Holiday cheer got you too cheery?  Worried that you may be too happy this week?

Then I can recommend you get to your local art movie house to see Wendy and Lucy.  It’s the story of Wendy (Michelle Williams) who is traveling with her dog Lucy to Alaska.  In Oregon her car breaks down.  Things start go downhill after that, as Wendy has absolutely no financial wiggle room.  Except for a drug-store security guard, no one in the crappy little town feels like helping her or giving her a break.  She loses her dog.  She looks for her dog.

All in all, I can safely say that Wendy and Lucy is, paws-down, the Feel Bad Movie of 2008.  Don’t miss it!
