Review Quotes
- "Williams' performance is remarkable not only for its depth but for its stillness. Whether in long shot or extreme close-up, she barely disturbs the movie's lyrical compositions, beautifully filmed by Sam Levy. Reichardt often pushes her to the edge of the frame, literally marginalizing her, as if she were about to fall off the edge of the world."—Sam Adams, Los Angeles TimesLos Angeles Times: Review: Wendy and Lucy (December 12, 2008)
- "The story could not be more timely, with a financially strapped young Everywoman pushed to the margins of society. Wendy and Lucy is an evocative film with a believable and subtly enthralling lead performance that gets deeply under your skin."—Claudia Piug, USA TodayUSA Today: Wendy is Rich is Dismay, Hope (December 9, 2008)
