The Station Agent (2003)

THE STATION AGENT (seen on 5-2-09) - a Netflix movie
It's about a much despised dwarf who is an object of fun wherever he goes. The movie sets him down in a remote New Jersey village where a clutch of simple people strike friendship with the dwarf whom every body avoids normally. Thus they discover for us the humanity of this object of ridicule and laughter.
We liked it for its simplicity and originality and difference.
"When his only friend dies, a young dwarf named Finbar McBride relocates to an abandoned train station in rural New Jersey, intent on living the life of a hermit. But his solitude is soon interrupted by some of his decent simple neighbors who include a talkative Cuban..." Their friendship with him is touching.
