Station Agent
2003
***½
Director: Thomas McCarthy
Cast: Peter Dinklage, Patricia Clarkson, Bobby Cannavale, Paul Benjamin
Three disparate lonely souls - a worldweary dwarf, an outgoing young man and a grieving woman - become friends in the backwoods of New Jersey. This offbeat slice of life and its quirky characters have charm to spare, but the total is not quite the sum of its parts. The lead performances are all strong, however.
