Product Information
When his friend and coworker suddenly dies, train enthusiast Finbar McBride (Peter Dinklage) inherits an abandoned railway station in rural New Jersey. A dwarf who avoids social contact whenever possible, Fin treks out to the property and moves in. However, his newly isolated life is disrupted by Joe (Bobby Cannavale), the outgoing operator of a roadside refreshment stand, and Olivia (Patricia Clarkson), a reclusive artist who is grieving the loss of her son. As Joe and Olivia slowly bring Fin out of his shell, all three people are affected by their newfound friendships.Written and directed by Thomas McCarthy, THE STATION AGENT wonderfully mixes drama and comedy in a beautiful countryside setting. Although the storyline acknowledges that the main character is a dwarf and refers to this on numerous occasions, there is much more to the character of Fin McBride than his short stature. As Fin, Dinklage gives an outstandingly nuanced performance, one that is perfectly complemented by Cannavale's happy-go-lucky Joe and Clarkson's mourning Olivia. The movie also features excellent supporting turns by Michelle Williams and Raven Goodwin. Touching but never sappy, THE STATION AGENT is a charming film that easily joins the ranks of other quirky rural dramas such as WHAT'S EATING GILBERT GRAPE? and THE STRAIGHT STORY.Product Identifiers

"THE STATION AGENT"
Was always fascinated by this movie. It just draws you in. I could watch it over and over. And the fact that you have the great young actor Bobby Cannavale who went on to do such great work in Boardwalk Empire and now HBO's Vinyl. And just look at the great cast in this small budget film. Patricia Clarkson, who I fell in love with as Kevin Costners pregnant wife in the remake of, "The Untouchables." Peter Dinklage of, "Game of Thrones." The beautiful Michelle Williams, Paul Benjamin with his memorable performance in, "Do The Right Thing." and John Slattery of the great Mad Men series. I love this film. But it's not for everyone. My brother hated it. I told him his punishment will be to watch over and over again until he sees the magic of this film.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

One of our favorite videos!!!
Station Agent is one of the most entertaining videos we own (and we own lots of videos). It's cute, fun, funny, and touching all in one video. The acting is brilliant in this video! And thank you, meltonrock, for sending us the copy that has close captioning on it! We had two other versions without close captioning and like to hear every word when we watch our nightly video! I would highly recommend this video to people of all ages. Each time my husband and I watch it, we comment that we wish it was longer -- it's that good!!!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

A little known gem...get to know this one!
The film that got Peter Dinklage recognized as an actor...and he was recently the 7th highest pai actor in a TV series at a million dollars per episode for Game of Thrones. Beautifully written...much in the vein of Baghdad Cafe or Rosalie Goes Shopping...for those who seek out great movies that are a bit out of the mainstream, this is recommended.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

One of Peter Dinklage's best!
A great character study! Also examines how friendships can grow among the strangest (and sometimes the harshest) of circumstances! One of Peter Dinklage's best!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Great exploration of friendship
This is a very slow paced movie exploring how friendships develop. No fast action and violence, just an exploration of how friendships came about. After watching the libraries copy, we bought a copy.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Entertaining and amusing
I have enjoyed this movie from the time at first came out. There’s something about the message of loneliness, forgiveness, and friendship that continues to give me enjoyment in watching it each year.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Named for a railroad position as Finn moved into a rail station.
The break out rile of Peter Dinkledge supported by a superb cast. A simple drama of out casts realizing there not so out cast.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
