The Station Agent (DVD, 2004)

"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.Read full review

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!!!Read full review

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.Read full review

What a wonderful story of how different personalities can make one sit down and try to figure out what will happen next. Caring, funny, serious, heartfelt. Awesome movie.

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!

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.

A quiet, charming story of 3 social misfits who find a way to become friends.

brand new dvd of a film I loved when it was in the theaters

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.

Station Agent review

Great movie. Very sensitive and intelligent.
Some slow moments but not meant to be a thriller.

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.
