The TVI Take
Kelly Reichardt's 2008 breakthrough film anchored by Michelle Williams as a woman traveling to Alaska in search of work whose car breaks down in a small Oregon town and whose dog Lucy goes missing. The structural commitment to letting working-poor-American-cognitive-register be the actual subject — at sub-90-minute scale — established Reichardt as the canonical Pacific-Northwest indie director.
