Never really understood why the film was called Rain. Like it never rains. Sorry if I'm a bit slow here...
A touching and moving story, enigmatic and atmospheric.
Rather too much time spent on describing the lifestyle of the family: alcoholic mum, 70s parties etc. but does get going and provides a thought-provoking conclusion.
If you like this then I'd recommend "Whale Rider" which is altogether a stronger movie.
if so, I would like to see some more!
The only 5 star movie so far for me.
It's a coming of age drama with a great performance from the young female lead.
Beautiful NZ scenery, strong storyline, moving and memorable. Watched it a second time before returning the DVD.
Enjoyed this movie greatly. It's thought provoking and beautiful. It's a coming of age drama, a romance, a story set in troubled times and an insight into rural China a few decades ago.
The poster looks good but the movie disappoints.
Echoes of Chocolat but just too weak.
Nicely shot and sweet. Try this one if you liked "Cave of the Yellow Dog". Yellow Dog is better though - more happens and even better photography.
Both movies are artistically presented insights into an unfamiliar culture and are worth watching for this reason alone.
