The Station Agent
Beth and I stayed up too late last night to watch The Station Agent on cable, and I'm glad we did. I wanted to watch it mainly because I've liked Peter Dinklage on Threshold and
wanted to see the movie that made him famous. It's a slow-moving
character piece, but it was very captivating and kept my attention to
the end.
Here's a funny story about The Station Agent -- when I first heard about this movie (on NPR, probably), I must not have been playing attention because I was sure they said the movie was from Brazil! And I kept that "fact" in my mind for several years, until I started watching Threshold and realized that Peter Dinklage isn't Brazilian... but last night was when I learned that The Station Agent is set in exotic, far off land of New Jersey!
