Leprechaun K @LeprechaunKing Dec 16 A raw and authentic movie about a women who is lost with no direction, and wanders through life not caring what happens next (hence "Wanda"). Wonderfully written and directed by Loden, who also plays the protagonist and delivers a memorable performance. There are no redeeming qualities of the character but yet her onscreen presence demands sympathy. A movie that reminds us all life struggles do not have to be eventful. See more Scott M Jan 4 Barbara Lowden has been quoted, saying this movie is an autobiographical story of her life. Every guy is trying to sleep with her. Nobody likes her. She hates her job. She hates her kids. Her life is an exercise in futility. I had more respect for her bank robber boyfriend. At least he did something. See more @Lakeman 07/10/2021 Well, I saw it, now I don't have to see it again. Too much 'House of Hummingbird' going on here with the relentless bleakness, utterly dour misery; and the emptiness of this character. Are we supposed to think being poor means you're automatically dimwitted and hopeless, by and large? Or is it mostly a character study of a pathetic and very frustrating person? Hell, the jerk petty criminal was more interesting. As one insightful critic commented, "The trouble with aimless drifter stories is that too often they result in aimless movies.". 2.7 stars See more mert s 01/15/2021 What kind of stupidity was this.... whatever the hell you want to explain do it in a 5/10 min b&w crap. This was horrible... i dont even think this will get better....if it does will change my rating. But for now it doesnt deserve a 1/2 star. Rotten See more 01/02/2021 This a grimy story of a grimy woman from a grimy coal-mining town leading a grimy existence with a grimy small-time domineering crook. It's a movie without a soundtrack that is defined as much by its creepy long silences as any dialog or action. Barbara Loden wrote, directed, a and starred in it. She's convincing as a woman without a direction, witless, guileless, easily manipulated by the cruel, demeaning crook in another fine performance by Michael Higgins. This is one that will stick with you for a long time. See more 09/18/2019 Una película con un inicio muy difícil de sobrellevar debido a su paso lento, pero a medida que nos adentramos en la vida de Wanda, vemos la soledad, una verdadera soledad en el mundo urbano, en donde las necesidades básicas se vuelven el premio al final del día, y la torpeza y falta de convicción del personaje principal, hace muy difícil verla irse a dormir y levantarse a la mañana siguiente.
