My New Favorite Movie

Last month when my hubby and I were picking movie to give to our Grandma Hollis, he was so excited to see the Rain Man movie on sale. He told me that he like this movie so much and wanted to get it. I didn't care...besides this movie was filmed 20 years ago. I saw Tom Cruise as one of the main actor in the movie but that was it. I had no clue what was the story all about.

I thought that "Rain Man" was a scary movie. I thought when it rains, the man will show up. I was wrong, yes I was and I was definitely wrong! I would say, Rain Man is my latest favorite movie. Last week, my hubby told me that we are going to watch the "Rain Man" that night. I joined him..at first it wasn't very interesting and Tom Cruise was a Punk.

But after few minutes the story become exciting. I didn't want to missed every single scenes. Saturday evening after my hubby and I went out for a dinner date I asked him if we can watch this movie again. I told you...this is now my latest favorite movie. This movie made me think of "Am I my brother's keeper?".

The Wikipedia says, Rain Man is a 1988 dramatic film written by Barry Morrow and Ronald Bass and directed by Barry Levinson. It tells the story of an abrasive, selfish yuppie, Charlie Babbitt, who discovers that his father has left all of his multimillion-dollar estate to his brother, Raymond, of whose existence he knew nothing and who is an autistic savant.

The movie stars Tom Cruise as Charlie Babbit, Dustin Hoffman as Raymond Babbit, and Valeria Golino as Charlie's girlfriend, Susanna. Morrow created the character of Raymond after meeting Kim Peek, a real-life savant; his characterization was based on both Peek and Bill Sackter, a good friend of Morrow who was the subject of Bill, an earlier film that Morrow wrote.

Well, if you get a chance to watch this movie...I difinitely recommended!
