The movie offi- cially opens in that theater on November 26. The November 28 screening will feature a question-and- answer session with produc- ers May and Kathryn Tucker, both of SenArt Films. The Station Agent is “a beautifully-made comic dra- ma that mixes warmth, emo- tional sophistication and dead on deadpan humor” (Los Angeles Times) that tells the story of three people with nothing in common ex- cept their desire for solitude — until chance circum- stances bring their lives together. The film has gained critical reviews and garnered eight awards to date, including the coveted Audience Award at the Sun- dance Film Festival. Elvis Mitchell of The New York Times calls it “hilarious and thoughtful — this is the kind of movie you want to share with others!” “The Station Agent” was produced by the Pennsylvania-based SenArt Films, whose other projects include “Stevie,” cally-acclaimed film by Academy Award-nominated director Steve James, and the upcoming “The Fog.of War,” a film by Er- rol Morris, opening on December 26 and being released by Sony Picture Classics.
