When his only friend dies, a young dwarf named Finbar McBride (Peter Dinklage) 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 his colorful neighbors, which include a struggling artist (Patricia Clarkson) coping with the recent death of her young son and a talkative Cuban hot dog vendor (Bobby Cannavale).
A new favorite movie. I haven't laughed at a movie like this since i first saw lebowski. There is a amazing chemistry between the characters despite how lonely they all are. There is lots of little nuances that entertain without being "quirky". Bobby Cannaval should have won an oscar for best supporting actor or something. Filled with amazing shots of trains stuff that make me want to learn about trains.

Juno Jason Reitman
Facing an unplanned pregnancy, teenage Juno (Ellen Page) devises a plan to locate the proverbial perfect parents to adopt her baby. But the seemingly ideal couple Juno chooses still has some growing up to do. Now, everyone in Juno's world must do a little soul-searching. Michael Cera co-stars while Jason Bateman and Jennifer Garner play the pair of affluent yuppies anxious for a child in this offbeat coming-of-age comedy, which won the 2008 Oscar for Best Original Screenplay.
This super hyped up movies, by pretty much all types, ages, and sexes of people, which i thought was fairly strange before seeing the movie, and even stranger now that i have. I love the very natural acting, and the few funny parts, but i am overwhelmed by the huge amount of name drops and weird hip language. Still not bad for a screenplay written by a stripper.
