we still don't know why Lucy was in that horrible, sad situation but that's why this movie turned out to be so special.

Wendy was ready to sacrifice everything for the one being she loved: Lucy. Very sweet, and very sady. Michelle Williams in unrecognizable in here, she did a great job and I'm surprised nboody noticed her effort; this might be one of her best roles to the date.

I'd recommend it.
