B-

The existential musings sometimes border on overt melancholy, yes; but they thankfully never overstay their welcome. And for a first-time director in Chmielewski, that’s an achievement in itself.

Roving Woman is that thoughtful, poetic tale ... showcases the beauty and tranquility of the desert and that opportunity to lose oneself in its hypnotic presence and drive aimlessly.

'Roving Woman' never loses sight of what makes this film special, by combining a pitch perfect performance and road trip dynamics, into an exploration of contemporary Americana.

"Roving Woman" may travel far, but it comes full circle in a profoundly satisfying way.

Given the ambiguity of Sara’s entire journey, it may let the audience think about what would happen if they were in her shoes.

Well intentioned, but kind of meaningless. A young woman is kicked out of the house she shares with her boyfriend. She walks around, hitchhikes some and finds at a gas station a Camry with the keys in the ignition, so she takes off. Eventually, she gets to the owner’s address, who is a young male loner. Even before ICE, they share a dislike of the police. No romance is sparked. He allows her to keep the car and she takes off. The End. No indication that Toyota financed this film. I happen to live with a woman who is a goody two-shoes and buys a series of Camrys that she drives for a year or two and then donates to her many nieces and nephews. No movie about her, yet.
