A very poignant and moving movie. The story is about a loaner who seems to live only for trains. He inherits an abandoned train station in Newfoundland, NJ. He aspires to be alone with his trains and books, but fate brings into his life a distraught young female and a bon vivant hot dog vendor.

I would recommend this movie to practically anyone who likes sweetness, kindness, and man's/woman's humanity to man. The movie is replete with various interesting characters, from the beautiful librarian, her abusive boyfriend, an elementary school girl named Chloe, and a rather boorish convenience store owner.

I enjoyed the movie because I am a huge fan of Catalina. She is exceptionally talented, very sensuous, and a joy to behold, no matter what role she portrays.

The movie is quite slow at times, but periodiaclly the tedium is interrupted by some excellent action scenes.
