Fin, born with dwarfism, always tried to live a nice and quiet life. And when his friend dies and he inherits an abandoned train depot in New Jersey, he decides to move there. Without much interest to meet new people, he just can’t avoid the contact with some of the people in his new town. And when a woman accidently tries to run him over (twice), he starts to find the people that somehow share his solitude.

This was the first time I saw Peter Dinklage in a big role and I must say it was kind of a surprise. It's not that you think people with dwarfism can't play great roles, it's more like you don't expect them to. Or better yet, Hollywood doesn't give them the opportunity to. Have some slow moments in your movie? Call for a dwarf, right? That will bring in some laughs.

When you watch Peter Dinklage, you start to forget about his size, until the movie brings it up again. Which of course, makes you root for him if some people start talking about the 7 dwarfs in his presence. And you can imagine Dinklage to have some baggage to play this part. He shows us that there's nothing wrong with wanting to be left alone. You have these moments where you don't want to be bothered, but we're all human and sometimes we have to make that connection. And this is how some unrelated people accidently meet in their solitude and build up a friendship.

Telling you this story, it may sound like a pretty serious drama. However, the movie actually is quite quirky and warm. But as I said, watch this movie for Dinklage. A very charismatic, interesting and talented actor, who makes this good movie great.

Saw this movie too? Rate it!
