The Station Agent (2003)
A film festival fave and winner of the audience prize at Sundance, this quiet little film depicts the coming together in their loneliness of a dwarf (Peter Dinklage), a woman grieving the death of her son (Patricia Clarkson), and a Cuban refreshment stand operator (Bobby Cannavale). Dinklage has inherited a redundant rail station and the others gradually find communion in his train-spotting hobby. There is the odd bit of drama and a great deal of sweet humour, but not much more. One just enjoys one's time in their company.
