Starring Joel Edgerton in a career-defining performance as Robert Grainier, a logger and railroad worker navigating the shifting American landscape of the early 20th century, Train Dreams is a meditative journey through a life shaped by love, loss, nature, and change. As the world modernizes around him, Grainier’s quiet resilience and inner life unfold with unexpected emotional depth.
The film also features a stellar supporting cast including Felicity Jones, Nathaniel Arcand, Clifton Collins Jr., John Diehl, Paul Schneider, Kerry Condon, and William H. Macy. The poetic narrative is further elevated by the voice of Will Patton, who narrates Grainier’s epic, contemplative journey.
Directed by Clint Bentley (Jockey), and co-written with longtime collaborator Greg Kwedar, Train Dreams is a love letter to a vanishing America, a story that captures not just the transformation of a country, but the inner transformation of a man. The film is underscored by a soul-stirring original score composed by Bryce Dessner (The Two Popes, Cyrano), adding a haunting emotional resonance to the film’s quiet power.
With sweeping cinematography and lyrical storytelling, Train Dreams is positioned as one of Netflix’s most prestige offerings of the year — a contemplative, slow-burning masterpiece that blends intimate character study with epic American imagery.
