Movie Haiku:Williams will absolutely break your heart here as "Wendy," a young woman in a battered old car trying to make it cross-country with only her dog "Lucy" for company. Williams is in every scene, tightly scrutinzed by still mysterious. Where did she come from & where is she going? Everything is present tense--we will never know.
