Day 2311 | Movie #33 Wendy And Lucy (2008)


Image


I started a challenge of taking 100 days off to mainly focus on my health and overall personal development and used this account as a personal blog to keep track of all my activity. I enjoyed it and continued afterward trying to build better habits and find a good balance between Health, Fitness, Work, Watching Movies, and my Personal Life...

Movie #33: Wendy and Lucy (7.3/10)

A few days ago, I watched a Youtube Video from Karsten Runquist (Link) with a list of his favorite movie from each year since 1997 which gave me a ton of new movies to discover. One of them was Wendy and Lucy from 2008. Saturday evening was a good moment for me to watch a movie and given that this mone is only 80 Minutes, it was a perfect fit for the time that I had. I went in completely blind not knowing what it was going to be about which wasn't a disadvantage or an advantage for all that I know.

The story is pretty simple about a women (Wendy) who is on a roadtrip in her old car along with her dog (Lucy) a to Alaska to posibly find work there during though economic times (2008). She ends up losing her dog in a town she stopped at and things aren't exactly going the way she had them planned. This is pretty much the movie without any major plotlines just a simple real-life situation that could easily happen.

The type of movie very much reminded me of Showing Up which I watched earlier this year and scored a solid 7.5. It also turns out to be from the same Director so it definately is a style. I would get why many see "average-day-snapshot-movies" like this as a non-event but I tend to like them just because they very much resemble real life without the need to exagerrate just because it's a movie and the majority of the audience demands it. It's about financial struggle, the feeling of having lost a friend and making some though choices. Overall I score this one a 7.3 out of 10 and I'm glad that I watched it with the intention to look for more movies from the same director. Definatelty not for everyone though.

Aside from this, it was a regular Saturday mostly being occupied with the football matches while still struggling to eat healthy pushing it always 1 day further which isn't helping my weight.I also skipped on a lunchbreak hot yoga class.
