Movies: The Station Agent

Watched this last night and really enjoyed it. The movie seems primarily to be an exploration of introversion (and silence) vs extroversion (and talking) and of friendship across the gap. All three of the main characters are excellent and their unusual 3-way friendship is very believable, despite their differences. ****

Also saw earlier this week Spartan (***), which has very good writing by Mamet but a few too many twists too it, and the Brazilian City of God (****) which was excellent.
