The Station Agent
ComedyDrama89 min
Finbar McBride, a withdrawn man born with dwarfism, leaves after his only friend dies and settles into an abandoned train station in rural New Jersey, hoping to be left alone. Peter Dinklage is Fin, a railroad enthusiast whose plans for solitude keep getting interrupted by a relentlessly friendly hot dog vendor and Olivia, Patricia Clarkson’s nearby neighbor, who is carrying her own loss. As their paths keep crossing around the old train yard, front porches, and local streets, the film follows three isolated people feeling out the uneasy space between privacy and connection.
