Review of Rain

Rain (I) (2001)
8/10
Boredom leads to bad behavior.
11 August 2006
Warning: Spoilers
First of all, the words "Martin Scorsese presents" lured me in. This dark movie is written and directed by Katherine Lindberg. The action or lack thereof takes place in farming country Iowa. What else is there to do besides count the many trains that run through this small sleepy drought stricken community. Paul Biddle has been 'carrying on' with Sheriff Gibson's(Jamie Sheridan)wife Patsy(Jo Anderson). Ellen Biddle(Melora Walters)decides to put a rifle bullet through her cheating husband's head and allures the town's bad boy druggie Richard(Kris Park)to dispose of the body. Richard just happens to be the Sheriff's son. Sheriff Gibson fears that the strange actions of his wife and the misbehavior of his son will harm his chances of winning the election for mayor. There are still secrets to be revealed and more serious misdeeds. Nudity and sexual content earns an R rating. Also in the cast: Ellen Muth, Ezra Buzzington, Adrian Johansson and Diane Ladd.
