Train Dreams (2025) Review

Denis Johnson’s 2011 novella Train Dreams is a quietly epic and occasionally surreal story of the life of Robert Grainier, a self-described hermit who works on the American railroads around the turn of the 20th century. It was a beautiful and powerful piece of Americana and I absolutely loved it. So I was intrigued, and admittedly a bit worried, when I read it was being adapted for film.

Thankfully, the film manages to mostly live up to the high bar set by Johnson’s phenomenal novella and in some ways, even surpasses it.
