Review of The Station Agent (2003) by Jens S — 15 Aug 2012
After little man and train fanatic Finbar (Peter "Tyrion Lannister" Dinklage) inherits an old train station house, he slowly has to abandon his solitude and deal with the quirky new neighbors and unexpected visitors.
The lovely story of three unlikely outsiders becoming friends is told with a really sweet sense of humor and carried by three very convincing acting performances. Although there actually isn't much happening besides conversations and walks through rural New Jersey train tracks, it's really entertaining and enchanting.
The movie flows really nicely but ends rather suddenly, as if we only had the pleasure to observe their lives for a short period of time. Which is a little sad, it would have been nice to follow those characters around a little longer.
Still, a film that beams a had a smile on your face for 90 minutes.
