This is from Evan Weinman:
I literally just finished watching The Station Agent and I wanted to give you my review of it while it was fresh on my mind. I want to start by saying The Station Agent was a very different movie than I’ve seen in a while and as a cinema studies major that is something hard to say. Peter Dinklage played a very fantastic role as a dwarf trying to live his life and who is dealing with loneliness in a very unique way, the people he meets and the situations that arise has almost a familiar feeling to anyone who has been alone and to a dark place without actually needing to relate to what is going on. This was a an indie flick and it made you feel like it was throughout the whole movie which, depending on the viewer could be a good thing or a bad thing. Although the movie felt slow at times it was done in such a good way you could deal with some of the parts. There were some scenes that popped up and went and way and were never explained which didn’t make sense. I also wish they would have explored Michelle Williams role a little bit more, just as you’re getting into her and Fin’s love connection it never leads any where. Overall this was a good movie, it was heart warming and you get to learn and little about trains and none about blimps! I rate 3 out of 5 stars.

About

The Clandestine Movie Club was started in September 2009, by Pete Wentz and Jensen Karp of Clandestine Industries, in hopes of shedding light on some movies that might not have gotten the attention or accolades they deserved during their time of release. Focusing on heartfelt and inspiring movies, one rentable film will be picked every few months to discuss and analyze here on this blog. The more you participate, the better, because rewards could be on their way. We ask that you participate by commenting, engaging or even writing essays that we can publish on the site, by emailing them to jensen@clanmovieclub.com. For each film a limited edition Clandestine Movie Club t-shirt will be released inspired by the film we chose. You do not have to buy the shirt to participate though, so we hope to get as much involvement from you guys as humanly possible! And we'll see you at the movies!
