Reverential and offbeat, the road trip film Private lives of Pippa Lee takes emotional detours and is elevated by great performances, particularly that of Robin Wright-Penn.

As a woman under the influence of everyone but herself, Pippa often feels lost when she's on her own - a blank slate with no one holding a chalk - Robin Wright Penn allows us to get to know a character who still doesn't really know herself. July 4, 2010 | Rating: 7.1/10 | Full Review…

There's a deliberate quality to the storytelling that makes the movie drag in many scenes; and yet, numerous characters flit by that we don't have time to really meet. February 26, 2010 | Rating: 2/4

By turns antic, frantic, and dull, Pippa Lee is unconvincing -- emotionally, dramatically, filmically. December 4, 2009 | Rating: C- | Full Review…

There is an episodic quality to the film that doesn't quite work, but Robin Wright Penn's strong central performance and Miller's capable screenplay deftly navigate the familiar trajectory of the story. August 5, 2019 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

Penn is such an intelligent performer that it's easy for us to believe everyone else in the film sees a different side -- a different life -- of the enigmatic Pippa Lee -- and that there are still many other sides to this fascinating character... January 22, 2010 | Rating: 3/4
