Movie Review of "Rain Man"

 

                                                Tom Cruise           Dustin Hoffman

I would like to introduce Rain Man. Rain Man is an American movie released in 1988. The production company is United Artists Corporation and the director is Barry Levinson. The main characters in the movie are Charlie Babbitt played by Tom Cruise and Raymond Babbitt with autistic savant played by Dustin Hoffman. The movie won the 61st Academy Awards, the 46th Golden Globe Awards and the 39th Berlin International Film Festival and made $354million at the worldwide box office.


What is Rain Man? I thought when I saw the title of this movie. Charlie said "Rain Man sang a song when he was scared. But it's an imaginary friend and this is a story from childhood." Is Rain Man really an imaginary friend? and Why did Rain Man disappear? This doubt will be solved in the middle of the story. This movie is a heartwarming story of an older brother, Raymond, with autistic savant and his younger brother Charlie.



My impression of the movie is that this isn't a sad story, It's a touching story. Raymond has autistic savant. I didn't know much about autistic savant. It is difficult for them to communicate with people. But they are blessed with exceptional ability. I was surprised at Raymond's exceptional ability. At first Charlie couldn't understand Raymond but spending time with Raymond changed his feelings steadily. I learned the importance of respecting each other after watching Rain Man. I recommend this movie to everyone.
