The Road Traveled to Find Answers about the Road Traveled
All Over
Presented by: The Fugitives
Writer: Elizabeth Audley
Director: Jack Young
Summary:
In between jobs and desperately seeking meaning in her life, Elizabeth Audley decided to drive across the country in her car (named Timmy) to find it. She recounts places she visited and much of the self analysis she put herself through on the journey with some photos shown on video to break up the monologue.
Offering humorous observations punctuated with raw emotion, Audley finally realizes that she’s not having a good time on the endless drive, camping in various parks and finding that she likes herself less and less. Answers finally come when she realizes she needs to stop looking down the road for answers and to enjoy where she is now.
“Maybe the road less travelled isn’t traveled as much because it’s a bad road,” she quips. She’s filled with an overwhelming love for America and a desire to try to cross-country trip again
Highlights:
• Some fun humor
• Honesty in the questions she asks herself—and in the answers she gives
Lowlights:
• An annoying buzz in the speaker
• Would have preferred to see photos of the locations while she was talking about them instead of in between segments and as a collage at the end.
Christians might also like to know:
• Language
• God’s name taken in vain
