Warning. Marley & Me this ain't.

Yes, Wendy and Lucy does feature a cute Lab (the Lucy in the title) much like the one in the upcoming Jennifer Aniston flick, but that's pretty much where the similarities begin and end between that silly-antics-filled romp and this more serious, seemingly depressing, indie starring Michelle Williams.

In the trailer, we follow Michelle's rather morose (actually, make that very morose) Wendy, who, while trying to make her way to Alaska, encounters trouble every step of the way—trouble with her car, trouble with the law, trouble with her family and, ugh, even trouble with her dog. Not to mention having to interact with some creepy dude with icky teeth.

So what do you think? Are you up for a downer, or is dinner with the in-laws this holiday season gonna be torture enough?
